The idea is interesting and good that such thoughts are being discussed. However, I am firmly against nuclear power. The net energy, i.e. energy spent to extract energy, is very unfavourable and wasteful. I don't want any nuclear plants on the border or anywhere in the bar-e-sagheer for that...

Rest in peace Sepai Ikhlaq. May God have mercy on your soul.

Fauji Saahab you are a light that shines bright. Lets hope more people in our subcontinent and elsewhere start to see things the way they are as you do. Needless to say, the scientific achievements I have read about in the Muslim world, especially Persia, were great for their time. But the...

Does China really need all these dams to provide water for Tibet and the Uighur province? I don't expect the Chinese to take the Tibetans and Uighurs on board in any such decisions, but it seems they are doing this purely for geo-political reasons such as wanting to gain somewhat of a chokehold...

Not sure if you are Sikh, but the French gave a lot of assistance to the independent kingdoms such as Maharaja Ranjit Singh and Nawwab of Bengal when they were resisting Britain's imperialist expansion. It may have been for their own interest, but their almost always being on the side of...

I have always respected the Ba'ath party and Nasser for their anti-imperialist and Arab nationalist stance. I understand Ba'athist ideology had a strong intellectual and secular-socialist foundation, with one of the founders being Christianity adherent I believe, and proved itself to be relevant...

I came across this article in Telegraph India, where the Deputy chief of Russia's state arms exporter was fuming during a press briefing at the Aero show, and it got me thinking. This is but one latest example I've seen of signs over the past few years, much more than the 90s, that our...

I usually do not jump into these kinds of topics, so forgive my interference. But it interests me that you have an avatar of the, might I add violent, game 'Mafia' (of which the orchestral score is as beautiful as any I've heard btw). So video games are not haraam, correct? But music is? Where...
