Re: # 361

One of the greatest things India did to itself was the Zamindari Abolition Act.

I feel that if Pakistan, like India, had enacted a law that gave the land to the tiller, their plight wouldn't have been so pathetic. India had a modern-age saint like Acharya Vinoba Bhave who led the movement of "Bhoo-daan" i.e. gifting away land by big landlords to landless. Pakistan, in its hateful attitude towards India, has missed to see how a diverse society like India has successfully kept army in barracks, maintained democratic rule and done many good things for the poor. It is still not too late. Pakistan should bury the old hatchet and be friends with India. K B Kale, Jakarta

I have been banned by chowk staff. You are lying when you says that the Pakistan sex ratio for under 15 is the same as India's . India's is much higher and unique in being that high due to female fetus infanticide. It is the PROVEN reason now not a speculation.

Under 15? Did you dream that up? What the hell is fetus infanticide? Abortion is legal in India - how about Pakistan? Why are the ratios the same in both countries?

Also I did not say that marital rape was always prosecuted as crime. I even gave u the date when it started being prosecuted. But when it did it was not considered a NEW crime, it was prosecuted as RAPE proper.

Marital rape and date rape were not even on the horizon as far as criminal law was concerned, they were not part of any statistics and, when they became criminal, they swelled the numbers. In Pakistan rape is likely way undercounted because there is no such thing as marital rape or date rape, right?

Also t I have done more original work compared to most sociologists and you should be sued for claiming to be a human being when you are an ignorant lying moron.

Re: # 347 tahmed
i think that is wonderful. so every thing is now hunky dory. we just have to drop a few dozen daisy cutters in fata, swat, possibly nwpf as well. after which we can start replenishing the stock for islamabad.

sounds like a plan.

Re: # 353 Pakistan Military is the head of the en-lighted Moderates. They need to ask are they real muslims? If they are then do they fight injustice? If yes, they need to side with the simple folk who support the taliban. Enlighted Moderates are the robber barons, and they interested only Swiss bank Accounts

#351 yesterday's use of air force jets in fata, and the clearing out of afghan settlements in islamabad (who may have been harboring sleeper cells of the taliban/alqaeda) provide an early indication of pakistan's response. Let us hope this is the beginning of a serious response.

Skeptical/Khyber: Agreed on mqm. the first (and so far only) party to recognize the face of the real enemy behind the mask of "Islam".

Tahmed sahib,

and now their sights are on Pakistan itself.

The Taliboon ought to have kept their sights only on A'stan and Kashmir, not Pakistan.

wake up Pakistan to the face of the real enemy.

So what are the GOP and Pak Army doing about it?

Regards

majumdar #348 true. but they still live in caves, rather than occupying the palace mullah omar had made for himself in kabul. because Bush switched over to Iraq and afghanistan became what came to be jokingly called the "Welfare War". Bush is gone now, and the US is getting serious about afghanistan again.

Khyber #346 The taliban may be brutal. They may even be clever. But, they are making the same fatal mistake that all power-hungry groups make - their lust for power knows no limit. The receipt of Swat has only vetted their apetite for power, and now their sights are on Pakistan itself. They have already accomplished over the past couple of months what Bush and Co. couldnt accomplish in 8 years - wake up Pakistan to the face of the real enemy.

Tahmed sahib,

Re: 347

It may have escaped your notice that the same folks who ran the govt before 9/11 now control almost all of Pushtoon A'stan and part of Pak too.
