There is no analysis. There is no consideration of realities on the ground. There is no context, nuance or perspective. There is no consideration of where our long term national interest lies. This is all about turning every tragic incident into an opportunity to criticise and bash Imran Khan...

Thanks for posting this. This is what war is about. Martyrdom is the consolation prize.

All well and good in theory and in hindsight but I'm sure most, if not all of them, given the choice, would rather have gone back to their families and loved ones.

I'm not sure about that, he does seem to have a "sensitive" look about him.

I didn't mention 3 million dead.

This kind of thinking is far too nuanced for most on here.

Why do they care for a few dead Baloch terrorists? There's plenty more where they came from, all they have to do is keep the money flowing.

Operations would displace the local population and innocents would lose their homes, livelihoods, businesses and lives. They would be counter productive in that they would risk alienating the local population and would potentially act as a recruiting sergeant for the insurgents by making it look...

The good guys have to succeed every time, the bad guys only have to succeed once. It doesn't mean nothing is being done. It's a numbers game.

Go read a bit of history.

We tried that in East Pakistan. The Americans tried it in Vietnam. They tried it again in Afghanistan after the Russians had tried and failed. Then in Iraq. Numerous other examples around the world. Doesn't work. Try it in Balochistan and you will have a full scale insurgency on your hands...

This is the best way to finish them off. If they are fighting amongst themselves we need to do all we can to inflame it. It's usually the beginning of the end when infighting starts.

You can't tell how warped these people are until you actually go and live amongst them. Fuxked up doesn't even come close.

He has had every obstacle put in his way by the bureaucracy and the political classes both within and outside his party. No one with any power wants change in Pakistan.

The silence on this thread is appalling. If this same priest had been killed in India, this same thread would have been 56 pages by now.

Thanks for that. I wanted to post a similar point but couldn't be bothered? These guys are nuts. I hope you didn't believe him. Which experts, what are their qualifications, who appointed them?

This sounds very similar to the vedic technology that the Hindu fundos keep going on about? Can you see where this is going? I've said it before, I'll say it again, religious fundamentalists of whatever ilk are just a different side of the same coin.

What is so surprising about a turkey not voting for Christmas?

The reason they have a propaganda lead on Pakistan is not because individual people choose to express their opinions according to their conscience on an open forum, it's because your governments and your institutions have been criminally negligent in doing the jobs they were either elected for...

I would like to condemn the killing of Father William Siraj. I express my condolences to and express solidarity with my Pakistani Christian countrymen and women.
