@Pandit Kutta: I'd like to hear your definition of victory. I'm sure dictionary publishers will want to be sure and make the correct edits afterwards, too.
@shahid: and what is goin in afghanistan. USA + 56 countries based NATO also defeated
Guys, this is a war between Taliban and anti-Taliban militias. Why do we expect Taliban to not fight?
@shahid: Agree with your comments. It is a self-inflicted defeat and at the moment can be called as a total rout. It is difficult to figure out the reason behind this debacle which the military can only explain.
another sad event for Pakistan :(
@shahid: Our army has never won any war in history. Why are you surprised? Now they've brainwashed people to ask for peace with these beasts too.
And TTP claims that they want to have peace talk?? What do you say Jamaat-e-Islami, Fazalur Rehman etc? You also should be part of operation agains TTP.
May God Bless him for laying down his life fighting against forces of darness and destruction. May the curse be upon the terrorists.
We will continue to be on recieving end until the army attacks and eliminates thier den in Noth Waziristan. As henry Kissenger said in gorilla warfere if the conventional army is unable to wipe out the terrorists bases it is thier defeat and if the gorillas are just able to continue thier warfare it is thier victory. Has Pakistan army already accepted thier defeat ??. If so they should say so
In the so many years of independence, we still haven't any mechanism to monitor who are entering and leaving our cities. Technology is easily available for doing this, heck you can give it out to as a final year project to students if you want to get it done for free! But the problem in Pakistan is that of implementation, and no one wants to implement any system unless there is a khaancha involved for himself.
