Actually i wanted to know the source of your 80% mark. IMHO the term Secular is most used & abused (even Holyoke the man who coined this world would repent on that) The "Secular Muslim" is unsubstantiated terminology and used for convenience.

Iran is a big country its produces enough food grains to feed her population, it has huge natural resources at its disposal. Its land mass and population is huge in terms of Middle Eastern region and with its size it can & will find a way to thwart any sanction. Though sanctions have big toll on...

Can you please provide the source of the 80% popularity mark. The only reason for Iranian Popularity in Islamic world in general and Pakistan Particular is anti Americanism/Israelism. After Syrian crisis and Shiet-Sunnite strife in Iraq and Iranian open support to its coreligionist has dwindled...

Chinese classification of Aircraft Generation is a notch below to the western categorization. Chinese 3rd Gen means Western and Russian 4th Gen.. No one is overestimating their ability; even people with a set paradigm are underestimating their capabilities. Chinese have the fastest growing...

Not only about money there are other factors too, in five years time or so if both the parties will be agreed for Turkish induction, till that time a rising Turkey would be trillion $ + economy with largest armed forces in Europe and more inclined towards its ottoman Moslem identity. That will...

PLAAF inventory is 3 times of IAF and more importantly they have inducted 100s of 4th and 4.5th generation Air Crafts in last 5 years. So in my view IAF is not the 3rd best may be in top 5.

Turkey under AKP has perfectly used EU membership standardization to curb the Kemalist/Military nexus now Erodogan has already achieved, what he wanted from EU membership process. In my opinion, if ever Turkey would be asked to join EU then it might go to Norway's way of referendum and most of...

Yes, question can rightly be asked but there is difference between the two cases as Northern Iraq is not an independent state and Turkey has much better relation with KRG unlike Iranian- Azeri relations that prompted the envoy to raise the aforementioned issue. One more thing that...

The term location was precisely meant for the Gwador's Geographical connectivity with China & CAR,Russia with presumed pro Pakistan Afghanistan ( that directly translates in to anti-Iran & anti-India Afghanistan)

Gwador possesses more prospects for many reasons viz its location, Chinese connectivity, warm water deep sea, easy route to CAR & Russia, proposed settlement of Afghanistan in Pakistan's favour and finally Iran's fragile international business relation due to sanctions and intra regional...

Credit for what, This fellow will always get his 10% for the commencement of the project :azn:

In my view that is misperception, by handling to suspects (keep in mind that they both are Indian citizen) one cannot reach to the conclusion of strategic shift in KSA policy. The problematic euphoria in India is that media has started projecting us an emerging superpower (though Obama has...

Not as plane & simple as you positioned, tell me how many countries would come forward at the time of crisis to actually help India then I would quote you the late ex NSA, Brijesh Mishra..

I did not get this news in Pakistani media, did you? The only thing i want to know is whether it is a propaganda for popular consumption or not because Iranian media has reported this news many times before.

Even US has applied for observer status but declined by the SCO. Russia has permanent observer in NATO, Turkey will only be observer for say, coming 5-6 years .
