Harishbhai,

(But seriously, can you reproduce that survey for us here?)

http://www.altmuslim.com/a/a/a/2583/

The CNN-IBN Pakistan and India polls are out.. (State of the nation polls)

In this context Jinnah got an approval rating of 97% in Pakistan and 43% in India.

Gandhi got an approval rating 29% in Pakistan and 85% in India.

Harishbhai,

Socialism, yes, communism no. Socialism has never been strict on atheism, communism very much so. Communism was never the rage in the Islamic world, it was imposed upon by force in Islamic world. Eg Soviet Central Asia, Afghanistan.

Cheema sahib,

Muslims have not taken kindly to either secularism or communism.

Harishbhai,

Remember that survey quoted by YLH. Only 20 odd % Pakistanis approved of MKG.

Cheema sahib,

I didnt say that Talibs love him, I said they dont hate him. Btw you may ponder over something.

Etymologically:

Jihad = Satyagraha (Struggle for Truth)
Hukumat-e-Ilahi = Ram Rajya (Rule of God)

Harishbhai,

(BB died)

She did not die, she was killed.

Btw, Ruttie remained MAJ (pbuh) wife till her death. They were separated, not divorced.

(Of all Indian politicians of that era, only Gandhi finds approval with Pakis)

Evidence???

Nkg moshai,

(If Zardari knows that you are comparing him with Gandhi, he will offer highest civilian honor of Pakistan.)

No. Pakistanis (except the Taliboon) hate MKG. AZ will file a defamation suit against me.

Romair,

Is AZ a worse guy than the average politician in any Third World country?

Harishbhai,

In more ways than one the G-man can be bracketed with the Z-man. The G man allowed his wife to do by refusing her treatment. Maybe you can check up with some of the better informed Pak analysts here about BB's death.

Nadeem,

(We had a shot at getting Kashmir. We stopped midway and declared a unilateral ceasefire.)

No, you were beaten by the Indian Army.

You could have got Kashmir. Without fighting. But you chose to sacrifice the substance of Kashmir for the shadow of Hyderabad.

To add to what Zee sahib says:

If NS had learnt, what would he have done differently?
What would have been the payoffs to each party?

Zee sahib,

NS cudnt have done anything differently. AZ and the establishment wud possibly have asked him to compromise on the judges but that would have destroyed his credibility and support among the masses.

Tahmed sahib,

So basically the bipeds ( to borrow from Nkg moshai) of this World can be divided into two broad species.

One, contributes Internet and space technology but also has a reptilian side which is demonstrated in using Drones, cruise missiles, White Phosphorus, depleted uranium and nukes to kill folks.

Second, which lives mainly between the Mediterranean in the West and Arakan Yoma in the East, is largely reptilian chimp-like in behaviour.

Tahmed sahib,

What species of animals use Drones, cruise missiles, White Phosphorus, depleted uranium and nukes to kill folks?
