The idiot Ejaz Hide-here thinks of himself as some highbrow intellect

While the military, given its strict vertical hierarchy and organizational cohesiveness, acts—or should act—as a single entity, the term ‘civilian’ has multiple shades. The umbrella term ‘military’ denotes a tightly coupled system, to use Charles Perrow’s term, while ‘civilian’ denotes different, differing and often bickering entities.

In an unbalanced political system, therefore, in terms of operating, the military will always have an edge over the civilians, an edge that a military, if it’s smart, will deftly leverage.

Military has intelligence services and guns. Thats why they prevail over the civilians. Not because of Charles Perrow's "bickering entities" vs "Organizational cohesiveness". Think about it this way, why do people fear the police? Because police have "organizational cohesiveness" and the Society is "bickering entities"? It is because police have guns and can throw you in jail. It is as simple as that. Replace police with Army and Society with Pakistan, its same same.

Also the entire article after singing praises about the bad sharif, is essentially about "Will he get an extension or wont he get an extension"

ejaz haider IIRC is nothing but an ISI tool always singing the praises of his military bosses

There are several factors in the world in current times that are favorable for India. Slowing China and world economy and rising India economy, plunged international oil prices, growing realization of Islamic threat, changed perception of Pakistan by western world (govt and people) and finally a strong and dynamic leader in Modi. I hope India takes the best advantage of the good times and extract maximum benefit in the rise of India and get to an enviable position in the world.

Okay it's started.
India last year added about 22,000 MW electricity generating capacity. Pakistan's total generation is about 21,000 MW.

Mohammadden “Exorcist” Tasawer Islam believes his friend and fellow “Exorcist” Zakariyya Islam was murdered by “someone who controls ……….. ‘Jinns’” aka Djinn’s aka aka Djinni’s aka Genie’s as in Alladin and his Lamp:

Tasawer Islam added: 'The only person that I can think would have something against him is someone to do with his work.

'It will be someone who controls these powers 'Jinns'. They have to go through a lot of effort to attack someone with Jinns and if he has exorcised someone then they have to go through all the trouble again.

'They appear ordinary on the street but in the darkness of night that's what they do.'

Muslim exorcist who expelled demons by quoting passages from the Koran is stabbed to death at his east London black magic healing centre

Black magic healer pierced girl, 3, with 11 needles to cure her of ‘evil spirit’ : Sinister rise of Islamic exorcisms in Britain

With the UK seemingly having a lot of Jinn’s running about the Islamic Republic of Pakistan will no doubt be digging up and sending former senior Pakistan Atomic Energy Commission (PAEC) official Sultan Bashiruddin Mahmood there to further his research on solving the Islamic Republic of Pakistan’s energy problems by tapping Jinn power:

Sultan Bashiruddin Mahmood, a nuclear engineer who was one of three Pakistani scientists arrested last week because of their suspected connections with the Taliban, is an expert on nuclear weapons production, but also a fundamentalist Muslim with unorthodox scientific views, scientists familiar with the Pakistani scientific circles said today.

During more than 30 years in Pakistan's nuclear program, he pioneered construction of plants to produce enriched uranium and plutonium for Pakistan's small but growing arsenal of atomic weapons. But as a subscriber to a brand of what is known to practitioners as ''Islamic science,'' which holds that the Koran is a fount of scientific knowledge, Mr. Bashiruddin Mahmood has published papers concerning djinni, which are described in the Koran as beings made of fire. He has proposed that these entities could be tapped to solve the energy crisis, and he has written on how to understand the mechanics of life after death. …………………..

Pakistan has second strike capability against India

ISLAMABAD: Former defence secretary retired Lt Gen Naeem Khalid Lodhi has claimed that Pakistan possesses second strike capability against India.The second strike provides a military the capability to hit back at an enemy in a situation where its land-based nuclear arsenal had been neutralized.The former defence secretary said that despite the growing conventional imbalance, Pakistan had certain strengths including the nuclear parity with India and credible nuclear deterrence.The nuclear deterrence, he said, had been augmented by the second strike capability, efficient delivery systems and effective command and control system.He did not explain any specifics about the second strike capability, which could be sea, air or land based.It is still unclear if Pakistan was any closer to the submarine based ‘assured second strike capability’ for stable deterrence, particularly at time when India has already made the moves towards it.Discussing Pakistan’s second strike capability, President SVI Dr Zafar Iqbal Cheema said that Pakistan had improved its second strike capability.Pakistan’s second strike capability, Dr Cheema said, has been augmented by deployment of Hatf-VII/Baber nuclear capable cruise missile that is launchable from aircrafts and conventional submarines. It is further fortified by the deployment of Hatf-VIII/Ra’ad air launched cruise missile, he added.Technically speaking, he maintained, the best mode of second strike capability is submarine launched ballistic missiles (SLBMs), which neither India nor Pakistan have deployed as yet.

And they can't make a sewing machine.

Meanwhile the BBC reports that the Islamic Republic of Pakistan has just “eight paediatric heart surgeons and 21 paediatric cardiologists” for her some 200 Million something population:


Why Pakistan is struggling to heal young heart patients


To place the above in perspective, the Punjabi Military Dominated Deep State of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan has produced more Nuclear Weapon Warheads than it has produced paediatric cardiac surgeons and paediatric cardiologist combined. The Nuclear Warhead/Weapon to paediatric cardiac surgeon/paediatric cardiologist ratio is 120:29 or close to 4:1:


Pakistan’s nuclear arsenal could become the world’s third-biggest


India must do its bit for world peace and the children of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan by ensuring that the Punjabi Military dominated Deep State of Islamic Republic produces less Nuclear Weapon Warheads by forcing them to produce more paediatric cardiac surgeon/paediatric cardiologist. This can be done by India refusing to permit the Punjabi Military dominated Deep State of Islamic Republic of Pakistan shirking their responciibility towards the children of their subjects by permitting the Indian Health Care System to provide paediatric cardiac care such as in this most recent case:


Pakistani boy gets a heart from Hyderabad

Small hindu hearts easily fit inside children thats why children from Pakistan come to India for heart transplant. Large Pakistani hearts cannot fit inside their small chest cavity of small children who need such transplants. Also, being cold, hindu hearts can be preserved for a longer time. Warm Pakistani hearts tend to decompose quickly and are difficult to transplant.

^^^^ That's post of the day .....

^^^ +2, ................ Nicely put Anujan.

And for those wishing to revisit Shahid Afridi’s “heart” comment of “If I speak truthfully, they just can’t have the kind of heart a Muslim has or a Pakistani has. I think they don’t have the sort of big hearts, pure hearts, Allah has given us.” :

India’s ‘small hearts’ and Afridi’s big mouth

Former Uniformed Jihadi of the Military of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan who served as a Pilot with the Islamic Republic’s Air Force by name of Syed Sheaba Ahmad turns out to be an Un-uniformed Jihadi and is arrested among others for financing the Green on Green Intra-Mohammadden religion based sectarian attack on a bus load of Shia sect and Ismaili subsect people at Safoora Goth in Karachi.

With the Un-uniformed Jihadi’s name being prefaced by the title “Syed” which denotes descent from founder of Mohammaddenism, is this the halal act of an Islamic Republic and “Ideological Muslim State”? :

Pakistan Arrests Top Financier Of Al-Qaeda, Other Terror Groups

Meanwhile it will be recollected that the Green on Green Intra-Mohammadden religion based sectarian attack at Safoora Goth for which Syed Sheaba Ahmad has now been arrested was initially sought by the Punjabi Military Dominated Deep State of Pakistan to be pinned on India:

RAW’s hand in Safoora Goth incident being probed: Qaim

As long as Pakees are just getting their ASDs/VSDs repaired in India it is not a problem...It should be ensured that these are done in a teaching hospital and DM/McH residents manage the whole case , with just a nominal oversight from the consultants...would be good practice for them as the case load is declining at many places and residents often have less confidence due to that..

But no pakee or any other foreigner for that matter , should get heart or other organ transplant in India.. We have a massive shortage of organs for Indians ... Most countries have legislated that a foreigner can only get an organ if there is no national waiting in the registry..which is essentially a ban because that can never happen ... it would be criminal to transplant hearts to pakees when many Indians die in the wait list...

Pakistan - Afghanistan Trade Going Nowhere

Key Pakistani-Afghan trade deals stall on India, souring ties

ISLAMABAD: Pakistan and Afghanistan have shelved a raft of agreements that promised to more than triple cross-border trade, officials said, as economic ties seen as key to regional stability fall victim to rivalry and suspicion.

The trade deals were supposed to be a step towards warmer relations and boosting Afghanistan-Pakistan trade from $1.6 billion now to $5bn by 2017.

But officials told Reuters that the agreements, which include reducing tariffs and granting each other preferential trade status, have stalled.

“There has been no progress or further meetings for months since those agreements were signed,” said Musafer Qoqandi, the Afghan Commerce Ministry's spokesman.

The key bone of contention was whether Pakistan would allow trade from old rival India to cross its territory.

“If Pakistan and Afghanistan aren't able to agree on relatively simple trade initiatives that benefit both countries, how can they be expected to make progress in security cooperation?” asked Vaqar Ahmed, deputy executive director at Islamabad's Sustainable Development Policy Institute (SDPI).

^^^^

One country benefitting from the chill between Pakistan and Afghanistan is neighbouring Iran.

Afghan transit trade with Iran has increased steadily since 2007. In 2011, it supplanted Pakistan as Afghanistan's largest transit trade partner in terms of containers shipped, according to SDPI.

“Perhaps Pakistan thinks that it is twisting Afghanistan's arm by stopping these trade initiatives,” said Ahmed of SDPI.

“But very soon, Iran could make Pakistan irrelevant.”

Chabahar! India, Iran --- Just Do It!

This is a cross post from the USA positive news thread. A black boy called Ahmed Mohammed made a clock at home and took it to school where he was arrested because they thought it was a bomb.

Irving 9th-grader arrested after taking homemade clock to school: 'So you tried to make a bomb?'

So why is this news here? I post it here because, despite denials I see this as the reputation that Islam has gained. If you are a Muslim you are probably violent - you will probably want to kill people with a gun or a bomb. This is a sign of the times and I post it here because I think Pakistan has played no small role in ensuring that Islam and Muslims are recognized as a source of violent criminal behaviour. No amount of political correctness or secularism can cover up the fact that a huge number of non Muslim people in the world see Islam as fostering violence among other crimes.

Pakistan was the first country to be created for Muslims alone using the argument that Muslims would be unsafe among others. 6 decades later there is nothing about the Islamic republic of Pakistan that suggests peace or non violence. They harboured Al Qaeda and the Taliban. They nurture violent Islamic groups whose leaders like Hafiz Saeed would be arrested if they stepped into most nations of the world. Travel to Pakistan is seen as a red flag that connect up with some terrorist training. Terrorism and sectaarian violence in Pakistan are virtually uncontrollable. In the news right now as I type this are references to Pakistan carrying out the maximum number of executions in the world; Pakistani air force having attacked a village within their own country in revenge for an attack on some soldiers; and an IATA warning that planes overflying Pakistan should beware of MANPADs.

Pakistan's behaviour on the international stage is the finest example we have to show how Islam means violence. This behaviour is precious. It can always be used politically and as a propaganda point. Protestation that Islam is not violent can only come if people who say that can clean up the millions of acts of Islamic violence visible in the world - and ultimately clean up Pakistan. The latter ain't gonna happen soon.

Reham - Jemima Proxy War?

Jemima is jealous and wants to ruin Reham and Imran Khan’s marriage, says Reham’s family

LONDON (Web Desk) – Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf Chairman Imran Khan Khan was married around eight months ago, but the family of his wife Reham khan, is already at war with his ex-wife, Jemima Goldsmith, Daily Mail reported on Thursday.

The UK based newspaper reported that Reham’s cousin who does not want to be named publicly, claims Jemima is behind the negative stories that have appeared about Reham in different media outlets.

‘We know what Jemima is doing,’ claims the cousin. ‘We know that she is behind this smear campaign. She doesn’t want Imran’s marriage to succeed because she is jealous.’

Imran divorced Jemima in 2004 after nine years of marriage, but they have remained on friendly terms.

‘Jemima can’t get her own man, that’s why she doesn’t want Imran’s marriage to succeed,’ [*] Reham’s cousin explains.
[/b]
‘Reham and Imran are in love and very happy together. Reham is going to give an interview, in her own time, in which she will rebut all the baseless smears against her.’

However, Jemima’s family spokesman strenuously denies being involved in any ‘smear campaign’, and said, ‘Jemima is fully supportive of her ex-husband.

‘She wished Imran and Reham well at the time of their marriage and continues to do so.’

Reham Khan did not comment on this story so far.

[*] Kaptaan caught in the middle? ; seems that the current Mrs. Imran Khan has enlisted her extended Khandaan in Londonistan to the cause of her marraige

Regarding the type of news and analysis that should go in this thread, I have a mucho brilliant idea!

How about creating a NEW thread - "Pakistan: Serious News & Analysis", and in a couple of years when that too cannot keep up with desired seriousness, one could again start an additional NEWER thread - "Pakistan: Very Serious News & Analysis".

I guess it is next to impossible to keep a Pakistan thread free of humor and laughs.

Army chief inaugurates Foreign Funded development projects in South Waziristan

RAWALPINDI: Chief of Army Staff (COAS) General Raheel Sharif on Wednesday visited South Waziristan and inaugurated multiple development projects as part of a comprehensive rehabilitation plan after the end of combat operations in the area, said a statement from the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR).[*]

[*] Someone should ask the propangandu arm of the Paki Army the reasons as to why the media is not allowed to report on the results of the on-going operations ; is it because, to use an analogy, an elephant is used to kill a mosquito?

The army chief, as part of his visit, inaugurated a cadet college in Wana which was funded by the United Arab Emirates (UAE).[*] The cadet college will provide education for upto 500 children of the area, according to the ISPR statement.

[*] When is the Paki nation going to stand on its own two feet? Begging from phoren countries left and right

In Dera Ismail Khan (DI Khan), the army chief also inaugurated a USAID funded 62km road[*] between DI Khan and Tank.

[*] Another example of Paisa Dae Do

“Operation Zarb-i-Azb is in its final stage, and Pakistan Army has evicted terrorists from the area with the support of the entire nation,” stated General Raheel Sharif.

Ph.D Thesis, From A "Fly By Night" University In Pakistan, Submitted By An Pakistani "Information Technology Specialist" Found To Be " 72% Plagiarised"


Copy-paste doctorate: Comsats pro-rector’s PhD thesis found 72% plagiarised

ISLAMABAD:

The PhD thesis of the Pro Rector of Comsats Institute of Information Technology (CIIT) and chief executive officer of the National Testing Service has been found to be over 70 per cent plagiarised.



Rumours that Dr Haroon Rashid had plagiarised his doctorate thesis were doing the rounds but the Higher Education Commission (HEC) began investigating the issue after it received a complaint about it last month.

The original thesis was submitted at Hamdard University in the PhD programme in 2004 by Rafiqul Zaman Khan titled “Empirical Study of Task Partitioning, Scheduling and Load Balancing Strategies for Distributed Images of Computing System.”

Haroon has been the recipient of Sitara-e-Imtiaz in the previous Pakistan Peoples Party government and has been working with Comsats for over five years.

He has worked for various government organisations over the past 35 years. At least 26 of his articles, mainly in the ICT field, had been published in various national and international journals .

The university’s website[*] only states that he holds a PhD in Computer Sciences.

[*] Just wondering if this "fly by night" outfit is a "subsidiary" of the famous AXACT Corporation headquartered in Krachi

Regional imbalance’ rising from US tilt towards India: Sartaj Aziz

ISLAMABAD: Adviser to the Prime Minister on Foreign Affairs and National Security Sartaj Aziz on Thursday said United State's defence cooperation with India was enhancing imbalance in South Asia, adding that Pakistan's reservations in this regard have been conveyed to the Unites States, Rudali Pakistan reported.Sartaj Aziz said Pakistan had also conveyed to the United States that conventional and non-conventional imbalance in South Asia should be considered while entering into any sort of defence cooperation with India.“It is becoming clear that America is preparing India to reduce the influence of China in the region.”Aziz said for the first time ever Pakistan has prepared a “formal dossier regarding Indian interference in Pakistan” which would be taken to the United Nations for presentation.“India accuses non-state actors from Pakistan of meddling in Indian affairs. But Indian state actors are interfering in Pakistan.”The adviser said Pakistan will highlight the Kashmir issue at the United Nations and other forums, adding that bilateralism envisaged in the Shimla Agreement failed to achieve any progress.Responding to points raised by some members, Sataj Aziz said that during the recent meeting between the director generals of Pakistani Rangers and the Indian Border Security Force (BSF), the two sides agreed to discuss ceasefire violations on the Working Boundary.“Now India is resorting to violations on the Line of Control and is using the pretext of infiltration for its cross-LoC firing.”

Pakis have used the expression for years to instantly get American attention as something that is not good for America. But if regional imbalance is an issue for the US - the imbalance between China and nations like Taiwan, the Phillippines, Japan and Korea should be on their minds as much as anything else. In fact with Pakistan getting JF-17s, Chinese nuclear material, 46 billion USD in aid from China apart from Chinese helicopters and tanks - Pakistan itself is a cause of "regional imbalance"

When Aziz talks with his forked tongue I am reminded of a man in holy robes with a smug expression on his face standing with an erect exposed penis poking out of his middle. A liar and a fraud.

There used to be an Edgar Rice Burroughs fantasy with people having snake heads and in robes.

Takla Aziz would fit right there.

In a few more years time, comments like these by the TSP guys will elicit more laughs than anything else, because the imbalance between India & TSP will be so great that it would be blitheringly obvious to the most asinine == type who worries about indoo nationalists and aman ki asha and stereotypes and what not.
However, the TSP will then change tack and claim US is exacerbating this imbalance and so they are ramping up their n-production;n at the same time reports of Taliban getting inroads and what not into TSP. That's my prediction and you heard it here first. So the Int'l community is spooked into giving more aid and providing weapons to keep the TSP forces at an artificial parity vs India.
We will have to run a very tight ship in our acquisitions, going beyond the babu/red tape driven delays and also ramp up our domestic MIC like never before, to keep pace and also develop and maintain a dissuasive gap without it impinging on our national objectives of raising per capita economic growth.

in my opinion, wouldn't ramping up our domestic MIC actually contribute to elevating the per capita economic growth? With new industries and supply chains and the associated infrastructure that will come up, there will be more jobs for skilled and unskilled manpower and that should feed into the economy.

exactly, we need a domestic MIC to achieve the above and mitigate the effects of imports. right now, we are import heavy. while TSP is attempting to get donations. my "it"meant acquisitions but that run on sentence is mixing things up. shoulda been clearer.

Khush Khabrein. Dark Green Freedom Fighters have attacked Pissawar Airport. TV will blame RAA agints. SSGandus will kill 12 "heavily armed hard core" terrorists using Djinn magic.
