Talvez eu devesse assinar esse post. Mas, mas acho melhor que ele seja aspeado e eu entre na história apenas como "organizadora". Assim, estou sendo mais honesta.
Trata-se dos 140 caracteres escritos há pouco mais de 15 horas, desde que helicópteros de bandeira dos EUA pararam sobre um casario em Abbottabad numa operação militar que teve como único objetivo matar o ex-mujadinajed Osama bin Laden. Era o homem que vinha atormentando os serviços de segurança dos Estados Unidos desde 1994 e se tornou pop a partir do atentado contra o World Trade Center, em 9 de setembro de 2001, quando se tornou então o grande bicho-papão da sociedade ocidental..

| Located at a height of 4,120 feet (1256 m) above sea level, and 100 kilometres from Rawalpindi, Abbottabad is one of the most scenic and beautiful cities of Pakistan. Surrounded by pine abundant mountains and refreshing green hills of Sarban, it is one of the best-known hill resorts of Pakistan. The romantic weather of Abbottabad attracts thousands of visitors each year. The city was once called "The City of the Maple Tree", for its large Maple trees that lines the road sides, but were sacrificed for the sake of widening the roads. Allama Iqbal wrote his famous poem "abr" (cloud) , when he visited Abbottabad in 1904 and got inspired by the beauty and grandeur of Abbottabad. |
Os twitters que se seguem são do cidadão paquistanês Sohaib Athar que, com faro de repórter, narra os momentos finais da carreira de Bin Laden. Deixei twitters que não dizem respeito à operação em si, mas às preocupações desse cidadão para mostrar que ele é uma pessoa comum, igual a nós todos. Com capacidade também para se indignar com a overdose de informações sobre o casamento do príncipe William, por exemplo e que transborda de impaciência com a política dos Estados Unidos e seus adversários imediatos. Sohaib é não mais que um fugitivo da insanidade.
Sohaib é apenas mais uma demonstração de que as novas tecnologias conspiram em favor da circulação de informações. Não há mais monopólio e isso é bom porque os monopólios só interessam aos totalitarismos de qualquer bandeira. Não é o fim do Jornalismo. Apenas uma nova e rica era à qual nos foi dado o privilégio de viver. »
I guess I should unsubscribe from the #abbottabad search on twitter before it kills my machine. Leave Abbottabad alone, Osama and Obama... » @ kursed so, not that hard anymore I guess? » Wondering what would be the right music to play in the coffee shop today... » RT @ ISuckBigTime: Osama Bin Laden killed in Abbottabad, Pakistan.: ISI has confirmed it << Uh oh, there goes the neighborhood :-/ » I guess Abbottabad is going to get as crowded as the Lahore that I left behind for some peace and quiet. *sigh* » @ kursed I think I should take out my big blower to blow the fog of war away and see the clearer picture. » @ kursed Well, there were at least two copters last night, I heard one but a friend heard two, for 15-20 minutes. » Report from a sweeper: A family also died in the crash, and one of the helicopter riders got away and is now being searched for. » @ kursed True, but stranger things have happened. I just hope they don't find my giant helicopter swatter. Must hide it :-/ » @ ahmedbilal @ kursed Sadly. We should start learning how to spread believable stories and recreate a reality that suits us. » @ kursed Another rumor: two copters that followed the crashed one were foreign Cobras - and got away » @ kursed What really happened doesn't matter if there is an official story behind it that 99.999% of the world would believe » Report from a taxi driver: The army has cordoned off the crash area and is conducting door-to-door search in the surrounding » I think the helicopter crash in Abbottabad, Pakistan and the President Obama breaking news address are connected. » Interesting rumors in the otherwise uneventful Abbottabad air today » 1 dead and 1 injured in Abbottabad for heli crashed » @ raihak The day there is uninterrupted electricity in Lahore for a whole month, I will start packing my bags, until then, Abbottabad is home » And now, a plane flying over Abbottabad... » and now I feel I must apologize to the pilot about the swatter tweets :-/
The Major also says no "missiles" were fired and all such exaggerated reports are nothing but rumours #Pakistan » Two helicpoters, one down, could actually be the training accident scenario they're saying it was >> http://bit.ly/ioGE6O» @ smedica 'safer' is a relative term that has lost its meaning in Pakistan » @ smedica I live near Jalal Baba Auditorium » @ smedica It must have been more, I started noticing the helicpoter when the noise got irritating - which part of Abbottabd are you in? » @ tahirakram very likely - but it was too noisy to be a spy craft, or, a very poor spy craft it was. » @ smedica people are saying it was not a technical fault and it was shot down. I heard it CIRCLE 3-4 times above, sounded purposeful. » @ wqs figures, if they have the right to shoot planes flying over the president house, the must have the same instructions for PMA » The abbottabad helicopter/UFO was shot down near the Bilal Town area, and there's report of a flash. People saying it could be a drone. » @ kashaziz technically, it is unidentified until identified, and it is a flying object, so year, why the hell not, we have seen weirder stuff » @ raihak yep, the mad power cuts have reached abbottabad - 14 hours daily - luckily I have a generator AND a UPS at the coffee shop » Since taliban (probably) don't have helicpoters, and since they're saying it was not "ours", so must be a complicated situation #abbottabad» @ raihak Funny, moving to Abbottabad was part of the 'being safe' strategy » OMG :S Bomb Blasts in Abbottabad.. I hope everyone is fine :( » @ m0hcin the few people online at this time of the night are saying one of the copters was not Pakistani... » @ m0hcin all silent after the blast, but a friend heard it 6 km away too... the helicopter is gone too. » A huge window shaking bang here in Abbottabad Cantt. I hope its not the start of something nasty :-S » Go away helicopter - before I take out my giant swatter :-/ » Helicopter hovering above Abbottabad at 1AM (is a rare event). » 18 hours per day is not loadshedding, it is a load of bullshit :-( » Why are the Pakistani subjects so happy about seriously, our rulers take us through what comes after a 'royal wedding' every other day ... » Abbottabad had power for 6/24 hours or so today, still waiting for the power brokers to have pity on us :-\ » @ aem76us what is this 1947 which you speak of? » @ raihak I am following the whole jungle actually » @ sharjeelq I am sure the answer lies in a hastily clicked 'I agree' TOS button :-) » Why are the pakistani twerps talking about a royal wedding? Is it HRH papa zardari, or baby Bhutto who is getting married? * confused * |
