1. Disclosure: I am on record as having said Statecraft is very hard. So critique of #Eritrea prez is within context of “statecraft is hard, but he makes it harder.” Let’s discuss today’s show (not interview) whose topics covered role of investment, including FDI, in economy.
2. Of the many levers used for economic development and which ones to prioritize, choosing is hard because everything is a priority in subsistence economies. Economics not being a hard science (and even its social science status being questionable) it’s a lot of trial and error.
3. In #Eritrea, it’s all trial and all error because this not-really-a-science field (economics) is at the mercy of another not-really-a-science field (politics) which, being authoritarian cronyism, is less capable of auto-correcting. For example:

1. Alors que les FARDC repoussent le M23 et gagnent du terrain en territoire de Masisi, les autorités Congolaises acceptent l’imposition d’un nouveau cessez-le-feu immédiat.

How ISLAMIZATION occurs when
there are sufficient MUSLIMS in a country.... #Thread

When culturally diverse societies agree to 'the reasonable'
Muslim demands for their 'religious rights,' they also get the other components under
the table. Here's how it works...👇🏻👇🏻 Image
📍 As long as the Muslim population remains around 1% of any given country they will
be regarded as a peace-loving minority and not as a threat to anyone.

(#UnitedStates --1.0%; #Australia --1.5%; #Canada --1.9%; #China --1%-2%; #Italy --1.5%;
#Norway --1.8%)
📍 At 2% and 3% Muslims begin to proselytize from other ethnic minorities and disaffected
groups with major recruiting from the jails and among street gangs.

(#Denmark --2%;
#Germany --3.7%; #UnitedKingdom --2.7%; #Spain --4%; #Thailand --4.6%)

👉 @ImranKhanPTI says of the UK authorities in the new film:

“They are benefiting from billions of dollars which flow into their properties and their businesses stolen from this country.”

He opens up about trying to stop “this plunder of the poor countries” by corrupt elites.
👉 The film also features a possible coup by BP in #Azerbaijan.

Emin Huseynov, a journalist who fled fearing for his life, says -- “The political opposition has always said BP was responsible for the [1993] coup, they brought Heydar Aliyev to power.”
