Some of these people have probably never been to Pakistan and some are blatantly not even Pakistani! But that's the problem with the Ummah lovers today - they all think they have a right to decide what should happen in other people's countries.

To be fair, the govt has at least shown itself to be the good guys in this clash. They gave TLP every opportunity to compromise, Govt avoided violence, released protestors and leaders. They practically begged that they can fulfill every demand except the embassy closure one. But TLP decided to...

Wisest comment on this thread - depending on what colour you paint these faces they could be almost any race.

Bro kanjar behaviour is not the preserve of liberals - people in all echelons of society indulge in immorality. Most liberals I know are decent people, they pay their taxes, follow the rules and live their lives as they want. You are unhappy about maulvis being painted negatively, same applies...

Of course there are some you may call traitors - but that is no comparison to extremists who don't even believe in the nation state. Religious extremists will happily destroy Pakistan for the benefit of foreign ideologues. Eg. Non Pakistani criminals from Chechnya, Afghanistan etc are given...

You and others keep comparing TLP with evil liberals - as if they are on par. Millions of liberals live in Pakistan. The biggest danger they pose is candle-light vigils, social media posts and educated debate. On the other if you have even 1000 religious extremists in a city - it becomes...

There is a terrible habit in BD politics of trying to create permanent propaganda during govt terms. Renaming things after leaders, mazars in parliament, statues in public places are all part of the same problem. I wish they would let their achievements in power speak for them rather than...

This is, of course, timed propaganda to help the public accept the removal of Zia's shrine. But to be honest, it was always wrong to have the grave of a party leader on Parliament premises. At least in theory parliament should be independent - how can that be with one party leader cemented...

Where did he say 'short period' or you added that yourself? He said they have agreements in place. Means the money has not been pulled down yet. Loans are taken against projects - don't talk about loan only but forgetting what the money is used for. Please also tell me how stupid Japanese are?

You can wake a person from sleep but you can't wake a person pretending to be asleep. You keep repeating the same ideas even though they're refuted every time. You are comparing projections with actual debt. $49b is the actual debt. Pulling down project funding takes years - when the $95b...

Small homogenous States will probably work great for Punjab, Sindh - I e States with strong natural resources, decent levels of education, high levels of remittances. One can see those states flourishing in every respect. But for others like Balochistan and KPK. it'll be disastrous. They will...

Of course you're defending the law - you're citing religion to justify a law that is obviously impossible to apply fairly in Pakistan. You can't just apply religion in parts only - if you want to have a blood money system then it must go hand in hand with an incorruptible judicial system and...

You Indians have almost convinced yourselves that if it weren't for the mughals you'd have a perfect society - but Muntashir here, forgets that Indians have been torturing each other long before any invaders came along. Casteism, ritual humiliation of lower classes, misogyny - the writings of...

You've demolished your own argument with this. Every country has loopholes - but Pakistan has enshrined in law the right for a criminal to buy his way out of a crime. Wild guess which section of society this benefits most? I don't understand why you would defend such a law - while Pakistanis...

This is the norm everywhere else. Murder is not a 'private crime' that a father should be able to pardon it. The death of a person affects a family, a community and reaches far into society. The Govt is the one who prosecutes murder and they are the only ones who should be able to stop it...

Of course there is graft in BD. This project wouldn't move if the right people, at every level, didn't benefit personally. However, as far as I can see almost half the budget is for land acquisition. 523 crore for 123 acres of land. Over 4 crores per acre? Is that realistic? I suppose it is...

Its quite normal for a fast growing economy to lag behind in tax collection. It's also known that low tax rates improve the growth of GDP. So I'm not sure why, at this critical growth stage in BDs history, some forces are going on about tax collections. BD is focusing on increasing exports...

Only a baniya will see charging full price for the delivery of goods as 'help'. Don't worry, when Bangladesh and Bangladeshis stop spending on India (your 4th biggest export destination) - the Indian auqat will become apparent.

Did I ask WHY Indians didn't deliver? The horrific failure of India on covid weren't exactly a secret. What I want to know is why you shameless people are boasting about helping BD now.

You termites seem to forget that we paid for both oxygen and vaccines. Half of which you failed to deliver. But instead of hiding your faces in shame, you're here mouthing off. A truly grotesque peek into the Indian psyche. That was classic - "for free"! Indians dont provide oxygen to their...
