Yes… and that’s exactly what the Brits thought when they first saw Gandhi in his plane white drape..! but only in a few years, he had motivated enough people to kick them out for good.. and mind u.. the Brits were well settled inside our country for a good span of years.. STILL they got their asses wooped by a man who was more than his looks.. Besides, if u westerners could EVER venture beside the “looks”, then maybe u wouldn’t have lost a good Prez in Clinton, who was chucked for cozing up to a some Jewish babe, despite been married..

Might be.!!!!! Dear Sir Brits knew when to leave and how to leave India, they already had lots of ruling experience. There wasn’t a merical by Gandhi neither by Jinnah. They prepared both men to leave region disputed.

The standard of Pakistani intelligence agencies and army is shown by the fact that Osama was living near your Army training academy and they didn’t know. Moreover US came and killed Osama deep in your country and your military was caught napping.

We pakistanis are thankful to Gen. Raheel for saving Pakistan. I hope these steps continue as long term policy of Pakistan. Also, respect for India and Indian Army Chief at the same time. We should partner and live in peace as brothers.

let us not indulege in criticising personalities. All these are high ranked professionals. They do not even have time to read our comments. If we do just one thing i.e, play our positive part well towards world peace, it will be our gift to comming generations. However, we should not compromise on basis human rights of inividuals and countries.
- SShailendra
True but not everyone’s like you… appreciate your thoughts!
- Eehsan haq
Mostly, people are positive and peace loving. Generally negative minded so called leaders exploit their emotions and use them in the name of patriotism, religion and nationalism etc. Lack of education and resources concentration is the biggest enemy of both countries and many other countries.

Whats funny is that the Pakistan General can also be named as the Best “Head of the State”.. cz in Pakistan, the civilian government is only an eye candy for global events, all the policy decisions are taken by the military …. speaking of which, i am still unable to decipher what potent Weed did the Person who made this list Smoke before he DID make it!!

I can understand your burning bottom but really what is if any, achievement of indian army chief? The man does not even look like a soldier, rather a janitor. There’s no weed, it’s just your indian hate blinding you from accepting it.
- TTakeCh@rge_2.0
Really? Oh cm on u dillusional fool!!! The Gurkha rifles is one of the most elite part of the Indian armed forces.. the British Army STILL induct the brave Gurkhas for their valour and courage that is embedded in their blood.. Gen D.S Suhag was inducted in that to start with, He played a very important role in counter insurgency in kashmir vally that won him Vishist Seva medal, Then he made invaluable contribution during the kargil war to kick some rotten Pakistani A$$ , which won him Ati Vishist Seva Medal. . Later, he was posted in the Northeast, where unde his command, the NE insurgency was greatly reduced and many important Mao leaders were nabbed or taken on our side, winning him the Uttam Yudh Seva Medal. The Man has proved himself in not just india, but also abroad , being distinguishably addressed at the Senior Mission Leaders Course of the UN!! So, whether or not he may look lik

Your pahtet!c medals don’t mean garbage at any international level. Keep giving trophies to yourself for all it matters to yourself. The fact is your army was held up by its very ba//s by Pakistan and had 3 times more casualties and damage than pakistan. Even with PAF not taking part, your ariforce was losing its migs. Mr.Suhag wont tell you this. You ppl need brand names like gurkhas to feel some courage behind that cowardice of yours attacking school going kids. The second one being calling your dead soldiers “shaheeds”. How ironic. The religion you hate the most gives glory to your pahteti!c soldiers by your stealing a concept from it. The fact is, indian army is an army of cowards. The fact is british needed d0gs for their dirty work and they created gurkhas with fake pride. Pakistan hasn’t even started testing this janitor. But he is doing everything he can to interfere in pakistan

First of, ur very assumption that we “Hate Islam” is WRONG to start with.. Even though “saare jahan se acha” is neither Our National anthem Nor our National song, it is STILL SUNG with pride (it was written by Iqbal, just incase ur little hate filled brain didn’t catch that..) U should try reading the lyrics smtym.. Ul understand what I am trying to tell u , esp when the same song is sung everyday in almost every school.. U speak only what ur clerics teach you in ur madrasa schools or what u hear from ur Army mouthpiece media agencies. Now if I quote data to u, u will say “it data means Garbage to me” or smthing similarly pitiful.. Yet it doesn’t change the fact that there are MORE muslim killings in Pakistan than they are in India.. And that there are more Minority killings in Pakistan than there are in India. . our media is FREE from Govt control (in ur case army’s control), so any ski

spare me this bullsh!t of your cliched madrassa cheap line. that is all you indians are doing as a collective organism all day long , acting like l0w life cheaps. pakistanis are way more educated, decent, good looking, well mannered, and talented than you indians and any field of life proves this where you look up to pakistanis in your obsession. Yes you HATE pakistan and you hate pakistan for being muslims. you people have so much hate in your hearts that if pakistan was to give up all its military and weaponry, open its borders and welcome all out, you would not rest until you have spilled the bl00d of every pakistani. this is a fact. it simply does not matter what you believe. there maybe a a few neutral minded people in indian society but as a nation as a whole, you people are hateful and revengeful of pakistan. what matters is not what indian public thinks but what indian leaders ar

Ur apology is duly accepted. But my only regret is, that IF u HAD read the entire comment, u would have noticed that I did not for once blame the normal Pakistani populous for the angst or animosity that today exists BTW our two nations, nor did I once say ANYTHING against Muslims.. For I have nothing wrong to say against neither.. while u on the other hand went all guns blazing – generalising all Hindus in one category of hate .. This only shows ur own insecurity for the matter and not some ‘Hindu HATE’.. (My madrasa comment was based on the many reports that Islamic radicalists often propogate their agendas in madrasa’s, brain washing young kids – The Lal Mazjid incident, amongst various others was published by ur media only, wasn’t it?) As for YOU knowing all about MY DNA, I am surprised that if thqt indeed had been the case, how could U would level ME with the hate spewers against wh
- Jjigsaww
Like i said, you are not the policy maker. It simply does not matter what you say. Your leaders are the policy makers, whose policies towards Pakistan are extremely hostile and based on hate as well as revenge. Pakistan has people like Ajit Doval and Modi to deal with, who are on record accepting funding a terrorist proxy war in Pakistan. Your nation has drooped down to the level of taking the war into schools and nurseries to spill blood of innocent children. India, Pakistan must remember will never ever give up in its pakistan hate and will go to all extents to damage it. You may or may not be a good person, but at the end of the day you stand against Pakistan, not with it, and therefore whatever you stand for it in support of the indian war of hate against Pakistan. I spend enough time with reading indian mindset about pakistan, and their long term policies and past about Pakistan. In

since u present NO hope whatsoever in ur own words, i shant waste my time replying to u. Fact remains that it is proved that Gen Shareef, simply by the lack of ur knowledge or want Doesnt deserve to be on that list, least be on the Top of it. As for ur claim of India being behind the two attacks of Pakistani educational institutes , U, just like a certain section of ur leaders have only talk and ABSOLUTELY NO evidence for the same. And frankly, until there is evidence , its stupid to even give air to ur conspiracy bonfire.. so i ant getting into it. (AND SIR, u better NOT question ME on Pakistan’s role, The world has credible evidence that Pakistan is the Global hub for jihad.. Hafiz Syed, Osama, mullah Omar, and a multitude of others- whether accepted or clandestine) As for ur sob story of Pakistan being a sweet boy caught in the corner by global bullies in USA and India, JUST answer ON
- Jjigsaww
One one hand you say you shouldn’t waste you time by replying me, and the next second i find you typing in 100 more lines. That is called obsession. As far as Gen Raheel is concerned, the fact is i don’t really support him being on number 1 on any list as long as he does not eliminate the entire corrupt political class of pakistan. You have a problem with him being on number 1 because of your indian background and inherent hate which blinds you well. My analysis is based on the results he has produced and should have. It is true that he may deserve to be on number 1 spot for his success in defeating indian backed terror sponsoring in Pakistan and eliminating TTP largely yet this is part of the problem. For me he is not even on number 10, as long as he fails to deliver what pakistani public actually wants from him. But Pakistanis love him and support him along with whole ISI and Pakistan
- AAkhil Anand
Well it seems Raheel ( let me avoid Shareef ) has a big plan to introduce himself into the political veins of Pakistan. And , the clever technique he has selected to counter the existing image of the Pakistani political system makes him highly eligible for this position. But at the end what the pakistani people would get is another military general from pakistani defence forces. And his influence is what i can feel here everybody is talking about the general and i see few concerns over the democratic face of the nation. I hope atleast this time things are constructive …….. What surprises me is why only Army ( As Pakistan also have Navy and Air force Too) of this Nation is always standing as front face ! are they not so capable or is that they too follow the Army orders. Quiet a confusing system they ( Pakistani’s) have.

- KKhizar Ahmed
Moron, our ISI and PAK Army is fighting with so many agencies such as CIA, KhusRAW, MOSSAD etc. at the same time which are responsible for these bomb blasts. In reality, it takes effort as it is not a video game to completely diffuse 100% bomb blasts from happening. Anyways, now a days, the bomb blasts have reduced a lot in Pakistan by giving continuous bambo stick in your fucking agency asses. Kulbhushan Khusra caught in our Balochistan is one example. Long live Pakistan. Long live ISI and PAK ARMY. #FUCKRANDIANS
