India lied about Pakistan’s involvement in Pahalgam. India lied about attacking “terrorists” as it murdered children. India lied about attacking terror camps as it attacked mosques and civilians. India lied about wanting peace in the region. A narrative built on blatant lies.

As things seemingly cool down & we return to our domestic realities, there has to be more reflection & lessons learnt about what happened over the last few days. At a time of extreme domestic polarisation, we saw when faced with external aggression, there was internal cohesion🧵

Dissenting judges have been removed from benches, some excluded from the Constitutional Bench altogether, and now dissents are to be kept in the dark unless approved by the head of the bench. The post 26th amendment judiciary and its unending disasters: dawn.com/news/1910712

14,000 babies in Gaza will die if Israel doesn’t allow aid in in the next 24 hrs. FOURTEEN THOUSAND BABIES. We have never witnessed evil such as Israel. I keep saying it, but what do you call a state that ban an incubators & baby formula from entering Gaza?

PM "Shehbaz Sharif said that Operation Bunyanum Marsoos was 'divine retribution' for 1971." "We must not let triumphalism and hyperbole cloud our view of history, particularly of an event as traumatic as the separation of the eastern wing." dawn.com/news/1913016

In Gaza, they’re burning children alive. In Jerusalem, they’re chanting ‘Death to Arabs’ In the West Bank, they’re terrorizing Palestinians to force them off their land. What more do you need to see before admitting Israel’s goal is eradicating Palestinian existence?

On how dangerous ideals of the “perfect victim” still dominate our response to cases of gender-based violence. Judges do not sit in courtrooms to judge the morality of a victim or give sermons on ethics. images.dawn.com/news/1193678/f…

"It is indefensible that responses to violence against women continue to be dominated by dangerous ideals of the “perfect victim”. The victim’s character is made a central topic in courtrooms." Must read by Rida Hosain on gender "in-sensitive" courts. images.dawn.com/news/1193678/f…

Tomorrow at 7pm (Friday June 6), I will be joined by Sara Malkani & Rida Hosain to discuss the usual responses every time a woman is killed: harsher punishments, more laws. We'll discuss the systemic issues that remain unaddressed each time this happens. facebook.com/BoloBhi

The craziest thing about this Trump/Musk drama is that Israel is blocking food from entering Gaza, threatening to starve an entire population.

On the day Israel, unprovoked, has attacked Iran, killing 80 people, the president of a major European power, finally admits that in the Middle East, Israel, and only Israel, has the right to defend itself.
