Despite ongoing protest of human rights defenders and politicians from aggrieved provinces, #EnforcedDisappearances have increased in Balochistan, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Sindh, Gilgit-Baltistan and even in Pak administered Kashmir. This #thread will compile the cases. End impunity.

Being signed on June 19? And what’s today, 15th? Aah well, that’s enough time for Israel to wreck the US-Iran “understanding”. Pardon my pessimism. And I do hope and pray from every fiber of my being that I prove wrong on this.

Wasn’t a rocket science. Israel had to do it after yesterday’s news about an imminent US-Iran deal. By talking peace, they are forcing Israel’s hand. As the great Golda Meir said, “We cannot forgive them for forcing us to kill their children”.
It’s never Israel’s fault. Ever. If you think so, you’re an anti-Semite.
