In 2022, Yasin Malik, the leader of a Kashmiri group declared by a US federal appeals court as a terrorist organisation involved in killings, bombings and kidnappings, was sentenced by an Indian court to life in prison. While Malik continues in principle to be re-elected as chairman of the Jammu and Kashmir Liberation Front (JKLF) while incarcerated, JKLF's actual operations have since been managed and supported by a network of radical Kashmiri and Pakistani activists thousands of miles away—in Texas.

The Hagia Sophia, built as a Byzantine cathedral in the 6th century. After the Turkish conquest of Constantinople in 1453, it became a mosque. Mustafa Kemal, the founder of the Turkish Republic, turned it into an interfaith museum in 1934 to highlight his country's status as a secular and pluralistic nation. Eighty-six years later, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan turned it back into a mosque. The building now stands as a stark symbol of the neo-dhimmitude that has hollowed out the pluralist promise Turkey showed soon after its founding.
