They mutinied because after defeating Porus Alexander wanted to venture deeper into India, his armies did not. The weather did not suit the Greeks. They had had enough. Porus's resistance may have been the last straw that over fatigued Alexander's armies.
Zartaj Gul is arguably the most incompetent office holder in a government that is marred by incompetence. Telling about how incompetent she might be. To top incompetence, now there are talks of financial irregularity and squandering of public money after she was said to have been involved in...
Pakistan will become an Egypt where Military Inc. has stunted the growth of private enterprises and its commercial interests have pervaded every facet of Egyptian commerce. The irony is that the tycoons of Military Inc. could establish commercial mammoths in civilian spheres but cannot do so in...
I reckon that was in relation to Pakistan bombing territory that Ind claims as its own. However, it makes little sense for them to protest in this manner when they themselves bombed sovereign Pakistani territory just a day earlier. Maybe you are right in this context, and taking shot/s at acs...
It is said that our AD assets were not activated in AJK. We were expecting something in Punjab proper. It was an intelligence failure, if true. The more troubling prospect is the assets being active in AJK, but as the Indians claim, were jammed. A lot of ink has been spilt on the events of 27th...
FATF made us fix the financial governance and surveillance bottlenecks (at a great economic cost, though), maybe the threat of GSP plus being taken away would create the will in the state to put its own house in order. We are a strange nation that wakes from slumber only when the outsiders put...
Erdogan's descent into fascism has spelled doom for the Turkish state and economy. There is news that now his regime is considering the criminalization of criticism of his economic policies. Even criticism of his absurd economic policies would be called a national security threat. Impoverishing...
The cost of this commercialization and increasing commercial interests of Military Inc. is the professionalism of the armed forces and blunting of their fighting prowess. Recently a thread was done on an interview with Gen. Tariq Khan where he mentioned that lessons (vis-a-vis COIN operations)...
This pragmatism and ground realities are lost on the ones hooked up on religious utopias that did not even survive the Prophet (PBUH)'s demise. Muslims have been slitting each others throats for "true Islam" ever since and these folks want Pakistan to continue being a laboratory for the same...
TTP is willing to die for religion while the ertughrul watching hypocrites who also spend their night watching pornhub videos would only pay lip service to shariat (or make such threads). The solution is not more "Islamic" content but sensitization of youth. Giving them healthy activities to...
I too believe that Asif Ghafoor singlehandedly nearly converted a whitewash handed over by PAF to the IAF into a very questionable affair.
I asked the question to analyze the possibility of the mki being shot around the Pir Bhawani area. If the Hassan Siddiqui F-16 was deep enough, it might be...
I see your point but it makes little sense to make a claim about an extreme situation without evidence. Either we should bust the myth of him (Asif Ghafoor) being some information wf wizard, or buy what he said hook, line, and sinker. BTW, where was Hassan Siddiqui's F-16 when he fired that AMRAAM?
Negotiate surrender. That happens when their cause is made hopeless. Let this hujjat be tamaam as well, but let it be the last one. We thought it was the last one when they butchered innocent children in APS Peshawar, but in Pakistan, nothing shocks us anymore.
Considering the gas/energy-starved state of our economy, this could lend a lease of life to our struggling manufacturing industry. I do not understand why construction is not proceeding at breakneck speed on this project now after there is relative stability in Afghanistan.
