Not necessarily the number, but the yeild is also important - anyone know any rough estimates of what yeild Pak & India may have of their nukes? If we get a few high yeild nukes, we can stick with a small number, e.g. 80-90 and can turn our attention to nuclear power, something we actually need...

Guys, I was just thinking - I've heard the Greeks are seemingly intending to sell one of their Papanikolis class (U-214) subs, due to their debt crisis. If this is true, is there any chance that Pakistan could potentially get this sub? If we can get this, along with an order of 3 U-214s from...

I voted Pakistan, but I'd have preferred if you'd have put the option "both". This is awar for America, Pakistan and to an extent, a large part of the world. Not just us.

All Pakistanis who support the Taliban should move to North Waziristan and Orakzai and live with the Taliban. If these sympathisers' heads start rolling, they may understand what these people represent. See what happened to Khalid Khwaja.

This may have been the most ironic event in Pakistan's history, had Hamid Gul been abducted with these guys. Supposed Taliban sympathisers abducted in exchange for other Taliban.

This wishlist will not suit Pakistan at all. Firstly, 8 more Agostas will likely cost well over $1billion, which is too much, considering the amount the navy will likely have to spend to maintain all the other ships and train crews. If they build 8 more Agostas and buy nothing new, then our...

I'd just buy lots of stock at the KSE in businesses doing well (or with enough, just buy the entire market) and then when it's time to return the money, sell it all, then keep the profit.

Congrats to the police for finding this, but how the hell did these people get 1500kg of explosives into the city? It seems the police aren't vigilant enough at the checkposts to me.

Anyone know who this Muhammed Rafiq is? Is he a government linked commander or just another TTP leader?

I think the fact that the government changed and the country's main defence related focus has shifted from India to the Taliban for the time being has also likely delayed these deals. A lot of many may have been spent to train soldiers in COIN and also better programmes & equipment for the FC...

http://www.dawn.com/wps/wcm/connect/dawn-content-library/dawn/news/pakistan/03-taliban-confirm-hakeemullahs-death-ss-01 KARACHI: Taliban confirmed on Tuesday that TTP Chief Hakeemullah Mehsud was killed in a drone attack in Shaktoi village. Noor Jamal has been named as the new Taliban leader.

I believe that's true. Doctors and engineers are often held in high regard in the Islamic world due to the nature of their work and are very well respected. The OBL & Zawahiri thing has been mentioned on news channels before.

Judging by the rate the Afghans seem to be losing their weapons and they end up back in Pak, I wouldn't be surprised if our own G-3 rounds end up being used against us.

I heard on Dawn News I believe, that some terrorists whose bombs went off while they were making them in KHI were from Swat. The government should perhaps have kept a tighter watch on all IDPs and especially those who moved to other cities to settle.

Please read the link provided by Agnostic in which an Afghan Taliban speaks about their fighters going into our territory to fight our army. If you won't accept that both Taliban factions are one and the same atleast accept that there are elements in the Afghan Taliban who are against the...

Wanted Militant Commander Killed in Swat DAWN.COM | Provinces | Troops kill wanted terrorist commander in Swat He was the nephew of Sher Mohammad Qasab. Another one bites the dust.

He's out of Aiwan-E-Sadar quite often, actually - I think he's already gotten 2x as many airmiles as our foreign minister, incidentally the guy who should be travelling the most.
