Dr. saib, sarcasm is not your thing. You make a mess of it.
Major (R) Adil Raja vibes ;-) In any case, I would like to know who is under arrest & on what charges & whether or not it is per law. More information is welcome.
About Hamid Mir, I don't know what you are trying to say. As I said...
Soon this will be part of the Sanghi WhatsApp University syllabus & Sanghis will believe all this.
The biggest university education system in the world is WhatsApp University system. It has branches in every country. Free education, according to one's own biases. What could be better?
How can you argue in favor of the extreme of wealth concentration in one family (North Korea), & the associated hardships (hunger, isolation, condemnation, very very parochial education, etc...)?
Also, do pay heed to Pakistan's population & our dependence on energy-intensive agriculture that...
As CM Punjab, he already paid for foreign trips. Why would it be different now? Also do you think that he is that stupid in this environment? You've got to be nuts to consider even the possibility.
Also, I would like to see a reference for what you just typed. You seem to suggest that first...
Appreciate your concern. Its not quite possible to stay neutral in all the political mayhem, particularly as expressed at PDF.
I had warned the PDF management in the past that it was necessary to clamp down on extreme political opinions & now when the s*** hit the fan, we have what we have...
Post reported for being irrelevant to the thread. Please stop shoving politics in every thread.
No issues. Not only would Russia need foreign exchange, but Pakistan could also exercise the WS-13E option if it came to that.
We are covered, though it may mean some pain.
Bravo sir. Well said.
Interesting parallel to Shimla negotiations between Bhutto & Indra Gandhi. They came to terms during a walk in Shimla. It was a good deal for Pakistan, given the circumstances. India has also used the agreement to its advantage.
Do you think I have nothing better to do all day?
Now that you have tagged me, tell me something: do you want Pakistan to be sanctioned like Cuba or North Korea? Do you think it is wrong to avoid being like either of those? I respect Cuba & Cubans, but still do you think that would translate to...
So, I have scanned all the 8 pages of this thread to see if anyone has pointed out that this is fake news. None have done that.
What I do see is calls for terrorism, destruction of the airplane, abuse for COAS & DG ISI, and a lot more. The ONLY sane voice, as ever, has been @SQ8 but even his...
Then stop prescribing behavior patterns that please you. No body owes you anything here. Only the soundness of your argument matters & in that respect you have absolutely nothing to show.
Your opinions <> facts on the ground. Please learn to distinguish between your personal bubble & reality. I suspect that PTI might not do very well due to its performance as a party since 2014 & as a leader in governing coalition since 2018. But you'll never hear me present my opinion as a fact...
But is that a good thing though?
His words & his supporters' words are aimed solely at getting him back into power somehow. That means that he wants army to re-install him. How is that a good thing? If anything, it means that he & his supporters have learned absolutely nothing from the whole...
Don't tell me whether I should stick to topic or not. Tell me the answer to my question. Why did you use a loaded term without any context. How can you defend its use?
It is very much a necessary part of this conversation. Your one-line does nothing to explain anything. It is just as confusing...
Due to long-standing unresolved systemic issues, Pakistan ends up at IMF's door every few years. You are 100% right that USA needs not conspire against Pakistan. There are plenty of control levers with which to compel Pakistan to act a certain way. Therefore, any attempt on Pakistan's part to...
A very mature & appreciable post. I could not have said it any better. Kudos.
The bit that I really like is what you said about Haider Ali. Few people are able to make the connection. Fewer still know that Haider Ali could have finished the British off in South India, but chose not to do so...
Who would do that? Name them & show an example of someone having done that. Yes, I am calling out your strawman.
There is another implicit problem. You are indirectly comparing IK with our founding father. What a shame.
Anyone who presents himself as messiah & cultivates a cult of his...
