Ya right.. as if South Asian is just filled with Failed States

You mad?

Iran is a regional power.

Regional powers shape the polarity of a regional area. Typically, regional powers have capabilities which are important in the region but do not have capabilities at a global scale. There are slightly differing definitions of what makes a regional power. The European Consortium for Political Research defines a regional power: "A state belonging to a geographically defined region, dominating this region in economic and military terms, able to exercise hegemonic influence in the region and considerable influence on the world scale, willing to make use of power resources and recognized or even accepted as the regional leader by its neighbours".

The German Institute of Global and Area Studies states that a regional power must:
-be part of a definable region with its own identity
-claim to be a regional power (self-image of a regional power)
-exert decisive influence on the geographic extension of the region as well as on its ideological construction
-dispose over comparatively high military, economic, demographic, political and ideological capabilities
-be well integrated into the region
-define the regional security agenda to a high degree
-be appreciated as a regional power by other powers in the region and beyond, especially by other regional powers
-be well connected with regional and global fora

From what i see india's agenda isnt saudi arabia when it comes to manpower export. They mostly target oman or UAE. Same other south asian countries. However, since the killers were proffesionals, they could have killed a saudi diplomat higher than this guy. There could be other reasons for killing this guy

I don't know. Some people here imply possibly Iran. But what problem or dilemma would they be facing in South Asia unlike the Middle East that'd compel them to commit such actions? I couldn't really name anything.

Very mysterious. And sadly I doubt if the case would ever be solved. Seems like anyone can do anything they want here and get away with it now. Including murder

Jogging at midnight..asking for trouble.

I wouldn't do that even here in Calgary. Sometimes people go on random shooting sprees, especially at night.

That rarely happens in south asia. Nobody will shoot random people, most shooting are targetted and has motive.
