Friend, his rhetoric is only that: rhetoric. Obviously, victory will require a combination of tactics which is what everyone is saying. But Imran Khan is not even taking the first step. He is not giving anything practical either. He is just dissembling and confusing the issue, which is the point...

There is a debate going on in regard to a statement made by Imran Khan on the 16th of October: ‘We have local affiliates and supporters. Sure, I can give big statements against the Taliban but that would make them Taliban targets.’ Imran Khan evidently thinks the security of his...

Pakistan This analysis is flawed. There are three possible scenarios developing after the US/NATO withdrawal. 1) The Afghan government and security services not only stay intact but are able to retain control over previously held Pashtun areas of Afghanistan despite an active Taliban...

To all those whose posts I've deleted, stay on topic and keep the quality of the discourse high. Attack his arguments, not him.

Don't think hes going to reply to this, and I couldn't be bothered to edit it. Thought I'd just post it here. Dear Mr. Paracha, I was very enthused by your article regarding the Pakistan Army’s proliferation of extremism in Pakistani society. It was an interesting and well formulated...

The discourse in this thread has been very disappointing so far. Refrain from personal attacks or rants, I won't say this again. Everyone needs to take a step back and calm down. The Indian foreign secretary made a statement and it is our job as educated Pakistanis to address it...

I am sorry but there is very little I can help you with. I didn't make it in myself, and GDP is very tough. I wish you the best, try your best. Be calm and collected and confident, and remember this is not the end of the world. InshAllah you will get in.

Its all good. I miss having the time to post as well. Hope you're well.

Welcome aboard Marc :D

DAWN.COM | Columnists | Keeping the army in check I felt like probing this piece for rhetorical purposes. I suppose its a common theme pushed by many 'liberal' elements in our society. There are some very potent and appropriate points too though that go some way to moderate his criticism with...
