That is really nice to know, but your comments suggest the opposite. Can you point to any part of their holy book that suggests that Prithviraj Chauhan's military defeat was in any way comparable to today's intimidation and harassment of Muslims? The Kashmiri Pandits were expelled for...

Not whataboutery? I agree, there was serious intimidation and harassment, and murders, anywhere between 600 and 1,200 of them, out of a total population of 150,000 KPs. That is a horrifying 4 to 8%. What lesson do you draw from this? That all Muslims are culpable? Every time, everywhere? What...

Sure. Your defence seems to be 'whataboutery'. If that is all you can summon as a response to the specific failure to observe his duty on the part of one individual, so be it, so long as you recognise that your position is compromised. If we go by your argument, no homicide can be prosecuted...

What anger? I merely posted some awkward questions, that people tend to sidestep - as, indeed, you have sidestepped in your response. How do I display lack of emotion, of violent emotion, or of anything beyond a desire to take the argument to the ultimate logical conclusion? Emojis? I will...

CMV-22B Osprey onboard Nimitz-class aircraft carrier USS Carl Vinson (CVN 70) @U.S. Navy The U.S. Navy announced initial operational capability (IOC) for the CMV-22B Osprey long-range tiltrotor aircraft, confirming the platform’s operational readiness following the successful completion of its...

Were you all right with the format, or should you like to see the entire thin printed?

I was wondering that myself. However, the European tank-making industry being intensely competitive as it is, I suppose customers play them off, one against the other, to try and get the 'best' deal. In these procurements, nobody cares a hoot about maintenance, or parts, or inventory, unless...

Unmanned Influence Sweep System (UISS) @U.S. Navy The Pentagon today awarded Textron Systems nearly $42 million to support the Unmanned Influence Sweep System (UISS) Unmanned Surface Vehicle (USV) project. The contract covers provision of engineering and technical support, incidental materials...

Abrams M1A2 SEPv3 Battle Tanks The United States has approved a possible Foreign Military Sale to Poland of Abrams M1A2 SEPv3 Main Battle Tanks and related equipment for an estimated cost of $6 billion. The approval came hours after U.S. Secretary of Defense Lloyd J. Austin III held a News...

Hmmmph. That'd be more serious work than he has done in twenty years.

? Let me ask you - do you support an elected leader breaking the oath he swears to uphold the constitution, to connive at the murder of over 700 of his citizens, whom he was supposed to defend with the power of the state administration? Do you agree with his support for the Bajrang Dal and the...

I think this whole thread is a waste of time.

That is my point. Im the Dim may be making a fool of himself, but if he has the illusion that he can aspire to be the biggest fool in the room, he has another think coming. We have the answer to their fool-proof solutions - a bigger fool.

And which of them do you think is a serious politician?

Why is that picture there? Will he be driving one of the lorries?

This is good to read. We also need to send a team to ask the Afghan leadership bluntly if they wish us to continue and finish up the infrastructure building that we started building in that country, or if they want us to quietly vanish. If they want us to continue, at no cost to them, will...

These public challenges are simply immaturity. We should focus on the tangible, on the real, and not get side-tracked.

Precisely. There is NO reason why we cannot build better relations with Turkey, except for a bankrupted diplomacy that is run by a Sanghi ex-diplomat.

If your point is that he is not a serious politician, my question is, how does it matter to me? Or to you? That is for Pakistanis to worry about.
