As long as they admit the point was wrong, I'm good.
Actually we argue quite well in favor of the points I made earlier.
Didn't Pakistani Army surrender to like 10-20 Talibans? According to Imran Khan, they did.
Indeed, and we are making them pay are we not.
We honored the peace agreements we entered into and the the Taliban did not. As you can see, Baitullah, Halkimullah, Qari Mehsud and the rest of the TTP gang are being made to pay for their terrorism now.
I know you are far more educated then that, don't use media to propagate a brighter image. Don't hide from the stone truth, like I said before, after the millions of Pashtuns that were displaced, things are not as pretty. Have you visited Quetta or any parts of Pashtunkhwa? I can assure you they do not consider themselves in Pakistan, They think Pakistani means Punjabi, According to Baluchis and many Pashtuns from Quetta.
Look at what your journalist had to say,
YouTube - Pakistan lost lot of ground and area of NWFP, Hamid Mir Vide
How ironic that you ask me to not use the media to propagate a brighter image and then use the same media to push your view point. The Pakistani media is fair. It is a media in which Baloch separatists can sit down in interviews on TV shows and openly talk of not accepting Pakistan (see the Balochistan thread for those videos) and it is a media that never shys away from drawing parallels between current events and what happened in 1971. So yes, I believe the images of the Tribes in Bajaur celebrating, dancing, beating drums and flying the Pakistani flag - its right there in full color.
Perhaps you mean to suggest that the images were 'staged' like the 'lunar landing'?
On Hamid Mir - well he was proven wrong now wasn't he.
And while I have not visited Quetta in several years, we have about half a dozen members who live in Quetta and provide first hand insight diametrically opposed to yours. And we saw the dancing and celebrations in the streets of Quetta when Pakistan won the T20 World Cup.
Similarly, we have hundreds of Pakhtun members from NWFP and FATA (who live and travel there), again with diametrically opposed views to yours. I am very well versed with the realities on the ground dear sir.
I don't care about Pakistan or Afghanistan lol.
I am born and raised in the U.S.A, I am just correcting your fallacies and disagreeing with what I see as propaganda. You are attempting to paint a pretty image and are hiding what really happens in Pakistan.
All I care for is peace for the two nations.
Pashtuns are welcoming the Pakistan army? You must be kidding me. That is simply ridiculous, They are celebrating because they are being tortured? They are celebrating because they are victims of exoneration's? cmon now, stop with the asinine comments.
The only fallacies so far have been yours, as indicated quite clearly with that video.
The people of FATA are celebrating the arrival of the Pakistani State and the Pakistani Army, heralding the defeat of the Taliban. It is clear. If you have concrete evidence debunking that video we can talk, otherwise there is nothing more to say here.
Because Pakistan is not capable of stopping it, Its not an easy task.
We are not interested in stopping provided we can keep the 'unwanted elements' out to a certain degree.
Once again, It was and is a failure. I mean, how many thousand rupees does it cost to make one lol? With the help of bribe, everything is possible in your country.
Why is it a failure? Can you provide some facts or stats supporting your position here?
Who said Afghanistan is discriminating? Do you mean Pakistan is discriminating?
You said Pashtun's can get across into Afghanistan with no ID while non-Pashtun cannot. Isn't that discrimination on the part of Afghanistan? Pakistan, as I have already pointed out, is implementing ID's for both Pashtun and non-Pashtun.
It is clear that you have not visited Pakistan in a long time or you perhaps never visited the Pashtun heartlands. No one is generalizing, its just the stone truth which is apparently hard to swallow for you.
Don't assume that which you have no knowledge of - it is not I who is refusing to accept video evidence debunking his claims. So far you have provided nothing but unsubstantiated opinion.
Once again, the above is amusing. I honestly wish and hope they are happy but I know the truth, Stop with the media nonsense.
Right, the cameras and reporters are all lying, but only you, the Great One, knows this secret and hidden truth.
Spare me the BS please.
Then why is it so butt-hurt that India is in Afghanistan's soil? Try telling that to General Kayani, he will broadly explain why Afghanistan is so important.
You have an obsession with Butt's hurting or something, since this phrase makes its way into your posts quite frequently.
We have issues with India's involvement becasue we do not trust the government of Afghanistan. We do not believe it will respect Pakistani territorial integrity or sovereignty and will act as a hostile and aggressor state. And while Afghanistan poses no military risk, it will nonetheless require resources to deal with were it to embark on military adventures against Pakistan, and we'd rather not expend resources spanking Afghan *** to drill the point home that they have no chance in hell of successfully attacking Pakistan over the Hindukush - the terrain would be a nightmare for any military planner looking at deploying an offensive force across those mountains.
Cmon now, are you checking the news recently? Pakistan is quite upset that India is training the ANA. Be serious now, Stop hiding from the truth which it seems like so far you are.
From what I have read, India is not extensively training the ANA, and we made clear that we do not want them to increase their involvement for the reasons mentioned above.
It is Pakistan that is upset and its Pakistan that is messing with Afghan affairs for its interest. It makes sense why Pakistan would be giving donations to Afghanistan when Pakistan itself is a mess and has tons of problems as its own, After all, its a 3rd world country. Pakistan is doing what it is in Afghanistan because a unfriendly Afghanistan is pure harm for Pakistan. Like I said before, Anyone with a political background would understand why Pakistan is so nervous of Indian influence in Afghan soil.
By that yardstick why is India investing a billion or so in Afghanistan when it has hundreds of millions of impoverished Indians and millions of sex workers?
A little investment today to keep Afghan madness away tomorrow. But even if it did not, Afghanistan is in no position to be a military threat to Pakistan. We would just prefer to do whatever we can to avoid defeating Afghanistan militarily in case Afghanistan decided to attack.
And why is Afghanistan unfriendly to Pakistan? Why has it been unfriendly to Pakistan historically? Pakistan is not budging on the Durand, and Afghanistan has no case legally to argue that the border should be re-demarcated.
Afghanistan needs to learn to live with Pakistan, and not continuously seek to attack it and destabilize it.
At this point dear, you are not bringing anything new to the table, no disrespect but you are repeating yourself constantly without any new material.
So long as you keep repeating the same old flawed lines and opinions you will get the same rebuttals.
