Anyways, I don't want to push my case too much. Will just say that some of my friends have started to call me a "Pakistani" given the amount of time I spend on Pakistani websites and the interest I show in Pakistani affairs.
wow and you are Hindu. Just imagine some Indian muslim trying to make some points with same set of desis. By the way if you are accused by hardliner from both side of aisle then you must be doing good. That is why I love Gandhi.Hardcore fundamentalist on both side hate him..
Anyway coming back to topic at hand....... I totally agree with smoot_guy.. She is neither idiotic nor patriotic. She is simply greedy...

Reminds me also of T N Sheshan, India's highly regarded former Chief Election Commissioner. He once said - "All political parties hate me equally, so I must be impartial".

My dad was hanged.
My two brothers were killed.
My husband was imprisoned for a long time.
My husband and I have been hounded on corruption charges (Interpol issued an arrest alert last year against us). Even though Musharaff has dropped charges against me now, there is no knowing what the future holds for me.
And...last night I narrowly escaped being killed by a suicide bomber.
what does it mean by what is written in hindi in your signature?
best,
Dushwari
Okay...let's see....

Now....why on earth...would I still want to risk my life and peace of mind to try and become a Prime Minister in a political setup that can be best described as a "lunatic asylum", of a mostly "lawless" country.
I have 3 children.
I think I would just go back to Dubai/London and be there for my children, my husband and my family....and spend the rest of my life in relative peace and harmony.
Why would I put my hands in fire again, having burnt it several times before.
I cannot seem to fathom the motivation for doing so.
Conclusion : Either Benazir is genuinely patriotic OR she is an IDIOT.
Okay...so in your book....for an Indian to say that anything in Pakistan is BAD amounts to saying that the equivalent in India is GREAT.
I don't know what to tell you....except that I wish you knew me personally. I seem to be equally hated by my fellow Indians and by Pakistanis...so I figure I must have a neutral opinion on Indo-Pak issues.
Anyways, back to the topic.....I find it difficult to believe that Benazir (at the ripe age of 54) would be willing to go to such lengths to try and make dollars for herself....as insinuated by some people above (notable Captain1 Saab). I mean at this age, people generally reach the "self-actualization" level devoid of materialistic ambitions.
That's true, I can vouch for that :D; especially when it is about opinions on the indian cricket team.
She is not patriotic nor idiot. She has proved it over and over.
Its $1.7 Billion that is ceased by different governments and courts across the globe. The 5% she had with her for use must have been burnt out in last 8 years of lavish life style.
TOU AB KIYA BHOOKI MARE WOH? She has agreed to do the toughest job in the world to get access to her ceased money (made of corruption).
I was about to cry after all that news footages, bewaqoof aur ghareeb workers still don't understand her.
thats more like motivation of so called carer of gharib awam! May allah bless our awam and stay away from such leaders who prefer cushy life in the west and only come to rescue pak people when they are out of cash or need of more billions they actully help of this awam they help them how to spend any reserve left in national treasurey.

What think...you ?
I think the day she saw her dad's body she made a solemn pledge not to rest until she screws the whole country over and throws it in the Arabian sea. Nothing else explains it.
Really ? When ? Where ? I am hurt by this statement. I really would like to see that post of mine. :)
Obviously it got deleted, you probably asked for it to get deleted since it was there for a long time and all of a sudden got zapped, so dont give me that 'i dont remember' thingie... Even F&B and Asif_K saw it and they criticized you for saying that. Maybe you were drunk when you said that, in that case its ok... Truth sometimes comes out when youre under the influence.
Oh so the two love birds are here too....Some1 + F&B. I can pretty much say this thread is to make some feel better on the other side of the border. :)
^ honestly, why can't we have "Indians" talking about Pakistan affairs? Don't we (Pakistani guppies) discuss (trash) India, Indian politics, Indian society/culture in WA or General fora all the time?

I totally agree Captain but it should not be once in a while thread to feel better. I'd love to see them discuss instead of spicing up things and making it look like a joke.
For the bold part. Not all the time. I do that only in cricket and that too not all the time.
