War should not be ruled out as being improbable between nuclear armed neighbours. If it was then Kargil could not have happened.Yes, you are right, only grave provocation can lead to war. That is why it should be avoided at all costs.

@genmirajborgza786 (# 47) Buddy, there is only one small problem with the scenario that you have drawn. What happens if the IBGs penetrate into Pakistani territory as a result of a massive terrorist strike like Mumbai 2008 or a Pakistani misadventure like Kargil 1998? The public opinion would...

Ya, I.2 billion and counting. You are indeed a good friend!!!

Yes, to both questions. But most nuclear armed countries have them. They were deployed by the NATO in eastern Europe during the cold war. Recent developments in Pakistan regarding testing of the Nasr shows conclusively that they have them too. They are basically 'kamikaze' weapons fired in...

He was talking of nuclear armed artillery shells. Tactical nuclear warheads fired using medium artillery. The 155 MM calibre is suitable for firing sub kiloton nuclear shells. The problem with these nukes is that medium guns can only throw a projectile upto 40 KMs and maybe upto 50 - 60 KMs...

Buddy, just keep those 'misguided guided missiles' in check and every one will be safe. Don't worry about people 'relishing' war. They are fools. ---------- Post added at 10:45 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:43 AM ---------- Sorry buddy, don't know why you had to bring in my religion...

Oh yaar chhad parey. don't flog the dead horse man, its already died and gone to heaven.

Congratulations and felicitations Bilal bhai. May God bless you and your family.

We don't think very differently after all. My feelings exactly. No way can the west get a UNSC sanction for an invasion of either Syria or Iran. That is simply out of question. Yes they may do it unilaterally outside the UN under the NATO and for that I believe that Russia should arm Syria...

Yes, that is Karma. One reaps what one sows.

Friend, the Libyan resolution which China and Russia abstained was one authorising the NATO to enforce a No Fly Zone. We also abstained that one and it was wrong, we should have opposed it and China being a permanent member should have vetoed it outright. Look at the destruction and suffering...

OK, then I am sure that the Iraqis and the Libyans are eternally grateful to the US for all the help. Ummmmmm.... any idea why the US supported the Saudi backed regime in crushing the Shia protesters in Bahrain? After all, the monarchy in Bahrain were Sunnis beating the crap out of Shias. So...

I am not so sure buddy. That is what you always say but there is always a very generous helping of self interest in the mix. Not really sure who you were helping in Iraq or Libya or Vietnam for that matter. In this case, you appear to be on the right side but then this could well have been a...

Why? Doesn't China have a mind of its own? Why does it always have to support Russia? And this is not a tug of war that two will pull the rope better than one. One veto is enough. What relations with Iran? This is Syria and not Iran. Iran may be supporting the Assad regime but how does...

Listen, you and your ignorant Chinese friend have been shouting on this thread all this while trying to convince every one that you are angels of mercy. Do you even know what the UNSC motion which China just vetoed was all about? Kid, it was not about the west invading Syria as the two of you...

Of course they would, especially when they themselves won't be doing any fighting. They are mostly kids who have a distant uncle or cousin in the Army whom they admire very much. These kids could not qualify to join the Army and now do all their fighting on the PDF. Don't worry, here too we have...

Hey leave the US/NATO out of it. They are outsiders and will soon leave. The fact is that Pakistan and India have to coexist as neighbours. India does not want war. War with India is not in Pakistan's best interests and surely Pakistanis too don't want war. What then are the circumstances that...

Buddy, don't mind my saying this but bikers/superbikers are a community unto themselves. Nationalities do not mean much here, it is the passion for biking that brings them together. They are much like mountaineers and hackers in this regard, they have their own language.

Yes, as the official entrant from Turkey, he should sing in Turkish. No doubt about that.

To my mind, two questions need to be answered here. 1. Is he a citizen of Turkey? 2. Is he suitably qualified and competent enough to represent his country in the field of his choice, that is, is he a good musician/singer? If the answer to both is a 'Yes', there should not be an issue. If...
