Keeping beards (trimmed) should be allowed IMHO. I can't think of any army that insists on clean shaven personnel. However like long hair, keeping long beards should not be allowed as it does not conform to army standards anywhere !! Also , the muslim army person should understand that he is...

Modi is from BJP, correct ! Congress led by Mukherjee is on a warpath against Pakistan (Mostly for domestic consumption leading up to elections) Modi needs to diss Mukherjees efforts. Surely he cant say , go easy on Pakistan but he can try to discredit Congress efforts Just my thoughts on...

RK Ive seen rural India and Pakistan very closely (my ancestorial village and surrounds) and I have also seen rural China . There is a lot of similarities in both but overall , the Chinese seemed more well off (not by much , mind you ) . Cities are a different kettle of fish mind you. No...

Man, in rural India (and in Pakistan also I presume) , this is the best age to get married :lol: I know a 16 year old in rural India who thinks she is over the hill ! You know how is it with women (with their biological clocks ticking !! ) Not her fault anyways, most guys her age are already...

Now if he was really serious, he would have donated 1 billion Euros :lol:

Riyaz Ahmed Talukdar, a member of Jan Seva Sangh, a local NGO, had first spotted the tattoo on Saba’s back and informed his mother, Shabana Talukdar. Riyaz said, “When I saw the tattoo I was furious as holy words from the Quran were on her back.” Shabana, along with a few other women, then came...

Somewhat common practise in rural India. A girl is deemed 'mangalik' and her husband will die after marriage. Solution, marry the 'mangalik' girl to a dog,cat,frog whatever and the poor animal spouse will succumb (Where is the SPCA when you need them :victory:) Then the girl becomes cured...

To a neutral member, Shri Mukherjee behaviour at times is highly irresponsible , almost like a Donald Rumsfeld/Dick Cheney type character. By contrast, the Pakistanis from Zardari downwards have been extremly civil and diplomatic. Cmon , Pranab, a bit more civility won't hurt

Are the elections just around the corner ?? This statement seems to be made to discredit Congress efforts !

shChina Ive been to China, at least 20 times since 2000. Mostly to Shenzhen but also to Ningbo, Beijing etc. China has indeed done really well and Shenzhen in particular. My observations were Chinese were very industrious and abiding and very enthuastic about China's progress. A stark contrast...

My perspective As the largest nation in South Asia, India has to be seen as benevolent peace monger , as the nation, ready to do most for other smaller nations, so that historical animosity that exists are eradicated and peace returns to South Asia. Smaller nations to recipriocate 1)...

How exactly is this Jamaican brother furthering the cause of Islam ? Surely most muslims will find this repulsive if not downright embarassing !! I guess the BNP (British Nationalist Party) would be the only ones pleased as more white Brits , go to them after seeing this ! Secondly, this...

LOL This is so true. GI Joe who wanted to join the army to see the world. suddenly finds himself doing America's dirty job in a third world country!! He could see himself surfing at Miami beach rather than fighting a nation and people that he hardly understands nor cares about understanding !!

Democracy is all about freedom to choose your legislators. People who will potray your viewpoints or take care of your needs and wants. People have the right to choose the one to represent themselves, militant or otherwise. Just my two cents

What I find interesting Allegations made by a Managing director of a TV station. In my books, a person of a high calibre who would normally make such disturbing and macabre allegations ! whats wrong with you Pakistanis !! Surely a free nation should expose if such allegations do actually...

Isnt Hindutva a plank for Modi ! I dont think he needs Muslims support to win in Gujerat? I suppose Hindutva is his vote-bank. I like Gujeratis per se. They are innovative and hardworking outside Fiji :enjoy::cheesy:

At least he got a pair of shoes as a partying gift :taz:
