pakiland has skilled manpower...skilled for suicide bombing...

you could say their manpower is what has given them a booming auto-parts industry..an industry that makes itty-bitty auto parts from cars...

I heard osama's $$ are buying a lot more jihadis now that the paki rupee is sinking...

what else is there to buy in pakiland..it's not like cisco is investing billions of $$ in pakiland..or a paki company is buying jaguar...

relative ratings of India and Pakistan wrt to providing favorable conditions for private investment


providing favorable conditions means squat..it means you need to fill out one less form in pakiland..

no amount of cherrypicking data will change the fact that pakiland has no company like the tatas, reliance, infosys etc etc...OTOH, the AQ HQ is in pakiland...

those of us sitting in pakistan


geographical proximity doesn't automatically translate into brilliant insights...

I can tell you the situation in iraq is bad even though I've never in Iraq proper.

When you told us to wear t-shirts with paki flags, you were living in the US...

voiced by the likes of US President George W Bush and secretary of state Condoleezza Rice — is that the Chinese and Indians are responsible.


fucking morons...that's not what he said..he actually paid them a complement by saying their spectacular development has strained resources...

hmmmm, if you had stuck to your bible (King James? Revised?) you might have stopped asking who the "chosen people" are, no?


yes..that was the point...IF I had stuck to the bible, I would know who the chosen people are..
The bible says one thing and naqshabandi says another thing(and there's prophetboy who says there are no chosen people)...

so how do I reconcile all that...who do I break the news to that they're not going to heaven and are going to be eaten by maggots..probably relished more..

sorry prophetboy: I'm not one to play your game of fetch..the one you play when you've been proven to be dishonest

you've shown your dishonesty by claiming that muslims strive for the separation of church and state when I've clearly pointed you to numerous examples that say otherwise

btw i have never heard of "separate footbaths" being a muslim issue in the US


of course you haven't...I'm sure you haven't heard of the following things either..

25% of young muslim americans think suicide bombing is justified.
you haven't heard of footbaths for muslim payers being built at taxpayers expense(you do understand the fact that taxpayer $$ makes it something associated with the state, don't you?)

and you have a strange way of interpreting the demands for footbaths, refusal to carry passengers who have alcohol in their luggage and separate gym time for hijabans as a demand for seperation of the state and religion...

what about the canuckistani muslims demanding sharia? just for laught, how're you going to spin that?

so what's the bottom line? who're the chosen people? whose bubble do I need to burst by telling them they're not, in fact, chosen..and are going to be eaten by maggots after they die...
