    VIEW: Gandhi and the politics of religion —Ishtiaq Ahmed

    It will take a few more generations to fully understand this man. He wasn't perfect, but still a mountain of a man by today's standards.

    Pakistan ready to hand Arabian Sea port to China

    So you're saying that there isn't even a teensy-weensy ****-a-snook at India wrt Gwadar and China? Honestly? Here's how this pans out IMO. You hand over Gwadar to the Chinese, Indian hawks start screeching "CHINESE BASE!!!" and IN gets a get out of jail free card, and lots more fancy toys...

    Hmm Jana, looks like you are under the impression that present-day Pakistan was colonized by Martians before 1947???????

    Pakistan ready to hand Arabian Sea port to China

    I find it strange that you guys are thrilled that your most important port is being 'Handed Over' to the Chinese, just because you hope it will be a thorn in India's side. Looks like surrender of sovereignty for imagined strategic gains is starting to become official policy- pehle US tha, aur...

    Kashmir | News & Discussions.

    It is also Illuminating that the UN accepts that Kashmir is still disputed, even though nobody is willing to do anything about it. About the only ones who get hot and bothered about Kashmir are Pakistanis-in fact Kashmir and the JF-17 is the only thing that almost all Pakistanis on this forum...

    Time for India to be a better neighbour

    There is some truth to this article- India has been (in the past) taking it's smaller neighbors like Nepal for granted. They're not going to stay our friends if we don't go out of our way to woo them, now that there's another (richer) suitor in town. MEA needs to get it's S.Asian act together-...

    Scientists propose one-way trips to Mars

    No, where you die has no consequence-only the level of one's re-integration with the supreme consciousness. Buddhism (and Hinduism, recently I've found) are at the core, atheist in a way. There's no man in the sky. This re-integration is reached by the practice of Yoga, meditation and...

    Scientists propose one-way trips to Mars

    I'd volunteer. Hell yeah. I've recently decided that the way to go is alone. As in Dharma, a human being is supposed to complete his worldly duties, renounce the world, wealth and relationships and walk away into the woods to find salvation through meditation. Mars sounds awesome. (No, I'm...

    Killing India’s hidden ‘Cold Start’ strategy

    Wow dude, you write well.:tup: All good points. I feel that most Pakistanis realize all or most of this, especially the part where the PA needs the Indian threat to hold on to the reins. But not many will admit it.

    Indian work visas, OCI cards in high demand in Canada

    Hmm, I have seen this trend too. A lot of Indian professionals are returning to India to work, as the North American economy stagnates and opportunities dry up. Not just that- the number of non-Indians (Whites) moving to India to work has been going up. Lots and lots of expats in Hyderabad these...

    A.1. Yes we can afford to give up the Water, but having all that leverage over Pakistan is kinda awesome from a strategic POV. A.2 By 'this war' do you mean Kashmir? Um,,,forever? Not too expensive to maintain a few dozed extra CRPF battalions....:azn: A.3 Did not understand the question...

    Kashmir | News & Discussions.

    This is a pleasant surprise. This may be admitted as a mistake, but the message is clear. The UN has no role in Kashmir. A diplomatic victory for India, but I hope this does not make us overconfident. A lot needs to be done in J&Kashmir-to start with, improving the economic infrastructure and...

    Laaton ke bhoot baat se nahin maante. Improve governance, bring investments into Kashmir, provide jobs for youth so that they have some option other than accepting money from troublemongers to throw rocks at policemen. All this Aazadi nonsense will soon be history. This isn't 1971.

    Telling it like it is to Pakistan

    The last time Afghanistan had a 'Pakistan-friendly' regime, what happened? The country descended into a medieval quasi-religious morass, governed by you best (former) friends. A black hole where freedom meant nothing, women were treated worse than cattle and historic religious monuments were...

    Any members who visited each others countries

    Well I dunno. That's what the Israeli tourists like to eat, so the locals cook it for them, so by that reasoning it IS Israeli food, perhaps it's similar to other Arab/middle eastern dishes. Kinda like my friends in Canada loved the Biryani we made at home, they think of it as Indian food...

    Any members who visited each others countries

    Many of them settle in Himachal and set up their own 'farming', if you know what I mean. Some go here-Malana-and set up farms. 'Malana Cream'- best Hash in the whole wide world. It's an interesting place, a village that is a democratic country! Some say the people are descendants of...

    Any members who visited each others countries

    Once Israelis finish their compulsory military service, about 30,000 of them come to India every year. They backpack and go to Goa, Himachal Pradesh(hills) or a few other popular addas. They get wasted on drugs (mostly, not all), party like crazy and when they run out of money they go back...
