We love our ancestry, traditions, values, languages and history. We deplore the artificial and utterly meaningless categorisation as "Indian". We have our shared pasts and a lot more that is not shared. The problem is that Indians cannot respect their neighbours identities and feel the need to...

You missed the part where US intelligence invited Osama to Afghanistan and made him the most powerful person there with considerable resources (Saudi funds in a dirt poor country) and thousands of men (entire AQ army with CIA training, at the time) at his disposal. The arrogance on display here...

Taliban have majority Pashtun support. They will vote for Taliban. Americans installed the government. And then you are wondering why others call it a puppet government with no legitimacy?

Our claim is justified by the actual presence of the Indus river and Indus valleys within our borders. Besides, all of our provinces and lands are already represented in our name. Maybe India needs to consider representing the remaining 97% of its population and stop obsessing over Pak.

What do you think an actual democratic outcome with full Pashtun participation would entail? "Installed" their government... Good choice of words. Freudian slip?

Their plan all along was to quell the insurgency and have a few permanent US bases to coordinate and direct further missions and operations. They must take everyone for complete and utter idiots to even propose this idea. Sure, lets have "peace" only to allow US intelligence and army to continue...

*whooosh* If you are having to use your full force against a civilian population, then you have already lost.

There is a fourth time tested option. Both the Americans and the Soviets lost in Afghanistan because their presence was unacceptable to the majority. Things will only get more expensive from here.

You know something is wrong when over 2 billion people on the planet can identify with the Indus river of Pakistan.

Why do you instantly assume that peace and conflict resolution in the region means India losing in some way? I mean, you are right on the mark but it just seems like a self defeating position to take.

Funny, thats what the Soviets and Americans hoped for too... but its very telling that this is your best case / optimistic scenario. Good night.

Literally describing your own occupying force rather than a Kashmiri civilian movement.

Where he was representing Turkey. How on earth does that make him an Afghan national? The name Pakistan clearly offended you.

Happens in every country. Every single one. Even the Vatican.

You must really enjoy making up things and then pretending to be outraged at your own made up things. Keep up the saltiness. This idea is thinking out of the box and infinitely better than taking out more loans to pay for previous loans.

Looks like you want him to be Pakistani. Why are so upset about this?

A Pashtun Muslim from Peshawar, British India (modern day Pakistan). What part of this confuses you?

“India is no more a single country than the equator" - Winston Churchill A similar masterpiece of a name that originated in Latin but then further developed by the British is "Orient". A meaningless name that only a delusional and confused state would willingly name itself The Republic of...

Looks like a nordicist map. Proto IE people originated from a very specific place in Central Asia/Southern Russia. Northern Europe was invaded too, just like Middle East and Indus valley.

No doubt Atif if a brilliant person but he stopped being the "best man for the job" the moment his religion became the source of negative attention, hate and blackmail by our rabid fundamentalist nutjob community sitting in powerful positions. Given his professional background I would have loved...
