Yea when your own 56'' chest turns out to be just a lump of fat, you have to keep your hopes alive on others.

Surgical Strikes anyone?

Modi has no interest in harming Pakistan because Modi believes in developing our country first than destabalizing other nations, something that is an alien concept to few nations.
But Trump is not as benevolent as Modi or Obama who did nothing even after finding Osama under the nose of army. wait. Oh right! He did drone Pakistan for few months but I think more could have been done. Trump may rights the wrongs of Obama.

:rofl: @Hell hound @Zibago my guess is he's photon what you ppl say?

I guess he wouldn't last long then just like his previous ID. These guys can worship trump but I highly highly doubt he will turn out to be anything. Quite frankly I predict status quo in the relations between america and pakistan with america saying Do more and pakistan saying you do more in Afghanistan. Those that want to see american troops entering Islamabad are in for a wide awakening or even sanctions on pakistan.

Keep believing this. Experts have different opinion.

No actually he lost to mujib and as a result of fight between mujeeb and bhutto we lost east pakistan ...

ZAB won most of the votes in West Pakistan. His policies are borderline fascist. I won't be too hard on him since he is a reflection of society at large

The late Benazir Bhutto was indeed the first woman to be elected as prime minister of a Muslim country.

This is only half right. She was head of the party, so she is was appointed Prime Minister because her party had a majority to form the government. Plus, she's a Bhutto. How much did she bank on her name rather than being a woman?

Is this a surprise? Major media outlets and think tanks across the globe are worrying over the US election results and the potential foreign policy shift the US will take. It seems that only Indians are busy cheering and sacrificing their female offspring to one of their transgender gods with 300-heads as gratitude for the Trump presidency. Go figure.

Too early to say anything ...let's wait and see his foreign affair team and his first chess move in South Asia.

Jesus, borderline fascist? Delusional.
He doesn't even compare to your nasty witch Indira Gandhi who carried out forced sterilization or your mass-murdering Congress party or your new terrorist prime minister, dear Modi-ji.

But, what difference does that make? The same thing can be said about all female Prime Ministers that come to power in a parliamentary system.

They knew that she was the leader of the party at the time of the election. Many, if not most, voted for the PPP specifically because they wanted her to become Prime Minister.

Plus, she's a Bhutto. How much did she bank on her name rather than being a woman?


The exact same thing can be said about many other female (and male) leaders across the world, including Indira Gandhi.

That is one weird assessment to say that who will save Pakistan from Trump + Modi. Just bizarre and raises a few questions.

1: Pretty obvious that Modi alone couldn't handle Pakistan. I've read otherwise on here that how mighty the Indian Military is. Well, from these posts and video titles, doesn't see so? Confused.

2: Mr. Trump has the entire American behind her (or obviously, the majority of the States and Electoral College). So he has to first make sure his voters are taken care of, there was an agenda and promises which got him the votes.

I would be very surprised if I see more wars. His first address said it all, he is a businessman, and I expect a sky-rocketing US economy, that would allow the entire globe's economy to go up too. That's what businessmen bring to the table, economic growth. I am sure he'll handle US disputes militarily where needed, but to make it sound like the whole purpose behind his living and breathing and becoming a President-Elect of the US is Pakistan.....pretty far fetched.

3: Yes, there is plenty of nervousness across the globe. Hell, there is plenty of it inside the US itself. So I am sure there are concerns in Pakistan also. Just like there should be about him ending the H1B Visa program. But there is too much sensationalism here. Every country's media translates a "smoke signal" in their own language.

You are right. All parliamentary systems work this way. I wasn't picking on Pakistan, only because the author used her as an example.
