Four MMRCA contenders fail Leh trials This should narrow the field down. My guesses. Since the Mig-35 is basically a Mig-29 with a new name and I'm sure IAF's Mig-29s have been tested at Leh, the Mig-35 cannot have failed. Secondly, the LCA did pretty well when they tested it at Leh...

Israel reopening of historic synagogue angers Palestinians JERUSALEM: Israel on Monday reopened a landmark synagogue in Jerusalem's walled Old City, saying it should symbolise religious tolerance, 62 years after the building was destroyed in fighting with Jordan. But the rededication came...

According to Wikipedia, Sikhs make up 10–15% of all ranks in the Indian Army and 20% of its officers, whilst Sikhs only forming 1.87% of the Indian population, which makes them over 10 times more likely to be a soldier and officer in the Indian Army than the average Indian. Now close the...

Ex-generals, politicians confirm Sheikh Rashid ran militant camp Article is from Daily Times

How have past Indo-Pak talks prevented terror attacks in India? In fact most terror attacks have happened when relations between the two countries were improving and talks were set for expansion. Peace talks could not even prevent the Kargil war. Curiously our present government seems to...

Regarding bolded part. If that is the case then how come women in the west don't like to cover their bodies from head to toe while women in Muslim countries (supposedly) like to? :what:

Not exactly. The Mig-29 can perform it as well AFAIK. Now ofcourse so can the F-22. Anyways a couple of IAF flankers armed to the teeth in two very different loadouts. Strike: Air-to-Air:

I may be criticized for meddling my Indian nose in what is not my business but here goes... Why does it have to be either /or when you can have both? Start a political party with the officially declared policy that you will implement Sharia law in the country if elected to power. If you do get...

I see a lot of people blaming the current government for the problem, but whose brilliant idea was it to use oil for power generation when there are huge reserves of coal lying around? Those power plants must be quite old and obviously not started by the "current democratic government" which...

I'm sorry but "act of goodwill" is just a fancy phrase to me. What exactly do those peaceniks at TOI want us to do? I'm guessing that they pulled this front page stunt in order to get a message across. So what is the message? What is it exactly that India must do that it is not doing already...

Just look at the Readers response section LINK Seems TOI is wayy off the mark in gauging the people's state of mind. They must be out of their minds trying to pull off this stunt barely a month after the 1st anniversary of 26/11. That article and the newspaper has been completely slaughtered...

Haven't the block-52 deliveries already started? In any case the deal is already finalized isn't it atleast for the first 18 F-16s?

I visited the wiki page on the F-22P. It looks like a very capable warship atleast on paper. But I have a question regarding the specs given on wiki F-22P Displacement: 2500 tons Length: 111.7 m Beam: 12.4m The F-22p is classfied as a 'Frigate' by the PN Now look at the specs of the...

You (the americans) did not think twice about attacking Iraq because they purportedly had WMDs (which you never could find). Even if they did they were no threat to the US anyways. But you attacked them nonetheless. So why the animosity towards Israel? Iran is a lot closer to having nukes than...

Nobody is blaming the college authorities. But instead of speaking out against the Taliban terrorizing people you are trying to justify the ban because you think its part of your culture. Well if it is, the government or the college authorities will order it at their own discretion. Here they...

Well I have seen numerous posts by pakistani members saying that 1. islam tells both men and women to dress modestly and 2. There is no coersion or compulsion in islam. how is your culture different from islam? :what:

Yes, shalwars may be comfortable. There is nothing wrong with your national dress. And those women who find it comfortable will continue wearing it. but how can you justify forcing someone to wear/not wear a particular kind of clothing unless its so revealing that it violates some law of...

Ref: Bold part ...and jeans for men is?? Why not ban jeans for everybody? Come to think of it why not ban shirts and trousers too?? Why the special treatment to women? You were born in the 80s you say. Don't tell me that u have been wearing shalwar khameez every single day of your life. I'm...

The question isn't about jeans here. The question is why the college decided to impose the dress code right now. Did they do it because they wanted to or did they do it because the taliban told them to? the discussion about jeans being islamic or unislamic, would lead us away from the main...
