ASK nothing personal, just my thoughts on the above
I would'nt give it a second thought, it is just another report by another US Think Tank, tinkering their obvious and non obvious interests. I am not denying the fact that we do not have our share of problems and issues,, which any third world country has.. but I refuse to actually make any sense of this report where we are bunched alond with the likes of Ivory coast and Sudan !! Nigeria which went on a major ethnic mahem just last year is better placed than us ??? what about Columbia and places like Ethiopia !! and Afghanistan is one place up (Where the writ of the govt. ends with the boundary of Kabul), Sieral Leonne is 17, a country that has been in civil war ever since it came into being.. its got UN Troops to help it function,, of all Pakistani troops; Nepal is at 20.. yet the Royal house of Nepal is on its knees with the Maoist Rebels,.. the whole contry is in rebellious fit, I could go o but give me a break.
I am not being overtly patriotic but lets just be reasonable... just because an earthquake hits us we are down 23 places !!
How would India fair then, with insurgencies in Kashmir, Nagaland, Bihar and another three places.. How about Spain with the ETA ?? How about the US with this looming threat of terrorism !!
Think tanks such as these have been calling us a failed state since day one !! and this is the first time I have heard its name. I guess the first one to do that was none other than Nehru.. but we are here for 60 plus years and we do have achievements and Inshallah we will be here for times to come.
Pakistan Forever !!
