  1. India has lost control in Afghanistan but the Zionist want the RSS to destabilize Pakistan but that has FAILED. Russia is Pakistan's friend and Putin is a master chess Player, India do not get fooled by America Pakistan learnt that lesson from 1979!

  2. He is absolute right. India is the biggest ever threat to Pakistan. India is the one who took part in breaking Pakistan.We should never forget it. Peace is very important but not at the cost of our freedom. Never forget what Moozi said while his visit to Bangladesh and remember this kind of poison can repeat in future too. We should be well prepare ourselves never let it happen again.

  3. When army is fighting wars on many fronts with India, Nawaz Sheriff is inviting Modi to Pakistan for SAARC Summit. This trade relations with India will be a major threat to the Integrity of Pakistan. It is better either Pakistan come out of SAARC or if possible expel India from SAARC with the support of other countries like Srilanka, Bangladesh and Nepal who are equally unhappy and weary with India.

  4. Look at the History and see who has initiated aggression against India from 1947 onwards, The breakup of Pakistan was inevitable the cause was West pakistan not India. So please wake-up and look at the possibilities rather dwelling in past. If Pakistan has good intentions it can sign a no-war pact with its neighbors get rid of the so-called 'good terrorist' and stop them or better yet eliminate them from your soil and the world can live in peace!

  5. Mr. Sartaj Aziz is right to some extent….But not only India, but even the terrorists hiding in Afghanistan are a threat to Pakistan….An India inside Afghanistan is also a threat to Pakistan….even the Afghan government and Afghan state departments are a threat to Pakistan….Pakistan should increase its conventional power to counter both the terrorists.
