In fact, in Pakistan, we are speaking - more or less - a single language. It is just like 8 major dialects of Arabic in the Arab countries. There are some islands which are very different, for example, languages in the extreme north of Pakistan or Brahui in Balochistan. But, overall we can...
Almost everyday there is a news about some terrorists killed by Rangers in Karachi. This used to be 'arrested by Rangers'. Now it has become 'taken out by Rangers'. This seems like good development.
We could rename it as 'Arabs Defeats Section'.
Then, there will be plenty of material to add to it.
Jokes apart, there are some who are commenting the futility of rocket attacks by Hamas which are nothing more than fireworks.
To a pragmatist - realist, they will definitely appear as useless...
China is probably one of those rare states in history which has given more to it's client states as gifts than receiving tribute from them. This economic model continues in this modern age as China is able to assert itself economically.
Instead of following the model of Capitalist states...
I have found this piece very informative as the information it contains is from India's premier institute of Genomics. I have resisted adding any of my comments, it's quite fascinating. Tho Book is India - A Portrait by Patrick French published in 2011:

The reason for taking such actions - as imposing hefty taxes on imported solar panels - is pretty simple. It's corruption.
Even from the time of Pervez Musharraf, the installed capacity was enough for the total needs of the country. Then, before the 2008 elections, an energy crisis developed...
US can push Russia but now Russia is far lighter and economically sounder after shedding the countries in it's periphery, though, it still owns their power infrastructure and is the provider of their energy in most cases.
Brits love the Russians because of all the Russian black money...
It's sanctioned in their Holy Books, that is why they show no reluctance killing civilians:
As for the towns of these peoples that the Lord your God is giving you as an inheritance, you must not let anything that breathes remain alive. You shall annihilate them - the Hittites, and the Amorites...
Contrary to the Laws of Modern age, Quran is clear about who owns a certain piece of land:
Moses said to his people, ‘Turn to God for help and be steadfast:the earth belongs to God –– He gives it as their own to whichever of His servants He chooses –– and the happy future belongs to those who...
No Christian nation will come to save these Iraqi Christians unless Govt. of Iraq signs 'Status of Forces' agreement with NATO (allowing them to enter in Iraq again) and legislate to allow private exploration and ownership of Oil industry.
I think that here we are just quoting different versions of history; so, the only objective way to find out the facts is to look at the pointer present at that time which could serve as telltale signs of what was about to come.
For example, the creation of world zionist organisation with an...
Popular myth that has been peddled since the creation of Israel is that Palestinians were ejected out of Palestine due to war of 1948.
Israeli author Ilan Pappe shreds this myth by indicating that in fact it was the removal of Palestinians that was the objective of Jews and war was the...
Ibn-e-Safi was the original and his novels were the brainiest. The kind of characters that he developed and the plots were not only original, many of his novels could be converted in blockbusters movies.
Mazhar Kaleem was 'Full of Bull....'
Only author that came close to Ibn-e-Safi was H...
One million almost seems impossible. If only 10% (100,000) of those act like sleeper cells and then it means that there will be terrorists in almost all cities of Pakistan. How much intel is available about the whereabouts of such people?
The biggest reason I would be reluctant to accept this...
The person starting this thread should also look into his own backyard.

Doen't seem to be the case with your politicians. They are yearning for 'Greater Israel'.

Russians should learn something from their rivals.
Instead of 'Surgical Strike' they should call it 'Humanitarian Intervention' and then they will be free to kill as many as they want and spread the theatre of war as wide and as long as they want.
