A US Military plane Lands in Islamabad carrying US soldiers and will stay for few days in Hotel.

Sorry, Beggars can't be choosers.

Just like war of terror was sold to gullible Pakistanis back then, while few pocketed handsomely from it, it's the whole nation which will be left with egg on the face.

Diplomacy. Even you beat someone up and knock them out. You gotta give them a safe exit, face saving and a end of conflict handshake. Helps settle future disputes. Secondly, mind your language. Other wise your own legs can be......

You beat them, you ensure they wont cause you problems again, and you take concessions from them before you let them off the hook. Where are the concessions?

My language? You threatening me ? LOL.

It's a goodwill gesture that costs Pakistan nothing. Remember, it will need to maintain good relations with the West in the future, both for itself and long-term peace in Afghanistan. That they asked Pakistan, in the first place, is something.

Small steps, people, small steps...

If I answer you in the language that your kind deserves, then I might risk getting myself banned here. Therefore, Enjoy Indian, your kind are coddled here now. While your kind abuses us day and night on your forms, but we can't retaliate here. @Foxtrot Alpha

Any idea why they didn't fly straight to Qatar or Germany?

Only 30 min. flt to Islamabad, that was the justification.

 

[Baz2020]

Please welcome CIA and blackwater agents to islamabad. Please tell me are they gling to confine people jnto hotels? A poor guy would juat need a 1000 usd from these 'soldiers' to carry out a suicide bombing in isb. Oh and the immunjty these goras have

 

[HAIDER]

Then why don't you work your *** and pay taxes so this country can progress? rather than simply justifying the wrong actions of others.

lolz............... Tax is harammm.... we want all benefits for free .... go get aid from IMF and pay my luxuries ...

 

[Baz2020]

Uniform is cool though

Yeah their tax payer pays from their noses for that uniform so its got to be coll innit?

Some slipped through the airport and now hiding in their embassies

20 years of small steps result in fatf and red list

There is no need to get hyperbole over this. Pakistan is the shortest route, they want to exist as quickly as possible, what we get in return is yet to be seen but at the very least the world is watching how Pakistan is supporting allied forces and unlike the mantra over our dubious role in Afghanistan, we have always helped and continue to do so. This is the stance that we need to project to the world.
Naturally one cannot expect F-16s against a simple gesture such as this. Besides lets not forget that we have a problem with the US that does not equate to having problems with the entire West. Europe has given us GSP plus status for our exports, US still is our largest trading partner in terms of export. This should count for something.
So relax everything is not as black and white as it appears to be. There will be concessions that will be extracted latter on.

I'm amazed to see Pakistani public cannot differentiate between basing rights for drones (partnering in conflict) and allowing allied troops and refugees transit through our country (partnering in peace).

Which is a great opportunity for Pakistan’s soft image.
Providing assistance to NATO & Foreign troops and refugees is a diplomatic edge Pakistan has gained.

Are they really US soldiers or French?

and is this news worth any coverage at all. Why we get so excited with US uniform

True, soft image is important. May be its important to have public awareness thing going on.

Bilkul, thats other way of looking at it. Bottom line lies in knowing what we are to do (or not to do) and sticking to it. Doing it one's own way is what the world is going about things.

Please either write in english or proper Urdu.

whoever came up with this soft image idea for Pakistan is a genius. Pakistan images is already soft, weak and a pushover. Whoever feeding this term to Pakistani establishment is just manipulating them to do more.

 

[RIP Pak LAW]

Can't believe there are so many idiots in this forum. They are not here for war but for transit which won't last for few days infact soliders were the first one to return back to their respective countries (upmost 2-3 days) where as Afghans evacuees probably will stay for few days before their paper work is finished.
