IMHO, Islamabad should accept the MRAPs; dismantle them, take all the metal to foundry and forge a long fence, then, Install it between Pakistan and Afghanistan. That will the best use of these vehicles as defence apparatus.
Nah...... his solution is actually a bit more practical.A moat would do, then a wall, and fill the moat with sharks.
Sorry if you didn't know that PPP is the scum of this country..... but then again the people who cast their votes in the favour of the PPP..... what can one say about them?Sorry, we can spent money on dance parties, foreign trips, renovation of Iftikhar ch.'s retirement house, his son's casino trips, life time pension for all retired PPP govt. but no money for MRP?
I hope you know a mujra for PPP minister cost $1 million and in 5 year liberal rule, I believe there's no count for million$ mujra parties.
We could levy transit tax.. we could stop Indian and Iranian smuggling.
You are not in Pakistan, but every single store is full Indian stuff.... cosmetics, shampoos, even ciggerets are faked in India and later smuggled to Pakistan.
Sorry, this is not the topic but the evidence of institutional rape of economy... which went from $=40pkr to $=104pkr.

US will make profits by selling Pakistan the spares to these MRAPs at high price.
Some reasons for calling them scum....well they still have support in sindh. so we should stop calling a poltical party a scum

This is the best use of those MRAPs. and definitely goes against the doctrine of cutting Pakistan in two halves, which is in its final stages of execution.
I don't think the PA is stupid enough to accept worn out equipment. Making all that trash serviceable would cost millions of dollars. Add to that the costs of transportation to Pakistan and later maintaining them. Who's going to provide the spares? The Yanks would have washed their hands off these vehicles even before the last of the GIs have departed.“It costs us somewhere between $50,000 and $100,000 to actually move that MRAP," he said. "If we wanted to give it to another country that country would have to accept the MRAPs as is where is. In other words they would have to pay for anything to get that vehicle serviceable again and also to move that vehicle to their country. We are looking at alternatives to provide these vehicles to partners to include Afghanistan, Pakistan and other partners that have participated in operations with us right now.”
Same goes for Bengalis, Inferiority Complex as well as Ahsan faramosh!Why is Afghanistan always so against us? I dont understand their hatred. Even here, we could befriend anyone, be it Indian, Turk, European, Arab but afghans dont make good friends of Pakistan. I m at a loss to understand this psyche!

And then there's the training and manpower needed to man these vehicles. And storage facilities. All this would cost a bomb! This is not a cost effective proposition at all.
The outrage is Indian, the voice is Afghan.
Why should India object to the transfer of equipment that only hold relevance in COIN/anti-terrorism operations? I can see how Afghanistan would have problems with the transaction but what significance does an MRAP have in the context of an India-Pakistan conflict?
And why would we voice our opposition through Afghanistan? Is our currency, both literally and metaphorically, fallen that low that we need others to make our case for us?
A very naive question indeed!
