Pakistan is Cat on the wall..\nIt has a desire to develop its country to hi fi with the help of US \nBut also need to manage those old islam culture and big shots of some groups who operating most Madderassas..\nAnd most maderassas already became a b-school for some terror organisations...\n\nWith this kind of people, its very difficult to grow..\nEither follow US or your own Maderassas..\n\nBut i pity about people of pakistan..\nthey r the people suffering economically with each decision of the dictatorship..\n\nif they can reduce the tension in indian border areas by controlling terror groups.. they can save a lump sum on defence expenses and can use it for development purposes...\n\nbut certainly Pakistan is not a terrorist country..\n\nA country which is not able to pick among choices...

The vast majority of countries are not targeted by terrorist organisations.  The best source of information is the World Factbook.  Please see the link below.

1. Pakistan and India were one country\n2. When the British occupation started withdrawing from the area, Muslim and Hindu leader agreed to split in grounds of who lives where, the area's with Muslim majority will be part of the new established Pakistan, and the other area's will remain parts of India, the thing with Kashmir that the people where Muslims, but the Maharaja rolling this area were Hindu... and that's how it all started\n\nWhat I thing: India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, and Afghanistan should be united as one federal country as here (USA)

Terrorism is only terrorism, which ever side you remain. Killings  innocents in World Trade Center, At London Railway stations or in Delhi crowded Markets are always terrorism which ever side you are. F-16  are bombing remote villages because terrorist are hiding there.

Coz American government is stupid!!!! Pakistan is the biggest menace to the world, not Osama. Pakistan along with Taliban trains the terrorists who attack all over the world.\n\nPakistan should be wiped off the map.

Terrorism can utilized as an alternative method of bargaining or expressing hopelessness about the conditions of life. Terrorist leaders see terrorist groups as a business or organization with specific purposes (political, religious, or economic). On a personal level many of the terrorist recruits fall back upon terrorism because they have no other options (ie to achieve their goals, ambitions, or simply to provide for their families), as a result of unemployment, oppression, or lack of legitimate role models. Terrorism can, in the eyes of the oppressed, also express feelings of humiliation, (ex. The Middle East being trampled on by European and American interests). Never forget that terrorism is defined by those in power, and that technically Nelson Mandela and other members of the ANC were terrorists. They achieved their goals of freedom and democratic participation for all South Africans.

It seems as if Pakistan is definitely vague, in true terms, as far as it's stand on Afghanistan is concerned. yes, it seems to be playing a two sided role with Afghanistan, but then again that's POLITICS isn't it?\n\ni feel both are dangerous up to some extent. Pakistan may be more though. Osama quite possibly is in Pakistan...

Pakistan has been an active member in the ABSG <Against ‘Buttercup’ Society of Giraffes> the CENTO <Creepy Egocentric Narcissus Tope Organization> and the Southeast Asia Treaty Organization (SEATO). Pakistan is also an important member of the Organization of the Islamic Conference (OIC) <other wise referred to as the Anti-South Park militia>. Pakistan has used the Anti-South Park militia as a forum for Enlightened Moderation [3], its plan to promote a take a rain check and elucidation in the Islamic world. Besides the Anti South Park militia, Pakistan is a member of the South Asian union of SAARC. The Economic Cooperation Organization (ECO) <also known as whoa daddy got some deep pockets> is another major regional organization seeking to promote socio-economic development. Pakistan's status as the only Islamic nation to be a declared nuclear power plays a significant role in international affairs.\n\nForeign relations with the United States have seen as a roller coaster <which has killed many> throughout the history of Pakistan. In the early 1950s, Pakistan's leaders called the country the United States "most allied ally in Asia"[4]. During the Soviet-Afghan war in the 1980s and following the September 11 attacks, Pakistan remained a crucial ally. However, between crises relations have soured with sanctions being applied by the United States, once during the 1965 war with India and again following Pakistan's nuclear tests in 1998.\n\nPakistan has had difficult relations with neighboring arch-rival India with the two countries fighting three wars <after the large migration of Irish Workers impregnated their women and introduced Pakisanians to green beer> and coming to the verge of a nuclear war <like we need more halaback girls right???> on other occasions. The long-running border dispute over Kashmir resulted in war in 1947 and 1965. A third war <we now introduce the Russian’s with their Vodka> was fought alongside the Bangladeshi Liberation War in 1971. India's decision to conduct nuclear tests in 1998 immediately prompted Pakistan to test its own.\n\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pakistan#Foreign_relations

Pakistan have its share of fools(fanatic people) who brain washed by secret agencies to do these kind of terrorism.I believe that this blast is ordered by cia or raw.because to put pressure on our government and society.\nI know islamists that they are simple people.They d'nt teach bomb making in madrasas.so these terrorists are trained by some agencies, (like osama bin laden was trained by cia).The fact is an ordainary man can not get his hand on explosives that means this blast plan was well resoursed and well funded.

Terrorism is both an ideology and a tactic.  Their goals are wanting change.  It depends on what terrorist organization you are talking about.  Most in South America their goals were to overthrow the current government.  And terrorism was their tactic, guerilla warfare.  In the Middle East it is more of an ideology, they are claiming their religion wants them to do this, hence they call it a Jihad.  But it is also a tactic because they use terrorism to try and achieve their goals, which is to get rid of all infidels, which are us, non-Muslims.

Razi, I hope you get some thoughtful, educated answers to your question. I only have a limited knowledge of the MMA b/c of my Comparative Politics class last semester. I think the MMA is at the heart of the existance of Pakistani politics? Wasn't the succession of Pakistan due to the MMA and other muslim groups that supported Jinnah's muslim nation? If I'm right, the survival of the MMA is dependent upon Mushariff's willingness to step down from his self imposed presidency and allow the government true control. Is this the MMA you are referring to?

I don't think there is a simple answer to that one. With the exception of maybe Iran, the regimes you mention are against terrorism. Not that there aren't elements within their governments that support them. Overall terrorists are a major threat to these countries regimes. Jordan, Egypt, and Saudi Arabia deal rather harshly with terrorists. The threat would be nukes getting into the wrong hands.

Having Nuclear Weapons is a very large responsibility and are primarily used as a deterrent.  If your country isn't stable, isn't secure and can't defend it's nuclear stockpiles then it makes it dangerous for the rest of the world for your country to have nuclear weapons.  Because of the likelihood that terrorist groups looking to get their hands on a nuclear weapon would see your country as easy pickings.

Oh, come on, take three guesses.  What do you think?\n\nIt is essentially for the same reason that we don't typically permit immigration from countries where we are at war.  There is a lot more incentive in the populace to do us harm.  With Pakistan, where we have both friends and enemies, they just have to be careful.\n\nHowever, immigration to the United States is difficult from anywhere.  We, like all countries, have limits on how much immigration we can accept, and we have so many illegal aliens coming across our southern border that it impacts immigration for everyone else.
