We should tell china that we had already complied enough, remember Lal Masjid? 100's of innocent young women & children were massacred for keeping china happy even though the Chinese women do immoral activities in the name of massage parlours. On top of it, 1000's of innocent uighurs Muslims are being massacred in china & they have the guts to warn us.

China needs Pakistan as much as we need them. We buy their junk war planes which even their air force won't buy.they need us as a counter balance to India. They need afghan resources.

We should warn them now
