Islamabad discovers that hosting negotiations is also being a hostage to Israeli violence
Dominant angle identified — does not reflect unanimity of this country’s media
Islamabad experiences Lebanese strikes as a direct threat to the negotiations it hosts. Dawn develops the technology angle — Iran-US war in the AI era, from battlefields to data centers — while reporting palpable tension in the Pakistani capital as talks approach a 'make or break' moment. Pakistan, host to negotiations, has an existential interest in preventing Israel from sabotaging their conditions: diplomatic failure in Islamabad would be Pakistan's failure as much as America's or Iran's. Dawn's coverage is that of a country discovering that hosting talks is also being hostage — hostage to Israeli violence in Lebanon, Iranian conditions, Trump threats.
