    Good overview by et al. of the economic dilemmas facing oil producing countries w/all the talk of 'net zero' emissions.That said, I see a huge amount of inertia built into current systems to enable substantial reduction in fossil fuel demand

    Great thread here on an example of how solar power works in practice: a potentially positive development but also bearing its own drawbacks and environmental costs:

    THREAD: I decided to look into solar power in January this year, having long skirted Lebanon’s private generator scam. The system finally is up, and has enlightened more than my flat, by yielding unexpected, humbling lessons

    Also, what's the point of the North Korea analogy? Plenty of people/observers refer to the country by its official name: The Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK). But its governing ideology is Juche.

    So if it is not Islamic, what is it? The previous government called itself an 'Islamic republic': should people have refrained from referring to it as such? Or Iran's 'Islamic republic'? What is an 'Islamic government' can incorporate a range of outlooks

    To all my colleagues in the media: please don't call the new Taliban government in Afghanistan "Islamic". Please. 🙏🏽

    I am begging people to stop listening to this. First step of learning a lesson from these last 20 years is to stop listening to the ‘turning a corner/could’ve just stayed who cares what the Afghans do’ experts who have been wrong for these last 20 years.

    Most debatable claim in remarks is US choice in Afghanistan was to leave or "commit tens of thousands of more troops going back to war." There was a 3rd choice: to stay as we were as costs of mil presence had gone down b/c of previous troop reductions & end of combat ops.

    Thank you “Later in life, when illusions have faded, the heroes you once worshipped have long betrayed you, and the ideals you swam across shark-infested waters for vanished in smoke, your dreams are flailing visions in a cracked rearview mirror.”

    Also, an old video, but really timeless when I think of the legacies of 9/11 and the wars and militarisation/securitisation of foreign policy. Speech by back in 2017 as part of Veterans for Peace

    The literature on jihadist governance has heavily relied on Aymenn's free-of-charge contributions for years. Time to give back.

    A reasonable step, and in my view, quite overdue. There is never a need to apologize to anyone when you are producing value-added material.
