pinku,
Just be careful there.
Make a distinction between the culture of the INDIC People who lived around Indus and Hinduism as a religion. Also remember the Buddist Tradition that had a far greater impact on meditation.

Being history is one and owning it another.

Beena,
I do not buy this matriachal and Patriachal stuff for a momment. As a national Leader, If Zardari comes out clean on the following, he is my hero.
1. Lukewarm attention to the assasination of his wife.
2. His distancing from PML N, that stood as his firm ally till he decided to eat his words sworne on the Holy Quran.
3. Repeal of the 17th amendment and non indemnity of the mergency bill.
4. A clear cut foreign policy statement manifested as such.
Till the time he does not do that, he has greatness thrust on him.

Rescue services were non existent while serious casualties were seen being dragged or carried in a most unprofessional manner (aggravating injuries). Its time India has some very professional para medic service.
May God Bless all those who have passed way and heal the wounds of those who live.

Ok we will discuss it on mail. This appears to be the worst place to discuss sensitivities.

HP,
For the past few months, two very big operations are going on in Swat and Bajaur.
In Bajaur, Nato has sealed the boundry on one end, while the other exit is heavily gaurded. The army and airforce are striking very hard from the direction of Timargarah towards Munda and Khar. 90% of the area is already rolled up and the militants are in their last strong hold near Inayat Qila/Nawagai. There are many foreign fighters that have been killed. This is the area where predators were used on the suspected position of Al Qaeeda No.2.

In Swat, the nature of terrain with gorges, fast flowing ravines, lack of space for deployment etc make large scale operations very slow.There are too many entries and exits. Still large scale infantry operations are in full swing. This is also the area where plenty of foreign funded intervention has been confirmed. This is an operation which some of our allies may not like.

There is a public consensus developing for these operations, particularly after the WAH bombings. US interventions serve to rattle this consensus.

Thanx for your response.
Normally for long posts, I go through the spell checks. Others I dont bother. But let me share one thought.
I always know the post pasted by me that you would respond to.

A true "crie de la coeur".
Je,accord pas.
Those who flew their planes onto WTC were not motivated by the clash of civilizations but the Brezinski fervour that sent them head on into Soviet Tanks.

"Re: # 33 Ijaz sahib, you play fast and loose with the spellings of great names :D .....that is your signature and I have come to accept it as such..."
Despite the fact that we have always remained cognitively connected, you for once have lost your rational direction, and hence this. I do not use great names but rather tend to view all behavior through some paradigm I accept. Nor have I deflected a discussion because 9/11 and Asia are connected. To cite this just see the post of HP qouting political generals of USA.
Now back to the old paradigm. Suffice it to say;
Eurasia was during Cold War dominated by WASAW PACT (Mckinder).
NATO, CENTO SEATO formed a containment ring. Because communism was thought to be godless, Muslim countries were coopted into the containment ring.(spykesman) Now the same Muslim countries are a problem.
To dominate this ring USA needed a strong naval platform. (MAHAN).

Now tell me where I have played fast and loose.

And I for one never think of Pakistan as a Prussia in this strategic buck buck.

Does someone know of the Eurasian Landmass theory. 9/11 despite all its destruction provided USA with a Time Jump to occupy it.
Mckinder is dead. Long Live Mckinder!
