Bhutto was the last straw that broke the camel's back, but that's all the worth of Bhutto in 1971 War, "a straw." East Pakistan always had a strong sense of Bangali nationalism and there was nothing wrong with it. The Pakistani establishment's propensity to interpret ethnic nationalism with...
I don't think Pakistan could have done anything about India's acquiring of Mirage-2000s. At the most, had PAF proactively acquired some Mirage-2000s before IAF did India might have thought twice before acquiring. But that doesn't mean that they wouldn't have acquired them at all. Subsequent to...
IMPO, Sheikh Rashid and Rehman Malik pretend to be more valuable and knowledgable than they actually are. Though Rehman Malik has been part of the security apparatus, unlike Sheikh Rashid. Guhar Ayub, Sartaj Aziz, and Jahangir Karamat are probably the only voices that may have been in on the...
As the previous thread on the subject was closed down by the mods/admin I thought this might be a better place to confirm this report:
Has it been confirmed that Khalifa Umar Bin Abdul Aziz's tomb has been desecrated and his body has been exhumed along with his wife's? Or is it fake news?

I think it would be better if PAF also raises its alert status as well. Not to intervene but ensure that India isn't going to carry out forward deployments against Pakistan in the guise of the Chinese threat.
But they are issuing the information, which too could be demoralising. If this is indeed not propaganda then they should back it up with evidence. Their own Mirages flying around does little. If you look at the opensource data you will realise that most of the major PLAAF deployments are in the...
Thanks for this. Not only European export controls laws were very weak back then but they also lacked interest in implementing more stringent measures. All you needed to do was find an apt contractor and leave the twisting and tweaking of the legal system to them. Their scientists were also...
ISIS did something similar with the grave and jast-e-khaqi of an As'habi (Rz) who supported Hazrat Ali (Rz). Both actions are extremely wrong & deplorable.
This essentially has nothing to do with Ertugrul. Any other Turkish play with a potential to hit ratings in Pakistan would have triggered the same attitude. Turkish plays come at a cheaper cost compared to local production and return a good revenue. This was previously the case with the Indian...
Or just take a leap on FC-31. The Chinese have picked up their pace with it. However, given the current economic and Covid-19 fallout situation I don't expect new fighter aircraft deal for the next few years. We have to push the JF-17 programme.
