Stratfor analyst thinks Pakistan will break up.

[agnosticpunjabi]

"Regarding Pakistan, the current bifurcation of the Indian Subcontinent is likely not history’s last word on political arrangements there. Pakistan, if it does not further integrate its provinces Baluchistan and Sindh into the Punjabi heartland—and if it cannot manage a more turbulent eastern and southern Afghanistan—could gradually be reduced to a rump state of Greater Punjab, with the Baluch and Sindhis aligning themselves with a Greater India and a Pushtunistan straddling the Afghanistan-Pakistan border. None of this is nearly as improbable as it sounds, given the unraveling of Syria, Iraq, Libya and Yemen in recent years, and given Pakistan’s structural similarities to those countries, in the form of regionally based ethnic groupings or violent sectarian splits. Much will depend on what happens in Afghanistan in the months following the U. S. troop drawdown"

[dontsuspendme]

Tired of these propagandists coming up with some nonsense once in a while...

 

[kbd-raaf]

Unlikely, the Pakistani identity is strong in most of the country.

They have been giving predictions for a long time. Funny thing is that there might be animosity between ethnic groups in Pakistan. But the majority of us love Pakistan. I am from Karachi and if ever anyone from Karachi wants to break up Pakistan. He will be my Enemy No. 1. Be it Altaf Hussain or anyone. They dont have the balls to do that. We in Karachi love Pakistan and the moment some a.sswipe leader decides to break Pakistan. That would be his last day on Earth. We may have differences with our ethnicity but we are all Pakistanis, Sindhis, Urdu-Speaking, Punjabis, Balochs, Pashtuns, Hazaras, Seraikis, and Kashmiris.
Let the foreigners write whatever they want to, but only God knows what is going to happen in the future.
Sub say pehlay Pakistan.

Lol. Who are these analyst? Sitting in some place and doing analysis? Idiots.!
They have been making predictions for Pakistan and India for the last 60 odd years..~!

 

[SrNair]

[jarves]

I dont think its possible now,Pakistan has survived during worst of its time.....

 

[Imran Khan]

uske munh mein ghee shakkar. i fully support, welcome and pray for such an outcome.

Stratfor is a joke thinktank. Their founder wrote a book on how poland and turkey will be the next superpowers after usa and china collapse.

 

[hussain0216]

Pakistan after all it has gone through is still together as a nation,

Sure their are problems,
sure you have some idiots like the TTP but largely the idea of pakistan and understanding that this is one nation is strong amongst all our peoples

As a nation we will go on endure and better times and hard times will always come

 

[IceCold]

Before jumping on to the gun, we should not forget that Pakistan indeed has been broken once, whatever the means were, i am not going to go into that. Honestly speaking the way Pakistan is being run for the last five years and now for another, I can only pray "God help us"
I am from Punjab and i will say Punjab dominance should be reduced, the feudalism in Sindh should be buried and so should the sardar system in Balochistan. Thugs like Altaf sitting in UK dictating terms and talking about breakups should be taken care of. Afghan border should be made secured at all cost, relations with India should be normalized without comprising Pakistan's interests.

Somebody did this in a hurry. Yes, there is a threat to integrity of Pakistan.. but as such, its a threat as much as Talibanization is , as much as earthquakes and Tsunamis are. If it happens it happens, till then there is no immediate danger at all.

Ten years ago a someone at some think tank in US said Pakistan will break up in 6 months.

But reality check is important too. If we let the political parties to lead us who are in the business of politics for business or family interests and those who divide us on city, ethnicity and province we belong, we are definitely doomed.

Some Indian writer under the disguise probably wrote this.
