    Why should hafiz-e-Quran students be given extra marks: SC

    Like Indians competing and winning spelling bees in the US. It's about prestige and bragging rights, mostly for the parents. The kids would rather not be there.

    China’s population up less than half a million in 2021, births plunge again as crisis deepens

    Texas synagogue hostages freed, British gunman dead

    What do you suggest? Disarm law-abiding citizens and let the criminals have guns, often illegally obtained? I'm for more thorough background checks, mental health evaluations, etc. Yes, the US Constitution can be amended but the procedure is long and hard, per the design of the founders. They...

    Pak passport fourth-worst in global ranking

    It depends on who you are. The rich and the powerful have no problems getting visas. Plus, there are many Pakistanis who hold dual nationality, so they can use their Western passports to travel when a Pakistani passport won't do.

    Pakistan set to get 32 Billion Dollars from Out of Country Pakistani

    I've seen this among Indians. They behave one way in their native land but completely different in foreign lands. Must be the water or something.

    Propaganda against Urdu

    Has it caused problems for India? No. India recognizes 22 official languages. Though Hindi is the biggest in terms of number, the government never imposed a unifying language like it was done in Pakistan. Each state can impose its own language and has done so. If there's a language that unites...

    Sam Chui flies to Skardu, ISB-->KDU flight, Gorgeous Scenery

    Sam Chui's videos are great. I subscribe to his YouTube channel. Is it true that flying in and out of Skardu is so challenging that only senior pilots fly the route and only after receiving special training?

    US history riddled with massacres, genocide

    Yes, the US is the only country that engaged in genocide and massacres. Not only that all genocides and massacres were committed by white persons on brown persons. :coffee:

    How did the Philippines receive T-129s in 1 year while Pakistan has been waiting for 4 years?

    From OP: If this was the case, the contract could be restructured to accommodate this requirement, no? The reality is that the US will not allow Pakistan to get hold of these helicopters to please India.

    Pakistanis Own Crypto Assets Worth $20 Billion

    With the way the Pakistan Rupee is losing its value against the dollar, Pakistani resorting to cryptocurrencies makes more sense. Eventually, cryptocurrencies will be more popular than FX and even commodities like gold.

    Pakistan And The SU-35 Saga Continues

    Knowing India's defence procurement process, it will take a good deal of time to negotiate a deal. Plus, the Russians want a deal sooner rather than later. These aircraft are a sunk cost and the Russians want to recoup their costs. Selling them to Iran makes more sense.

    Pakistan developing its own S400 like system

    I saw Harun Rashid on a television show, dismissing the S-400 as nothing. He said Pakistan has its own missiles like Babur, Ghazi, etc. Of course, he was comparing cruise missiles to SAMs. So I wonder about his knowledge of military equipment.

    Bangladesh Air Force to purchase Mi-28NE Havoc attack helicopter from Russia

    If BD can manage a balancing act, it will be the best thing. Nevertheless, BD cannot ignore its relationship with India. Picking China will make New Delhi -- and Washington -- upset for sure.

    Sultana, a descendant of the Mughal emperor, wants ownership of the Red Fort

    Compensation? By whom? If the Mughals have any claims to make it should be with the British. The best thing for India after independence was to eliminate kingdoms altogether. No more rajas, ranis, or nawabs. Something Pakistan failed to do and problems are there to see.
