Doubt. He clearly said in his address to the US on radio that Pakistan will follow Islamic guidance, but it will never be a theocratic state. A Khilafat is a theocracy.

They have nukes. Until the Arab states develop their nukes, no one can stop Israel. Hezbullah is not a lethal force compared to what Israel and US have. They engaged multiple Arab states in '67 and won. There's essentially nothing stopping them from moving into the West Bank. But they do have a...

A matter of fact is that nothing is stopping Israel from annexing large parts of the western bank, especially when it has the US backing. What is stopping the Israeli Army to move into those parts right now? Their biggest concern is their survival in the Middle East which won't be possible as...

Pre-67 borders would be the best deal to get. It's not like Palestinian militant groups can resist an Israeli invasion anyways, those groups are right now meaningless. If the Arabs were united since the start and listened to what Iraq had to say in the 50s or 60s, there will be no Israel right now.

Identities are important. If you want to govern a single state, it will have to have both names and flags, and it should be jointly governed with half-half representation in parliaments. But people of both countries would never accept that.

It is important to conduct relations with Israel. What people don't realize that by having trade and relations with Israel, if you play it right, you will hold a degree of leverage over them. Secondly, it will be beneficial to yourself as well. But it should be done by not compromising on the...

"shifty fences" and rejecting joint topographic surveys... what excuse do they have?

So she seems more Christian, and judging from this article, she seems very nondecisive as well. Either way, I don't think it doesn't make a difference who comes to the presidency. In the end, the foreign policy is made by the collective sum of the Government and its institutions, not just the...

If she believes in what her grandfather told her, that it is a land of equality, regardless of their circumstances at birth, and she is proud of that heritage; then she will be the perfect candidate. Such a candidate isn't a nationalist, but a humanist. What BJP is doing in India is opposite to...

Coward, not a Ghazi.

From what I can see, I wouldn't say its booming. The economy came a long way from where it was in the 2000s, and has boomed. But right now it's okay or slow to say.

Other nations' Ghazi's conquer lands and bring Islam to wide corners of the world. Our Ghazi's stab a person from the behind.

It's plausible, like what other members mentioned here. But I think it's best that we wait a few months before making a conclusion so that whole scenario becomes clearer.

Americans have given them a guarantee. They provide Saudia Arabia with jets, with training, and equipment. Also, Nuclear deterrence isn't nuclear deterrence if you're not ready to use nukes.

1. In all fairness, no country, save Nordic nations, are truly and purely secular. Even USA isn't purely a secular nation. 2. Turkish Blasphemy laws actually extend to all religions. There is no special treatment for Islam anywhere in the Turkish Constitution at all. Turkey is one of the most...

You're suggesting that Saudi Arabia desperately wants the Nuclear Umbrella because they're a paranoid bunch? And that our Nuclear Umbrella is a better defense than the entire arsenal the USA offers inside Saudi Arabia?

UAE is in a completely different ballgame. I have no excuses for them. All countries have an investment fund and look to use it for investments which will pay off for them of course. Jio is one of those smart investments in which Google, Facebook among other giants invested. Obviously, long...

That would be the best. Mistrust between two important allies who have supported each other through history is a big, big loss. There needs to be a meeting, and misunderstandings need to be sorted out, while things blurry should become clear.

Erdogan never rejected secularism. And Turkish politics is something I am not interested in. It's way too complicated.

Firstly, that deal was set in motion last year. Before this whole debacle. This is the latest news, and the article provides excellent hints as to why this is in Saudi interest. https://www.businesstimes.com.sg/energy-commodities/aramco-still-aims-for-us15b-investment-in-india’s-reliance "The...
