Afghanistan in kay bus ki baat hi nahien hay. The sooner the withdrawal begins, the better for the US and NATO.

That is a brilliant suggestion! Yes, I agree wholeheartedly! This should be done post haste. NATO needs countries willing to commit manpower to conflicts like Afghanistan and the Indian army is large enough to allocate a couple hundred thousand troops to peacekeeping ops in Afghanistan. This...

Pakistan will recognize Israel in an instant if King Abdullah's very reasonable and sensible peace offer is accepted by Israel. Absent a solution to the Palestine issue, I just don't see anything happening other than idle talk and these "secret behind the scenes" articles from time to time.

I can ask you the same question. If, in this instance, Pravda has done nothing more than print a Pakistani's opinion, do you then admit that Javed Naqvi's article reflects the contempt that Indian citizens hold their Army in as opposed to what DAWN or the "Pakistani Establishment" think :-)...

I think the answer is embedded in the question... the Russians responded to Nixon's promised "fleet". Who was that fleet coming to assist? The Chinese prevented the eastern front from materializing in 1965. The Iranians and Jordanians gave us F-104s and Sabres for free. Our planes used Iranian...

To be fair, I think you need to ask our friends :-) Please ask the Chinese, Turks, Saudis or the Emiratis whether they trust Pakistan. In my humble opinion, they trust Pakistan absolutely. For decades, royal security in numerous Arab countries was secured by Pakistani soldiers. After the UAE...

Wah wah! I recently posted an article on this forum which was authored by an Indian citizen but appeared in Pakistan's DAWN newspaper. It took me several pages of back and forth to even get my Indian friends to *acknowledge* forthrightly that the article was written by an Indian! The argument I...

Yes we should. A couple of corrections though. No forum member wrote this article. And second, you mention "the end of the article". Actually the quote I provided is the end of the *first paragraph* of the article, i.e. right on top. I think you will understand that for the purposes of making...

The F-22 is not required by America to defend itself. The only context in which the F-22 is relevant is if America decides to wage a foreign war against another country with an advanced military. Given the foreign wars waged over the past 10 years and their ill effects on America itself, I think...

If the NYT's allegations about Pakistan modifying the Harpoon for surface strike roles are true, then the Pakistani subs do have a surface strike capability.

Foxbat, perhaps you didn't make it all the way to the end of the first paragraph. "All major political parties of Britain now have office holders with Pakistani heritage." And given your position, I take it you never refer to non-Pakistani nationals with Pakistani heritage as "Pakistanis"...

What a bitter article and how utterly non-reflective of the reality of either India, or Pakistan. As for the bitterness, I suppose I can understand. Seeing what was the British "empire" as recently as the 1940s being reduced to sh1t, with a society that is increasingly dysfunctional, a troubled...

The numbers are vastly underreported and completely nonsensical. There was no 50% drop between '06 and 2007 as is being implied here. The base numbers are also wrong. Crap report. Please see PSEB's study from '07/'08 which was published when Yusuf Hussain was MD.

Russia is grudgingly going along with the isolation policy viz Iran. They themselves have no bones to pick with Iran and would have gladly supplied the S-300 were it not for western pressure. I think what this news item really suggests is that while Russia could not transfer new S-300 systems to...

Very interesting. You have both an Iranian and a Pakistani telling you that the majority of people in both countries have no issue with each other and consider each other friends, and yet you have a hard time believing it. Perhaps it is your own misconceptions or pre-conceived ideas that are...

A1Kaid, having interacted with lots of people from Iran, I disagree. There are always people on both sides who will talk dismissively of others, but that doesn't characterize the national attitude. For one, there are no large outstanding conflicts between Pakistan and Iran (such as a disputed...

r3alist: Really? You are going to ask me what you said that might be considered "objectionable"? In the same post you have admitted to calling a religious leader and a friendly country's head of state "******" for no reason whatsoever. As per forum policy you are banned. Take some time off, come...

Hussein, neither will Iran enter a conflict just because Pakistan is asking it to, and nor will Pakistan if the opposite holds true. The issue is not whether Pakistan should fight a war against the west alongside Iran. (I don't believe Iran wants a war with the west, by the way). The issue is...

Let me get this straight. You are basing your opinion of Pakistan and Iran's relationship on this single article? And cut the crap about "bullying", because if you consider being called on your cluelessness, "bullying" then perhaps you needed more of it in your earlier years. If nothing else, it...
