I don't understand: The video description lists the date of the interivew as 11/2008, but the upload date is October 30, 2008. Confusing. ~:-0

He s quite true but the cynics and ealots will hate him for this.

[you777777777777]

in fact brainwashing of gullible has been so strong the brainwashed now see nothing else than hatred for other religions n cultures. zia introduced tat for his motives. 25 years hence, still true with deadly results for ur country.

[you777777777777]

these are kind of people who can take ur country where it belongs. as an outsider(indian) who follows pak closely i say no bibi no nawaz no shujaat no army chief can salvage it. the mindset of the masses needs to be awakened. wahabi nonsense maybe the saudis like but pakistanis should politely thank them n refuse to accept it. tats for 1

[ollieraza]

I wish brainwashed Pakis will listen to the voice of reason... Muslim identity is a hoax.. we are better off looking at ourselves as Progressive, liberal Pakistanis instead of thinking of us as slaves of Saudi Wahabi regime.

[asteriskreq]

pakistan is not a great nation, who ever believes that is living a lie. pakistanis are sooo narrow minded that they dont realize how they are being f**kd every day for the past 50yrs. what pakistan needs is a future, option: have a 100 tariq alis; line up all the current politicians and corrupt leaders and shoot them all, and have them replaced by tariq alis. now that would be a start

[mudasar2006]

pakistan a great nation inshallah we w'll prove that:

[htgajjar]

Pakistan has always been a failed Islamic Terrorist State full of Taliban and other Islamic Terrorists.

[tooharsh]

although i abs.agree with his diagnosis

[tooharsh]

typical lost in books person! All nations were created at some point in time..now its 60 yrs so this debate is becoming irrelevant..as far as structure , it can be fixed..create 6 provinces with no ethnicity gain overwhelming majority!

[skshinwari]

Some of the points agree with Tariq, The Militro Polito Elites very well. for rest he is very much inspired to West, knowingly uses very soft words to Western Masters and deliberate soft corner to India. Never speak abt the indian sufferer minorities by Hindo elites (Filmo, Milito, polito).

[Isrek1]

Excellent interview. Tariq Ali gives us a good synopsis on the latest situation in Pakistan. I ordered the book.

[statickk14]

Real tragedy is that Tariq Ali fails to see how Islam plays a significant role in bringing where Pakistan is today.

[azisurfer]

wat u mean by ..ISLAM has brought where pakistan is today .. WAT ABT SAUDI , WAT ABT UAE ,...THE RICHEST NATION IN THE WORLD i think they FOLLOW THE SAME RELIGION ... ya how abt ALCHEMIST , ALGEBRA .

[temptation4life]

Try bringing Oil and South Asian Slave labour out of that equation - Islam leans towards capitalism and present no economic system of its own. Confused? I don't blame you

[statickk14]

I didn't say Islam is the sole reason, I said it plays a significant role. Saudi maybe be rich in oil money but that is an intellectually bankrupt nation.

[azisurfer]

ya right intelectually bank rupt ..wat u mean by that .. u know wat ..ur sayin some thing coz u just wana say .. thats all.. u have no idea .. wat abt ALCHEMISTS WHEN EUROPEANS WERE choppin each other ..ALCHEMISTS WERE doing experiments ..werent they moslems

[abcw828]

As an investment professional, I would disagree with you. Saudi may have a conservative social order but its investment & development policies are some of the most enlightened in the world...ne1 working in private equity in the Middle East will tell you that

[srini1708]

pak was created in the name of islam. where as SaudiArabia though may be a muslim country, it is not based on it. It is basically a kingdom forming the territory which is ruled by the Al-Saud family...hence called Saudi Arabia
