    The Hyphen that Destroyed a Nation

    Personally, i have no beef with him ; I am just trying to understand and correct the vengeful mindset he has towards his principal benefactor here.

    The Hyphen that Destroyed a Nation

    Well remember those golden words the next time you visit your homeland, because the food that your fellowmen eat, the houses that your fellowmen live in, the diurnal necessities that make your fellowmen's lives comfortable, even the very fact that you can roam, live and breathe freely in an...

    The Hyphen that Destroyed a Nation

    What i find more incredible is that a Pakistani safely tucked away in the Queen's land commenting in a language that is not the lingua franca of his nation on a forum hosted in your sworn enemy, the United States, questions an Indian, who by all means finds it amusing that the topic is even...

    The Hyphen that Destroyed a Nation

    Damn, and i thought the hyphenation in question was the Afghanistan-Pakistan hyphenation that had destroyed Pakistan ; Unfortunately for the wannabe lawyer, the reality is all too terrifying to take refuge in Land of the Queen instead of the Land of the Pure.

    A Comparative Portrait of Afghanistan and Pakistan.

    Come on, do you know how simplistic this argument sounds ? Do you think US went into Iraq for their natural resources ? Or they are have over 700 military bases over the world to exploit their natural resources ? Natural resources have nothing to do with the reason why they are in Afghanistan or...

    A Comparative Portrait of Afghanistan and Pakistan.

    I am more worried about Afghanistan's (or a section of Afghans') intent here ; They claim the land beyond the expired Durand Line and i have no idea of whether the current elected government would sway under the radical factions (e.g. NA, Gen. Dostum for one as u mentioned) and try to start a...

    Pakistan Rejected CIA Request for Drone Strike in January

    I am going to address two concerns here. I know that the people of Pakistan know that drone strikes are conducted with the consent of the PA and GoP. And many a time the strike coords are not known. So it is with the dubious know-how and risk assessment of whether the HVT is the intended person...

    Iran to return US secret drone...

    I can understand bias, everyone has that. But as you mention, bringing in a country of origin such as these and then questioning your adherence to American values based on your native traits is blatant discrimination, and yes racism which the Mods should definitely censure.

    Iran to return US secret drone...

    The issue is focused just not with his understanding on UCMJ-Article 125 ; It is based on the broader aspect of how he lays out a topic, and how he goes about discussing it in a polemic manner by bringing his biases in the topic. And to be fair, I am surprised that Santro has stood on and...

    Pakistan Rejected CIA Request for Drone Strike in January

    A very significant point ; This means that Pakistani military officials are in the know how of when the drones are going to be launched (and maybe the approximate area, not the exact lat-longs). This means that in spite of PA and PAF in the know-how, they do not act to bring the drones down, and...

    Indians At It, Again

    Let me address each of your points one by one. 1. You plead for news outlets reporting on Pakistan to have a fair representation of Pakistan. Why do you think the representation is absent ? Either it means that you are unaware of it while they do get Pakistanis' views on the same, but...

    Indians At It, Again

    Okay, then tell me, which Pakistani expert should be invited for Pakistani viewpoints ? Ahmed Quraishi, Shireen Mazari, Moin Ansari or Zaid Hamid ? Or would you rather have Musharraf doing the rounds ? What or who according to you presents a balanced Pakistani viewpoint ? Heck, let me tell you...

    Indians At It, Again

    I guess then you have never heard of Tarek Fatah, Ahmad Rashid, Asma Jahangir, Tariq Ali, Kamran Shafi just to get started on the International scene. Heck, Christine Fair who used to be so pro-Pakistani turned virulently anti-Pakistani due to Pakistani policies. So is the case with Christina...

    Indians At It, Again

    What can a Pakistani tell about India that the World does not already know about ? About poverty, lack of sanitation, malnutrition, its caste system or about Kashmir or about Maoists ? India is an open book, well discussed, debated and criticized even in India by people like William Dalrymple...
