Hosting Iran talks not without peril and cost for Pakistan open.substack.com/pub/kathygan...

As I said earlier Pakistan as the mediator kinda made sense It took awhile and it’s a temporary cease fire but it seems the art of the deal has moved to Islamabad kathygannon.substack.com/p/pakistan-n...

As Pakistan says its in 'open war' with Afghan, repression of its own journalists increasing, reports @kathygannon.bsky.social kathygannon.substack.com/p/muzzling-o...

Our world has much to worry about with a global leadership today defined by male toxicity combined with mediocre intelligence . open.substack.com/pub/kathygan...

Our world has much to worry about with a global leadership today defined by male toxicity combined with mediocre intelligence . Sadly for me there isn’t a combined intelligence in today’s leadership sufficient to understand the need for new narratives, let alone think of them.

Curious why U.S. tennis players in the Australian open are allowed to play under their flag despite taking over one country and threatening another? Yet Russians are denied playing under their flag, Double standards have become so acceptable and normalised that we have even stopped questioning it.

The reopening of US and Western embassies in Afghanistan can empower Afghans. This isn’t about wanting foreign intervention again. Absolutely not. Rather it is about helping Afghans feel connected to the broader world. Hope can be a powerful catalyst for change. open.substack.com/pub/kathygan...

Fox News’ Chief National Security Correspondent. We are about to go to war for oil, while citing a lie as justification. Again.

The crime of one Afghan has been used to paint all Afghans with the same brush, to see all Afghans through the prism of a shooter, who shares their nationality. Imagine if that same practice of painting everyone with the same brush was applied to Americans. open.substack.com/pub/kathygan...

The latest fighting between Pakistan and Afghanistan has been fierce, but it's not new and unlikely to end until the disputed Durand Line, which separates the two nations, is replaced by an internationally recognized border. The same is true of Pakistan and India. open.substack.com/pub/kathygan...

Returning to Afghanistan presents countless opportunities to support Afghan women, but not if these countries, as it was the case with India at the press conference in Delhi, deprioritize women’s rights. open.substack.com/pub/kathygan...

Hallelujah: Israeli hostages are coming home and Israeli bombs that have killed tens of thousands of Palestinians have stopped but to ignore history’s lesson that there can be no peace without justice is certain to deny both Israelis and Palestinians lasting peace. open.substack.com/pub/kathygan...

Sure America used Afghanistan's Bagram Air Base for renditions, torture and the illegal detainment of hundreds, perhaps 1000s of Afghans, but it never belonged to America to "take back". open.substack.com/pub/kathygan...

Loving this !! More of this please. Of course America is going back to the Stone Age so it will have to come from the rest of the world 🌍 🌎 #SystemicRacismIsRealAndWrong #WomensRightsAreHumanRights

Mariam was killed by Israel along with four other journalists for telling the story of the horrors Israel is inflicting on Gaza and Gazans. Yes the photos are graphic . Imagine that is your life . Imagine those are your children. Please don’t look away apnews.com/photo-galler...

Israel has slaughtered another four journalists in Gaza How is this allowed to continue? No accountability Just a continuation by Israel of the slaughter This must stop

BBC News hour carried a portion of an essay I wrote after returning to Afghanistan after nearly three years. I was grateful they asked to use it It’s at about the 22:17 mark but only if you have a moment bbc.com/audio/play/w...

The road to hell is paved with good intentions. Just ask the tens of thousands of Afghans living in refugee hell in Pakistan abandoned by their “foreign friends” who urged, even aided their evacuation from Afghanistan following the return in 2021 of the Taliban. open.substack.com/pub/kathygan...

wrote this nearly three weeks ago. Repeating to add the latest Israeli murder of our PALESTINIAN COLLEAGUES fills me with such sadness and anger This must stop. open.substack.com/pub/kathygan...

I want to say it as clear and unambiguous as possible: The U.S. and Israeli administrations are killing Gazans through starvation, knowingly and intentionally, lying to push forward their agenda to clear Gaza of Gazans either by death or relocation. open.substack.com/pub/kathygan...

Just to say Lord Thomson of Fleet and I both had our start in my hometown of Timmins, a lovely mining town in northern Ontario. I worked at the Timmins Daily Press and he bought it. He went on to be a media mogul and i got to witness history and meet so many truly extraordinary people. Yaay me

A U.S. citizen who was arrested for filming an ICE raid at Home Depot is suing the federal government for $1 million— and I hope he gets every penny. THIS‼️ When being transported, Garcia heard agents boasting about how many ‘bodies’ they had gotten that day and saw them celebrate with high fives.

Syrian forces massacred 1,500 Alawites in March. The chain of command led to Damascus. A Reuters investigation found 40 distinct sites of killings, looting and arson during three days of sectarian massacres following an Assad loyalist insurgency. www.reuters.com/investigatio...

Iran was negotiating when Israel carried out an unprovoked attack. Now U.S. bombs Iran to come to the negotiation table . It is capitulation that is being demanded not negotiations. If this is now our definition of negotiation I assume it then is an acceptable definition for Russia in Ukraine ?

Some analyst said the west does not understand the Persian pride that defines Iranians and it made me think: Iran has pride, which is rooted in the centuries old Persian culture while America has arrogance and pride in their arrogance. It’s a big difference but does explain Trump

Pakistan recommends a Nobel Peace Prize for Donald Trump as Israel carries out a brutal assault on Gaza killing tens of thousands spurred on by Trump, who sees Gaza as prize real estate. This recommendation doesn’t reflect the sentiments expressed by Pakistanis, not by a long shot

And to add to the horror is the fear folks feel for even speaking out against it because the silence is deafening open.substack.com/pub/kathygan...

@cnn.com Is discussing Trump’s nonsense about Canada a 51st state . What I would like to say is learn respect America. You respect yourselves but you seem incapable of understanding how disrespectful you sound when discussing others.
