It would have been more realistic if he named his book "the audacity of the goat" instead of "the audacity of hope". Instead of bringing any change we were hoping from this moron, we look at Snowden mess, and other similar achievements.

I was recently allowed to leave the forced detention at a mental health facility after fifty days. During these fifty days, the psychiatrist saw me only four times. Only the first meeting was ten minutes long and rest of the meetings barely lasted a few minutes. Here are some of the sentences...

There has been a long standing debate in our nation's intelligentsia about changing the regular curriculum especially the way history and Islamic studies are taught in schools. Though there might be a need for changes in the above subjects, I see a far greater need for introducing a new subject...

This is so true for those politicians who had to spend a long time in jails and still did not bow before Musharraf's regime. We were able to witness strength of their character and sacrifices for the country when they remained steadfast in following their conscience rather than getting...

When some of our soldiers is martyred in Siachen, I know what that means for me and my country. If it were only such acts of bravery, I would be praising army all the time. One of my good friends and room mate at Cadet College Hasan Abdal, Azhar Iqbal Tarrar, was martyred in Siachen and I know...

It was not an insult. It was a very appropriate criticism that would be held by professional people of PA in high regard. When the right criticism is called insult, means you are being a toady and you are serving vesed interests. I used the right words. I hold the good of my country in high...

I never challenged their professionalism on the frontiers and this was not the purpose of any criticism ever. If it were only for combat capabilities in a war, I would only have praised them.

As regards the Indian Army, I do not know about their professionalism on the frontiers and how good they are in guarding them since I am not a military analyst. But within the category of "indulging in politics of the country" they are certainly more professional as compared to Pak Army. Our...

I doubt I categorically said that. I cannot recall.

You cannot cite anywhere I said that Pakistan army is unprofessional. However acts of sabotaging the democratic governments are certainly unprofessional. I truly hope that they have the capability to thwart any attack on our frontiers by some foreign army and this is where competence should...

It is not about rhetoric. Most intelligent and patriotic Pakistanis feel this dilemma. We want our country to progress, and we see that other nations in rest of the world are developing fast and we are left behind. We just saw China double its GDP in about four years. We bitterly want our...

This is very stupid of Iranians to try foreigners on religious charges that are frivolous at best. It earns their country a bad name and does not serve any good purpose at all. I really cannot fathom any wisdom behind such trials. If you do not like a foreigner, the worst your country should do...

I can recall my blog on this issue written about a year ago. Failure of Pakistan’s Institutions? Who is Responsible? | ahsanamin2999

You mean to suggest that I do not worry about the consequences of my writing. In other words, some general is going to get annoyed by my writing and start making their classic moves against me.

Since you did it right, you are not a hopeless case, I will have to take you step by step. Now let us find out if Imran Khan's PTI is in favor of trial of Musharraf and against martial laws. Please answer in 'Yes' or 'No'.

Your calculation is based on flawed premises like your arguments are. Recalculate the percentage while taking into account only registered voters, please.

Please do not be angry. We need mature, established and successful institutions in Pakistan. This could never be possible if the army continues to ambush governments elected by the people of Pakistan. If some politicians loot the country, why do you not release details of the loot in national...

Why would there be a coup? Meanings are that our Army is not professional. Though it has become too cliched to say this but it would mean that army would embark on the great and sacred task of conquering her own country. If there is a coup, there is a good possibility that coup members get tried...

I am glad that the government has decided to keep his name in the ECL. Commando just wanted to escape and run away. I also hope that the legal process completes its course and he gets the appropriate jail sentence for treason against the land of Pakistan. Otherwise people in uniform will...

It is absolutely the will of Indian people to decide for themselves their new prime minister and other leaders. I hope they make a wise and intelligent choice and it seems to me that they actually will make the right choice. And I hope that he does a great work towards prosperity and alleviation...
