    What have we done to ourselves?

    We will have to agree to disagree on this. The genie was long out of the bottle on this issue. Not like it could suddenly have been put back around 1947. Jinnah was not going to be there on the scene forever, nor was Gandhi, Nehru, Maulana Azad & Patel. If there was a civil war that happened...

    Indian writers guilty of double standards when it comes to dissent: Taslima Nasrin

    Assuming you mean Vithasha, Sobhana is the actress/dancer mentioned in an earlier post.

    Indian writers guilty of double standards when it comes to dissent: Taslima Nasrin

    That was Sobhana's opinion, take it up with her.:lol: I was merely pointing out the absurdity of asking people questions on the subject. Btw, when one reads more than the headline, it is far more nuanced. She is supposedly returning it in protest that the killers of Kalburgi have not been...

    India's extremist elements don’t want improved ties with Pakistan: Basit

    As@GURU DUTT said, a bit rich to talk about other elements being extremists because they don't want improved ties between Pakistan & India when he, as a representative of the GoP and acting on orders, deliberately took any chance of improved ties off the table with the invitation to the Hurriyat.

    Pakistan may boycott 2016 World Twenty20 in India

    I agree that there is no end to this, so let me end with a wish - I wish that circumstances exist where we only fight about cricket & both of our people make good money....:)

    Pakistan may boycott 2016 World Twenty20 in India

    The Indian board clearly mentioned that any & all tours are subject to government approval.It is not for the BCCI to do foreign policy. You talk about principles so much, why did your PCB surrender its principal objection to the Big 3 the moment India offered to send some money its way. Either...

    Pakistan may boycott 2016 World Twenty20 in India

    Regardless, why was that (India Playing you) your condition? Money? Simple as that. If it doesn't bother you, why are your officials literally begging one minute following by threatening if India does not play you & then come back to begging? The reason my dear chap is about $50-80 million...

    Pakistan may boycott 2016 World Twenty20 in India

    You are worrying about India's principles? Why did you beg India to reward you with a series anyways? Comes down to the money, you want it & it can only be got by India playing you. No matter how much you dance around it.

    Pakistan may boycott 2016 World Twenty20 in India

    I don't agree with the tactics of the Shiv Sena but cricket seems to be the one area where Pakistanis feel the pinch. I simply see no reason not to use that lever. It may not & probably will not make any difference to how they behave in matters relating to terrorism but this is a good cost to...

    Pakistan may boycott 2016 World Twenty20 in India

    There was a clear clause that it depends on government approval. BCCI can't overrule the GoI. Your support was not as relevant as you make it out to be, it was a done deal no matter what. In any case, I don't understand the Pakistani position - it is alright to put off trade because you...

    Pakistan may boycott 2016 World Twenty20 in India

    Wishes are not horses........Nobody is about to humour you on that. India is the key to making money , it is also why the PCB is so desperate to play India. Pakistan threatening to boycott will scare no one, it is they who will face the full brunt of any such act.

    Pakistan may boycott 2016 World Twenty20 in India

    There has been condemnation but what it is exactly that the Shiv Sena did? Heckle? Hardly something to go overboard about. They didn't even lay a hand on the BCCI chief, they knew would would follow if they did. They are well within their rights to protest both the PCB officials presence in the...

    Australian harassed in Bengaluru over tattoo

    It does turn out that he is aware (seems he is a fan of Hinduism & has a Ganesha tattooed on his back) but he simply didn't have any other place to put the tattoo since all available skin was already used up. (he's covered in tattoos) Also the guy studied in India & has lived for quite some...

    You are overreaching in my opinion & I didn't call you anything, don't know where you picked that bit up.

    Australian harassed in Bengaluru over tattoo

    Btw, the guy seems to be some kind of a fan of Hinduism and he supposedly studied in Kodaikanal and has a tattoo of Ganesha on his back too. Seems he ran out of space on his body to put this tattoo up.....:lol:
