topic is very very serious,dry and boring,but plz do come and discuss it.quake has come and gone but its aftershocks will keep us shaking for very long and not only in terms of tremors but also in terms of our strategic interersts in the region.there is a debate going on in the informed circles of pindi isb.that perhaps hum log kashmir se to almost hath dho bethay hain.america always wanted to keep its hold on kashmir due to its geo-strategic importance.and now our master and commander is very much present here in the garb of relief work.interestingly,all other freindly states r sending thier aid in the form of cash,kind or tech.assistance.but u.s is sending all its aid in the form of military logistics,troops and choppers.our viceroy,the embassador of u.s says that u.s army would stay here as long as it seems necessary,which almost means, for good.furthermore,our old friend china and our old rival india both r very apprehensive abt deployment of u.s.troops on their borders.so it all is a very complicated situation.i have a couple of friends in print media and they tell strange theories abt what is going to happen in next couple of years in pakistan.kashmir issue it seems is almost resolved but not in the way ppl of pakistan would like it to.some even say that our nuclear arsenal is also at stake since some of the choppers that u.s is using in relif work r equipped with very sensitive monitoring and surveilance gadgets.plus our much touted forex reserves r drying up rapidly.its certanly not a very osy picture at all.the question is,is our gov.capable of tackling so much complicated issues?
