On the dot! And I'm not very optimistic about the Pak population being able to clearly identify the causes and culprits. I fear for more instability in the coming months culminating in a coup by some party. These attacks are not random acts but very pre-planned and carefully thought out by...

A few months ago a couple of members harangued me for having suggested that there are many many interpretations of any books. All facts and phenomena are bi-polar or multipolar or relative. There are many possible views about any fact or phenomena. That is the answer and the challenge. There...

AM bhai, I'm running in hurry now, will come back later in the evening to reply. However I agree with the part quoted above. With that I might as well add that it is imperative that even the most uncomfortable truth is communicated amongst communities with explicit blankness minus the pious...

Prove what, my friend? That Mohammad did indeed replace the temple of early Arab pagans with what it is today - the Kaaba ? The first act of disrespect and violation of another mans faith by Muslims was indeed, most unfortunately for Muslims, performed by the man who preached the religion first...

Complain as much as Muslims might but the truth of the matter remains that everybody's actions are linked to their respective ideologies. The crusades are not denied their Christian origins nor are the Third Reich's atrocities denied their Nazi/Aryan foundations. What goes for the goose shall...

Vinod. I think we should stop lending dignity to these posts by answering them.

Shan, This is my last reply to you. I do not want this thread derailed at this juncture. You should read Kalam's Wings of Fire to understand how the IGMDP came about. I've asked you for the logic behind naming a missile after a King killed by his enemies but you seem to have ignored it. As...

Why would anyone name a missile after a King who ultimately was killed in battle! Besides, the IGMDP was drafted by Bharat Ratna Shri Kalam. He gave the names of the three elements namely Prithvi, Agni and Akash to three of the missiles included in the programme. Nag, the anti-tank missile was...

Mr Dawood, my dad-in-law -Pakistan-World-The Times of India There you go! Maybe you should ask who Junaid Miandad married! Portrait of a Don Thats from a Pakistani paper I believe. Denial is a river in Egypt eh!

I believe it is the systematic religion based post-conquest persecution of Hindu's and their continued suffering which was absent in the case of other invaders who readily assimilated and went on to enrich the native culture. Contrast that to the new invaders who won't let Hindu's enter one of...

He marched against the Delhi Sultanate as a Ghazi - the reason he stated was that the Delhi Sultans were too lenient towards infidels. Help yourselves with the Wikipedia. And notice the contempt he had for infidels and the glee with which he describes the slaughter of infidels in the book...

There won't be any need for links. However, as to the assertion that the brutality on the new invaders was somehow related to their nomadic lifestyles - I think its appears valid on the surface however while the Mongol's invaded for either money or territory the Islamic invaders of ancient India...

Agnostic. Of course, I'm sorry to have called you a liar. It baffles me that I should ask you for a clarification. How can the obvious escape your eye my friend ? Do you intend telling me that the problem with Pakistani text books, the national glorification of jihad were somehow kept away...

Agnostic. BBC NEWS | World | South Asia | US concern at Pakistan textbooks Daily Times - Leading News Resource of Pakistan http://www.sdpi.org/whats_new/reporton/State%20of%20Curr&TextBooks.pdf The SDPI report was written by Pakistani Muslims I think. I was going to quote the report...

Only if the French supply knocked down kits.

Two very important events I've missed from the folklore : The Sikh guru tortured and killed by the Moghuls. Directly lead to long lasting enmity between Sikhs and Mussalman. The riots in Punjab during the partition were horrifying. The twenty seven year war waged by Shivaji is next along with...

AM. I think you just mentioned the problem. Hindu's exist. As much as we have some noticeable Muslim rulers of the sub-continent a vast majority of them were always not so pleasant when dealing the native 'Hindu' population. The damn name 'Hindu' was given by the Persians and the Muslims...

It took an Operation Parakram to drag Musharaf to the TV station for a televised statement about why the Lashkar were bad and why he was going to ban them all. The American pressure is very much there as well.

Punjabis are different from the Sindhis - discount the religion,of course. In fact every province of Pak is populated by a different ethnic group. Baluchis, Sindhis, Punjabis, Pashtuns etc. Like what? Greater India was an idea proposed by RSS which was diametrically opposite to those who...

I don't know. Whats your silly obsession about color and skin anyway ? :lol: Is it like my obsession to count every spelling mistake you make?:tsk: My Pakistani girl friends all love me enough to cook my food, do my shopping. Shopping for clothes is a little confusing for me. Grass on...
