Pakistan ki dramebaaji

I may be borrowing this line from a Bond flick but it is apt for the current situation "Government's change but lies don't". The constant denial and bickering from the other side of the border has baffled me. Either they are as dumb as an ass or they are afraid to death of an Indian attack. The continuous effort of the Pakistani establishment to create a war hysteria havent helped anyone.

No legal aid to Ajmal unless citizenship proved: Pakistan

We will defend Pakistan till last drop of our blood: Zardari

Pak to India: Don't blame us for your failures

Pak capable of thwarting aggression from the east: Zardari

Pak ready to respond "within minutes" if India strikes, says Army chief

Whom are they trying to fool. It is a well established fact that the Indian military might is superior to Pakistan. A nuclear war is the only factor that has prevented an Indian strike on POK. And regarding Pakistan's ability to fight all its misadventure in the past have ended in disgrace for them.

It is time Pakistan recognizes its failures and looks into its own backyard before daring to attack someone else. The time is not too far when the line between Pakistan and Taliban will vanish. The economy is on the verge of collapse its security forces are loosing ground in the tribal areas. The SWAT valley which was once home to Pakistan's only ski resort and boasted of the finest schools of all over Pakistan has been converted to a battle zone between Taliban and Pakistani security forces. Taliban has destoyed around 250 schools and banned girls from attending schools. The situation is so worse that security forces have agreed to withdraw troops and implement Islamic law in order to stop rebel attacks.

The condition is grave even from Indian point of view. Can we afford to have Taliban as neighbours??

What was that all about??

Had AR Antulay gone mad? What was he thinking when he made that statement about ATS chief Karkare being a victim of Hindu terror and not something else. Is cheap publicity most prestigious nowadays? He even went on saying that he has no regrets and the Congress Party and the Govt. should thank him. What the f*** for?? For getting some cheap votes and destroying the support that the useless govt was getting after 26/11.

After the numerous statements given by Mumbai Police, several media reports and Kasab's interrogation it was clear that ATS chief and other two Top cops were simply handed a cruel fate by God. They were just going to Cama Hospital to inquire about their colleague who had been injured in the shooting there. It was just unfortunate that the same terrorists were hiding nearby.

Such stunts on part of Congress that too by a Union Minister would fetch only bad publicity. If the Congress thinks that by saving Delhi and capturing Rajasthan, terrorism is not an issue it surely is mistaken. If the NDA does not repeat what it did in Delhi and fields some good candidates then no one can stop this govt. from being voted out of power.

I am not sure what Mr. Antulay achieved but the opposition sure got a chance to vent its anger against the govt.

My take on Assassin's Creed

This game was probably the best that i have ever played. The climbing on buildings, riding a horse, fighting with swords, jumping around balconies and most of all i loved the secret blade to perform the stealth kills. The most interesting feature was the leap of faith, climbing on a tall building or tower then letting yourself fall down freely into a hay stack... it was simply superb.

The storyline was equally good. A previous assassin captured and slaved for a scientific experiment. A revelation that the human brain holds not only your memory but also your ancestors. The machine to take you back into time. The several kills to perform and the exceedingly difficult last mission these all make it a great game.

The meticulous planning that every kill required was interesting to note. You had to search around the city for eavesdropping, pick pocketing, interrogation, climbing view points, saving citizens all just to get a little bit of information and for making vigilantes who would help when you are in trouble.

There are small tasks given by fellow assassin's who are unable to fulfill their missions and ask your help in return for valuable information. That included stealth kills, collecting flags, etc.

I also loved riding horses through the countryside when traveling between cities. The horse ride was the most realistic i have ever seen in many games.

But the best part was sword fighting. You are taught certain tricks which increase your skill gradually. You can practice a fight and even a particular technique. At last you are taught how to take on 10 to 15 men at a single time. It was really awesome.

The professor in the end said "Do not get relaxed Mr. Miles, we will be back soon". Well whenever they come back they will surely find me waiting.

It's Development my boy!!!

The recent elections touted by many as semi final to the general elections 09 have thrown out a unanimous result. Not in the sense of a party but in the sense of poll issues. Madhya Pradesh and Chattisgarh where the BJP chief ministers concentrated on development and issues related to public welfare instead of any terror or hindutva agenda were able to beat the anti incumbency factor and retain their power. Rajasthan was a complete mess by Vasundhara Raje and Delhi by BJP's high command. These states were going BJP's way all along but the party just ran out of leaders and sent some important ones fuming away. The rebels in BJP's fort caused too much of a damage for Raje too handle. And on the other hand Sheila Dixit's development was just good enough to defeat BJP's outdated leaders. Infact i think the Metro's success just overshadowed the mess created by the Bus corridor.

In all the public favored stability. Inspite of claims mayawati may make about improved vote share people voted for a stable goverment not allowing some small parties to bully the government by virtue of 1 or 2 seats. Rajasthan ofcourse being an exception but in my defence it was already messed up.
