    How's your perception of other nations changed on the PDF

    A little bit of control is necessary, if only for the sake of keeping everyone civilized. If we all started saying whatever we are thinking, even our families would hate us...there are just certain things better left unsaid or said in a more diplomatic manner...and that is often lost on this...

    Dubai Airshow 2011

    Sorry, should have mentioned it...I agree with that. I was just saying that we have been so focused on the jf-17 the last few days that it's affect is magnified.

    Dubai Airshow 2011

    I agree, this is the most excited I had been to see the thunder since the days of its first taxi runs. We really seemed to have learned how to market it better and all the news of weapons integration gave the aircraft the kind of edge that was only seen as potential in the last few airshows. The...

    How's your perception of other nations changed on the PDF

    If a person is willing to let an internet forum, that too with little regulation, govern their opinions about the people and nations around them...it shows a great amount of naivety. The internet allows a person to say whatever he/she likes, without threat of consequence. Throughout history...

    India and Israel: a friendship deepened by prejudice

    This article is kind of ironic. I think, just occasionally, we should look in the mirror....maybe just get a glimpse. Last time I checked, our friendship with China was based on the mutual disagreements/dislike of India. Some relationships are based on economic interests and others on...

    PAK pilots on Sukhoi's

    That's not the point I was trying to make. I agree that the MKI has great range, payload and a powerful radar. My point was simply on it's TVC related capabilities. What some people are refusing to accept is that there are some inherent short comings with that concept. Its a great aircraft, but...

    PAK pilots on Sukhoi's

    The development of TVC runs counter to the direction of aerial combat, which is moving aircraft engagements to longer distances. The Europeans, Russians and Chinese have developed TVC as a means to get around the question of the superiority of American fighters, as far as, RCS is concerned...

    How 33 countries view each other

    Its an interesting case study on the involvement of nations in global politics. France, US, and Russia, who are actively involved in international affairs, increasingly elicit negative opinions; while Japan, which has been very passive since WWII,, is seen in a positive light. That's the catch...

    PAK pilots on Sukhoi's

    It's never smart to consider one aircraft as the be all and end all in any scenario. The Su-30mki is a superb aircraft and is the best aircraft in the region. But how an aircraft, with an RCS so large, performs in a relatively small region, with a high concentration of radars, both in the air...

    India not granted MFN status, says Gilani

    Very relevant point. All nations are now integrated into the global economy of the world, a far cry from the protectionism that destroyed the world 70 years ago. Pakistanis industries will obviously suffer with the entry of superior Indian companies, but it will allow our companies to raise...

    2011 Poverty Rates in South Asia

    Poverty is too crucial an issue to be arguing over. In my opinion, it is the most telling example of system the British left behind, where two nuclear powers have millions of people who cant even afford housing. Even in India, where the economy is expanding rapidly, the capitalistic nature of...

    $50 million RoboTaliban and US army

    I tend to find your posts extremely interesting, but I don't understand your need to be rude to anyone that claims anything that disagrees in the slightest with what you believe. I agree with your underlying point, but there are better ways to articulate it.

    Def.pk op-ed: Mutual Blackmail, ETO for Afg, Pak and Ind

    Much of my gripe with Pakistani policy comes down to this point. We are trying to fight head on against a nation that is rapidly leaving us behind. Every day we don't negotiate and find a solution to our problems, the less leverage we have. The solution we could have accomplished in the 80s...

    Reality of Democracy and Majority (Must watch)

    Most people tend to overlook the inherent shortcomings of consolidating power under one person, by focusing on the immediate and short term goals. What appeals to people about dictatorship is supposed reduction in bureaucracy and quicker decision making. What most people don't realize is, when...

    Ah memories! :D

    You can't honestly believe that. The CIA may have covertly funded the mujahideen, but they were hardly responsible for creating them. The the CIA just used the situation to benefit it's own nation, as it has always done...through the use of proxy wars. The Pakistanis played a far greater role in...

    Ah memories! :D

    This is the very reason I struggle greatly every time I think about visiting Pakistan. Every time I choose to go, I am left with images of suffering and poverty that I find bone chilling to this day. To see people living on the edge of life, with no food, no place to live, nothing of value...

    Superstition Keeps India's Richest Man Out of Billion-Dollar House

    It seems like it was built inside out...placing functionality over eye catching architecture. In either case, it is probably one amazing place to live.

    Ah memories! :D

    With all due respect, what you see you as cynicism and patronizing is a necessity for our nation. People such as Mr. VCheng and Mr. Mastan Khan say what most of us would rather not hear, but their harsh critique jolts many Pakistanis into awakening from their denial and facing the sad future our...

    Def.pk op-ed: Mutual Blackmail, ETO for Afg, Pak and Ind

    The only way forward for Pakistan and India is a normalization of the relationship. The cultural and ethnic similarities provide each nation a golden opportunity to spur future economic growth. The world has moved on from the pre-WW2 era of closed economies. For the success of the region, India...
