The reason bangladesh has largest contribution is because it is lucrative, BD army wants it. And civilian govt wants them occupied so that there is no coup. I would say bangladesh should take over all UN operation and create a massive army. It will feel less vulnerable against India, will earn...

Here is what I understand, it is semantics. Islamic Scientist: Science mentioned in Quran. The Islamic scintists are able to prove every scintific discovery is written in Quran. It is done by doing research on an existing phenomena in Quran, and finding the nearest sounding verse...

There are so many muslim countries, but how come soudis only implement sharia law like this and others dont. Time for arabs to learn from turks/persians perhaps, and not follow a book by letter like dumb.

I can think of another one, force the person to sit on a sharp long metal rod placed vertically, wait for the rod to to come out of his mouth/neck. Takes a long time though. But much more brutal.

I agree too. If you go there you face the law there. The fact that it is barbaric, is a different issue.

Lol, you will demand your human rights the moment you feel a little pain, even if you are a BD guy in USA. As civilization develops and you are in more comfort than before, a simple punishment can act as deterrent. You do not need to resort to physical pain. For a person living a full life...

Well in KSA if you can pay for homicide, you dont need to die. Hardly a deterrent for homicide. We dont know their crime rate, it could be just a urban legend that it is low. ME countries are known to hide bad news. And no, it depends on society. US has much more death punishment than europe...

It is not islamic science but science developed by muslims, who could have been secular humanists, like many muslim poets, writers etc.

No, people are reading too much into it. It would have been a huge scandal in India if govt had selected US planes over others, due to strategic reason. Choosing it based on technical reason, is the least controversial within India. Also, choosing US planes over russian planes in an open...

Well apart from young people using a second language to prove they are "Cool", there is nothing wrong in using English when the situation demands. And it is natural for few foreign words to sneak into your mother language, nothing wrong with that. Does not urdu sneak into your punjabi sometimes.

No it wont be nice if the whole world spoke 1 language. Culture and civilization is intimately related to language. If a language dies, some special ideas and culture die with it. Some languages are endangered, which needs to be protected.

Lol, was it shahrukh khan's dialog translated verbatim?

The first language you should learn properly is your mother language, which could be hindi,urdu , punjabi, pasto, etc. Then comes the second language. That second language could be English or any other language like urdu, hindi, french, german etc(if that is not your first language). Second...

Zia: Allah ke liye hume chhod do. Singh: (With a villainous laugh) Allah ke liye tumhe chhod dunga to mere liye kya bachega. Zia: yeh sauda tumhe bahut mehanga parega....

That would be a biased poll, all pakistanis here are educated . Even then it will be interesting.

Yes. I wish I could learn spanish. I tried on my own, but could not go very far.

English Hasina: Thank you Mr Singh. Singh: Mention not / you are welcome / No problem. Bollywood Hasina: mujhe samajh mein nahi aata , main kis muh se aapka sukriya aada karon ? Singh: ye to mera farz tha.

Actually it is other way around. You can afford not to speak English if you are japanese / french / spanish / dutch. But if you are from poorer countries, it is imperative that you use a global language to your advantage. I would say if we were colony of french, still we should have learn...

Reading your post, I would say, bangladesh needs to focus more on education. Rest will fall into place automatically.

Nothing wrong in learning English. People learn it not because of colonialism but because English is the language which will advance their career.It is most widely used language in the world. As we already have a good base of English knowing people, why not use it to our advantage. People look...
