17 years in the future and nothing has changed for pakistan . We were threatened ones and today its the same story and we still have not learned. A wise country would have made sure that it had developed enuff defensive measures so the other side thinks before it just rolls over you like a banana republic. Unfortunely our generals are also on the payroll its seems.
Saaale jo kaam kartel hain darr darr ke karte hayn...oh america naraz na ho Jay ga. These Turds should know this darr aint gonna save their of our loved ones when bombs start falling down on our ***. what have they done in 17 years to make sure that "stone age" threat is not valid today. how much Does it fucking cost to get a credible nuke deterrent against anyone ?

Turks pushed Americans back on Gulen.....On the other hand, WE.....are such pussies and incompetent that we can't even learn from our friends...We couldn't make Gulen out of Haqqani.

All the bluster in the world is of no use without carefully thought out strategy. Pakistan's strategy is made by very few people, and that too from a purely security perspective. This in itself is a recipe for failure.
Strategic location without means to leverage it has ensured that Pakistan has more to worry about.
This brings up the question - what could be the means to leverage Pakistan's strategic location? There are a number of answers in my view: First, connectivity; second, regional peace; third, economic growth coupled with rising Human Development Indicators; fourth, development of institutions that are strong, transparent, & consistent in their mode of operation (evolved democratic set-up, political parties, NGOs, efficient bureaucracy, media companies, semi-government organizations, charities, judiciary, etc...).
But actually what has transpired is the opposite of the above. No wonder then that Pakistan is in the present state. All USA has to do is to slap trade sanctions and tariffs, and Pakistan would be at its knees within weeks, if not months because USA is Pakistan's biggest export market. All the bravado would be sucked out and replaced with in-fighting and blame games.
Its best to put own house in order first and then to look at Pakistan's regional standing. A realistic assessment would have been good some twenty years ago. Pakistan would have kept itself from supporting Taliban in Afghanistan. There would have been a degree of relative peace between India and Pakistan, even a good bit of trade. GDP and HDI indicators would have been comparable to Turkey, and nobody could have thought of Pakistan as a push-over due to multi-dimensional strength and influence. Military strength comes at a cost and that cost for Pakistan has been weak civilian governments, low HDI, sub-par GDP growth, & bad relations with neighbors.
Before anyone wishes to disagree and let their itchy fingers have the better of them, just look at what Bangladesh has achieved in the last 20 years. Pakistan would have done much much better.
