Pakistan to lend 700,000 acres farmland to Arab states

I didnt say I trust the govt blindly. If it turns out to be a mess, then I would agree with you. But this land isnt given way for pennies. No one in the govt is going to simply give away land leased or otherwise, for nothing in return.

I understand that people have reasons to be mistrusting of the govt, but some people go way out there, almost to the point of thinking up some grand conspiracy theories.. Its just land, and its just another invesment oppurtunity.

As for the Taliban, thats not something we can discuss here. Sufice it to say, the Pak govt had its reasons. And Pakistanis arent the first to support such groups.
