Pakistani are already doing that, but what is the point if there are no opportunities for them? That's the problem. They are plenty of smart and talented Pakistanis but many are working overseas where opportunities are better. I worked with many myself. The only problem is that once they settle...

Interesting. Ever since the end of the Cold War, the US has been pushing the EU to contribute to its defense rather than relying on the US. But they never bothered to change their ways because why bother? The Yanks will always defend us even if we call them every name in the book. They enjoyed...

Compared to Trump, Biden is a complete failure in foreign affairs. He alienated the Gulf states when he needed them the most, squandering much of the goodwill created by Trump. Now he's going on a begging trip to convince the Saudis to pump more oil.

Indian or Pakistani, it doesn't matter. He was a horrible person from top to bottom. He was Holmes's hatchet man. I would recommend reading the book Bad Blood.

Nowhere in the US Constitution states that abortion is a right. Roe vs Wade was a SCOTUS that "interpreted" that abortion was protected by the constitution. It was a slippery slope from the start. The fear of being overturned was always there. Now, it has been overturned. All I can say about it...

She's a foreign national who admits she doesn't prepare properly. Look what she had to get the paperwork to get insurance! Immigration and customs officers are the same everywhere, surly and demanding. Trust me when I traveled to India and Bangladesh, at times, they made my life hell. Just do...

I don't know what Indians you are talking about (imaginary ones, I suppose), but they are not disillusioned about where India is heading. On the other hand, Pakistanis like you are not only disillusioned but delusional. Pakistan's current political and economic state does not give anybody...

Are you in a COVID quarantine? I think lengthy isolation makes people delusional. Or you are smoking some strong stuff. The things you mentioned have already been tried and failed. Your idea of creating public pressure on Israel is also hair-brained. No one in the West is going to support...

I did not make the comparison, the OP did. The author said it was a double standard. My post was to explain why this is so. I would like to add that life is unfair, doubly so for international relations.

Bangladesh and Pakistan are not on India’s level. You may not like it but it's true.

Who cares what China thinks or wants. More butthurt, I guess. Proves what many think about China: stealer of IP. Thanks for the confirmation.

High-speed rail is a loser. It's expensive to build, even more, expensive to operate and maintain, and it doesn't even make money to pay its bills, requiring massive government subsidies to balance its books. Even in countries where high-speed rail is popular, many are losing money. Honestly...

How much was she paid to represent China? We all know the Olympics was nothing but a propaganda exercise for China, so having Eileen Gu win gold medals fits this narrative. Regardless of what she did for China, and the riches that come with it, she decided to return to the US. This is giving...

She's an opportunist. She is loyal to no country other than herself. That the Chinese thought she was one of them proved that they, too, were taken for a ride.

Why blame Donald Lu at all? He doesn't set a policy regarding Pakistan. That's the responsibility of the White House. Donald Lu was only following orders and not acting independently as IK implies.

Pakistan should change its name to Absurdistan. 🙃

What do you expect? The man is a product of dynastic politics. Unfortunately, his mother's untimely death pushed him early into politics. He shouldn't be the leader of his party let alone FM. I was surprised there was no one more qualified they could have picked like Sherry Rehman.

How is this any different under IK’s government? IK, Qureshi, and Bajwa all served the same role.

Dr. Moeed Pirzada offers the idea of talking directly to the American people too. I just don't think it will work because most Americans don't care, and those that do care have a negative view of the country. What Pakistan needs is an English-language television network to spread its narrative.

Pakistan also needs to tell its military to stop interfering in political matters and often acting as a parallel government.
