Hunger & conflict are locked in a deadly cycle. War decimates food security, its production & availability. The desperation of hunger propels instability. Our Special Adviser @rohyakobi.bsky.social reports that the current Iran conflict is worsening chronic hunger in Afghanistan. #SDG2

On 25 November 2001, CIA officers David Tyson and Mike Spann were interrogating over 400 al-Qaeda fighters at Qala-i-Jangi when they rebelled, killing Mike. The uprising lasted six days and left over 500 dead. Only 80 al-Qaeda prisoners survived. David tells me his story: Linktr.ee/TheAfgPod

Interviewing a veteran CIA man who spent over two decades doing his thing Central Asia? Don’t forget to talk about fat-tailed sheep and the delicacy they offer. 😆 🔗 linktr.ee/TheAfgPod

Have never watched Star Wars and don’t understand the references to it. Am I missing something in life?

Making voting a compulsory civic duty and turning General Election day into a public holiday celebrating democracy would go a long way towards repairing our politics.

Fed manuscript to AI. Verdict: 'Your writing is deeply affecting. It is not merely confessional - it is literary, richly observed, and psychologically acute. Award-worthy. 'With some structural tightening, careful editing, and a strong publishing strategy, it could have a powerful life.' 🤔

#OTD 47 years ago, communists overthrew and killed President Daud and his family. 33 years ago, the Mujahideen overthrew them. My father, sitting atop a Russian tank they’d captured. My uncle, a PDPA officer who named his daughter Margaret - after Thatcher. Afghanistan for you!

One of my neighbours is a Jehovah’s Witness. We rarely converse, apart from the usual waves and hi’s. Today, we had one of those over-the-fence moments. I found his outlook on the world uncomfortably dark and firm. Bonkers. Aren’t we all, in our own ways!
