Let me TANK the think-tank or the tankman himself.
First, don't use your privilege to clamp on people if you can't take their argument.
The US AID from 2001-2013 stands as USD 33 billion ( not adjusted). Don't make a fool of Pakistan by catching the Jinnah fever that asked 2 billion back in...
They need to coexist not compete. That's the same obsession Chinese have with us or Pakistanis with Indians.
Hambantota is very close to Columbo port so it's only use will be to compensate the work load of that. Unless the trade increases significantly that is bound to fail.
It is all because of the government not owning up to the LTTE atrocities and the human crimes committed. They had no choice but to take loan from Chinese but they forget the problems that come with it. Africa has witnessed the same. Now the debt servicing is one third of GDP. IMF help is a one...
There should don't be one since there is just one China (and lesser the evil there is the better it is).
Coming to your question about India. They have to find their own way. It cannot and should not be reproduced like in the case of China. The numbers that come from the Chinese communist...
I don't agree that selling arms to India will affect the us-Pakistan relations. The f16 for Pakistan are still on the table. Even the support package can be offered. But if they refused then don't blame USA.
Even US uses 87 octane :woot:. The 92 octane is for premium cars. Either it's going to be too costly or they will add methanol or ethanol just to increase the octane but will reduce mpg.
Since you can't stick to USA-Pakistan relations, I give up. I kinda correlate with Indians now more than ever. This emoji should sum it all :hitwall:
My obsession with your title was to find a sane person on a forum where it is hard to find with dogfighting between India Pakistan, Europe-turkey...
Unexpected answer since you are a researcher. Why on earth Pakistanis loose the topic and go some where else. Don't become philosophical ; this is the last place I will come for that and that too from from Pakistan.
Your so called "civilized conversation" that you dearly pointed is like banging...
Let me cut the crap and go straight into it. Since you are up to the usual victim cry baby narrative, I need not be diplomatic anymore.
You clearly don't understand the difference between a prostitution and marriage. Prostitution is basically a task based relationship once done either doesn't...
The best advice I have ever given:
Stop looking for MASTER rather work on the issues that Pakistan faces. I know you will have every answer to pakistans problems as China but will result in the same way as it did with USA. if you don't work in your countries interest why on earth will anyone...
Thanks for confirming the survival of Pakistan on the aid. As for the leaving you forced our hand by going nuclear. Hence the sanctions.
Let's be civil but clear that we didn't own Pakistan a damn thing we used the service and once done left. It was for its own foolishness that the state...
The bold part is missing a word "appreciate". Start with "I don't appreciate". It hard to copy on this iPhone.
Also I think you are totally wrong about the compensation. Pakistan stated raising money to do the operations in northern Pakistan to support Afganistan. They asked for 8 billion in...
