Ok this has got to be the funniest crap i've ever heard....:rofl::rofl::rofl: LOL... Is this supposed to be some kind of joke or what? Or do they seriously think the public is stupid enough to believe this nonsense that somehow gilani or fazl or any other politician for that matter is broke ...

Yea any possibility of them playing a constructive role is over I guess. They seem to be very serious about deepening strategic ties with India. And I think them having to rely on Pak in the 'war on terror' for now is kinda acting like a buffer against full-fledged American-Indo cooperation. But...

If that is how Zardari is planning to counter the long march then he is seriously TOAST... You dont put more fuel in already massive burning fire.....I seriously think AZ's days are numbered....

Yeah but you can't compare the two groups. Baloch Nationalists were a much bigger threat since their aim was to destroy the nation. The Taliban on the other hand (obviously they are a headache too!!) but their fight is an idealogical fight (imposition of Islamic Law) and has nothing to do with...

LOL.... Its funny how all you Indians just jumped onto this thread. This proves how vulnerable and insecure you feel because of Pak's nukes. Somewhere deep down inside your 'smelly-masala-filled' hearts is a genuine fear for your existence :chilli::chilli: Anyway regardless of the...

I agree with alot of what the article mentions but i think we cant compare Putin's Russia with the scenario in our country. Putin has been 'lucky' for the fact that Russia's immense oil and gas wealth has created an economic boom in that country. And economic progress always keeps the masses...

Pagaro is in the habit of making alot of 'predictions' these days. Maybe he could become a new federal minister for fortune-telling. Anyway, if the boots do walk into the presidency again who would it be led by? I dont think Kayani would be interested (he seems as though he's not really into...
