    Do Pakistanis Really Want Change?

    if every one does an honest day's of work, it will get fixed within our lifetimes. thing is, honest work is penalized and dishonesty is rewarded. so the negative cycle is getting stronger. the more positive cycles are built, the stronger and more prosperous we become. even if IK (or anyone...

    Why India’s ‘Unprovoked Firing’ at the border has stopped?

    some industries that PA is indulging in, have nothing to do with "military". calling it "military industrial complex" is rather sly. I see what you did there though. good one! this was the reason used by the PA - and it does work for sure - for the army to keep pace with a bigger adversary. the...

    India's Defence Ministry approves fourth 'positive indigenisation list' to boost local manufacturing

    a serious question the report says this is the 4th list? 3rd list? - is there a proper quantifiable data that can show the effect of the earlier lists? - have the imports truly stopped or were they labelled as something else and imported? - is there a replacement manufacturing of those...

    Radical Islamists storm supreme court after Imran Khan is released

    I guess the thinking was: The people protesting against IK's release were liberal and progressive So if we have the opposing forces to be 'islamic', it would be tough to counter them. After all, you can't really counter an Islamic argument against anyone.

    India cannot defeat Pakistan militarily

    so why will they mobilize force first? wont they use missiles/ aircraft etc to make small gains? most pakistan cities are close to the border anyways. they dont need to take entire pakistan in one go. and even if they did, they only need punjab - rest isnt really much. if you consider that -...

    PDF = CDF ( Callousness Defense Forum ) ?

    @jamahir are you considered a Muslim if you do not observe fast on Ramadan? I know you think this is "ritualistic" but isn't there a religious angle to having at least some time period of shared fasting to increase camaraderie?

    Why the rich west never comes up with anti money laundering laws to stop the pillage of third world and money ending in the west.

    ha, that's pretty easy to answer will you stop the flow of money, if its coming from someone you DONT want to get stronger/richer? that's like not just stopping them from being/getting rich, but getting the benefit of becoming wealthy at their cost.

    India Takes Anti-Israel stand at UN; Votes in favour of UNHRC Resolution against Israel

    Ok. I was confused of India's stance alright, but even more confused with the reaction here. If India would vote in favor of Israel, then "look they hate Muslims" (justifiable) If India votes for Palestinians cause then "look India doesn't have a spine AND India hates Muslims" I mean.. what...
