Agree. Zardari is a statesman.

Mahatma Gandhi
Mahatma Gandhi, as you know, walked barefoot most of the time, which produced an impressive set of calluses on his feet.

He also ate very little, which made him rather frail and with his odd diet, he suffered from bad breath.

All of these attributes made him.....

A super callused fragile mystic hexed by halitosis.

RiazHaq #436 Those are the Indian super-anti-anti-missiles, that you mention. You are right that they work by stinking up the place so badly that humans and other animals are instantly turned into pillars of salt, and plants, even blades of grass, shrivel up and die. However, fortunately for us dumb pakis, those are at the testing stage only. One version of this Indian Super-anti-anti-missile, for example has the code name of AlephNull. It is being tested on chowk nowadays, and its hotair blasts are considered to achieve temperatures higher than the surface of the sun.

#443 dude40000...at least ZARDARI was not half naked and skinny lookin like Gandhi and answered many questions with confidence and had statesmanship personality.

The most disquieting aspect of the widespread corruption in India is the fact that it is not anymore confined to politicians or the government machinery alone. It is prevalent amongst almost every section of the society at every level in India. The study of world phenomenon on corruption has repeatedly branded India as one of the most corrupt countries in the world. Unfortunately, this view has not disturbed most of the Indians at all and they do not seem to care as to what others think of them; so long as the existing systems and practices would allow them to make money and get things done in one way or the other. It does not shock Indians anymore to know that not only the politicians, ministers and IAS & IPS officers are corrupt but even the judges, professors, doctors and NGO organisations are.

Guys - You have to watch this if you missed it on TV earlier. So, what was your favorite moment? Mine was when Zardari repeats at least 10 times - I need , I need , I need in various shows. Hilarious.

RiazHaq #432

{{This stuff doesn't work, even in the faces of just a few missiles. If you go beyond a few, it's a miserable failure. The Israelis have fooled you}}

It's worked well in every test so far (three and counting). The current radars are Israeli but the interceptor missiles and the target-discrimination software are Indian and completely in India's power to develop further.

{{money that could have been better spent on feeding your hungry millions, clothing your multitudes of poor, building some toilets you desperately need, fixing your mostly pot-holed roads and big slummy cities.}}

India's missile defence programs are an excellent investment for the pittance spent on them. They are very bad news for Pakistan - they hold out the potential of emasculating your nuclear sabre-rattling.

In any case, it's the prerogative of India's democratically elected government to decide how to allocate money. Unlike Pakistan, India doesn't live on charity from the US and baksheesh from the Saudis. Don't worry your silly little head about how India's money is spent.

Of the 160 developing nations facing capital flight through illicit channels, India is placed fifth. in india ,Many political parties have made the return of black money into an election plank. If indian politicians paid their income taxes, India would have had enough money to fund all development projects and take care of millions of homeless in india.

{{I understand there is an Indian anti-anti-missile also in production!!}}

Chacha, no need to go overboard and die of resentful envy. They're anti-missiles, not anti-anti-missiles.

It's a two-layered missile defence system, and still in development but with three successful intercepts in three tests to date. It's equivalent to aiming at a speeding bullet and hitting it with another bullet.

{{This highly advanced and precise Indian anti-anti-missile is powered by cow-patties (where India is the world leader). It works by displaying a picture of an Indian IT programmer with a red dot on his head shapeaking in thee amrikan engleesh slang like arjun, and this scares the daylights out of the incoming missile as soon as it comes within range.}}

Chacha, it's nothing so exotic. Just mundane stuff like signal processing - the kind of boring engineering that Indian techno-idiots excel in and Pakistanis can't be bothered with.

RiazHaq: I understand there is an Indian anti-anti-missile also in production!! This puts it not one step, but two steps ahead of Pakistan which only has missiles (and even these, as everyone except us dumb pakis know, are fake anyway and armed with fake nukes)!!

This highly advanced and precise Indian anti-anti-missile is powered by cow-patties (where India is the world leader). It works by displaying a picture of an Indian IT programmer with a red dot on his head shapeaking in thee amrikan engleesh slang like arjun, and this scares the daylights out of the incoming missile as soon as it comes within range. The incoming gets so scared, it goes off the correct flight path, and instead runs away crying and calling out for its mama. It is all very scientific.

Dumb pakis, who possess only fake missiles armed with fake nukes, can only watch in amazement at these feats of hindu science.

Re: # 421

Don't worry about Indian and Pakistani gene pool. Tens of millions in the South Asian global diaspora will still be more than many other nations put together.
