Faisal Iqbal is technically much more sound than Imran Farhat. Farhat comes forward to every delivery, and then moves back if it's short. He also shuffles across to the off-stump, which means that if someone can bowl quick enough, or bowl short and then york him, he's presenting a golden...

Yes, but special forces, tactical airlift and paratroops cannot be used to launch a significant thrust into Pakistani territory and occupy a large area, which is what Cold Start is all about. For that, you will need to mobilize infantry and armor, backed up with artillery, in significant...

blackbriar, stop whining like a child. Speak about the issue at hand, don't come in with your media-hyped propaganda trying to derail the thread. You're doing more damage to the Indians with this than good, don't let your country down like this. Show some self-control. Posts reported.

Please, batsmen. Do not let us down. Please. I'm never sure about Imran Farhat. He always seems to be jumpy, no matter if he's at 0 or at 90. We have three seemers, but your point is valid nonetheless. However, one could argue that the Australians do not have a seemer of the quality of Asif...

What a fantastic performance by Pakistani bowlers in the first session. Reducing Australia to 67 for 7 after 27 overs at Sydney, despite missing arguably the best bowler in the line-up! I just could not have hoped for a better start than this. When Ricky Ponting said "we'll have a bat" after...

You bring up a good point. Our concerns from the East have been questioned by some international diplomats as unfounded. They complain that we do not require as much caution on the Eastern front, and should commit more resources on the Western side. I remember someone saying that a figure of...

And the first thing you should do is understand what Gen. Majid has said. He has clearly stated that he does not believe that Gen. Kapoor would actually say something like this, and that this has probably been reported with added "mirch-masala" by the Indian media (not the first time, that's for...

We want to make your time on this forum enjoyable and informative. You are one of a few Russians we have here, so your input is always welcome. As far as I know, you have obeyed the forum rules and have quite a bit to share. Hence, if you find yourself or your country under attack needlessly...

It really is quite ridiculous the way Gen. Kapoor is choosing to behave. I used to think Indian military leadership was more professional than this. I guarantee this guy has political ambitions, otherwise, all this talking out of his behind just doesn't make sense. Chairman Joint Chiefs of...

Pakistan - World Twenty20 2009 Champions [Watch in HD] Very well made videos. Hoping and praying for a repeat performance this year, InshAllah.

Not top secret. Ground-effect-vehicles, as they are called, are quite well known in the world. I first came across them in high-school, when I saw a picture of a small Iranian GEVs; it's speculated that Iran plans on using them for kamakaze-style attacks on a naval fleet. Their biggest advantage...

Don't be so blinded by nationalistic pride that you demean your rival's efforts to make your own look credible. It's very childish, and could land you in a heap of trouble. When an Indian speaks of "duds", it's really quite funny. But we'll forgive the ourburst, that part of your brain where you...

No, I mean that many Pakistanis still feel that we should not have sent the Army into the region in 2005, when there were no attacks being carried out in Pakistan. Many Pakistanis feel that it was this US-pleasing act of Musharraf that has led us into this mess. In my opinion, that's only partly...

Solomon2, I suggest you read what Adm. Mike Mullen and Richard Holbrooke have to say about Pakistan's contributions. Just goes to show that not all Americans are arrogant ingrates, that's probably because some Americans can't forget about the war once their computer's shut-off, they've got to...

dez, stop spreading misinformation, it's become a bad habit. Also, stop speaking on behalf of all Pakistanis, you don't have that right. Imran Khan is not a "supporter" of Taliban, he is, however, sympathetic to their demands and anti-Army offensive, and for this, his popularity recently has...

Apart from condition number 3, I don't see much wrong in this. All we're asking is that the tribes ensure that non-state activities cannot emanate from within them. Point number 3, however, is a bit confusing. I'd like to know what is meant by "parallel administration and judicial system"...

Nobody is quite sure about the ToT thing yet, it's more speculation than anything, but it's been mentioned before. 36 jets is the first batch order, it will likely be expanded. Pakistan Air Force had originally planned to induct round about 100 F-16s, but couldn't do so due to sanctions. Our...

Hypothetically, maybe you are right, but that idea makes no sense in the practical Pakistan-India scenario. A carrier is a ship, it's objective is to provide air-power from the sea using movable airbases. If you want to destroy a ship, why would you try to match its functions? Destroy a ship...

Well, TexasJohn, the question could be asked as to why the United States likes to maintain an ICBM arsenal, why Russia just tested an ICBM recently, by China has 2 different types of operational ICBMs with another already in development and why India has an ICBM program by the name of Surya. But...

Well deserved win for Australia, and a much deserved loss for Pakistan. The batting collapses are no longer spectacular, they've become routine, which is a shame. The bowlers did all they could, especially in the second Aussie inning, but with little help from fielders and no help from the...
