Aussi longtemps que Macron recycle des politiciens usés et datés le résultat restera le même !
An excellent YouTube interview w/ @ImranKhanPTI’s sister, Aleem Khan @Aleema_KhanPK, on Australia’s ABC tv station.

If they haven’t yet done so, Australia & other Commonwealth countries must make representations to the Govt of #Pakistan.

Great little article—also known by some as a ‘piece’, by ⁦‪@pilitaclark‬⁩ about the use of meaningless words to hide the inability to find the correct word to use!

Muddled writing reflects muddled thinking!

What is happening in #Pakistan is MASSIVE!

The tsunami of national support for the release of @Imran KhanPTI is quite simply incredible! The military-supported govt of @PmShabazShariff cannot ignore this genuine national popular movement.

The status quo will no longer work!
Hy Mare Pakistan 💔💔

Excellent piece by Emile Hokayem @emile-hokayem.bsky.social on the situation in #Syria. #President Bashar-al-Assad, aka the butcher of Syria, is hoping to benefit from today’s turmoil in the Middle-East. But the future may not be so kind to him…
