These guys are 'bholas' of the highest order when it comes to Afghanistan and Pakistan. Even their more knowledgeable citizens are airhead-ish when it comes to these affairs. Their only source of information is bharti and american media. No wonder.
This is good for Pakistan. Romney would've prolonged the Afghan war by 200 years and started a war with Iran. At least with Obama, we know that US is gonna get the f*ck out of Afghanistan by 2014.
Neither of this has any bearing on US being just as responsible for the issue, IMO. The problem wouldn't have happened if Pakistan OR the US didn't get involved. i.e. if one party pulled out, the whole issue would've never happened.
You're way too 'bhola'. Your analogy is far too overly-simplistic to be applied to the real life case. To start off with the first problem in your analogy - Taliban didn't attack the US. Al Qaeda did. Taliban never attacked anyone outside of Afghanistan. In addition, Taliban agreed to hand...
No, I get your point. I still meant implicitly that Pakistan is responsible for other half of the problem. I do have a problem with the whole issue being blamed on Pakistan but some.
While I think you have a point, I just want to point out that Taliban were not involved in 9/11. Sure, OBL operated out of Afghanistan, but Taliban didn't help Al Qaeda. To the contrary, they were willing to hand over OBL both before and after 9/11.
Your point is still valid though.

So US is half responsible for the problem, no? Why are you singling out Pakistan? Has something to do with your nationality, I think. Taliban wasn't 'created' by Pakistan FYI. You ought to read up on the history.
OTOH, the Afghan Taliban are not involved in any terrorism in Pakistan. The...
Guys, let's not forget, 50% of what is said to be "US aid" is actually not aid. It's reimbursement for services provided to the US. So when you hear that US has provided x amount of aid to Pakistan, the real number is always half of that.
The amount US has provided to Pakistan since WoT...
Ok, so you're now saying that the problem was just with East Pakistan's numbers, not with West Pakistan AND East Pakistan numbers?
Clearly anyone with even basic comprehension skills can tell that you were suggesting a problem with both sector's number, not just East Pakistan. Read your own...
You're struggling to understand the basic math here... or failing to comprehend.
3% of just West Pakistan population was non-muslim. i.e. 97% of west-Pakistan was muslim. Not 3% of West + East Pakistan population was non-muslim and was located in West Pakistan, which is what you're implying...
What are you smoking here? I already mentioned that that they were 3% in West Pakistan (what is Pakistan now) at the time of partition, and they're 4% now. What part of that you didn't get?
