I think this quote is well know to be a fake / manufactured one There is no publication of the Jewish Chronicle on 9 August 1967 which was a Wednesday and the Chronicle is published every Friday only The Jewish Chronicle

I think it's not about wether talibanisation is good for Pakistan or not. But it will be the natural outcome of Taliban coming to power in Afghanistan. They have repeatedly stated that after Afghanistan, Pakistan is their target of establishing taliabn rule. The problem is that they think this...

Because they were NOT investigated for funding terrorism or inciting against non-muslims. The name of CAIR was leaked in some internal inveistgation that FBI was doing. They didn't even bring them to court because there was no evidence linking them to it. The US is security agencies are so...

Some interesting passages Israel did not wage a public relations war against the "Pakistani threat." Pakistan was considered in Israel as a responsible country and not one that sponsored terror, such as Iran or Iraq. However, suspicions abounded in Pakistan, particularly in 1988, about a joint...

Maybe the CCP censors the IMF website in China but the 2010 results are available for anyone to see here http://www.imf.org/external/pubs/ft/weo/2011/01/pdf/c1.pdf And yes India GDP growth rate was 10.4 vs Chinese 10.3. These are NOT projections, these are calculated figures for the year...

Some people don't realise that the 2010 Indian GDP growth rate was 10.4% faster than China's 10.3% according to IMF. The 2011 results are not even out yet. And this is despite the doom and gloom predictions. A high external debt ratio is what is a matter of concern which for India is around...

The claim was that 90% above Muslim countries would have sharia law. That is what I proved is false. Lets not shift the goal post. Indonesia, Malaysia, Turkey, Tunisia, the CARs, Syria are all countries with high Muslim percentage populations and are still secular. Not a SINGLE Muslim country in...

I wasn't judging Europeans here but indicating a thought experiment on how ridiculous the DocTalk post is. There are secular democracies as well like Indonesia, Turkey (both of which happen to be the biggest economies in the Muslim world as well) Malaysia e.t.c. Secular dictatorships are a...

You seriously don't expect this blogpost to be credible now do you? Both Indonesia and Turkey have 80-90% population but there is not "sharia law" or "jizya" there. Same applies to central asian countries that are secular dictatorships. What genocide and ethnic cleansing has happened in UAE...

This is not being reported in any other press in India. So it may need reconfirmation. IF she was opposed to it, it would have been raised earlier like the Teesta water treaty. Whoever, opposes this exchange encalve is being an idiot. Except for the BJP no one has opposed. Even when they...

I think you are mixing up the Afghan police with the army. The army had teh highest attrition rates of 35% in around the 2004-2006 period. Currently its more towards the 24-25% mark. Still high but not 50%. Ethnic composition also according to 2007 figures keeps Pashtuns aroun 40-45% of...

This is actually false. The first attempt at a peace deal was made by Saudi Arabia in 1981 by King Fahd 1981 Saudi Arabian Arab-Israeli Peace Plan - Saudi Arabia Recognizes Israel in 8-Point Arab-Israeli Peace Plan The second and much more comprehensive deal where Saudi Arabia first got...

And Badshah Khan and his Khudai Khtimatagar came out in the thousands to protect Hindus and Sikhs during the Partition riots. He followed the principles of Islam, not this "ancestors".

The correct pronunciation is Badshah Khan or "King" Khan. In other words he was regarded as a defacto King of all Khans. So great was his prestige that when he died in 1988, all Afghan Mujahideen factions declared ceasefire for a week in his honour while he was being buried in Jalalabad...

As you may know, India has never been an alliance partner of the US or joined military pacts. Even relatively harmless pacts like CISMOA and LSA have been opposed because this would "seem" like we are becoming an "ally" of the US. So it would be Indian interests that would dictate Iran policy at...
