    Why are conspiracy theories popular in Pakistan??

    Alex, there may be lots of reasons why conspiracy theories arise in Pakistan as you have outlined..but is requires a particular mindset among the population for such theories to become mainstream. Many countries including India have seen numerous adversities over the years but I don`t think any...

    Why are conspiracy theories popular in Pakistan??

    Silent I am not denying the premise that AK might have received local support from Islamist elements in India..However, why is it all being characterised as a conspiracy by the Indian establishment by the Pakistani state/media?? What did India realistically gain from Mumbai as the process of...

    Why are conspiracy theories popular in Pakistan??

    Precisely..what is keeping people from thinking for themselves? The fact that we have the internet should prevent the spread of mistruths and conspiracy theories as people can examine both sides of the story and make up their own minds.

    But how do you explain Ajmal Kasab, the voice recordings, the GPS devices etc, which were are examined and corroborated by the FBI ??(unless you believe FBI was also in on the conspiracy)

    Why are conspiracy theories popular in Pakistan??

    Can you name a few that have captured the popular imagination or largely accepted as the "truth" elsewhere in the world (9/11 or 7/7 conspiracies have no mainstream credibility in the West) However, a recent survey found that 24% of muslims in the UK believe that the 7/7 bombings were not...

    Why are conspiracy theories popular in Pakistan??

    After reading responses to the Babri judgement I am compelled to post this.. As a long term lurker and a new member of this forum,I am intrigued at how some members are quick to blame 'foreign hands', and spout conspiracy theories involving CIA/RAW/Mossad, Hindus and Jews etc, with little...

    ‘Verdict makes me feel like a 2nd-class citizen’

    Karthik, I can see what many Indians on this forum are trying to do but I (sadly) have to concur with your last comment. If there were any doubts, the reaction to the Barbi verdict have surely dispelled them.

    ‘Verdict makes me feel like a 2nd-class citizen’

    Hmm..Guess we should start thanking the Muslim rule of India for laying the foundations for an enlightened and prosperous state..Hang on, let's just examine the fate of some other nations which have had the privilege of being similarly conquered and ruled by Islamists. That would include most of...

    ‘Verdict makes me feel like a 2nd-class citizen’

    Van Holle, I agree with many of the Pakistani posters here (and the OP) that India is not truly secular (but not for the reasons that they cite) Secularism as practiced in India in not " true secularism", with the total separation of church and state but rather a form of proto secularism...

    Babri Masjid verdict - the Shahadat of Babri Masjid justified by Indian courts

    Hmm..So you are happy to concede that the electoral mechanism of 'fascist' India would still allow a radical Islamist party to legitimately enter parliament through elections lol. I wonder what the chances are of such an event happening in any Muslim nation with vaguely democratic systems of...

    Babri Masjid Case Ruling Today

    Pakshaheen, I believe the previous poster was basing his opinion on speculative comments aired on NDTV about the judgement being 'Puchayati' or whatever.. However, what I understand from the summary of the judgement is that- a) The Sunni Wakf Board's petition claiming the whole of the land has...

    Dancing boys of Afghanistan

    Shocking!!!!! A society that treats its children so appallingly deserves no sympathy. I known child sexual abuse and maltreatment takes place in other parts of the world but at least its not practiced so widely and openly ...

    Babri Mosque bench judge goes public with dissent note

    I agree that its difficult to conclude one way or the other but there are clear indications that there is a structure underneath the mosque and there are historical references to a temple in the town that predated Babar. Drawing comparisons between atrocities committed by the Christians...

    Babri Mosque bench judge goes public with dissent note

    Fallstuff, please stop deliberate obfuscation of facts by quoting various VIs if you want to have a rational debate. That Muslim invaders destroyed religious and cultural motiffs of the indigenous population during various stages of India's history is beyond debate. You do not have to look...

    First-ever Pakistani mango show held in Guangzhou

    What nonsense!!Whereabouts in Wales do you live? If you live anywhere near Newport or Cardiff, go to any Asian shop there and they generally tend to have good selection of Pakistani mangoes. IIRC, they usually sell for around £ 5.99 for a box of 6. WRT Pakistani mangoes, I was actually...
