Strait Harmuz

Why is Closure Considered Possible (though unlikely long-term)? In Summary: The closure of the Strait of Hormuz would be an unparalleled economic and geopolitical shock.

While perhaps not permanently sustainable for any actor, even a temporary closure would have devastating global consequences. It remains the single most significant potential flashpoint for the…

Munir’s journey to Washington

But Munir’s journey to Washington wasn’t to reminisce over old alliances. He came to renew vows—between client and master, between gun and gold. And the message he delivered was crisp, calculated, and unmistakable: Pakistan remains a subcontractor for American power, ever willing to whisper verses of moral clarity in public while striking Faustian bargains in private. Take Gaza. As Israeli bombs pummel a besieged population and Western leaders squirm under the weight of their own hypocrisy, Islamabad offers its routine package of condemnations—pre-written, perfunctory, and purposely ineffectual. Munir’s regime weeps…

India is reportedly moving forward with a massive plan to construct 10 new mega hydropower projects in Ladakh, strategically placed to control the headwaters of the Indus River. Projects like Achinathang-Sanjak, Pharphila, Sumda (Batalik), and Khaltsi may be marketed as progress—but in reality, they pose a serious risk to the region’s water security.
