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