Re: Terrorist Islamic Republic of Pakistan (TSP): July 07, 2
This is truly called groping in the dark. Does anybody believe that Quereshi or Gilani have a mind of their own, or after the recent talks, Kiyani or Paasha would have said anything different? So what if India "talks" to TSPA and ISI? They are going to say Kashmir. And how is this different from what Qureshi demanded? The only script that will make a difference instead of the usual cycle of repitition will be if India draws some red lines and says this is our bottom line, take it or leave it. This can be conveyed to Kiyani or Paasha or their mouthpieces Gilani or Qureshi or Gilani or Zardari; won't make a difference.pgbhat wrote:fixed.naren wrote:No problemo.

Why is Kayani more powerful if Tariq Majid is higher ranked as an officer? Are PAF and PN officers also powerful in the national level as PA?

In other words, make sure no hanky panky by Haqqni and LET against US and its western lackeys, but do whatever you want against SDREs with the military aid we are doling out to you. Thats the concession TSP can live with.
While defence analysts saw in the statement a disquiet in the American camp about some of Pakistan’s tactical moves for Afghan reconciliation, they also noted concessions in it for Islamabad.
The admiral, in their opinion, offered Pakistan the freedom to make choices about its defence, particularly those pertaining to the use of military aid being given by Washington and the manner in which Pakistan troops are deployed.
SS, just wondering if you have read the latest version of the KL bill? Any reference to LET. Could the above concession by Mullen to TSP mean that the reference to LET is taken out of KL?

The assumption here is wrong. The propaganda war is not a zero-sum game between India and the Pakis. It's a propaganda war in front of the whole world. Third parties like the goris featured in one of the pictures are the ones who see and record (in their digital cameras) that petite Indian ladies do the job which a Pakbarin mard does. That enhances our soft power.Carl_T wrote:Yeah I think Pranav is right, it will be taken as "Indian women dancing to martial pakis" just like in Hindi films.Yes...thats all abt the propaganda war...if they convert a defeat as victory..surely they can say whatever they want. But this about the point we are trying to make of what we think Pakistanis are. But the subtle taunting of you parading before our wimmen goes a long way.
Regarding the Pakis, they will always convince themselves that they've won. No need to suffer from a version of the Stockholm syndrome and unconsciously agree with them.
Even better would have been a bunch of hijras doing the needful or BRF's favourite paan chewing chowkidar.

Re: Terrorist Islamic Republic of Pakistan (TSP): July 07, 2
Exactly. And God forbid, if one of them turns out to be like Sania Mirza, TSP will be delirious. I don't consider this as any significant development. The whole tamasha ought to be scrapped. Its insulting to India and perpetuates the equal equal, and other western cliches that "people on both sides love each other but for extremists".Carl_T wrote: Yeah I think Pranav is right, it will be taken as "Indian women dancing to martial pakis" just like in Hindi films.

Have you considered that if India puts a stop to this then the Pakistanis and some perpetually pessimistic Indians, who in their minds have concluded just how SDRE we are in everything, [ ] will then conclude that India "ran away" from this ceremony because they couldn't keep up with the TFTA mards from Pakistan?

I think this whole spectacle is really for the Indian (and tourist) audience like the "changing of the guard" they do in UK so it would be a good opportunity to develop soft power as you say.
Re: Terrorist Islamic Republic of Pakistan (TSP): July 07, 2
What is the victory here boss? This is bean counting at best. I cannot think of any blow India has delivered to TSP in the past decade or so except for the shooting down of their Atlantique. And a real blow to TSP is the need of the hour to avoid that sick piling on of insults from TSP that we saw from Quereshi. Not to mention 26/11 and umpteen crimes like that. As I said, its not wrth talking about. If we scrap the whole circus, that would be note worthy IMO.pgbhat wrote: It is typical of SDREs to search for defeat even if victory is staring at them.

I don't think you understand. If you use the same (specious) logic that sending lady BSF jawans to face up to Pakbarin Mards is equal to having SDRE women dancing to please the TFTAs then closing down the whole show would mean only one thing. Pakistan>India. The SDRE's ran away because they couldn't stand up to the cocka doodle doo of the TFTA mards.
You see with practice almost everyone can follow the chain of pessimistic reasoning which turns everything into one point. SDRE's are good for nothing and everyone is better, whether it is the Amir Khan or the unwashed Pakbarin Mards.
For record, I think this is a great move by the BSF to show how different India is from Pakistan. And yes it would be an icing on the cake, if like Sania Mirza, one of the lady BSF jawans is from a particular religion. (Though that should not be a criteria).
Anything which disabuses the == is welcome, even though it would result in withdrawal symptons for both the Pacquis and many SDRE Internet warriors.

Actually if the BSF/Home Ministry was really media savvy, then the next step should be to invite some Delhi based gora/gori correspondents of TFTA media outlets of the West to the place to witness the event and write about it.Multatuli wrote:I fully agree, the goris particularly will love it, (womens emancipation and all that).

Imagine, Pak Mards do their cocka doodle do strutting and then the BSF ladies smartly march over and do the needful. I would love to see that and read the copy that would come out of that!
Re: Terrorist Islamic Republic of Pakistan (TSP): July 07, 2
You really believe the nonsense in bold? I can bet you, take a poll on BR, and overwhelmingly BRites will vote to stop that crap; perhaps most Indians. And assuming MMS & co were to make such a bold move (I know I am dreaming) and even if TSP crows that SDREs ran away from that tamasha, I can bet you, nobody in India would care two hoots.amit wrote: CRS,

http://www.hindustantimes.com/Failure-f ... 77264.aspxI want to ask a controversial question this Sunday morning: how much of the blame for last week’s Indo-Pakistan denouement lies with India?
After all, just as terror is important to India, Kashmir, Siachen and peace and security are of equal significance to Pakistan. By prioritising the first over the other three India was placing issues that are of prime concern to Delhi ahead of those that are of prime concern to Islamabad.
The question I want to raise is this: did India mishandle the approach to the talks and, consequently, mislead the Pakistanis? At the very least Krishna’s statement suggests we were not upfront and transparent.

Re: Terrorist Islamic Republic of Pakistan (TSP): July 07, 2
CRS you're changing the goal posts. You follow a certain line of reasoning which says women jawans equal to SDRE women dancing for TFTA mards and then say we should stop the exercise. I show you that the same stupid line of argument would lead to what.
Now you are bringing up the issue of stopping the exercise as an independent option. Many folks on BRF including myself want a chowkidar to do the needful which amounts to stopping the ceremony.
But I notice you have managed to bring in your pal MMS into the argument which started as a light hearted banter.

You can't have FTA with India without talking to us!
Folks, may I add a few lines here on Pakistan's economy?
There is a report in the Pakistani daily Business Recorder stating that the current trade volume between India and EU is U.S $80 billion and with the FTA being negotiated, EU and India are planning to reach a trade volume of U.S $200 billion in four years time.
EU India FTA.
But something else caught my eye. Immediately above the report there was another (quoted below) stating how Pakistan would be screwed should the FTA go ahead!

linkPakistan voices concern over India-EU FTA
Pakistan has expressed serious concern over the proposed Free Trade Agreement (FTA) between India and the European Union (EU), which what it said, may affect 78.7 percent of Pak exports to the EU. According to the documents available with Business Recorder, the government has shown serious concern over the EU's on-going FTA negotiations particularly with India, which would affect Pakistan's market access to the EU.
...
Now, Pakistan is willing to consider undertaking deeper integration in FTA with the EU, which includes liberalisation in goods, services, investment, government procurement and intellectual property rights as per the EU's standards and requirements. However, the EU, in principal {in principle ?}, needs to agree to enter FTA dialogue with Pakistan.

Pakistan has said it will be impossible for it to continue the dialogue with India if New Delhi does not pay importance to the Kashmir issue.
India must include the Kashmir issue in talks with Pakistan in order to take forward parleys between the two countries, Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi said.
"It will be impossible for Pakistan to continue the dialogue if India does not pay importance to the Kashmir issue," Qureshi told reporters at the airport here yesterday after returning from a trip abroad.
......
On the proposed Pakistan-Afghanistan transit trade agreement, he described it as a significant achievement, but ruled out any provision in the pact to allow India to send its goods to Afghanistan via Pakistan.
The Foreign Minister also dismissed assertions by US leaders and officials that the top al-Qaeda and Afghan Taliban leadership, including Osama bin Laden and Mullah Omar, are present in Pakistan.
Describing such reports as rubbish, he said: "Pakistan wants concrete evidence proving the whereabouts of either Osama or Mullah Omar".
He said that if anyone claims bin Laden or Mullah Omar are hiding in Pakistan, they must provide evidence to the government of Pakistan to back up their contention.

In the past (some would say even in the present), India has given so much to Pakistan as a matter of H&D. The Pakistani State never built up a 'domestic opinion'. The only 'domestic opinion' they built up was more hatred for infidel Hindu India, more propaganda on how India was an unremitting enemy, more lying on how India was stealing their water etc.shiv wrote:jrjrao wrote: http://www.hindustantimes.com/Failure-f ... 77264.aspxThapar, like "Moderate liberal Pakis" is asking that India should give Pakistan an honor saving option and argues that it would be harmless to India...agreeing to discuss them would have given the Pakistanis something to show to their domestic opinion.

What people miss is the central theme that one can plainly see: Pakistan does not want to live in peace with India. Not now, not in the future. It is only complicating issues and making them more intractable.

Any way the good news is that SMQ made an ass out himself in the press conference. Resulting in a hardening of Indian (mango Indian at least) opinion towards TSP. Weakning the Aman ki Asha tripe

Demilitarization of Siachen
The president said, “Even though Indian expenditures in Siachen are far more than Pakistan’s, we propose that the matter should be resolved amicably through talks, so that the resources of the two countries can be spent on the welfare of their people.” As per his remarks, India spends $ 50 per day on one soldier in Siachen while Pakistan spends Rs 50.
Pakistan has a low logistical cost compared to India, since the latter has to ferry a lot of supplies by air while we are able to transport the bulk of our supplies by road {Of course, at altitudes of a few thousand feet, mules can be used over katcha roads}

Why should he be bothered about that? India is spending its own hard earned money and it is upto Indians to decide whether we can afford it or not. If TSP has takleef over spending its alms from GUBO in Siachen :"Pliss to withdraw unilaterally".

It has, at least in my social circle. As some were advocating a normalisation of relations and the whole 9 yards with TSP with me being the holdout. But the drama of the talks and the boorish behavior of the Pakistanies has brought them around to my view point. So it was a good thing that the talks ended the way they did.
