My blood boils when I hear of Indian soldiers killed. Why should Pakistanis not feel the same way about their soldiers?
But decapitation, if it happened, is unacceptable. PA is a professional army but even professional armies - including the Indian Army- lose control of their soldiers all...
Thank you for being one of the few sane voices on this thread.
RIP to the Indian and Pakistani soldiers who died; they die right there on the ground, so comfortable SOBs like us can be macho right here on the internet.
Let it de-escalate now, please God.
^^ Do you mind not bolding your posts? It just hurts the eye to read.
AI assure you, anything worth reading will be read even if it lacks italics, bold fonts, etc.
Except that yours is more a hate filled response than criticism.
"Your people", "these indians", "They have VERY sick demented mindset"....are stunning generalizations that betray you, you own language betrays you.
I've made my point and am done on this particular topic.
More garbage in a single post it is hard to imagine.
Oh we Indians know we have a problem.
But I doubt if you realize that in your typifying an entire country, claiming nonsensical superiority of your own, and using words of hate, your mentality is likely to be exactly the same as the rapists?
India allied with another super-power, Soviet Russia, so that's your theory done.
The truth is more prosaic, and more complex (but not complicated). There are many reasons for our relative progress compared to Pakistan.
One is that India had a stronger polity with better political...
Does Zaid Hamid say it was a picture?
First, the above is not a picture, but a painting.
Second, it was painted by a Russian, Vassili Verestchagin. See this link: Blowing from guns in British India / painted by Vassili Verestchagin. Print
Third, he painted it in the late 1870s, much...
Good lord, there's going to be bannings galore in this thread. Get some dignity gents, your angry words betray you, your prejudices, your 'arguments' for the ethnocentric, racist nonsense of your fervid dreams.
And those of you who probably have never heard a shot fired in anger, probably...
Interesting mention of PA's 'job seeker' list, thanks for the perspective.
This is off-topic, and on another note, but I do not think that your comparison of Mumbai to Karachi is justified. I have never visited Karachi, but from what I read of it, it is far far more violent than Mumbai at any...
A no war pact is a great idea. However, the concept of a no-war pact is based on the fundamental assumption that both states are capable of and accept responsibility for all major actions that emanate from within.
If you're saying that Pakistan cannot be held responsible for preventing 26/11...
Precisely.
Taking a cool, measured stance instead of childish personal abuse takes the thread forward. Otherwise it just descends into passive-aggressive posters with damaged egos, feeling that they have been personally targeted, and responding just as badly.
Now, continuing with the...
The OP states how the US appeared to be dragging its feet in conducting an investigation of Zia's assassination. Assuming that that is true, I would give a less sinister reason for it than seeing CIA's hand in the whole thing.
IMO the US kept silent for 2 reasons. One, I believe that the US/...
