Correction: it has always been india who runs from third-party mediation/facilitation, because india fears a plebicite will be inevitable in such a case. And you just need to open your eyes to see who's got more friends. :pakistan::china:

personally, i don't think there really is a shortage of electricity in Pakistan. the real problem is that Zardari mafia simply took all the cash out and did not pay the bills due against thermal power plants. As a result a massive circular-debt arose which the government settled partly a few...

bullseye:victory: .... you got that right, indeed the government is taxing the people to fill up some private accounts in foreign banks.

Mystery shrouds top naval officer's death Mystery shrouds the death of a top official of the Southern Naval Command S S Jamwal, who died on Wednesday after a bullet pierced his skull, with the police suspecting suicide but the navy describing it as a case of "accidental firing" 51-year-old...

Russians probably only want a diversification of their arsenal..... otherwise they're more than capable of putting together such a piece of modern technology. And ofcourse, time could be another factor, they may not see time on their side, opting to go for off-the-shelf stuff.

i don't think it could prove to be a strategic weapon in an unlikely Russian-Nato all-out conflict. Rather i believe it is only meant to win neighborhood conflicts like those of Georgia and Ossetia. Alignment ??? French do have guts to say no to their allies, but a 180 degree shift in policy...

Russia will buy French Mistral class helicopter carriers with the complete set of navigational equipment and technical documentation, but equip the ships with its own weaponry and helicopters, a defense industry source said Monday. Russia is negotiating the purchase of at least one...

well, as far as blaming Shahbaz Sharif is concerned, i think we're being unfair here. there are more people dying every day in Karachi and yet it is only a 3-4 minutes "routine" news item. And no seems bothered now to blame Zulfiqar Mirza, or Qaim Ali Shah, or Ishrat Ul Ibaad or Rehman Malik...

anyway, as far as my knowledge is concerned, as regards aircraft performance (and not strictly the avionics and weapons), MiG 29 is far superior to JF-17. they're two different classes'/categories' machines.

i think it is a matter of another few years when china comes out with her own engines. russian government obviously realizes this and is simply trying to collect as much cash as possible "in the dying-moments".

well, an operation in Punjab would do us more damage than all-the-bombs-blasts-in-the-last-ten-years-combined. 1.it would inspire a new generation of such organisations' members. 2. the sheer size of machinery needed to be mobilized for such an operation against even a small city or a...

hmmm.... but still Mr. Aliyev is in uniform and so he must be a military man. anyway, i'm assuming they were only new recruits who are yet to go another 3-4 years of comprehensive and testing training.

1. i mean they looked too slow and more in practice of doing the routine in front of a visiting General. 2. they were using pistols in what seemed like a simulation of a door to door fight against terrorists. special forces normally use submachine guns in such cases. 3. the walls they...

...... i must say i expected them to be better.......

no doubt we need a strong economy, but in the current scenario that isn't likely to happen (unless you call Zardari's wealth the Pakistani Kitty). I believe we need a revolution to bring up honest, dedicated, devoted and patriots as our leaders and I believe such a revolution for Pakistan now...

looks like a Japanese copy of the american P3 C Orion.

i think we should evaluate J-10 extensively on one hand, and on the other, order something like ~70 J-11B (the multirole chinese version of Su-27. that would surely boost our capabilities, atleast untill ~2020 when a stealth chinese aircraft is ready to be deployed in Pakistan in response to a...

it seems he was not allowed time to sit or take rest. all the time he kept shaking hands, taking guards of honor, visiting picturesque and other SriLankan Navy sites........... but yes there were i think a couple of photos showing him sitting in a conference or something... anyway, was it only...

Again, your research in poor and you failed to see through Asghar Khan. His sense & standing among Pakistanis can be gauged by the fact that he is a one-man party. people don't really know him and even the government or the military does not respond to what he says. All you see is the...

well, as far as the suggested "opportunity of give & take" is concerned, it is nothing but BS and a waste of time. while the indians have been sent packing from Afghanistan, Pakistan will not and simply cannot abandon the support of her Kashmiri brethren. They are fighting an over 700,000 troop...
