Re: # 18

The World will be safer when Pakistan ceases to exist and becomes again part of India...

Pakistan is not a good nation...it has made trouble for the world since it was created...

Hi All:

What a pity they say. Is it not ironic that Kosovars were liberated and given freedom by Infidels' bombs! Now onwards Kosovars will be free, free atlast. Time close the borders shut and go back to pristine Medinan days, Inshallah!

Urstruly,

(One day Kashmiris will win their freedom too.)

They are already a free people. They elect their own state and national govts. Plus, their Islamiat is much safer in India:

They have their own personal laws.
They are free to pray in their mosques.
Their members in the Indian security forces dont have to fight USA's WOT.
Their land is not used as a base to bomb Muslims as part of WOT.

Regards

Warmest congratulations to Muslims living in Kosovo. When one considers the history of Kosovo, both ancient and recent, what a group of Muslims has achieved once again is just astonishing. Absolutely nothing short of another fulfilment of Iqbalian dream and determination. One can see the shadows of Pakistan.

More broadly, felicitations are in order for Urstruly, ali_1, and neembu ji too, and to all liberal and secular people everywhere.
----------

bongdongs, NATO is passe. Now it is fighting with shadows. Muslims living in Kosovo are not part of that fight.
