Maybe I'm a slow learner, but I can't understand why emergency was needed right now. Is it because of the ongoing trouble with extremists in tribal areas or because Musharraf got an inkling that the Supreme court could rule against him in the appeal challenging the legitimacy of his candidacy...

I didn't know you were an expert on IAF's operational plans.

They didn't have delta winged fighters in the 1940s. They didn't have operational jet fighters till the Me-262 and it looked nothing like the LCA. I understand your irresistible desire to mock India and its products but I guess you'll have to do better than that. :P

There are very few atheists in India and every movie's got to have a villain.So that villain must naturally be of some religion. How does that automatically be insulting to the entire religion? Besides Islam is not just YOUR religion. There are more muslims in India than in your country. Don't...

Each one of those points in the post which you have quoted has been mentioned by atleast one pakistani member of this forum at some point of time in some or the other threads.I have seen them with my own eyes. I chose to ignore those comments because I understood that the person making those...

Are the Hadith's the Islamic counterparts of Gospels in Christianity?

The Jamaican police have made themselves the laughing stocks of law enforcement agencies worldwide. The completely messed up the investigation. In the days following the murder/death they were coming up with a new cause of death almost every day. I expect this inquest will have similar results.

Its the TINA factor--"There is No Alternative" Not my phrase of course. I heard it from an Indian politician when the Congress and BJP were engaging in their usual mud-slinging fests.

Let's assume for a moment that Hazrat Ayesha was indeed nine years old when the marriage was consummated. Even so, if anyone tries to justify child marriage on those grounds today that would still be wrong.Wouldn't it? And it'd be our duty to try and stop the perpetrators So there is no need to...

Are you suggesting that the USA was involved in Zia's death? I am not challenging your claim.But its an interesting (and acc to me unlikely) theory.

Solid Snake, "You may belong to any religion or caste or creed that has nothing to do with the business of the State ". This sentence of Muhammad Ali Jinnah seems to emphasise the fact that he wanted Pakistan to be a secular state. Then why did it actually become the Islamic...

I am glad the PA is killing those taliban fanatics in the tribal areas. But won't air strikes cause a lot of collateral damage?

Anyone realize how this nonsensical post turned one of the rare threads where Indians and Pakistanis were actually agreeing with each other into an all-out flame war? Nice going Jana ji. WRONG. Pakistanis=Muslims(and non-Muslims whom you completely forgot by the way) who live in Pakistan...

For god sakes the taliban regime was harbouring international terrorists.That's why they had to go.That's why NATO had to attack them. The current mess which you referred to is caused by your beloved Taliban themselves, not by the americans.

This looks like a typical "Blame it on the CIA" anti-US rant. Just curious about why you felt it was important enough to post here coming as it did from a fanatic like Hekmatyar.

And who is responsible for there being no peace in Afghanistan? NATO? Well you could very well lay the finger on the ones fighting them. Face it, afghanistan never really had true peace.It seems the people were always interested in fighting amongst themselves.After the soviets left, there was...

This doesn't really concern me or my country but your post really amused me. Are you really saying that a handful of Taliban fighters can "take the offensive into the heartland of Pakistan" and the Pak army will be powerless to stop them?? I admit the taliban are a difficult bunch to fight in...

Funny! They claim to be fighting for Islam and yet they kill hundreds of Iraqi Muslim civilians with suicide bombings in public places and even Mosques. What these idiots don't realize is that if there were no militants and terrorist strikes in iraq the americans would have left long ago, after...

Retaliate?? Against the tourists? Were they shooting you with pea-shooters or something? Are you so frustrated about not being able to dislodge the Indian soldiers from the glacier that you now want to kill harmless tourists who have no way of fighting back? Munir was suggesting targetting the...

The fact that ours are developing countries does not provide us with a shield from attacks from our neighbours. Fingers have been pointed at India for worsening the security situation in S.Asia in this thread(post no. 4). We have two hostile nuclear armed countries on either side , one of which...
