Iran is going way out of line. If the US has to take action, any delay would negate the purpose. I am sure they know what they are doing. I would love to see not only the nukes are taken out but also a change in the regime. Iranians deserve freedom and I am sure majority of Iranians would...
oh sorry i should have elaborated that. i meant here the Pashtun journalist community. Biradar is not very uncommon name in Pashtuns and we pronounce it like Biradar.
This is indeed a significant catch that has exposed our denials about the presence of the Taliban leadership on our soil. I wonder how could we deny the existence of Quetta Shura anymore. i am quite certain ever since the collapse of taliban that top leaders are hiding in Pakistan helped by our...
Besides the Geneva accord, two things happened which changed or shifted American focus: one was to oversee the smooth transition from the cold war to the post cold war world. And to manage the reunification of Germany. The second thing was the Gulf situation. in early 90s the US was dealing with...
The incident of Abu Gharaib was not sanctioned by the state of America and they punished those who did it. but the ones done by Taliban are not individual acts but rather state sanctioned. in fact its the ideology and state policy of Taliban to use violence. you should know the difference...
Guys cant we say thank you to the US for donating us these boats and move on. If you really want to discuss something it would be its potential use which guys like us dont know. Those who know something about it shall share their expertise on the forum. but alas! they wont or they dont know. but...
No offense to Iranian members here but the Iranian regime is the carbon copy of Taliban or the other way round. The only difference it that it is based on Shia'ism while Taliban are Deobandi and Wahabi.
taliban are terrorists and history has shown that terrorists never succeed. Even if there is no ISAF or NATO these terrorists would have been slaughtered one day by their own people.
May their souls rest in peace. And may Allah give their families patience and peace. I had the pleasure to meet Brig. Abbas two years ago when he was visiting Istanbul along with his family. He was really a great man, gentle, very friendly. he used to have smile on his face. I can't forget my...
I do not support Israel’s occupation and its atrocities in Palestinian land and will condemn any misconduct by Israel there. I support two state system. Having said that I feel that there is lack of intellectual debate within Pakistan about our policies regarding Israel. We need an...
From Maududi to Aafia
by Nadim Paracha
She’s being called the “daughter of the nation” who needs to be rescued from the fanged jaws of the Americans. Her name is Dr. Aafia Siddiqui. Pakistani TV channels and drawing-rooms are buzzing with talk of this gallant woman who was...
Some members here are getting excited on Iran becoming nuclear but IMO nuclear Iran would be a problem for Pakistan and the region.
1. A nuclear Iran will minimize Pakistan’s potential role of leadership in the gulf region.
2. It will destabilize the Persian gulf and Arab states will...
By that logic anything that can be used for purposes other than noble could be termed illegal and its users sinners. For instance knife: its users could be termed sinners as a knife could be used to kill someone although its holder may just use it for cutting veges.
