I only smoke tobacco from a pipe. Call me old fashioned. I have nothing to gain from India or Pakistan. I am just saying, within the India-Pakistan narrative and context, India has nothing to worry about.

Balochistan and the tribal areas are completely out of control. I don't know where some people get the fortitude to say they will strike and carve up Afghanistan when they are not welcome in their own country.

You can't have official relations or bilateral discussions with terrorist organizations in the same way you can have with legitimate entities. Pakistan is the one who needs Indian support at this time, not the other way around. India can literally conquer Pakistan by closing it's eyes and...

I hope they immigrate out of there. They needed smart people because of the complexity of the mission. Otherwise using brain dead goat fuckers to kill kids is good enough for them.

The only way to do that is develop friendly ties with Afghanistan and with the world in general. Making peace with India would be a big help. That's why the Taliban in Afghanistan denounced the attack. They need the anti-India sentiment to continue swelling their ranks and giving them...

Pakistan missed out on this opportunity long ago when it was still unsure whether the Taliban were pure Muslims or just confused Muslims. Strategic Depth should have been used vis a vis ISAF.

Northern Alliance was disbanded shortly after 2002. Furthermore, Turkey supported them more than India ever could.

If I had a nation, the last thing I would impose on it is Islam. The "Islamic Republic" of Pakistan needs to re-orient itself. Dropping Islam from your laws and policies would be a helpful start in the war against Islamists. Curious that the Taliban are fighting to implement an Islamic state...

Wahhabism was not created with anyone's help. Yes the British utilized the Wahhabists against the Ottomans eventually. Are you telling me that the British converted "moderate Muslims" to Wahhabism through their superior knowledge of Islam? Come one mate, that's a really nut job theory.

We profit immensely from China's economic rise. But the correlation between Chinese economic power and it's ability to counter American influence has not manifested and will not in the future because you need friends.

Wahhabism is not a creation of the British. Wahhabism was a problem that affected the Ottomans and they stamped it out 3 different times. They never blamed the British. It is a manifestation of what is intrinsically wrong with orthodox interpretations of Islam and the Koran and it materialized...

Russia has opened up its flanks in Ukraine. No one is going to send troops to Russia, but Ukraine has a legitimate cause to bombard Russian positions outside of Ukraine and their agents in the East which of course is unfolding daily. The west won't interfere and nuclear war will be avoided while...

The U.S. and her allies will balance out China's economic influence. China has no friends with deep pockets.

Yes, the majority of the United Nations views it as a barbaric breach of international law. The West didn't interfere because we don't want to start a world war. We will help Ukraine weather the storm. The Russians will be starved out of Ukraine eventually once their economy collapses.

It also discredited their ambitions for independence. Ultimately, Chechens themselves started killing the Wahhabist Chechens.

The world recognizes it as an occupation. Things can change, it's only Russia.

Putin has exposed Russia's weaknesses while making temporary gains. He should have kept quiet and developed Russia. Snatching Crimea will be the death of Russian imperialism.

Is there a way for westerners to donate directly to the victims families? I know a few dollars can go a very long way, but I don't want my money being used for corruption. Does anyone have any suggestions? I would like to help.

If the state is not able to teach you morals, patience, tolerance, and a thirst for knowledge and helping those around you, that is when Madrassahs start going up. If the state is not able to help find you employment, develop your skills, and make you feel like you are part of the national...

Turkey has a unique position regarding this. Fully pursue it my brothers, but don't get caught up in something that will entrench you in someone else's policy visions. In the very recent past, Turkey has become an enemy of Israel. Our goal is not to free Palestine, because we all know what...
