The people here may have Muslim names and call themselves Muslims. But they are Hindu at heart. We are now sorting them out... Those who are left will be real Muslims."

Ninety thousand Pakistani soldiers and civilians became prisoners of war—they remained in India until 1973—and Pakistan lost its most populous province. Defeat shocked many West Pakistanis, who had come to believe that one brave Muslim soldier equalled ten Hindu ones. From then on, shame and humiliation drove Pakistan’s military and intelligence establishment to seek “strategic depth” in Afghanistan and a policy of “death by a thousand cuts” in Indian-ruled Kashmir. " So, it's this humiliation that is behind the rage that Pakistan has towards India (=Hindus).

China Pak Bhaii Bhai


I wonder what India conceded to China for this change in stance from China. Perhaps something to do with Doklam? China is very close to Pakistan and is building a train line from Gilgit to a port near Karachi near Afghan border.

A Chinese scholar apparently is perplexed with his government's reaction. He believes that Chinese - Pak relations may be strained as per http://www.financialexpress.com/world-news/brics-declaration-on-terror-may-strain-china-pakistan-ties-says-chinese-scholar/841084/

Non Muslim Population In The Islamic World



Trend shows something?

Today a friend of mine was telling me about a Pakistani who, she said, was a Gujarati and apparently speaks very good Gujarati. And he is a Muslim. Can non Muslims survive in Pakistan?
