It started in 1948 with the kabailis and then 1965 with the infiltrators.
You are right that you were pain back in the same coin in 1971 and you shouldn't blame others if they got better results because they were better and more competent.
Pakistan should realize that the response from India...
Christopher Hitchens identified three characteristics:
Self righteousness
Self pity
Self loathing
For Pakistanis, some more get added because of their "unique circumstances". ;)
Its not for the converts and apostates to decide what is our religious book.
As I said, you may continue believing that angels curse a woman all night if she doesn't satisfy the husband at night. Or the horse flew that night.
That is your faith.
Leave ours to us.
Yes, it is pitiful.
So you see the plethora of "history" threads here and elsewhere.
Inhone history ko mashq kiya hai, history inhe mashq kar rahi hai.
By the way, one (probably unintended) side effect of the identity crisis and the funny history taught to them is the hilarious gems that you...
Indirect taxes are not progressive. They have the same burden for everyone, poor or rich.
Governments want to show they are milking the rich to help the poor. So outside of the oil rich ME countries that earn unearned billions from oil exports, almost every other country has direct taxes and...
Now of course, we would like Pakistan to overcome it's problems and we hope to overcome ours.
Interesting thing is their obsession with us when we have nothing to do with Pakistan.
While they don't worry about their own country or the 138 million hungry people in their master China! After all...
Watch this youtube video (Can't add links). Imran claims the following:
11 Crore Pakistanis go hungry
4 lac children die every year due to lack of access to clean water
A mother dies every 40 minutes during delivery
2.5 crore children out of school (maximum in the world)
Minimum money spent on...
Yes, it does have nuisance value. Which is what we need to manage till things can get better. It has been well realized in India now.
Anyway, Pakistan is a small part of the Indian foreign policy now and that is how it should be. We should engage more aggressively with the countries to our East...
Yes, they are not important as of now because the trade relations are insignificantly small as of now.
It may change in the future but the change has to come from within. I don't think people expect that to happen in the short term so while there is potential, it will remain untapped for some time.
Pakistan is not a priority and you would see that Modi has hardly spent any time on the issue.
We don't think of Pakistan as an enemy. At least not an "eternal enemy". We just need no terrorists coming from there and blowing up in our cities. Rest they matter less than Somalia or Libya as far...
I have another friend who is a Jamwal from Himachal.
Seems some Pakistanis while having a lot of interest in the topic of ethnicity, have very less real knowledge of the same, especially for Indian population.
I think it is a fair point to invest the limited time and energy where you get the return on investment.
USA/Japan/Australia/major European countries/East Asia for investment and markets and strategic relations.
China for mutual benefits to maximize convergence while managing the real issues...
Let me repeat a quote from elsewhere.
I somehow see the current thread as stage two in a three stage evolution of Pakistani thinking. This is a bit over simplified obviously.
Stage 1: Totally dissociate from the past. call it Jahiliyah. Don't even accept that you are native to the land. Call...
