🎙️ During the recording of the Dr Ayaz Safi Podcast, I posed a question to our geopolitical expert, Mr Mushtaq Rahim, regarding Pakistan’s unjust strikes in Afghanistan and their targeted messaging, which mentioned an individual being “on the other side of the Durand Line.”

By slip of the tongue, I said “border” instead of “Durand Line.” Mr Mushtaq immediately corrected me — “It’s the Durand Line, Safi Sahib — that’s how we recognise it.”

Although it was just a small verbal mistake, his quick and firm response filled me with renewed hope. It reminded me that as long as there is even one true Afghan, there will always be Afghanistan.

Today, when I heard that Qatar initially used the word “border” but later corrected it following the strong reaction from Afghans, it reinforced that same feeling that awareness, unity, and conviction are growing.

The episode will be released soon stay tuned. 🇦🇫

Pakistan has a documented history of not merely harbouring terrorists, but actively providing safe havens and training facilities. The most glaring example? Osama bin Laden was found and killed in Abbottabad, Pakistan, miles away from Pakistan Army camp.

Given this and many more track records, Pakistan cannot credibly accuse Afghanistan of harbouring terrorists whilst simultaneously violating international law and Afghan sovereignty. Afghanistan has every right to defend itself and to retaliate through the means available now.

Pakistan would do well to remember that it may find itself indebted to Afghanistan for its restraint.

The Taliban’s decision to cut off internet access is more than just a restriction of technology, it is an assault on freedom, knowledge, and the basic rights of people to connect with the world. In today’s era, the internet is not a luxury; it is a lifeline for education, health, business, and for many, the only way to stay in touch with loved ones.

Cutting people off from this lifeline is not just uncivilised, it is cruel. It silences voices, erases opportunities, and deepens isolation. A generation already suffering from restrictions on education, especially women and girls, now faces further darkness by being cut off from global dialogue, information, and hope.

A society cannot move forward by building walls of ignorance. True leadership is about empowering people, not depriving them of their most basic tools to survive and thrive in the modern world.

The internet is more than wires and screens, it is connection, opportunity, and freedom. To take it away is to take away dignity itself.
