Re: # 148

Iran is in the hands of Ayotollahs and would stab the idolators if they gain in power.

I believe it’s oil sands, the report I read is that it’s quite economical to extract oil from it, since prices are so high plus new technology will be even more efficient, that should lower the extraction costs even more. The oil companies face other obstacles, environment groups and inhospitable climate.

Aslam,

I presume the Canuck oil would be in the form of shale, which is much more expensive to mine and process than the normal crude. Correct me if I am wrong though.

Regards

According to yesterday’s guardian, canucks have six times as much oil as Saudi Arabia. They will be drowning in the stuff soon, their fort mcmurry is experiencing such a boom the like of which the world’s not seen, it’s attracted workers from over seventy countries, from Romanian prostitutes to Punjabi child minders, some of the workers are earning thousand dollars a day. As the prophesy says for those that have shall have more.

Borivilli Express,

There is no such thing as "friendship" among nations - except the general concept of amity among all nations.

Other than that, there are only national self-interests. The leaders of the country put those before anything else.

Pakistan has been an aberration in many ways because most of its leaders have not been true representatives of its people. Unfortunately, you guys stumbled right in the beginning - when the basic poison - the idea of being "separate" was injected into your mindset and through the efforts of Mr. Jinnah, it was ensured that you guys shall forever live in your own coccoon and not be open to the ideas of plurality accepted the world over.

What you guys need (desparately) is to discard that failed mindset rather than keeping on tinkering with it and looking for new "hakims"!

Borivilli mian,

If NWFP people are sovereign why are the Paki gunships bombing them?

(But not a single Hindu has been able to explain their betrayel of Iran)

Why dont you explain your betrayal of the Taliban

( when they espoused the same principle as india had been screaming for 60 years)

Talibs have been espousing the same principle as you guys for 1400 years

(and after Iran had been a friend all these years)

And Talib types have actually been fighting for you, in 1947 and 1999 for eg.

Regards

Once a Bania always a Bania, never trust a Kafir, these are the new watch words in Iran

They are soverign, ask your friend Zeemax, why dont you start by giving the kashmiris the same level of sovereignty? ,)

If that is the case, is the Paki Army there on a picnic?

That terrirtory was never Kashmiri since no kashmiri lived there, it was just a line drawn in no man's land by the british, do you follow?

Oh so now we're into technicalities? But even here, you're wrong. Kashmiri maps since the late 1800s have always shown Aksai Chin (the part gifted away) as part of Kashmir.

Well, Swat and Waziristan are not Pakistan either. They are Pushtoon homelands over which Durand arbit drew a line. Why don't you first give those guys independence and show us beghairat kaffiroons a lesson in freedom.

Borivilli mian,

(Kasmiris are pakis )

Fortunately for them they ain't. Else they would have been smothered by Helicopter gunships and/or White Phosphorus.

Regards
