Re: lastest from Pakistan

India and Pakistan got there independence at the same time. The difference is the first line of the Pakistani constitution states Pakistan will be a Muslim country. IMHO every word after that negates democracy.

The democracy that they had in the past was just on paper, similar to how it was with Saddam in Iraq. Worthless.

Although they may not be Arab per say, that is the closest comparison.

ISI, Pakistani Military, Al Qaeda, Taliban are all in bed together. And Musharraf is the ring leader. He is a terrorist.

Prejudice FTW!

You don't think that Pakistan's Indian history makes them a bit different?

Prejudice? Whatever dude. I don't know where you get from. Any country that is a theocracy first cannot have a successful democracy.

They might be back...

The more and more I think about this, the more and more I realize that the truth is so obscured by the different factions and their conflicting statements as to her cause of death. I don't think I'm going to trust much until an investigation has been conducted. As it is, they buried her without so much as an autopsy. So all of these statements are subject to skepticism.

Re: lastest from Pakistan

Even the skepticism of the given conclusions should be subjected to an investigation. The results of said investigation should be treated with diligent skepticism before drawing future conclusions to be "skepticized" and investigated. Only then will we be presented with solid conclusions grounded in fact which can spawn proper conspiracy theories. Which must be investigated and treated with skepticism.

Although Bush is a retard and I would like to pin this on him. They have had an insurgency trying to take over the country for 50 years, this is nothing new and doesn't have anything to do with us.
Thats basically what I'm saying at work when we discuss our weekly political discussions.. Its just totally messed up right now and she was just pretty much all we had to bring back stability but still was corrupt...

A theology works great if you put the majority of the population behind a wall.

Re: lastest from Pakistan

Good. Just making sure you recognized that Israel is in the same boat.
