Without TNT a Pakistani is no different from an Indian Muslim and there is no basis for the existence of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan.

Pakistan has geographic coherence and culturally only bleeds into India strongly in northern/central punjab. There is no danger of being reabsorbed, even if the TNT loses all credibility. Nepal, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka all have overlapping cultural zones with India, and with more hindus too, but they have robust, independent political identities.

It was really Patel who led the crackdown. At any rate, Savarkar, who I don’t particularly care for, was never a member of the RSS but the Hindu Mahasabha. Interestingly the latter was not banned.

People dissect and criticize Ram’s choices and example openly and have done so for a long time.

‘in Islam/Pakistan’

It was deeply offensive for you when people criticized pak fauj and Munir. Is criticizing Muhammed deeper-ly, more-deeper-ly or deepest-ly offensive?

Muhammed made up revelations … and was not even a good human being what to say of being an exemplar for all times …

RNJ pls also tone it down.

TNT is by definition based on religion based apartheid logic. You are free to worship it as whatever you see fit. Demanding that others ‘see it the way you do’ is….unrealistic.

Oh wow – I’m at Amethyst in Chennai right now.

“Mutual defence pact” is a euphemism for a mercenary rentier agreement.

Yes, that’s fine. So what does this treaty in fact entail? What are the granularities?

It’s pretty obvious what a mutual defense pact entails.

What’s in it for Pakistan if an attack on Pakistan isn’t going to be treated as an attack on the other partners?
