America needs to STOP international military operations. Rationalize the defence budget, reduce expenses and direct every available penny to education and research. Take the money being spent on bullets and put it in startups. America, please be what you used to be in the '50s. A country...
At the time, many people agreed with Carter's characterization, which is why he was able to deliver it with a straight face. Iran was a huge buyer of US weapons, goods and services. And Iran had achieved far more at that time, for its people, than India has. You may not be familiar with Iran's...
We are friendly to America, but we do not see the US-Pakistan relationship shaping our future as we did in the '50s or '60s. And by the way, our public says India is enemy #1, not America, as evidenced by numerous polls. But that's another subject altogether.
The most important relationships...
You claim there is infiltration in Kashmir. You claim that your soldiers spot people crossing the border with naked eyes. Have you stopped all of them?
I am confused. Are you mentioning these as the good or the bad things? Both the Pakistan Gov and the US Gov say Blackwater doesn't exist in Pakistan, so that's not even disputed. Yes, there are the Zaid Hamid types, but I didn't think you were a Zaid Hamid admirer... I guess one is surprised...
I see you can't resist a jab at Pakistan even when it is entirely unnecessary and the discussion is civil and reasonable. Good for you. You nurture that hatred and keep it going. I am sure carrying it around will do wonders for you.
I just want to remind you to please analyze the situation for yourself and come to your own conclusions. Relying on the words of a US President re how your country is doing - and that too while he is on a sales tour - can be very dangerous and misleading. They will say things out of their own...
If anyone here thinks that he was abusing the Bangladeshis, they are mistaken. He was asking the crowd a question and making the case for why Pakistan should recognise and have good relations with Bangladesh. The crowd reacted negatively and he said he was no one to make decisions for the...
^^ We've debated this extensively. Don't derail this thread. The net-net is that we would worry about giving you proof if we thought you didn't already know what you're doing. The people on your side who need to know, know darn well. No proof will cause them to change their behaviour because the...
Let's not go off on that tangent now. India does support terrorism within Pakistan, plain and simple. We've discussed this issue ad nauseum, the Brahamdagh Bugti connection, consulates, arrests of RAW agents this and that. You have your position, we have our position. Let's not make this into a...
We know from Mr. Jaswant Singh and President Musharraf that a solution that is mutually agreeable does indeed exist. I wish it had been acted upon at that golden moment... but for reasons now well known, it didn't.
I think we can make the issue of India and Pakistan's control over Kashmir...
I think you're off the mark.
Pakistan doesn't need the UN to enforce action against India in Kashmir. As you will see from UN history, getting a resolution is one thing - and yes, certainly a diplomatic victory - but transforming that resolution into sanctions or war is a rarity and it...
It isn't. I suppose here's another thing you are clueless on.
Mind your bloody language.
Now that we have that over and done with, wear a #$#ing pair of glasses, stop trolling and go read my post again. I answered your question.
What does the US do with T-bills? What are they? They are debt taken on by the US Government? To do what? To fund US government spending. So buying T-bills is like handing the US Government money to go spend. It is a direct infusion in the world economy.
You talked about Japan, but perhaps...
Janay do yaar. You're now off in la la land. Go back and read that article I posted which has your Foreign Sec waxing eloquent about how critical Iran is to India.
What percentage of your oil do you get from OIC countries, by the way?
:-)
57 countries getting together on any issue are indeed credible. And by the way, India tried to enter the OIC... it has been trying since the Rabat conference. Each and every attempt has been frustrated. At Rabat the Jordanians, Moroccans, Saudis and others prevented the Indian envoy from even...

By "tangential" if you mean solid logic with facts that tears the original claim apart, then yes, I wholeheartedly agree.
As for when Kashmir came up last at the UN, here's a link from the Times of India:
Pakistan raises Kashmir issue at UN committee, India reacts strongly - The...
No he didn't say this only. I think you need to read his post again only. Keep a dictionary handy only.
Other source refereeing to OIC .....:lol:
IOC :woot:... what is this ????? any on know that ?? I this matter to India what they saying or not ?????
OIC represents 57 countries of the...
World GDP represents what the world produces. What is produced is ultimately consumed. If you are a huge consumer, you then drive the world economy and are a "growth engine", because as you increase your consumption, you increase the ability for the world to produce more... thus increasing GDP...
