The taqiyas are as good as dead, not for the lack of talent, but due to the cold shoulder of the government and the lack of a proper platform to express themselves, they are pretty much languishing in poverty. I recently saw a news report on some Balochi singer, a recipient of various awards...

I know someone who is going to be there too but since you offer to provide answers, i'll indulge and ask one. Is war really necessary? Is it really that important to start something which we don't have the money or the capacity for? If there is an Iran war, its ripples are going to be felt far...

From the looks of it, the guy is in Soho. Not criticizing his behavior (not my place to do so) but there is an Islamic center just a few blocks away, why not go there and pray?

You are unfortunately right. Zia was the worst thing to hit the country and was able to some extent destroy the very fabric of Pakistan's society. When you look back in retrospect, its quite evident that the ban managed to impoverish Pakistan's own cultural heritage. All wasn't lost though, as...

According to my friend who originally shared the video, Nahid Siddiqui the Pakistani Kathak Icon actually ran some sort of training school in China for a short period and this was the result.

Pretty darned impressive.

The postulation that alcohol is not easily accessible in Pakistan is actually laughable.Yet the whole argument is moot since the Olympics wouldn't be coming to Pakistan for the foreseeable future. ontopic, its actually nice to see life returning to normal in Swat. With proper exposure, places...

Its actually sad that Pakistan instead of being more progressive is moving towards being a theocracy (as if being a Kleptocracy wasn't enough). Its even more deplorable that the people of Pakistan ( not the free speech organizations) are silent about this. The curbing of ones basic rights is...

"Naturally the common people don't want war: Neither in Russia, nor in England, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, IT IS THE LEADERS of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a...

Sir, While i enjoy reading your posts i respectfully gotta say that this particular one was rather myopic in its view. Before i get labeled a PETA nut i would like to point out that while i partially agree with your definition of humans and animals, its imperative to specify that both in fact...

Let me address this using an analogy. The legacy of Alexander is claimed by both the modern day Greeks and Macedonians. However, In that age, both Macedonians and Greeks were "ethnically Greeks". Ancient Greece was not one kingdom, on the contrary, it was split into many different kingdoms...

And what should he be? an African? or perhaps an alien from the Andromedea galaxy. The man was born and ruled a kingdom which lies within the borders of modern day's Pakistan, which in turn makes him a son of the soil. You can close your eyes and wish as hard as you could, but the reality...

Did you ever consider therapy? The severity of your delusions is just astounding.

Gotta love our "brothers" the arabs, our leaders continue to kiss their as$es whereas the continue to crap on faces. With friends like these, who needs enemies.

aah the beloved nytimes at it again. you know, i used to enjoy reading it when the reporting hadn't gone to the sewage but now, you can actually feel the bias just overflow. As for what i have to say about this particular article, well, some folks in the comments section pretty much summed it up...

Your joke (at least i hope it was a joke) is in bad taste. i would even go to the extent of calling it misogyny. You should know better. on topic: rip to the dead.

bruce... i trained with his students student for a short period... i wouldn't want to fight that man if he was hog tied and i had a gun.
