The Silent Flight That Landed Without Life
The plane appeared out of nowhere. It was late evening. The sky was turning dark, and airport lights were shining like stars on the ground. Air traffic controllers were talking to normal flights, guiding them one by one, when suddenly a small dot appeared on the radar screen.

A Deep Dive Into Puerto Rico's History
Last night, we were treated to an amazing Super Bowl, the 60th edition of the big extravaganza. The Bay Area hosted the game, which was won by the Seattle Seahawks, but the centerpiece of the event was the halftime show. The main performer was Bad Bunny, who I've been a fan of for a few years now, and he showed out, because he always does. I absolutely enjoyed the halftime show, and I definitely wasn't alone, as I was one of 130 million viewers who drank in Bad Bunny's performance.

The Rise and Fall of Samson. AI-Generated.
Once, a young man walked the earth, and the earth itself seemed to listen when he did. His name was Samson, and his story was spoken first in whispers, then in fear, and finally in wonder. Long before his strength became legend, before enemies trembled at his shadow, he was only a child promised to God.

The Retreating Left
Democratic Socialism, Anarchism, and Left Communism are variations of the same failure. Each represents a retreat from the inherited legacy of communism and the revolutionary left. These three ideologies are idealist, Eurocentric, and petty bourgeois. They emerged in our context as different strategies of retreat — positions I once inhabited but no longer do. Through these three ideologies I carried variations of similar bourgeois fears about Marxism-Leninism. I followed multiple paths during my time on the left. Each promised a way forward. Three led to retreat. One did not.

From Small Steps to Great Heights
When people spoke about Daniel Harper’s success, they usually mentioned the awards, the thriving technology company he founded, and the speeches he gave to thousands of inspired listeners. What they did not see were the early mornings, the quiet disappointments, and the determination that shaped his journey long before anyone knew his name.

Who is Bashir Zeb, the head of the banned organization BLA?
Before the attacks carried out on several cities including Quetta, the capital of Balochistan, the banned separatist organization Baloch Liberation Army (BLA) had released a video. In this picture , armed men can be seen riding three motorcycles at an unidentified deserted location. Only one of the six individuals’ face is visible. According to the banned organization, this person was the head of the BLA, Bashir Zeb, and it was also claimed that Bashir Zeb personally took part in these attacks. The BLA did not clarify where the video was recorded; however, Balochistan Chief Minister Mir Sarfraz Bugti claimed that the video was filmed in Afghanistan. It should be noted that last Saturday armed militants targeted various installations in Quetta, Mastung, Kalat, Nushki, Kharan, Dalbandin, Turbat, Tump, Gwadar, Pasni and several other areas. According to the provincial chief minister, a total of 31 civilians and 17 security personnel were killed in these attacks, while the government claimed that 145 militants were also killed. The banned BLA has been active in Balochistan for more than a decade, but in recent years the scope and intensity of attacks by the organization and its subsidiary group Majeed Brigade have increased. The BLA has been declared a banned organization by both Pakistan and the United States. It is worth recalling that since the attack on the Chinese Consulate in Karachi in November 2018, Bashir Zeb has been wanted by the Government of Pakistan in numerous cases involving attacks carried out by the BLA. These include the planning of the 2020 attack on the Karachi Stock Exchange, the planning of the female suicide bombing targeting Chinese teachers at Karachi University, and the attack on a convoy of Chinese engineers near Karachi Airport. In the airport attack case, a court has already declared him an absconder. However, there was a time when Bashir Zeb was active in student politics on the streets of Quetta. We spoke to journalists and former and current security officials, and also reviewed Bashir Zeb’s own writings and interviews given as chairman of BSO Azad, in order to understand who Bashir Zeb is and how he became part of this organization.
