Very interesting piece on Trumps plan for Afghanistan...

Erik Prince’s dark plan for Afghanistan: Military occupation for profit, not security
Lost in the cascade of stories of potential White House criminality and collusion with foreign governments is the Erik Prince affair...
Incredibly childish reasoning on display here. Insurgencies are driven by ideology, not quick cash. No wonder India has managed to destroy Kashmiriyat. This is the only thing history will remember, not the petty arm chair suggestions on how to defeat stone throwing and angry looks.
They certainly seem to have a lot of the same enemies as US policy makers in Iraq, Syria and Afghanistan. I doubt the US controls Daesh, but if this was an Olympic sport it would be called Curling with terrorist groups
Hilarious. Its easy to assume things with the curfews, house arrests, lock-downs, media blackouts, internet ban, half a million troops "policing" the place. No one outside India falls for this North Korean style reporting. Western prisons have more rights than the people in Kashmir Valley.
To be fair, one half of their economy that is not funded by US government handouts relies entirely on smuggling and trade to Pakistan. A fence like this could collapse their entire economy so they might actually be serious about the military action.

Converting to Islam does not change the origins of the people who are still based around the Indus.
Indus Civilization literally means the civilization around Indus River. Unless you can physically move the Indus river along with all Pakistani cities, then stop sounding so flipping ridiculous. It just spells insecurity.
Hey guys. It seems I will be working on Wednesday. No way out. I do however get all messages to a certain email address of mine sent to my mobile as sms. Is there anyway to get the scorecard page of cric info emailed to me every 10 mins or so? Help would really be appreciated.
Edit____...
Pakistanis are descendants of the people of Indus Valley. None of your other silly statement matter. Do you really think the IV people were Hindi speaking, democratic, western influenced, multicultural and multi racial people like modern Indians? Civilisations change all the time, including...
