This war is keenly being watched by many players.
My assessment is that at the end of the day everything revolves around money, and where there is money there is power.
Beware of the military industrial complex, they want nothing but war.

DG ISPR conference was lit. The role definitely suits Ahmed Sharif.

If only they wouldn’t have been involved with what has been happening for the past 3 years, the sorrow inside me wouldn’t exist.

Al -Jubeir will meet Pakistani Deputy Prime Minister, Isaac, at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and will also meet with high Pakistani leaders.

Well forced to land at least.
