    The Pakistan government says one of my old tweets violated a crime that comes with the death penalty - and Twitter is acting as its messenger:https://torontosun.com/opinion/columnists/furey-the-pakistan-government-doesnt-like-one-of-my-old-tweets-and-twitter-passed-along-the-message …

        I'm going to respectfully take an alternative view here Anthony. I think it is *imperative* that Twitter does notify you, especially when it is taking no action. Otherwise, you could travel to Pakistan blissfully unaware and be arrested for a capital offence.

        Obliquely in the penultimate paragraph maybe. The thrust of the article and certainly the headline is somewhat different. Nonetheless, it was an interesting post.

        Sad we see stores like @hudsonsbay selling goods from a place where discrimination against minorities is a public policy. A shame a once (not anymore) great store is snow a shill for goods made by dictatorships/tyrants,guess I will have to shop elsewhere.https://www.opendoorsusa.org/christian-persecution/stories/5-things-christians-need-to-know-about-asia-bibi-and-the-church-in-pakistan/ …

        I'm still and always have been confused by 'our' sudden embrace of these countries. They're little more than dictatorships where women and the meek are treated like cattle to the slaughter. Very confusing and to be honest,very odd.

        It's a strange lie that's been perpetuated for decades,all for the benefit of cheap goods and labor(unless of course there is some grand contribution beyond that I'm not yet aware of) Maybe I'm just not getting the bigger picture 🤔

        I think maybe you are at least starting to look for the bigger picture which is promising. Start with the latest tripe from the UN.

        Awesome, Well Done!! Meanwhile, here in Calgary @TheRebelTV @3conomic is hot on the trail of Pakistani national Nimra Amjad, who broke Canadian election laws and then became a Canadian citizen. I want her #Deported back where she came from and jail for everyone who helped her.

        Just stay in the part controlled by India, where you can shout “Kashmir belongs to India!” — then wait for a notice from Twitter legal that you upset the Pakistani government.
