Afghanistan is the land that time forgot. A hopeless basketcase of a country that refuses to move into the modern age. All the forward thinking people are now either eradicated or moved abroad leaving the people no hope of social or economic progress. They now have their 7th century utopia...

There is always going to be a spectrum of opinion on any subject in any country, so there is with CPEC in Pakistan. To link the variance of opinion to the attacks on foreign nationals that have happened is stretching it. There is one reason and one reason only that these attacks take place and...

Not necessarily true, IMO.

It's all water under the bridge. Look at it this way, if we are Jinnah's children then you, the Bangladeshis are Jinnah's grandchildren. There will always be connection, which will grow with time, between Pakistanis and Bangladeshis.

That country is going to explode sooner or later and it won't be pretty. We need to make sure our borders are secure and our armed forces are at full strength when it happens to protect ourselves and to take full advantage of the chaos that will ensue.

All my life I've rooted for the Iranians as I have for any Muslim country, against the US, the West and the Israelis, all on the basis that they are a fellow Muslim country. No more. From hereon in, I will cheer any attack on Iran or it's assets. Iran cannot expect to run with the hare and...

If Pakistan didn't exist then these Indians would have to create one to deflect their problems onto it. Quislings like Awaisi will be nowhere to be seen when the shit hits the fan for the ordinary Muslims of India.

How do you suggest we deal with Iran taking the piss out of us on a regular basis. I'm a very patient guy but even I'm losing patience in the face of our soldiers getting slaughtered at the hands of scum that is being facilitated openly by the Iranians. I agree with you on that point but you...

I agree with you but can you imagine the reaction of the Mullahs and their zombie followers if Pakistan were to make peace with Israel?

Iran really has crossed all limits. I'm no Saudi lover but purely as a Pakistani I feel they need to be put in their place. They have acted without restraint and with impunity for far too long. I realise the implications of confronting them but confronted they must be. If they are going to...

@Musings . I'm glad this post wasn't totally wasted.

Yes, another great singer. I could mention many more great singers from that era.

I think I acknowledged that fact in the opening line of my post. I don't know if you are being sarcastic or whether you genuinely didn't know that Rafi Sahib was Punjabi. His extended family is living in Lahore.

I think that applies to Pakistanis and Indians. There is a lot of good things on both sides of the border. Most people think they are doing their country a service by criticising the other regardless of cause or merit. Hate is a poison, it kills from the inside. You cannot drink poison and...

I can't argue with your personal taste but it never hurts to give credit where credit is due. To withhold credit when it is due is small-time. Allah has blessed her with a fantastic singing voice just accept it as a blessing on one of his creation Your criticism (flat and artificial) comes as...

The line it is drawn The curse it is cast The slow one now Will later be fast As the present now Will later be past The order is rapidly fadin' And the first one now Will later be last For the times they are a-changin'

This little Punjabi guy

In rightly mentioning the great iconic singers of that particular era, you ommited to mention the greatest of them all.

Save your bandwidth. These idiotic posts, suggestions, criticisms and politically biased rants aren't even worth a response.

That kind of equipment will be 2 a penny in Afghanistan. The whole Afghan army ran away barely 5 months ago and someone will be happy to sell their redundant equipment to whoever can pay. It's not a mystery nor does it mean the Americans are equipping them, if that was what you were meaning.
