    India vs Pakistan: T20 World Cup 2012 Warm Up at Colombo

    Good match! Kohli and Karman were a sight to behold in terms of batting. Malik impressed with his extremely cool head and uncanny ability to pace his innings without taking huge risks...remember that many people were saying that his career is over, seems to me that he is still one of the most...

    US Aid

    Very true, however on the other hand it becomes difficult to stabilize your country without improving your economy. Kind of ironic but stability goes hand in hand with a healthy/sustainable economy. We can manage to do a lot better on the economic front if our Government succeeds in improving...

    who would have made a better CoAS?

    At that time we all saw Kayani as a capable COAS and were in favor of such an extension due to ongoing insurgency. With the luxury of hindsight one may now safely conclude that perhaps it would have been better to let things run as per standard process, simply because this insurgency is not a 3...

    SHEEP OR PEOPLE OF PAKISTAN

    Well I for one am seeing a change in many people around me. People are now more critical of the decisions taken in the past and present, there is a self analysis in many discussions which was absent before. Many forbidden topics which were never open for debate are now discussed in a new light...

    Lahore to get Indian help for bus system

    Keeping in mind similarities between demography, it is a good case study. A self sustaining business model is something that has to be looked into as well and in this regards only the ones running such a transit system would be helpful to us. Despite our issues with each other, one cannot deny...

    3 retired Generals to be court-martialed in NLC scam

    BTW, Yahya Khan is not the famed "tiger" referred to in many 71 war discussions. It was Gen Niazi who was nicknamed the tiger by his British officer after he covered himself in glory on the Burma front, fighting the Japanese Imperial Army in World War 2. It was quite humiliating to see this...

    Breakthrough: Pakistan to award gas pipeline contracts to Russia

    The Gas pipeline between Iran Pakistan and India can bring about a great change in our troubled relationships. However i feel that it may not suit certain lobbies. Overall I sincerely hope and pray that such projects materialize so that we finally evolve and move towards a secure, stable and...

    China willing to set up $5 billion oil refinery at Karachi

    Too many projects in the air but not much completed on ground. Let us hope we get down to business and complete one of the many mega projects we all hear about daily but cannot seem to reap the benefits of. Our beloved leaders yearly sign on the Pakistan-Iran gas pipeline but somehow not much...

    Pakistan vs England 2012 series (Cricket assault in Deserts of U.A.E)

    Salaams I agree with the U-19 example as this has been my observation as well. Not everyone is as gifted as Mohammad Amir to break into the senior side and become an immediate star, however there is no denying that if our U-19 has been consistently performing well then there are plenty of...

    Pakistan vs England 2012 series (Cricket assault in Deserts of U.A.E)

    We should at least try the younger fast bowlers and all rounders instead of making them sit on the benches and get older without gaining much in way of real international experience. Sure they are going to get thrashed by good sides in some matches but room for improvement is there if you are...

    Reply to Asad Munir's allegation on Imran Khan's flawed logic !!

    I tend to disagree here. As someone who has visited many nooks and corners of Pakistan, FATA was only accessible to people who had ethnic commonality with the Tribals. Any other person was clearly seen as an outsider and was not comfortable. Let us call a spade a spade. Tribal society is...

    Pakistan vs England 2012 series (Cricket assault in Deserts of U.A.E)

    Perhaps seamers should have been allowed to bowl 5-7 overs each? Junaid was looking sharp. Anyhow, we got the initial breakthrough and now let us hope we can sustain some pressure. P.S. Our tail is very weak.

    Amazing Cricket - Aus vs India

    It seems they have reconciled themselves with a loss. They are not at all trying to take wickets since the field setting is very defensive. They should attack the stumps and pitch it up while having at least 3 slips to give the bowlers a real chance. It is a test match, you cannot defend...

    I Will Disarm All Militant Groups in Pakistan: Imran Khan

    So we let revenge take control of our senses and ruin our future? I do not think that is the path we should adopt. Rethink over this and you shall realize that we have been stuck in limbo due to such reasoning which is not sound. We should not embrace India suddenly but slowly build a better...

    I Will Disarm All Militant Groups in Pakistan: Imran Khan

    Sure sure, give the military more power. I am sure they shall turn Lahore into Swat in a matter of few years. That there are many good men in our Army is a fact, that the high command has played a lot of games at the cost of Pakistan and Pakistanis is also a fact. Please be realistic...

    Reply to Asad Munir's allegation on Imran Khan's flawed logic !!

    No need to allow FATA to remain inaccessible to other Pakistanis. It has been a case that any outsider going to FATA is not secure and needs some local affiliation. This should end, however it shall take time. We can make changes, however they should be practical and positive changes. We...

    Reply to Asad Munir's allegation on Imran Khan's flawed logic !!

    Establish the writ? The tribal areas had been like this since creation of Pakistan and even before that. They are not easy areas to travel into but they did not harbor any fifth column working against Pakistan. However the militancy in Punjab where the likes of Laskhar e Jhangvi came into...

    Pakistan F-16 Discussions 2

    So should we let go of F-16 because it is a symbol of slavery, discarding our practical constraints which dictate otherwise to at least keep these birds in service till we are beyond 2020. Then i have a question for you, what symbolism is your avatar depicting if i may ask? You are a fan of Top...
