I have had the privilege of reading
the thread authored by @tweetsfromstar but I
differ on following reasonings & add some observations on
the maintainability of my standpoint.
#Integration is a subjective matter. Every society & religion has their own integration standards.
You can't integrate a #Woman wearing a #bikini 👙 in #Afghanistan🇦🇫 or #Pakistan🇵🇰?
Attaching sufferance to #Hijab while pressing #burka or #niqab as an oppression is a sanctimony towards hijab on your part.
It's the same to assert that #Kalashnikov can be integrated but the #G3 cannot be integrated despite the fact that both are destructive and pose threat.
Neither #Hijab nor #burka is a choice, both are enforced through coercion, fear or at least to say childhood indoctrination.

Surely every serious national security strategist understands the distinction btwn Govts Geopolitical decisions and th military's detailed scenario planning & action program. A govt can decided on basis of expected value of outcome or worst case scenarios-the latter is paralyzing
2/ns The critical issue in China-India conflict is that,as of now (2020), #China controls the #escalatory ladder. So India's #National #Security Apparatus has to make assumptions about when and how #CCPpla will escalate, if it loses the first few steps on its escalatory ladder!
3/ns The worst case scenario for us is therefore the one in which after loosing previous escalations, #CCP China escalates to a full fledged war/attack on India, by shifting US-facing troops and highest quality equipment towards India. This has proved paralyzing for past Govts!🤔

"Temporary cessation" Who are you kidding?
Its a fucking ban.
MDN is the only NGO that works as an HRD on the most sensitive HR issues in Maldives.
The govt has succumbed to the pressure from local terrorists - much of those are allegedly revealed in the controversial report.
The #Maldives govt has failed to take action against those who spread hate and threaten people behind a religious facade.
"The maintenance of public order and communal harmony"... what a load of crap!
The govt has effectively #empowered the #terrorists by banning the only HRD NGO who dared assess the rising #extremism and #radicalism in #Maldives.
Now the terrorists are attacking whoever who recognised the NGO's sincere work since 2004.

1/6 This is a #thread about turning the most bitter of lemons into sweet lemonade, about believing in taking small steps to making big dreams come true.
I feel #grateful. I feel #empowered.
Read on and share in my happiness, a feeling that has a whole new meaning. I'll explain.
2/6 Bitter lemons: My husband’s death of pancreatic cancer on Nov. 1, 2017, 30 days after his diagnosis. He was 46. We had been together for almost 19 years. Our daughter was 8. His name was Mike Saucier, but his close friends called him Sauce.
3/6 A year ago, my good friends Tom and Andrea and I created The Sauce Foundation to raise money for scholarships at @Cronkite_ASU and pancreatic cancer research at @TGen. I didn’t know how to ask others for money (or help, for that matter), but I was willing to give it a try.
