However, I think these numbskulls do have a point. Had it occurred to you as to why the Indian government has been dragging its feet for so long on Chabahar? I think the answer has been hiding in plain sight all along. Like it or not, India's relations with SA are currently far more important...

Lipstick on a pig... The sob story of the blockaded and destitute Palestinians is the "just cause" that allows hatred towards Israel to continue. This is simply propaganda. Palestinians work in Israel. They cross the border every day. If they wish to work, they are allowed to do so. The...

It is meant to be a scary look, as in they mean business They otherwise look really great. It does have the desired result though...

Thanks for the detailed response. Can you please summarize as to why it means we have to accept polygamy today? Since we are not faced with population constraints anymore? I am a libertarian, so it is not my position that these are matters of personal choice. However, desirability is an...

Yes Indian liberals and secularists will recognize everything but please spare us having to look at Yogi Baba's face first. It is blinding us to everything else!:lol: First, we had to look at Baba Ramdev's lovely face, and now Adityanath. It is all a bit too much really.:undecided:

There are rules of interpretation governing agreements. One of the is known as the contra proferentum rule. Basically if a term is vague or absent then it is to be interpreted against the party seeking its inclusion. So in this case, since your claim is that UN Resolutions are outside the scope...

It's not a court, it's an arbitration. First step is nomination and appointment of arbitrators. Hopefully the technicalities will be prolonged enough to bankrupt PCB. Subsequent agreement overrides any prior agreement unless it is specifically provided for within that agreement. Non-binding UN...

There is no honour among enemies. Simla Agreement asks for mutual settlement of bilateral issues. The moment Pakistan chose to dishonour it by trying to involve UN into Kashmir, all bets were off. If you chose to ignore what was the cornerstone of our relationship from 1972, then it is...

What was the legal provision to wriggle out of Shimla Agreement? We will use the same.

Oh yes. The ICC Future Tours Program. So India has an obligation to play Pakistan under that. Well we will not be the first country to not honour an agreement for whatever reason. I am sure there is some legal provision to wriggle out of it. Does Pakistan honour every commitment it makes?

I have no doubt PCB is ready to sue BCCI. But tell me one thing, why doesn't PCB sue every other Board for refusing to travel and play in Pakistan? There is a loss of revenue there as well.

This thread is quite long so I don't know whether this has already been posted here. Like all computing, quantum computers have a hardware and software aspect. Gains in speed have to be mated with reprogrammability, without which the quantum computer us limited in its calculation ability. The...

Yeah that's a good movie. I liked it as well. Irfan Khan and Nawazuddin Siddiqui are both good actors who choose great roles.

We are now living in the age of post-script movies, at least as far as popular cinema is concerned. Even Hollywood has all these tent-pole Marvel Superhero movies which have no script and are destroying good cinema. Each year, dozens of good movies are released and we don't hear about them until...

If this is the Indian s**t the Chinese watch then I am truly sorry for them. Most of them must be having such a low opinion of India based on these shows. I refuse to believe that Chinese shows can be any worse than these. The sad part is, we have become defined by Bollywood and Saas-Bahu...

There is a simple concept called a thought experiment. I know it might be too simplistic for the sophisticated members here on PDF, but just bear with me for a second. So on one hand we have a local hegemon (Israel) that has the capability to eviscerate its opponents (Palestinians) if it only...

If I may ask, what line of work are you into? The only reason I am asking is because I myself started as a freelancer when I realized that there were no job openings that met my criteria. It takes time and effort but one must also be aware of the right avenues. I might be able to share with you...

Really nice expression of sentiments, I am deeply touched. I can fully empathize with you as I have faced the exact same situation as you in life. The same despair, feeling of lack of support and lack of success despite all efforts. I cannot say that I have erased all of it from my life and...
