Have they ever murdered kids in a school? No. Believe whatever you want about PTI, but saying that 'Twitter Activists' are ''worse than TTP'' is a really stupid thing to say.

These kinds of videos should not be posted with the purpose of defaming people, regardless of what you think of them. Even if they're involved in wrongdoing or hypocrisy, It's a shameful thing to malign peoples' daughters and wives.

These kinds of videos should not be posted with the purpose of defaming people, regardless of what you think of them. The second one is from Turkey, not Reham's daughter. Even if it was her, it's a shameful thing to malign peoples' daughters and wives.

It was pretty obvious that all she wanted was to use Imran Khan as a springboard to enter politics. What a waste. At least IK saw it now, and ended it before things got worse. I won't be surprised though, if Reham came out in a couple of days with some 'revelations' to defame IK as revenge for...

The Soviet Invasion of Afghanistan

The "World" needs to first declare the US a terrorist nation, since they themselves accepted that they armed and funded Afghan Mujahideen with help from Pakistan, along with Syrian 'moderate rebels' (now called ISIS). This is what ''the World'' thought of Bin Laden: The article is from 1993...

Yeah, the Goliath - one of the first 'drones' ever.

Yes, electoral reforms are an essential component of this. Even if there was no dhandli, the other political parties have no reason at all to oppose electronic voting systems - unless, of course, they are the ones involved in dhandli. Which is pretty obvious.

And here come the Indians who need to keep re-assuring themselves of ''institutional failures'' in Pakistan to be able to sleep at night. It shows that the government is relatively incompetent, but it also shows that the Army has no interest in coups and is actively working to strengthen civil...

This Haqqani Network is a drama. They don't even exist as a proper force anymore. I am starting to doubt they ever did exist as a major player - it's starting to seem more and more like a boogeyman constructed to be held against Pakistan.

The Government didn't have the decency to appoint a proper foreign minister, I wouldn't be surprised if the Army did tell them to sort that out - and the Army does most probably give input as to how foreign and defence matters should be handled. But other than that, there's a balance. Even...

I understand your points - I'm not Shia myself and do not agree with some of their practices either, as I've explained in post #82

Religious discussion is against the forum rules, but now that you have brought up this garbage propaganda that has been refuted fifty dozen times, The age of marriage and consummation are not mentioned in any infallible book. It is not mentioned in the Quran. The numbers are based on Hadith...

Yes, it unfortunately is a fragile situation. It would be dangerous to attempt to restrict or ban it because it would offend the Shias. On the other hand, if the governments were to attempt to regulate it by providing facilities and for example, giving them clean blades and healthcare, it would...

Funny little piece of feel-good satire for an Indian audience. Too obvious, too silly. No intelligent humour here, unfortunately. No, no, no, the 5th province will be Planet Earth. We all know USA is closer to Jupiter, so that will have to be the 6th province :D

My apologies if I misunderstood you, but your choice of words was: "Well if that is condemned another thing to condemn is the bakra eid" You said "condemn bakra eid", not 'condemn childrens' exposure to it'. Your point is valid, nobody should be forced to watch it, but it already is that way...

No. Firstly, none of it is "Islamic". Most of its victims have been Muslims. It's political. Secondly, arming the Afghan Mujahideen in the 80s might have been myopic, but was the only option available. Get off your moral high-horse and stop pretending India never did the same. LTTE and BLA are...

I agree with this - we should have a separate section for philosophical or religious discussion, one that preferably has some restrictions on it, similar to the seniors' cafe so that it is less susceptible to trolls. The religious discussion rule needs to be revised too, it's rarely enforced...

Some Shia Muslims believe in 're-enacting' the pain felt by Imam Hussein at the battle of Karbala and this is basically a way of mourning. This practice doesn't exist in Sunni Islam because self-harm is forbidden in the Quran and there is no Hadith or command from the Prophet (s.a.w) that says...

Not helping the GCC in Yemen was not a blunder. It was a very good decision. We can not let ourselves become tools for the Arabs, especially not when we risk enmity with Iran and a sectarian conflict. Turkey, on the other hand, is a different situation: there is no risk of a sectarian conflict...
