who is the caesar and who is the man with lean and hungry looks.the closest resemblance is Jamshed Gulzar Kiani.Neither is Musharaf fat.Or are you referring to Zardari.I know you since 25 years but you have become philosophical in ur old age.

the situation has to be seen from the wider angle.this is a global low intensity war that will continue for 100 years and may be more.the pakistani army and its int agencies did use the pashtuns as tools.later the punjabis were also talibanised or islamised.the britishers had taken great care to keep punjab docile and in tight control.now even the punjabis are radicalised.even if these are 5 % of punjabs population its a significant number.now the tools of the int agencies have become autonomous.perhaps a portion of paki int agencies have sympathies with the radicals.there is a linkage definitely.the americans in this case targeted the pashtuns as well as the army.the FC being a largely 98 % pashtun force officered by the army.the aircrafts used and the forces were controlled by the american JTF with Headquarters in Bagram.The whole operation was deliberate.Conceived in a month long or may be longer period.Based on the premise that pakistani elite can stand any amount of kicking.as someone on chowk says this elite are the illegitimate offsprings of east india company.the danger are the non state actors.the good or the bad thing is that they will get stronger than the pakistani state within 5 to 10 years.

HP, Zee, Pavo and tahmed,
Yond Cassius has a lean and hungry look;
He thinks too much: such men are dangerous.
ANTONY.
Fear him not, Caesar; he's not dangerous;
He is a noble Roman and well given.
CAESAR.
Would he were fatter! But I fear him not:
Yet, if my name were liable to fear,
I do not know the man I should avoid
So soon as that spare Cassius. He reads much;
He is a great observer, and he looks
Quite through the deeds of men: he loves no plays,
As thou dost, Antony; he hears no music:
Seldom he smiles; and smiles in such a sort
As if he mock'd himself and scorn'd his spirit
That could be moved to smile at any thing.
Such men as he be never at heart's ease
Whiles they behold a greater than themselves;
And therefore are they very dangerous.

Julius Caesar Act 1, scene 2, 190–195

masadi: pandit-hate arjun from India is on your side, trying to mislead Pakistanis into confusing enemies and friends.

Leadenenwater: if you care for pakistan, you may wish to think why the the Pakistan-hating monkeyman of India would love to see Pakistanis see the US as the enemy.

Re: # 70
Lead...
You are taking in different way....
Suppose, within Pakistan, some police personel accidentaly kills some innocent people, while trying to kill criminals. How will you react?
The video (I don't know, how authentic it is), clearly shows that, the bombs were dropped in some deserted areas, where few people were trying to escape attack. They were running...
Without hearing the version from the other side, drawing conclusion is very poor...
Pakistan is not enemy state of US (like Iran or Cuba)....

leadenwater: "filthy money-grubbing hands" belong to those who live on "mooft khori". Like musharraf, like zardari, the crore commanders, like the rest of the corrupt elite of Pakistan and the arab oil-rich sheikhs.

Americans are a hard working, honest people. This internet that you are using, e.g., is thanks to the hard work and enterprise of americans.

Re: # 59
Vengat...

US has supported Pakistan, when US needed as well as Pakistan needed. US is providing good financial aid to re-build Pakistan. Some friendly casualty, and hell broke loose!!! It looks that the attack was not intended for Pak soldiers. They were accidental casualties.....

#66 masadi the liar: When writing "Without the US green light it could never have been accomplished" you imply that you know who killed benazir. If you have such information, then produce it. Or else stand proven as a shameless liar who seeks to mislead Pakistanis with respect to their enemies and friends.

And by putting this lie in bold, you dont make it right. You simply make yourself a shameless liar.

nkg writes "So, what do you expect from US? "

Lies, deception, excuses and the worst barbarism known to man....I expect from them what the average Iraqi butchered over baseless excuses expects from them.
