Personally, I think iranian girls tend to be much more liberal minded (in the west) compared to their south asian or arabian counterparts. Just my experience... The problem with pakistan is the literacy rate... For females, it is horribly low at 46%. Education is the forefront of development...

That does not mean Iran wouldn't be able to counter them either. In fact, there are more chances of Iran being able to do so rather than not as evident from history. We must judge on probabilities. Hmm, I don't understand your view. You said you take more neutral view yet you are quite anti...

Please research more before coming to any conclusion. Comparing pakistan and Iran is a fallacy in the first place. Iran would beat pakistan in most, if not all fields. Only way pakistan may be a somewhat better is the military (and nukes). Women in Iran - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

How can you speak for majority of the people? Such matters like whether the average Iranian is worse off now, has to be reflected in the statistics compiled by various agencies. Iran has experience dealing with sanctions for the last 30 years or so. I'm sure they will find a way around it. Iran...

Wow, I didn't know that. Thanks for the info. Iran's HDI of 0.707 is higher than that of Turkey - 0.699.

Does he have any experience in politics?

Your assertion that Iran would not survive if not for other countries because it is not self-sufficient.

Hmm... I think you are not well informed about Iran. You can read this wiki page for a start (it's well referenced). Iran has it's share of problems, but I think you are being too harsh on Iran: Economy of Iran - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia During Shah's era, everything was imported from...

The problem is, pakistan is very poor at diplomacy. At least when compared to India. Musharaf govt. was not so bad but this one is both worse and incompetent - in almost all respects. Another reason why Pakistan's ratings have plummeted is because of the fractions in it's security...

Yes i heard his name around the forum. Did a little research too. He seems like a good guy. Charismatic too. God always wills the best. :) Just focus...

Dear, in 2008, Iran faced a domestic crisis due to newly imposed sanctions and temporarily imported 40% of it's gasoline (not oil) to meet demand. In 2010, Iran said it has stopped those imports because it is concentrating on domestic capacity expansion. Iran Claims It Has Started Exporting...

Iran depends on a few countries like India for it's oil exports (why blame Iran for the sanctions? Every country depends on other's for exports including pakistan/china). But is definitely not as dependent as it's neighbours: The only "need" a country has is agricultural products (in basic...

Okay, so do you think anybody who is standing up in the next elections will be better for pakistan (I am asking because I have heard south asian politics tend to be dynastical)?

Those are export treemaps. What do you expect from a country which has abundance of oil? I don't know if you have studied Economics, but The rule is, you export things in which you have comparative advantage. Iran clearly has a comparative advantage in hydrocarbon products and takes advantage of...

Why not ? :meeting: But, I think, Pakistan needs a good government first. The present government is not very good at diplomacy with it's corruption record. I hope pakistanis can make a better choice in their next election to come.

Wherever did I say they are due to Muslims? It seems you totally missed the point in my post. Please read the post again and try to grasp the point I was trying to make. I see an emotional outburst here., which is not healthy in a debate. I hadn't expected this kind of language from a...

If they are "pieces of junk" then what should we call the "islamic rep;ublic of pakistan"?

You are like a parrot of the Mullahs. Are you a bot or something? I always see you repeating the same rant again and again. If secularism is "failed" as you say, why are all developed countries secular today? Secularism is the most successful concept in history. Secular Europe did what others...
