as for reasonable, I base it on his analysis of internal dynamics in Pakistan, which I find to be more or less true.

However bad the state of Pakistan is, it does not justify foreign aggression. Foreign aggression is against the nation, not the state. A good number of people running the show in Pakistan are very much in bed with those who are launching the deadly missile into Pakistan.

[IranBaastaan]

The Pakistani official sounds pretty reasonable.

I wonder why the Pakistani people are putting up with the overt american aggression against their country.

Its simple & clear, no one is against Pakistan, Pakistan has no enemies, no wait, Pakistan is its own enemy, Pakis have always had stupid policies which backfired, pakistan is traped in its own foolish game, they foolishly tried to interffere in the internal affairs of a historic and great nation like Afghanistan, They negativly coment about India and Iran, They openly support the Taliban and Al Qayeda, all evidence of Pakistan traped in its own foolish game, Hamid Gull is still in real power

Thanks for the note. The way I see, the West is trying to occupy, control, and plunder where it can, and create enemity between the peoples, where it cannot. I can't see how someone from the general neighborhood would support the outside encroachment.

hey iran baastaan....ignore him...these are fucking indian hindus....gul is well respected person in pakistan

[IranBaastaan]

Pakistan is a major contributor to the creation, organization, and up keep of taliban. I Bedides, taliban whether Afghan or Pakistani, are pretty much the same nation, or in short, taliban are not foreign to Pakistan.

Foreign aggression. Does that include that of the Taliban? Remember much of that activity is from across the border.

[Tvdhakla]

IranBastaan asked "I wonder why the Pakistani people are putting up with the overt american aggression against their country."

Because they know that the state of Pakistan is failing them.

[Tvdhakla]

Gul? Reasonable? He's not . Have a read and see what you dig up about him.

[Tvdhakla]

Is Gul still on that list of terrorists that the USA sent to the UN?
