Agnostic Muslim, they say that sometimes the ends justify the means. Here you are ignoring the end altogether - a progressive Afghanistan with a democratic government, and quite conveniently I might add, in order to force some moral equivalence between Pakistani and American actions. Sure...

Is that so. If they simply clapped and shouted, is that even a breach of the IPC? Indians are well within their rights to jeer Pakistan IMO. Though if they were Sri Ram Sena people then after the Bangalore incident I wouldn't be too happy about what happened.

Wow, where do you get this stuff? Intriguing...

Well clearly Karzai is much more desirable than Pakistan's previous choice - Mullah Omar. Less said about him the better.

People were against Taliban in Bajaur? From what I read the PA had to flatten quite a few villages in order to drive the Taliban out of there...

Well, who would have thought that Italy, the very heart of Catholicism would be a democracy? And yet they managed it. They confined the remnants of the Holy Roman Empire to a tiny "Vatican City" and built the modern Italian state around it. I'm quite sure such a solution is possible in...

I think it was quite obvious from the start that the militants had no intention of keeping up their end of the deal. They are not accountable to anybody so why should they bother? They will keep their weapons, do exactly as they please, regroup, rearm, finance themselves by extorting the...

Alright, is the joke over yet?

Great post Energon.

I'm sure the 'real' Sharia, whatever it is, is fine and great and works perfectly. However, this is the 21st century and any country which wants to progress has to move beyond these religion-based laws. You admire the Chinese so much so why not learn from them? They've thrown religion out of...

Well you brought up Bangladesh, but never mind. No Agnostic, it does not include Pakistaniat. That is because the Taliban do not claim to represent Pakistan, only puritanical Islam. I also do not see any outrage towards the Afghans at all. Perhaps outrage towards the Afghan government...

I think its best if we avoid discussion regarding Bangladesh, so moving on: 'They are our Muslim Brothers'. That is not an appeal to liberal humanism. That is an appeal to religious identity. Isn't that obvious? The Taliban, however ruthless they are. However many people they kill, how...

And this is where, Mr. Agnostic Muslim, you lose your judgment. Lets put aside East Pakistan because the racial overtones of that genocide are too glaringly obvious to be ignored. Let us also stop fooling ourselves about the non-violent varnish that you are trying to paint the Pakistani...

Why haven't they been banned yet? Where's the secularism that the Congress keeps trumpeting?

Ahem - human rights anyone?

Latest from Pak: No Indian hand in Lankan team attack NDTV Correspondent, Saturday April 11, 2009, Islamabad A day after the Lahore police said that there was evidence of an Indian involvement in the attack on the Lankan cricket team, Pakistan Interior Ministry has said that there is no...

I agree with wtf. The Taliban's puritnanical thrist will never be satiated. They will keep demanding the "true" sharia.

Well my heartiest congratulations to the Taliban. Looks like they have finally found a new home after being chased out of Afghanistan. Good for them.

Well, isn't that cute! Why should Afghanistan have to suffer Pakistani meddling? Its true that the situation in Afg. is adding fuel to the fire in Pak, but that's hardly an excuse for being unable to police your own borders. Pakistan could go it alone, and possibly that would mean an end...

ISI cleansed of extremist supporters? ISI cleansed of extremist supporters? Mon, 13 Apr 2009 00:34:17 GMT Pakistan's Foreign Minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi hints the government will cleanse its Inter-Services Intelligence from pro-extremist elements. "Now we are in the process of...
