Dr Sabir Choudhry had recently assessed Pakistan with nukes, as a careless and mischievous child playing with a hand grenade in the middle of a crowded market place. He couldn't have been more right. Anyway, it is a pretty old article.

Ghulam Nabi Fai admits to receiving money from ISI ALEXANDRIA: In a federal courthouse, nearly two and a half hours after his case was scheduled to begin, Dr Ghulam Nabi Fai was brought into Courtroom number 501, filled primarily with his supporters and journalists from the subcontinent...

India's nuclear doctrine doesn't make a distinction between a tac nuke or a strat nuke, or for that matter a counterforce/value strike. The doctrine is pretty clear about it. If any nuclear device/bomb is exploded on Indian forces, irrespective of time and place, it will draw Indian nuke...

Firstly, India entered Junagadh on 9th Nov, while the Pathans, backed by PA and led by PA officers entered in Kashmir on 22 Oct, 1947, although the first such transgression by PA into Kashmir territory, then an independent Princely State, was recorded in the last week of August, 1947. Kashmir...

They are testing the missile, using AAD platform. The Prahar platform is probably not yet ready. (Guesstimation)

Both my parents' families are from Dhaka, Bikrampur. One of my paternal ancestors moved to Mymensingh and they stayed there till 1947. My mother's side moved to Kolkata sometime around 1905-06. Yours truly was born and brought up in Kolkata.

Chathamhouse poll, financed by none other than Gaddafi, says something else: Independence: Join Pakistan: Join India:

Now comes the refutation of refutation of Aatish Taseer. Posting without highlighting. --------------------------------------------------------------- RECOMMENDING AATISH TASEER - Alamdar Mengal It was interesting to come across some Twitter reactions to Mr. Aatish Taseer’s boldly...

That is a ridiculous justification. But as always, it works both ways. India is then justified for doing what you accuse India of. Which people? How do you even know they were expecting to be part of Pakistan? Or am I missing something?

India had held on to the funds because Jinnah had ridiculously demanded half of all the funds plus a compensation for the mills that Pakistan would be loosing out due to the partition. Obviously India held back.

If Jinnah had any intention to honour pre-partition agreement between ML and Congress then he wouldn't have accepted Junagadh's accession. Later on he had justified his action, by dismissing such agreement between two political parties as non-binding on sovereign States. Those were not Princely...

Incorrect. Pakistan never proposed, neither did Jinnah accept, a plebiscite in Kashmir, Junagadh and Hyderabad, when it was offered by Mountbatten on 1st Nov, 1947.

Some people have so much time on their hands that it is almost a crime.:angry:

Btw, Boishakhi TV is still available on my cable.

I am willing to wager both my testicles that if Pak accepts LoC as IB, India will grab that with both hands any day of the week and thrice on Sunday, whether or not the alphabet soup of militant groups, operating from inside Pak, is 'tackled'.

Firstly, how would an independent body e.g. UN or Amnesty gather such data without active GoI support. Secondly, careful with that line of argument. That door swings both ways. GoP data of '35,000' civies dead in Pak's WoT will also be bunkum by that logic.

Your leaders are on record admitting use of terror against Indian interest. Notice how Musharraf evades the 2nd question. Then there was this boastful declaration by Benazir, how she had handed over a list of Khalistani terrorists to Rajiv Gandhi. Search the net and you will find plenty that...

No need to conflate. The point was if instantaneous change of intent is possible in a parliamentary system as opposed to a dictatorial or de-facto dictatorial regime such as Pakistan, except in case of exigencies. Your nuclear deterrence, coupled with India's severe lack of logistics, as was...

The argument of instantaneous change of intent is bogus. A strong parliamentary democratic process will ensure that there is none, except where there is blatant provocation from Pakistan, and a genuine lack of logistics will do the rest. If it still doesn't, the presence of Pakistani nukes will...
