I dont know how people are coming to absurd conclusions blaming Wahhabism to be the root of all evil terrorism. When in fact we all know this is not the case- Saudis, no matter how corrupt or deviant maybe, never supported terrorist activities. Infact Shaykh Bin Baaz, once the top Wahhabi Alim...
No it doesn't.
Any talk of "giving up" any sort of weapons let alone nuclear deterrance even in a hypothetical scenario like this shows you're speaking under immense pressure and from a point of weakness rather than strength.
It simply goes on to show what a *** this spokesperson is...
This is going to be the oddest post based on my instincts, that I pray to God it never happens...
Now that we're at war with the TTP fags (many *thanks* to the CIA for convincing our leadership+military to fight them) I have a strong feeling that the US might supply these TTP fags with some...
You're wrong. Time and time again.
Is Pakistan a democracy right now? If so, how can you justify Zardari - probably one of the biggest criminals in the history of Pakistan? A Pakistan that is run by either western-backed tyrannical dictatorship or simply bought out cheap criminal...
I can say you're an apologist for American terrorists committing murder through drone attacks in Pakistan and Afghanistan. But bro, this name calling wont help either of us...
This deal is bound to be a failure so long as US drone attacks continue in the Tribal areas and our military keeps...
They have never layed down their weapons and history is evident. Taking weapons away from pushtun is synonymous to taking away his penis. Anyone who understands the pashtun culture would agree.
Solution? Very simple:
All political parties in Pakistan need to organize a long march against...
This man is an Oxford grad. A legend in cricketing world and champion in sport. A man who built many great institutions in Pakistan- a person who knows what institution and nation building involves proven through his track record. An honourary chancellor at a British Uni. A man who is even...
Imran is absolutely right and on the spot about this war.
If not to fight back, but what exactly are they supposed to do when drones keep massacring people in their neighbourhoods and destroying homes and businesses while our politicians and military leaders are getting dollars for it? What a...
I'm not sure if you're trying to justify Pak's military operations, if not worse they're equally outrageous and should be condenmed by every muslim and or Pakistani patriot.
It's because of such apathetic attitudes towards civilian deaths that we're in such a terrible state today.
What an outrageous massacre!!! I am out of words at this heinous crime against humanity committed by the Americans.
Americans are starting to massacre people openly that are resisting to the occupation...
May God bless the souls that died in this massacre.
I agree with this part. Nukes are our insurance policy, canceling it entails inviting unwanted trouble.
I could see the Taliban getting a hold of it in case if either A) India attempts to disintegrate Pakistan B) US either breaks NWFP or Baluchistan and accept their independence
Why are you...
Giving it a deep thought ...and i somewhat agree but...
Even the most sold-out worst leader Zardari in the history of Pakistan wouldn't allow that. He MAY allow the extraction of the remaining nukes that were leftover from a war with India causing it to disintegrate into many parts...
Yes, its...
What are America's Long-term strategic plans in Afghanistan?
How long are they planning on staying there?
Lets suppose if they defeat the Taliban, how long would they stay afterwards?
Last but not least, what are America's strategic interests in the region?
The media tends to overlook...
Pakistan should demand the US to send Mr. Bolton to Pakistan to be questioned by the ISI for some explaining - especialy for creating war and fear mongering climate against Pakistan.
looking at the bigger picture, I'm gonna have to say i'd have to agree with Musharaf's decision.
The Saab systems may be very reliable and whatnot, but in case of sanctions Pak would be totally screwed.
The technical reports might hold a lot of weight, but sometimes success doesn't come...
"Rather than continuing to pretend that Pakistan is a weak but willing ally against extremism, we need to
recognize that while some elements in Pakistan – some elected civilian political leaders, the majority of the
Pakistani people, many tribal and community leaders and some appointed...
Now we've established that Pakistan's military is incompetent...therefore we have a case in view that they're not capable of protecting the Nukes from the militant terrorists...therefore we the mighty West must intervene to take away the Nukes...
Ahem...
This kilcullen guy is nothing more...
Not a feasible long-term strategy for Pakistan and the region as a whole. Pakistan and the region simply cannot afford these drone attacks. They're the single biggest contributor to increase in terrorism. In fact it is a multiplier effect.
So long as terrorism and extremism is inflicted on...
No offense but your friend is very short-sighted. He has shown no inclination to look at the root causes of terrorism that keeps breeding more terrorists everyday.
TTP and other rebel groups propped up in recent years are created and instigated by the invasion of A-Stan by US Army. They're...
