The US is making Al-Qaeda presence in Pakistan to target it by Asif Haroon Raja
Posted By: Asif_Haroon_Raja Created On: 5/Feb/2011 Views: 2153 Replies: 0 
In his last address to State of Union in USA, Obama appeared to be in an upbeat mood. He started his talk by giving an optimistic picture of Afghanistan saying that Al-Qaeda’s presence in Afghanistan and border belt of Pak-Afghan border has significantly shrunk; for the first time it is under tremendous pressure; its members and leaders are on the run. He glowered that ‘we have given a clear cut m Click here to read Full Article

The US has preferred repressive leaders over popular leaders by Asif Haroon Raja

War on terror in Afghanistan and in Pakistan is raging with full intensity for well over nine years and still there is no light seen at the end of the tunnel. The US which had triggered this war in October 2001 doesn’t know when and how the war would come to an end. Not even a single declared objective set for Afghanistan been accomplished. The US and its strategic allies have kept everyone so hec Click here to read Full Article
Kashmir has become a dangerous nuclear flashpoint by Asif Haroon Raja

Sixty three years have lapsed but Kashmir dispute remains unresolved. During this period, besides several military standoffs, two full fledged Indo-Pak wars and two localised conflicts in April 1965 and in summer of 1999 took place on account of Kashmir issue. India has been defying UN Resolutions on Kashmir and playing monkey tricks all these years to avoid resolving the dispute. Indian security Click here to read Full Article
 
The US desire to make India a bulwark against China by Asif Haroon Raja
Posted By: Asif_Haroon_Raja On: 27/Jan/2011 Views:1879 Replies:1 
The US dream of converting India into an effective bulwark against China had been perceived sometime in the late 1990s when India had got itself fully aligned with USA after the demise of its earlier patron USSR. No other country in Asia was prepared to undertake this role since none have the military capability to do so. Moreover, China’s foreign policy is peaceful and its military strategy is Click here to read Full Article
America’s desire to play a great game in Afghanistan by Asif Haroon Raja
Posted By: Asif_Haroon_Raja On: 23/Jan/2011 Views:1839 Replies:0 
War on terror has entered tenth year but the US is still clueless when and how it will terminate the war. One of the reasons for its lack of progress is that in its given set of priorities, Afghanistan was accorded lower priority since it was considered an almost accomplished affair. Another reason for prevalent confusion is that rather than keeping its allies friendly and regional countries frien Click here to read Full Article
 
The US Must Solve Kashmir Tangle Before Departure by Asif Haroon Raja
Posted By: Asif_Haroon_Raja On: 21/Jan/2011 Views:2053 Replies:1 
Soon after occupying Afghanistan in end 2001, the US instead of putting things in order in the occupied country started wasting its energies on Pakistan and kept nudging it roughly to do more against foreign militants and those providing them shelter in the northwestern tribal belt of Pakistan. It kept its gaze fixed on Pakistan only and held it responsible for providing safe sanctuaries and allow Click here to read Full Article
Review Of War On Terror In December 2010 by Asif Haroon Raja

The Republicans under George W Bush had taken the credit of stabilizing Iraq and gradually handing over provinces in Iraq to Iraqi forces. Gen David Petraeus and Gen Stanley McChrystal were pronounced as heroes. Claims made and acclaims received were far from truth since Iraq is still as volatile as it was in earlier years of its occupation. Obama riding over the crest of popular votes also though Click here to read Full Article
 
Sharpening secular-Islamic divide in Pakistan by Asif Haroon Raja
Posted By: Asif_Haroon_Raja On: 14/Jan/2011 Views:2235 Replies:1 
Out of six billion and 90 crore world population, one billion and 57 crore are Muslims. Every sixth person in the world is Muslim. There are 57 Muslim countries on world map and Muslim population is one billion fifty seven crores. 52 Muslim countries are secular while Sharia is practiced in Saudi Arabia, Sudan, Iran, Nigeria and Afghanistan (at least till October 2001 under Taliban). Iraq also had Click here to read Full Article
Errors made by USA in Afghanistan by Asif Haroon Raja
Posted By: Asif_Haroon_Raja On: 8/Jan/2011 Views:2199 Replies:1 
With the kind of extraordinary troop buildup and array of destructive weapons amassed for Operation Enduring Freedom in September 2001, and taking into account negligible defensive capability available with the Taliban, the outcome was a foregone conclusion. While US led coalition forces succeeded in toppling and pushing out Taliban regime in one month time, very little work was done during holdin Click here to read Full Article
 
India’s military leaders are far detached from reality by Asif Haroon Raja

The Brahman Hindu of today wishes to re-establish the ancient grandeur of the old order in the light of which he basks for he is a child of that culture. The Hindus contemptuously dismiss historic factuality and instead cling to self created myths and legends. The nostalgia for a mythical past acts as a distorting mirror. They strongly believe that Mahabharata extended over an area from including Click here to read Full Article
Rejoinder to Farooq Sulehria by Asif Haroon Raja
Posted By: Asif_Haroon_Raja On: 24/Dec/2010 Views:2509 Replies:1 
Articles of Farooq Sulehria appear occasionally in ‘The News’. He writes sensibly but at times his liberal bent of mind overtakes rationality and fair-mindedness. In his recent article titled ‘Swat video from Sudan’, which appeared in the News on 23 December, he has forcefully condemned lashing incident in Sudan and has also replayed the Swat video of lashing incident in early 2009. He is feeling Click here to read Full Article
