I am no scholar on the wisdom behind religious provisos in scriptures but this one is very obvious. It is more about identification of parentage which would not have been easy if a single woman were to marry multiple men (unless subjected to DNA testing and so on) as opposed to a single man...

but are they not already inside Pakistan? If yes, what implications would that have? And if they are abroad, one implication could be they not being able to fly back home, but then where would they stay? New thing for me.

I understand where are you coming from, but its not even the same as what is used for Pakistanis in Britain. That might be a short form but that might have an undertone of an insult owing to racist attribution. However, the one we are referring to about Indians/India here is a 'proper' respect...

Oh come on! You are seriously bothered by this word? That is what is the street name for India in Pakistan in almost 99.9% of our routine communications/discussions , and I am 100% confident this is used without any derogatory or insulting touch to it. That's what we call you guys down here...

He still has his job - pre/post surgical strike farce. He does't need to go about refuting what never existed, and now upon being asked, he replied back. A common sensical thing

Why is it so easy these days to be a stakeholder in the affairs of GoP? Who are they anyway to advise, let alone dictate. And I am greatly disturbed as well by the media coverage they get. Speaks volumes about the directions this media wants our society to head to - collision course I wouldn't...

Ah! that logic again! How mature of them to think of their counterparts across LoC now and saying just airing of the footage can lead to a war now. As if it would not have lead to a war already if the Indian Army was caught in the act of so called Surgical strikes "lasting a couple of hours on a...

It's like nature is conspiring against NS if you can see behind the 30th Oct call. All his might and riches would have been done and dusted by now had RS decided to be the last push for an already falling wall during previous dharna, but he chose to neutralize the situation instead. I am not...

If that's the case, it would be too naive to believe ISI/Army doesn't know it. So, in that case 30th October might just be the beginning of end of NS regime.

There is no way the leaks could be true. These were at best an extension of media propaganda that India had on against Pakistan for a few weeks now. There moles and touts in the media orchestrated all that and the more hue and cry Army would have made, the more legitimacy the leaks would have...

That's a good spot! By merit what I meant was not the merit from online know-all journalists or forums, but the merit in terms of appropriate credentials to ensure continuity of policies.

But I think, Nawaz can't be any more happier with RS, considering the fact he didn't over turn the government despite coming under extreme pressure during dharnas. So, his confidence with Army as an institution will be high and this can lead him to not ignore merit while picking the next chief

Agreed! Every boss likes to huddle with the like minded people. That is almost universal. He might carry forward the same policies but the method to go about doing those will certainly be different. We will see a lot of changes but will surely miss RS's calm preventive approach - which was a...

Not to me directly. 'Hearing' was figurative, just like we say 'let's listen what you have to say' on a forum where we can't possibly listen. So, it was from a very close friend after a corps commander conference, where the question was put to him and he said (certainly referring to the team of...

I am happy with the direction our current COAS has put our country on. The selection must focus on this aspect to ensure continuity of good work. Pakistan has witnessed a paradigm shift under the current COAS that has resulted in people beginning to openly challenge and speak about anti...

The mention that the missiles fell in water before the ship probably point to Nulka's doing. Read the above post by C130. It wasn't about ship being out of range for these

We do not have the technology yet to pick out the potential future terrorist from millions of Afghans that we are hosting for decades now. And we are not bold enough to tell our Muslim brethren to stay inside the camps and not go out and seek education, impart education, practice your religion...

:) It meant, 2 missiles in a period of 60 minutes mate

To be honest that doesn't make sense to me. Recent hostilities had very little to no-impact on the bi-lateral trade activities thus far as per my information, nor has any mainstream media mentioned any difficulties being faced by traders on both sides . But as the news is and as the facts at...

I understand the bulges criss-cross into each others territory but still to imagine to grab the posts in such a geography would mean get butchered in a matter of hours if not minutes. So, I am not sure if that could have been the agenda Would make certain sense if there is a post on a certain...
