Failures and incompetence aside, I don't see why they would be complicit. They don't have anything to gain from it, at least not anything obvious. The government is already in tow. Stop being naive. Pretty ignorant to scapegoat the doings of the military for those of the politicians, this...

I take it you've never seen a bunker? If that is a bunker then the Indian Army has it worse than the original report.

We need to sift through the rhetoric. There is way too much hyperbole surrounding the Taliban built up since the Soviet War. Firstly, they are not Allah's lions. Just because they claim themselves to be does not mean that they are. Their unkempt beards do not give them any super-Islamic powers...

In ships of this size the pilots are not captains and the captains don't pilot the ships. The pilot is just the one steering the ship as per the commands of the captain. The 'canal pilots' are there just to advise and help the captain through the canal with their experience. They don't take over...

You are mostly correct. The canal authorities provide canal pilots and there were two present on the Ever Given when the incident occurred. However, the ship still remains under the final authority and responsibility of the Ship's Master. The canal pilots aren't considered experienced enough...

Not even close.

I know it might come as a surprise but mods are not omniscient. Nor do we have enough time to retrace every chain of posts. Next time, report the post instead of throwing a hissy fit. Just like the other guy did with yours.

Does not matter. Please try to follow the very simple trail of discussion and understand what is being said before you respond. Wastes everyone's time. What you have to say is ignorant nonsense. As I've already mentioned above, our belief that Islam predates everything holds no ground to a...

Well, isn't this embarrassing. https://data.worldbank.org/indicator/DT.ODA.ALLD.CD?most_recent_value_desc=true

I agree, the rest of India could learn a fair bit from them. Next time, before you resort to flame bait through lies perpetuated to help you feel better, notice the very transparent glass walls you are looking through.

I will take the minimal. I'll take a hundred years, as long as it does happen. That said, the change in societal discourse on terrorism began the exact same way.

Gen. Bipin is more than welcome to step up and fill that vacuum.

Police brutality is a serious breech of law and those officers should be tried and punished as per it. However, it is not an excuse and has no baring on the position of TLP. This is not A Vs B, no Good Vs Evil. TLP has no right, the State has all the authority. The rabid Mullah needs to be put...

The history of how Bhutto managed Maududi and JI. He was more concerned about consolidating his own political power instead of what was right for the country. He gave in to Maududi's demands, which till then had been sidelined since 1947. The second amendment was one such demand. Let's not...

This DNA was a fair bit different before him, though. Bhutto brought the rabid mullah to the stage, Zia unchained them. A society of hundreds of millions of poor, uneducated, and destitute was the perfect breeding ground for rabid illiterate hatred. That's a misconception. There is 1400 years...

If this is handled intelligently and with a strong enough spine, this could turn into a watershed moment and undo the doings of Zia and beyond. There will still need to be legislative changes to bring about a conceptual change for societal discourse in the country. You cannot progress as long as...

Sirbaz Khan is from Aliabad in Hunza. He was the second Pakistani in the running for all 14 eight-thousanders after Muhammed Ali Sadpara. Now he is first. His bid for the 14 eight-thousanders is being supported and sponsored by Serena Hotels. He is the first Pakistani to ever summit Lohtse...

For anyone who comes across this post, please read the entirety of it. I know it's long but that's only because the poster kept repeating the same nonsense over and over again. You will see how these dishonest bigots and hate peddlers, who know nothing about your religion, deliberately fool you...

I believe there is great merit in your theory. Besides, who will defend Pakistan if the great General is sobbing his eyes out into his pillow for the mean words he heard that day.

Does the report state who is included under 'ethnic minorities'? I couldn't find it but I didn't exactly go through it thoroughly either.
