Perhaps they don't want to elect anyone? they might not want democracy? I'm sceptical about any intervention (non interventionist). Rebels need not be a majority for them to win a war if they have better technology access.

why shouldnt the arabs be allowed dictators though? (assuming they want them)

Even if it was a war crime, what's the UN going to do about it? It's been made irrelevant from the Iraq war onwards. though I would agree the savagery of the rebels was of a high level. the argument will probably be made... "but Gaddafi was not in uniform at the time", or something stupid...

concentric rings of forces to slow the advance. make preparations months in advance. create escape routes from hideaway. it was very poorly planned.

i agree that winning the war would have been difficult though not impossible. but he could have tried to save himself in a more determined way. trying to flee in a convoy of pickup trucks from a city that was ambushed sounds very dum.

obviously he'd get rid of the heavy equipment when he uses the tunnels. it strikes me as imbecilic planning.

Anyone else think Gaddafi's getaway was pathetic? He must have known he was getting isolated in Sirte. He could have taken heavy equipment and tunneled his way out somewhere instead of making a very poor attempt at escape.

very simple. because some incidents of beheadings and murder to occur in Pakistan. But never does mass massacres of minorities occur in Pakistan like in India. ---------- Post added at 05:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:57 PM ---------- if that's what the article says then it's...

why did everyone start laughing when he mentioned any of you could be next in the video? my guess would be syria or egypt. Iran doesn't seem to be.

What a stupid article in many places. To class Ayaan Hirsi Ali as a feminist is dum. She's hateful and an opportunist. the main reason she generalizes Islam is to try and get citizenship in whatever new country she arrives at. She didn't even get Dutch citizenship in the end for service...

Seemed good to me. Veeru indian was the troll who baited the thread with "Pakistan should do more to protect minorities". The reply by me was very valid. You can't compare some non muslims converting to massacring thousands of minorities in one go. There's no comparison in the treatment of...

Murders occur all over the world. To think Ahmadiyys or Kalash are the only people that get murdered in Pakistan is dum. Sunni Muslims do also, in the name of religion. It's a fair point to compare what happened with the thousands of Muslims burned alive in Gujerat with the one or two Ahmadiyys...

it wasn't a joke in the slightest. 3,000 Muslims (a minority) were slaughtered in India over rumours, helped by the police and establishment. Occasionally in Pakistan, Ahmadiyys, Sunni Muslims, Shi'ite Muslims get murdered. I don't believe I've heard of a case of the Kalash being Gujeratied...

they look like civilized force :disagree:

They're about as Macedonian as Mahatma Gandhi is.

There's a lot of backstabbing amongst the Arabs. Speaking the same language doesn't really help it seems.

He has a point about Hollywood stereotyping. I'd say Hollywood is the worst of the film industries when it comes to stereotyping. Most Chinese American actors are not major stars like Denzel Washington or Morgan Freeman, although they have been in the US for centuries. Usually orientals are...

Pakistan isn't a democracy (not many countries are, definitely not India either to offer perspective), but democracy is a good illusion to present to the world.. you can blame all the ills on the previous regime and start afresh the same ills. Noone bothers you

pakistan need to blame some train fires on hindus to find out. basically modi shares culpability for the murders of the muslims.

modi was re-elected after the riots, wasnt he?
