It is like in Afghanistan, they will open their cards after the Zarb-Shorba operation ends in Waziristan. As of now they will lie low, wait for the dust to settle down and launch their reposte in a city east of the of the Indus.

Re: Sunni Terrorist Fragments of Unstable Pakistan - 21 Apr
Definitely. The more I think about it, the more it appears that the Pakistani army has become so Islamized that no "final action" against the Taliban is possible. The Pakistani army is simply not in the business of "protection" of a Pakistani population from a Taliban whose views about the primacy of Islam are no different from the Jamaat ud dawa or Lashkar e Jhangvi - both of which have popular support in Pakistan. They are all shades of deep green and the points of contest or controversy are not great unless you hold a western liberal viewpoint.A_Gupta wrote:Points to Army-Taliban coordination, does it not? The Waziristani Taliban are meant for Afghan operations, who knows which faction did the Karachi airport attack; but by definition, they are not in Waziristan. Army needs artillery practice and can't do that in Karachi.shiv wrote:Whatever I might feel about the fakeness of the Waziristan operation "Nazb-e-zamzam" or "Zub--e-Nusbaum" whatever it looks like the Talibs have been cowed into submission apart from a minor leg-bye at Peshawar airport. If Amoebas are the most lethal things going on in shitistan, what are the martial races coming to?
Of course what that means is that Pakistan's nukes are already in the hands of Islamists. You heard it here first. It will take 5 to 6 years for this fact to sink in among US and western "foreign policy" experts. Those weapons, always primarily aimed at India can conceivably be used against anyone else who stands agains the brand of Islam that 50% of the Pakistani army cadre, a large percentage of the Paki population and much of the Taliban stand for.
Furthermore - if you look at this issue from a Pakistani standpoint - in that the US is forcing two groups of Pakistan to fight each other and is furiously funding the Paki army despite the army quite candidly working against US interests, the options open to Pakist are as follows
1. Make the Taliban moderate. Since the Taliban are Muslims and they cannot be "moderated" - this option is not on
2. Get into permanent conflict with the Taliban with US assistance. The US wants this, but for Pakistan this is a disaster
3. Become Islamized and agree with the Taliban. They are not really that bad. They are just Muslims, fellow Muslims at that and balls to the US.
The choice for Pakistan should be a no brainer.

Just hope the MSA article is not start of the countdown to some event that ISI would have planned to welcome Namo.
I am also reminded of "there will be tremendous backlash if Modi is elected" statement that a commie friend of mine stated. This was more to do with the dreams of these anti-nationals to see anarchy. Not to forget the academia in California are ready with the template to manage armed conflicts in India.

Sri Lanka shuts terror door on Pakistan
NEW DELHI: Sri Lanka has banned visas on arrival for Pakistanis after investigations showed that jihadist groups targeting India were using Sri Lanka as a transit point. Lanka is also one of the few countries that extended such a facility to Pakistani nationals.
A bomb blast in a Chennai train in May revealed new plots against India by Pakistan-based jihadist groups using Sri Lanka and Maldives as transit points. A multinational investigation including Malaysia zeroed in on a Lankan national, Shakir Hussain, who confessed that he had visited India over 20 times on reconnaissance trips.
Modi, in his first conversations with Lankan President Mahinda Rajapaksa, had raised this issue which he said was of particular sensitivity to India. On his return, Rajapaksa is believed to have launched an investigation. The results of the probe have contributed to the decision.
In a related development, Sri lankan authorities have been rounding up Pakistani asylum seekers — almost 1,500 of them will be deported back to Pakistan. This has invited sharp criticism from human rights activists and the UN, because many of them are Ahmadiyas (a banned sect in Pakistan) and Shia Muslims.
The Pakistani foreign office has also been informed that its nationals would henceforth need pre-departure visas to travel to Sri Lanka. The Lankan government probe revealed that many Pakistanis are arriving as tourists by taking advantage of easy visas on "electronic travel authorization" but staying on as "refugees". In 2013, the UNHRC recorded almost 1,500 Pakistani asylum seekers. Lanka has now decided to deport all Pakistanis who have overstayed their visas.
While Indians have traditionally focused on north India as points of infiltration by Pakistan-supported elements, south India poses a particular danger.

OT: All recent "Bally-Wood" movies are unwatchable coz everyone in there is a wannabe, and I am talking about everyone including the likes of SRK. They are either wannabe "mughals", or wannabe white-man. There is no third alternative in any major BallyWood movie. It is infested with the same clowns having the same disease that infests the DIE, infact it is a mirror of the DIE and the movies reek of disgusting elitism most of the time.
The Baki influx into Bally-Wood is a perfect example of DIE thinking of Baki == Indian. What they are really saying is "DIE==RAPE". That statement maybe true most of the time, their brotherhood comes from self-hatred and an assumed sense of superiority. The Bakis assume that they are superior than SDREs , including the ones that are involved in Track-II or BallyWood or A-Monkey-Asha. They also hate the ajlafs. The DIE assume that they are better than the unwashed, casteist, superstitious and destitute Yindoo masses. They both hate the fact that they are not a gora admi born in the bowels of Londonistan. The emphasis on "fine writing in English" is a hallmark of that gora-slave mentality. MSAs recent farticle is an example, very good yingleesh and knowledge of Oiropeean history, which is as relevant to an Indian as bicycle is to a fish, but that article is as logically hollow as they come.
The rest of India (non-DIE folks) give a rats-musharraf on whether Bakis live or die, let alone be their "==", but they dont have the power of media behind them. Bakis of course will stay baki even though they come to Bally-Wood and act as entitled SOBs that they think they are, because they think that "they should rule" India. Our elites will then show their big hearts and treat them like a scorned younger brother, all in the name of "==".

India-Pak to discuss fresh timeline for trade liberalization - PTI, ToI
OK, the Modi government wants to experience perfidy first hand.
OK, the Modi government wants to experience perfidy first hand.
Minister for commerce and industry Nirmala Sitharaman will meet her Pakistani counterpart Khurram Dastgir Khan for the first time next month to discuss a fresh roadmap for removing bottlenecks in liberalization of bilateral trade.
The meeting between Sitharaman and Khan will take place on the sidelines of SAFTA ministerial council in Bhutan on July 24.
"I will meet the Indian state minister for commerce for resumption of bilateral trade talks," Khan was quoted as saying.
It will be first high level trade interaction since the BJP came to power.
An official of commerce ministry told PTI that trade liberalization will be on the top of the agenda when the commerce ministers meet.
"We missed an early deadline of December 31, 2012 to remove all hurdles in the trade relations.{Huh, what is this 'we' business?} Now the two governments will try to agree on fresh roadmap for it," he said.
He said India should address concerns of business community in Pakistan regarding non-tariff barriers and other issues which could impact export after trade liberalization.{Pakistan is going back to square one by reviving the old tune. The earlier trade negotiations had gone well past that point}

A week old.
India’s status in the Islamic Republic of Pakistan’s trade basket based on official figures which I presume to mean excludes a guesstimated portion of the Islamic Republic’s trade with Dubai which is assumed as having originated in India:
Read it all :Based India is today Pakistan’s eleventh largest trading partner. In terms of imports to Pakistan, India is Pakistan’s seventh largest source for imports. This figure is even more interesting since, of the largest exporters to Pakistan, three are oil-exporting countries (Saudi Arabia, UAE and Kuwait) and Malaysia, which exports mainly palm oil to Pakistan. Despite hostilities, wars and diplomatic breakdowns, the difficulties with visas and restricted communication between the two countries, Pakistan imported (based only on official figures, one must emphasise, which are perhaps 60 percent of actual volume) more from India than it did in from France, Canada, Switzerland, the Netherlands, Turkey, Iran or even Thailand. Pakistan imports from India about the same value as it does from Japan. Prior to the 2008 Mumbai attacks, India was Pakistan’s fourth largest source for non-oil imports – an amazing state given the political relations between the two countries.

Lokesh if this was America it would be called "Free market choice" or some such thing. Bollywood makes a whole lot of money from expatriates in the gulf - not just from India. And some money is made indirectly from rich Pakis as well. Bollywood balances patriotism with their income - which is why there are so many Arabic sounding songs and pseudosecular themes.LokeshC wrote: The Baki influx into Bally-Wood is a perfect example of DIE thinking of Baki == Indian.
While it is OK to bash Bollywood for its pseudopatriotism we really don't know how much Indian pharma and automobile spare parts and other companies are making out of Pakistan. Indian business houses that have interests in the Gulf probably find Bollywood an ally and they probably have functions featuring Bollywood stars as freebies to promote business interests.
The "bottom line" always makes people think differently. Whoda thunk that the land of marathas would give reservation for Muslims along with marathas. If it gets me elected and makes my wallet fatter I like it. That is democracy and capitalism isn't it? As long as Bollywood is not overtly anti-national or unashamedly stupid like Mani Shankar Aiyer, it may be best to ignore it. I doubt if jingoism is going to get rampant in Bollywood.

This is correct. The author is saying what has been occurring to me in recent days. The Pakistani army, JuD and LeT are getting ideologically closer - with Pakistan's "Army Two" of pious jihad pasand Muslims being the government paid functionaries as opposed to "private parties" like JuD.“The JuD believes it is likely to acquire access to nuclear technology by not going against the Pakistani State. It may come sooner than we con imagine given the JuD’s ability to realise its plans systematically and cool headedly,”
But it is misleading to think that LeT/JuD will acquire nukes separate from the Pakistan army. Their acquisition of nuclear weapons will be by coopting the Pakistan army and filling up the Pakistani army with JuD/LeT and Taliban sympathizers.
Like I said - it will be 6 to 7 years (around 2020 to 21) before the US starts admitting that Jihadis have nukes in Pakistan
As far as India is concerned, we must be ready for nuclear war. India may get hit by a few nukes, but we must be ready to nuke the shit out of Pakistan. The situation is too serious for any lesser plans.

Re: Sunni Terrorist Fragments of Unstable Pakistan - 21 Apr
That was a LoL comment on Chaudhry's Tribune article of "Track II" feat 

Afghanistan is not a Lesotho, that is completely landlocked and surrounded by a single country namely South Africa. Afghanistan does share borders with other countries besides Pakistan. India can and does access Afghanistan via these other countries, Iran being foremost among them. Thus Pakistan has no ability to prevent India having access to Afghanistan. Pakistan only has the ability to make it more comfortable for Indian access. Pakistan’s recalcitrance on this count is a hardship that India can indefinitely endure. What that means is Pakistan can disabuse itself of the flawed notion it holds something of great value to India that can be traded.
In sum, The Air Vice marshal’s comment reminds me of a rather plain looking girl in the mohalla who puts on laughable airs having convinced herself that she was Katrina Kaif and all lusted after her.

Re: Sunni Terrorist Fragments of Unstable Pakistan - 21 Apr
What does it mean when they say that a terrorist organization like JuD or freedom fighter force like TTP would acquire Nukes.
Is the contention that somewhere Nukes are already in assembled state and they can be picked up on a grocery cart and carted away or that these organizations would acquire Nukes in CBK form and assemble them in some local garage in Lahore or some Paan-Bidi shop in Peshawar using Jinn technology.
This whole premise of terror organizations acquiring nukes is based upon stupid assumptions that nukes somehow are available like SAM or Ghauri missiles and someone can sneak in and steal them.
Those who are expecting some big bang attack on Kahuta and then Nukes getting stolen are in far a big disappointment.
In most likelihood case, these terrorist organizations would acquire nukes by becoming rulers in TSP (or maybe they already are going by the Jehadization of Pak Army) and thus have access to the jewels and the screwdrivers.

X Posted from the “Oppression Of Minorities In Pakistan” thread.
Human Rights Watch issues a 62 page report on the topic of Green on Green Intra-Mohammadden Religion motivated sectarian violence in the Islamic Republic of Pakistan titled "We are the Walking Dead".
HRW Report clearly shows that Mohammaddens of the minority Shia sect of Mohammaddenism will continue paying the bloody price for unwisely supporting the formation of a country, namely the Islamic Republic of Pakistan, as a supposed safe haven for the adherents of that religion residing on the Indian Sub-Continent.
Further HRW Report does nothing to buttress the claim by followers of Mohammaddenism that their Religion is “The Religion Of Peace”.
Reading the HRW report also made me realise that I had over the past five years come across no such similar instances of internecine killings in other religious groups such as Buddhists, Christists, Hindus, Jains or Jews over issues of interpretation of religion anywhere in the world. Can anyone point out if I am mistaken by pointing out cases over the past five years anywhere in the world, of Hinayana Buddhists killing Mahayana Buddhists or vice versa, or Catholic Christists killing Protestant Christists or vice versa, or Shivite Hindus killing Vaishnavite Hindus or vice versa, or Digamber Jains killing Shwetamber Jains or vice versa, or Ashkanazie Jews killing Sephardic Jews or Vice versa; all over differences of interpretation of their respective religions? Or is it that the Mohammaddenism is somehow a special lone case among the world’s religions when it comes to the matter of killing co-religionists over interpretation of own religion?

A former Pakistan Army spokesperson has revealed that former army chief Gen (retd) Ashfaq Pervez Kayani was reluctant to launch a major military offensive against Taliban militants in North Waziristan despite the military leadership's decision three years ago.
Speaking during an interview with BBC Urdu published on Monday, former DG Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) Maj Gen (retd) Athar Abbas said that the military leadership of the country was in favour of launching the military offensive in 2010, however, it could not have been launched due to the indecision of Gen Kayani.
He said dealing with Haqqani Network was one of the reasons for the delay, adding that there was another issue of internally displaced persons (IDPs).

Re: Sunni Terrorist Fragments of Unstable Pakistan - 21 Apr
MSA forgets that it wasnt Mumbai which caused a chill in India-Pak relationship, it was Kargil. Prior to Kargil, India had made a sincere attempt at normalization, announced CBMs like relaxed visa norms and had agreed to a framework for compromise on JK (the same borders are irrelevant crap that Mushy touted later). What did India get in return? Kargil.
"Nawaz didnt know" was total nonsense. Several people have corroborated that he knew and wanted either Pak army to capture JK outright or get him leverage for subsequent negotiations about JK. That was the biggest betrayal.
The decade between Kargil and Mumbai, even after 9/11 and subsequent Unkil's attempt at forced friendship between India and Pakistan, there was very little movement in normalization of relationship and finally when things started to look up, due to mutually declared ceasefire along LoC, border fencing and dropoff in JK terrorism (which by the way was because Pakistani jihadi machinery was directed towards Afghanistan and the fencing and patrolling by Indians and not due to any policy change by Pakistan) Mumbai happened. It was merely the last straw. And oh, Parliament attack happened in between. So did Akshardam attack, massive attack on Mumbai trains just to name a few. People forget that more people died and were injured in Mumbai train attacks than during the 2008 mumbai attack.
Equating the two big setbacks in normalization of relationship between India and Pakistan: Kargil and Mumbai with a lone terrorist who caused WW1 is stupid at best and mischievous at worst. Kargil had full political and military backing. It was a military act of war. Entire Northern Flight Infantry was attacking India (by that measure, WW1 had already happened. Anyone notice the parallels between trench warfare of WW1 and dug in positions in Kargil? Thank god for the invention of artillery and air power else we would have lost as much as WW1 to take back the dug in positions.) and that happened due to Musharraf's orders and under Nawaz Sharif's tacit approval. Mumbai again was a planned operation which probably Zardari didnt know anything about, but had the full support of the ISI and assistance of Pakistan Navy. So viewing Kasab as "lone gunman" is idiocy (by the way he wasnt "lone" he had lot of friends who had to be killed after much bravery and sacrifice).
Kasab is merely a manifestation of Pakistan's policy of hostility and terror against India. If MSA really wanted peace between India and Pakistan and if had any brain cells left, he would see that the best way to ensure uninterrupted and uninterruptible dialog is prompt prosecution and punishment by Pakistan of everyone involved in Mumbai attacks. Thats how "moderates can be strengthened" in India, because after the next terror attack there will be a constituency in India who will argue that the state machinery of Pakistan did not support the attack and it is in our benefit to let them arrest and prosecute people who did so. Instead "lets all forget Mumbai and hug each other tight" is the approach that is most likely to lead to war next time a terror attack happens.
But everyone here knows prosecution of Mumbai attackers aint happening any time soon.
"Nawaz didnt know" was total nonsense. Several people have corroborated that he knew and wanted either Pak army to capture JK outright or get him leverage for subsequent negotiations about JK. That was the biggest betrayal.
The decade between Kargil and Mumbai, even after 9/11 and subsequent Unkil's attempt at forced friendship between India and Pakistan, there was very little movement in normalization of relationship and finally when things started to look up, due to mutually declared ceasefire along LoC, border fencing and dropoff in JK terrorism (which by the way was because Pakistani jihadi machinery was directed towards Afghanistan and the fencing and patrolling by Indians and not due to any policy change by Pakistan) Mumbai happened. It was merely the last straw. And oh, Parliament attack happened in between. So did Akshardam attack, massive attack on Mumbai trains just to name a few. People forget that more people died and were injured in Mumbai train attacks than during the 2008 mumbai attack.
Equating the two big setbacks in normalization of relationship between India and Pakistan: Kargil and Mumbai with a lone terrorist who caused WW1 is stupid at best and mischievous at worst. Kargil had full political and military backing. It was a military act of war. Entire Northern Flight Infantry was attacking India (by that measure, WW1 had already happened.
