    England Cancels Pakistan's Cricket Tour Due to Security Concerns

    Pakistan really needs to focus on domestic sports - cricket, hockey, football, etc. Forget about hosting foreign teams. Forget about visiting other countries.

    Pak vs NZ: New Zealand team cancels Pakistan tour

    Christian Turner chose his words carefully. The British High Commission may have not been involved. But British intelligence certainly could have advised NZ of potential threats. And of course the decision was made by NZ authorities independently, regardless of the source of their "intelligence".

    BBC had to mute Christine Fair given her anti-Pakistan rant

    The BBC host actually did C. Fair a favour by cutting her off. She sounded like a conspiracy nut with some outrageous theories about Pakistan wanting Afghanistan to always remain unstable. No serious academic or analyst would give weight to such theories. Her visible hatred for Pakistan's...

    The US military left expensive aircraft in Afghanistan, and the Taliban is upset that none of them work

    This is damage control by the US. The equipment may not be operational now. But to say that something will never fly/work again is BS. The Taliban may not have the parts or expertise to make them, but they do have neighbours who may be willing to help them. Worst case scenario for the...

    TTP is not our concern, but Pakistan’s: Afghan Taliban

    If I were him, that is exactly what I would say too. He is confirming that TTP has no connection with TTA, and will not enjoy their protection or assistance. Pakistan can do with them as they please. Surely he cannot be expected to say that his government will help a foreign country deal with...

    Hall of Shame : Tarek Fatah; Tahir Gora; Hussain Haqqani et al

    These guys have no principles. Their only goal is to somehow damage Pakistan. I recall seeing an interview of Tarek Fateh where he was ridiculing and condemning NS, when he was PM. Then recently he was talking of him as some sort of a champion of democracy, and even equated Maryam with Joan of Arc.

    Featured Pakistan wants to be treated like an ally, not a scapegoat - Washington Post

    I honestly do not wish to see the demise of the US as a powerful stabilizing force in the world. I shudder to think of a unipolar world with China at the helm. Unfortunately, over the last century the US has been more of a powerful destabilizing force - from South America, to East Asia, to the...

    Featured Pakistan wants to be treated like an ally, not a scapegoat - Washington Post

    The US sits in judgment of everyone else through its lists, pronouncements, and sanctions, implying it's own moral superiority, much like a judge in a court of law. So the analogy holds. That said, I do not expect the US to change its policies towards Pakistan, not for any price that Pakistan...

    Featured Pakistan wants to be treated like an ally, not a scapegoat - Washington Post

    Your question is what Pakistan can offer, for the US to be fair and truthful. Is there a price for justice and truth? Its like a judge asking the accused, "what can you offer, so I may give you a fair judgment?" Right, and the US is a notoriously unreliable ally.

    Afghanistan has broken chains of slavery - PM Imran Khan

    My 2 cents about speaking a non-native language. As long as you speak a language that is not yours, you will always be at a disadvantage. If you're not a native speaker, with a very few exceptions, you will always have an accent, you are more likely to make some grammatical errors, and you...

    India at the Olympic: why no one ever considers the genetic angle?

    This has to do with the lack of financial and physical infrastructure, lack of science based training methods, culture, and poverty. All of these things can change, and if/when they do, the medals will come. Case in point: China. Here is China's medal count from 1984 to 2021 Genes do play a...

    How to Turn Sea Water Into Fresh Water Without Pollution

    According to this video, they have solved one of the two big problems with desalination. They have found a way to heat up the seawater using solar energy, rather than dirty fossil fuel energy. That is a big win, though hardly ground-breaking. The other problem, is what to do with the brine...

    PTI set to form next AJK govt after clinching most seats

    I went to the election commission's website at https://ec.ajk.gov.pk/election-results and pulled the data of the first 10 constituencies (didn't have time to do the rest). Here is the result: As you can see, the number of votes does not correspond to the number of seats. For example, despite...

    Featured Former Diplomat’s Daughter Beheaded Over Breakup In Islamabad

    Nothing the girl did justified what he did to her. She may have made mistakes, but then who hasn't. May Allah forgive her and grant her jannah. And may He give us the wisdom to not sit in judgment of everyone else.
