The idea of Pakistan

It was not a simple accident that's for sure. I read a novel on this episode, written by a Pakistani author it is titled "A case of exploding mangoes", brilliant book.

Tricky to say. There were mango crates and a small model of abrams tank loaded in his plane and most experts believe that there was a knock out gas in the tank model which caused the pilot to lose conciousness shortly after take off. But still one could not load this stuff without a favour from PA generals.

Pakistan is filled with the same people who lost India to the British and those who kill their own family in the name of poet and Islam. No wonder they never prosper.

I believe that Indian Intel killed Zia for Indira Gandhi killing .

I am not a think tank :D. But from my limited knowledge, I think it will be better than now because if you compare Pakistan of 2008-2011 with today, it is much better today although far from good.

We are all think tanks in our own right. I think Pakistan will make major recovery when they finish with their zarb-e-azb. Right now the focus and energy is absorbed in that.

They corrected the dates I guess, previously it stated written on June1.
Ok. Some mistake probably.

No matter how much Zia wished to, he had nothing to do with the killing of Indira Gandhi. The killing of Indira Gandhi was purely an act of revenge based on religious sentiments.

Don't think so. Zoos was fanning khalistan movement and from that time till 1988 it was in full swing. That's when Zia was killed. To co incidental?

It's like this.. Zia supported Khalistanis, Indira subdued Khalistanis and got killed by Sikhs. Now that does not mean Zia did it. Tensions were high at that time and Indira Gandhi, as usual, ruled with an iron hand. She knew what she was walking into, she knew it was necessary for the country too. Her actions were enough to get her killed by an ardent Sikh, with or without any external influence.

You are absolutely wrong..Pakistan has become a hub of religious extremism and conspiracy theories.The nation collectively lost the habit of rational thinking.If anyone tries to instill some sense into their minds,they will be labelled Indian or Yehudi agents.You only have to watch their television channels to know the reality..I must admit Pakistan English print media is much balanced and tries to show mirror to its society but as I said they are already branded RAW agents.What I am saying is unless you change the mindset of people,the change is not going to come...it is useless to cut off the branches when the roots are still there..of course Pakistan may not see as much terror as it did again but many diseases which are harming Pakistan will still be present..they have to promote rational and liberal thinking ..Bangladesh as far as I can see in media appears to be much liberal than pak..I know some bloggers are hacked ..but will anyone even dare write anything against Islam in pak..I see a much brighter future for Bangladesh than Pakistan.

Can anyone please tell me what they are drinking on the other side of border ???? whichever it is ... it is really strong o_O

Pakistan on a per capita basis was more developed than India in 50-70 era. Maybe because the population was small, maybe because of subsidised oil or maybe perhaps because Pakistanis in those days were willing to work hard and make their country a success. I don't know what is the reason but 50s to 70s era Pakistan was arguably the most developed and prosperous country in south Asia. The economic model of Pakistan was copied by South Korea who later on would go to become a 1st world country by late 80s and early 90s.

Imran Khan the cricketer once said that Indian international airports looked like cowsheds in comparison to Pakistani international airports and he was not kidding. That was true many years back but now things have changed dramatically.

Now this begs the question where did Pakistan go wrong?

I am not a Pakistani so my theory may not be right but I feel General Haq made a monumental strategic blunder. It was he who changed the Pakistani society which had far reaching consequences. What do you think?

Link to the south Korea thing

Go and tell that to taslima nasreen.
I said bd is comparatively liberal than pak...what does tasleema nasreen example suggest?there are people in Bangladesh who question religion openly...in fact Bangladesh allows its muslim citizens to call themselves atheists unlike pak.I am not saying Bangladesh is France or US but much more liberal and rational compared to pak.

Another Hindu Indian writer in denial. I've read his ridiculous observation of Pakistan before including blatant racism agagainst Pakistani people.
