There you said it!
This is called 'manufacturing consent' and providing arguments to your head that you otherwise would never have built or seen yourself. This is a very widespread tool used by almost all the agencies now.
I was on an assignment in Quetta and I met a group there who were...
Don't you smell something fishy then? I clearly do. Else no one acknowledges deaths and injuries left right day and night
The pattern being built is slow but sure to climax with a false flag. Sufficient ground work for a massive public demand to act will be on a high and another Parakaram will...
PM visits the largest AF base upon invitation from the ACM to mark end of the largest AF exercises involving 100% assets of the AF. What's the need of dragging politics into this?
A great message we send to the outsiders visiting these threads :tsk:
Yes you are right. A lot of what he said was for domestic consumption primarily and would (fortunately) be very hard to achieve. But this does also speak about the vision he carries and also about the people of US who have backed that vision up
And I think interest of people here on PDF is not...
Grippens for India with worst human rights records is fine for you. The country that openly acknowledged having instigated a coup and militancy in East wing of Pakistan and is at it again. Hypocrisy and nothing else. So please spare this ethics and responsible behavior for people and places with...
This unfortunately is need of the 'system'. Or, this is how diplomatic or political machinery operates. But the wedges in the shape of intelligence officials would certainly mean this is not a usual time-wasting committee
Army is treading very carefully not to be seen as someone sabotaging the...
I think we have a habit of sensationalizing and twisting everything to fit our own agendas, be that political, social or just sensationalism
Don't you think the presence of 1 member from ISI, IB, MI in itself is quite substantial and would act as eyes and ears of military establishment in the...
They never forget keeping Home ministry in CC, the ISI
But, anyone who is observing the developments could see a pattern being built again. The slow but sure escalations building fear in the hearts and minds of the masses to , perhaps, pave the way for some heinous false flag again
Oh what a pity.
Pakistan is cruel to deport a women who 'fraudulently' obtained National ID card of Pakistan and had 'over lived' her stay 'illegally' in Pakistan after the GoP had ordered all the Afghans to go back to their homeland
As for the treatment, yes she can go back and apply a visa...
No. We accept the fact that when there will be firing and lead will fly around, people will get hurt and get killed. We do not have to hide the attainment of highest reward in this world i.e. Martyrdom for the motherland
Usage of phrase 'like surgical strikes' was very apt. You used 2 lies...
There is no point of discussing a certain piece of news if the topic gets derailed so quickly. That impacts the quality of the forum directly. Imagine a google search of 'Musharrafs comment on Imran' returning a decent OP and then the reader is left to read the kind of troll fest under the tag...
The weapons are sold as per choice of the government to a country of their own choice. That is the bottom line.
All categorizations are put in place to make themselves appear as a responsible and ethical entity, while in reality it all is based on politics. There is no ethics in essence in...
Empty chest thumping will only demoralize the masses and make them see their own Government as someone not worthy enough to act beyond border shelling. This can sell good first time but even not for periods beyond few weeks. See, this is where India itself has over done a thing or two as a favor...
The flip side of all the good talk you did is; Can GoI rely on the same trick over and over again to soothe the masses? In my opinion India has shot itself in the foot by raising the bar of performance to a level which is very hard to be maintained and raised with every unfortunate militant strike
People are the real voice and they are the ones who are eventually left to rot by governments to deal with the mess created by foul policies, so they will be very cautious in choosing sides given the choice. And this time it seems they know local presence and influence of Talibs is not ignorable
If someone believes Pakistan threatened to Nuke on such small time border firings, then that notion needs to be corrected
For crossing over into Pakistani side; well it is a dead horse peeled to the last bone. You are new here. Some reading on similar threads recommended to see arguments and...
