bin Laden

Despite the criticism of Pakistan for allegedly protecting bin Laden, has anyone asked the flip side of the question? Namely, with as much military presence they apparently have in that city, how did a group of US commandos manage to pull this off? Is the Pakistani Army really that incompetent? Or did they double-cross bin Laden? Rhetorical questions. ←Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots→ 15:32, 2 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

if that sort of info is reported in WP:RS it should definitely be included. to answer that rhetorical question for the sake of discussion on my talk page. Pakistani Army is not incompetent ( they lasted a good 13 days before letting India dismember their motherland in Indo-Pakistani War of 1971) Likely ISI was not told about this but clearly some elements in Pakistan must have collaborated (even if it was in return for boatloads of dollars). Also I would infer that US special forces showed extraordinary competence in pulling this one off right from under the noses of Pakistani military establishment. several sources have said that Pakistan was told only after the operation and I have no reason to suspect that.--Wikireader41 (talk) 15:39, 2 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Once they figured out where bin Laden was, they could take their time and make meticulous plans for pulling off a successful raid. This contrasts dramatically with Carter's disastrous attempt to rescue the 50 hostages in 1979, if you're old enough to remember that. It occurs to me that politically it might be good to make Pakistan appear to have been caught flatfooted as opposed to double-crossing bin Laden's group. Sometimes it's politically safer to look incompetent. At this point, I wouldn't rule anything out. Pakistan has to tread a fine line with this one. ←Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots→ 16:25, 2 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
well I can tell you now. nobody in Pakistan will believe what they dont want to believe. I can see intensifying heat on Zardari about selling out Pakistan. Already calls of "violation of Pakistani sovereignty" are being heard. But nobody will say that yes the vast majority in Pakistan is neck deep in with these buggers and the 4 US supporters in that country are actually CIA agents. The problems with us Americans is that we still believe that the Jihadists/Pakistanis can be reformed. On Partition of India all the moderate muslims stayed in India while the fanatics went to Pakistan. it is a heavily preselected population. Therefore a moderate Pakistan is a misnomer. the sooner everybody realizes that sooner we can move on to the next step.--Wikireader41 (talk) 17:18, 2 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
My work colleagues from India know it well. Pakistan is not to be trusted. Thanks for that wikileaks note, as it adds a lot of interesting information. If true, the Pakistani regime is up to their adams-apple in this game. It also explains why it took 4 or 5 years to get this plan executed. Speaking of executing, I recall after some other jihadist outrage around 2002 or 2003, Bill O'Reilly (of whom I am not a fan) said that the gauntlet had been thrown down (or words to that effect) and that there is only one possible solution: "Kill them. Kill them all." We're at war with this looneys, and as it's not a conventional war, there are almost no rules. A lot of people, including a lot of Muslims, are happy that OBL is dead. And when this other guy takes over, we need to hunt him down and kill him as well... and keep doing it until there's nobody willing to take the job. Unfortunately, that might take awhile. ←Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots→ 17:36, 2 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
"On Partition of India all the moderate muslims stayed in India while the fanatics went to Pakistan." What a deluded piece of nonsense. I wonder what you learn in Indian educational curriculum? It is better, Wikireader41, if you keep your anti-Pakistan prejudice and rant out of Wikipedia please - it's for your own good. I have already thought several times of reporting you, as extremist, biased editors are a threat to the neutrality of Wikipedia. Some of your comments are really disgusting and revolting, to the extent that I actually have to waste my time in heated arguments. Mar4d (talk) 06:15, 8 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
In the case, could you throw some light on moderate views in Pakistan on treatment of Hindus in Pakistan please? I am sure many sources can be presented here (1, 2, 3, graph on population, etc.) to show that population of Hindus in Pakistan has dwindled, Hindus are troubled, harassed, raped, killed and cleansed in Pakistan, and there is not much work done in this regard at all. So could you explain please what have the moderates done for Hindus, considering the view that a substantial number of Pakistanis are moderates? I will be glad to hear it. ..असक्तः सततं कार्य कर्म समाचर | असक्तः हि आचरन् कर्म.. Humour Thisthat2011 08:26, 8 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

(od)Jinnah said and I quote:

[1], today 150 million Muslims live in India, Pakistan has been cleaned of all the Hindus barring a tiny minority. Who is prejudiced? Who is ranting? Perhaps the Indian education system is bad; did it not prouduce Jinnah who carved a Pakistan, but forgot an equal number of Muslims whom Pakistan wouldn't accomodate, though it was ethnically cleaned of its Hindus. Who is extremist, who is biased? Yogesh Khandke (talk) 06:44, 8 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The Tomahawks launched in the 1990s during the Clinton administration would have gotten Bin Laden thus preventing 9/11. But that did not happen because the Clinton administration chose to share the information with the treacherous Pakistani ISI even if it was just minutes before the firing of the missiles. What a terrible loss the world had to suffer because of that treachery. Zuggernaut (talk) 07:46, 8 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

first we need to recruit more editors knowledgeable about Indian history. then we can have some hope of countering POV pushers like Fowler&fowler who are running amok on WP. Kind of the same thing that Gandhi had to do really. I find it very disturbing that WP has started many mini wikipedias in Indian languages so as to "divide and rule" and decrease the amount of time editors knowledgeable about India spend on english wikipedia. really unless the billion Indians are adequately represented on english wikipedia WP:BIAS issues will persist I am afraid.--Wikireader41 (talk) 15:26, 18 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
It is just not one man, he is amply aided by many other editors and even admins, including Indians like MikeL7 and so on. See how this guy User:MikeLynch. For example, in this discussion Talk:India/Archive_33#Wikipedia_naming_style_for_the_first_line_of_the_page_on_India_i.e._Bharat India name RFC, he kept asking
  • "is whether Bharat is a widely used alternative name for India";
  • "show reliable third party publications, which frequently use Bharat as an alternative for India. I am not talking about proper nouns, about organisations, or about government schemes. I am talking about normal newspaper reports, and journals.";

which are nonsense questions for that and kept interrupting.

But when I actually gave a source that explicitly names Bharat/Hindustan as names of India here "country's name" and here, he , and others, kept quite and let Fowlerx2 do his routine black humor - completely partisan approach just for disruption and a retarded exercise to avoid consensus.
What a pathetic mentality Hindus have to deal with here. ..असक्तः सततं कार्य कर्म समाचर | असक्तः हि आचरन् कर्म.. Humour Thisthat2011 16:08, 18 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Barack Obama visit to India

Hi! You may remember me from discussions at ITN.

I've created an article 2010 Barack Obama visit to India. At the moment it's still a stub pretty much. If I remember correctly you contributed to the previously deleted article Barack Obama's visit to India. Hopefully, following the precedent currently being set at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/2011 royal tour of Canada, the article won't be challenged this time or will survive an AfD. Your help in developing the article would be appreciated. Cheers!--Johnsemlak (talk) 04:10, 4 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Interesting. I thought the admin who deleted the Obama article acted pretty carelessly as even in that AfD no consensus to delete existed. Thankfully he gave up his administrative tools soon thereafter. If the AfD succeeeds should pursue WP:DRV and see what happens.--Wikireader41 (talk) 18:50, 4 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I just voted to keep the article. Amazing to see so many people wanting to delete it. Zuggernaut (talk) 06:37, 8 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the contribution. Check out the previous deletion discussion if you want to arguments people made. I think the opposition to this is due to two reasons: a)There's some paranoia on various parts of Wikipedia that there's too much stuff about Obama. Some people post arguments not everything Obama does is notable as if we're making articles about his trips to the restroom; b) there's a feeling among many people that state visits (excluding anything related to the British royal family) are insignificant. I think there's a feeling that they are just for show and not very significant in molding foreign relations.--Johnsemlak (talk) 08:39, 8 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
If they delete this, I'm creating George W. Bush's vacations in Crawford, TX - that should be notable just for the duration and the number of vacations. Just kidding :-) Zuggernaut (talk) 14:20, 8 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
The inconsistency of application of various policies is the systemic problem on WP. In any given debate it boils down to what the debating editors Interpretation of policy is and most WP policies are not clear cut. some of them are contradictory. so I would guess if the same article was listed for deletion 4 different times we could possibly have 4 different results depending on which editors feel like showing up on a given day. Even the last AfD was closed by the closing admin stating that there was "rough consensus" to delete when the standard is "obvious consensus" per WP:NotEarly. Looking at the Afd right now I do not see any kind of consensus emerging again so the Article needs to be kept ( which is the default situation when no consensus emerges). great job John for working on this and my greetings from Chicagoland looks like you are familiar with this area.--Wikireader41 (talk) 19:17, 8 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Congratulate me when the article passes AfD :). A couple of recent contributions have pushed consensus a bit towards keep so I'm hopeful. However, I'm worried an admin will use the previous deletion of the article as a precedent and delete it if s/he feels there's no consensus this time. While the !vote, is still split, I hope a sensible admin will come in a see that we've provided evidence that it meets WP:EVENT and does not fall under WP:NOTNEWS. I'm from Illinois but from Downstate Illinois, though certainly familiar with Chi-town.--Johnsemlak (talk) 11:25, 11 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
lets hope we get a more knowledgeable admin to close this time. As you said WP:CCC so the past AfD is only of limited influence. like I said in order for the article to be deleted "obvious consensus" to delete needs to exist. if their is no consensus then the default is to keep. like with last AfD this one is showing a "No Consensus" with stronger arguments for keep. so the article should be kept. otherwise we can consider getting another opinion at WP:DRV. we have been thinking of hiking Shawnee National Forest during fall for several years but haven't gotten around to doing it.--Wikireader41 (talk) 14:23, 11 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
It looks like the article got deleted. It seems unfair to me that we have an article on the British royal couple (how many of them are there?) touring Canada when they are really doing nothing useful. And important visits such as these, which can potentially have an impact on billions of people, are not covered. Zuggernaut (talk) 05:28, 13 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

well that would be violation of WP:RECENTISM the question is whether it has been used ever or not. multiple RS describe the time of Gupta's as a Golden age if not the golden age in Indian history. some of the RS I pointed to are pretty recent and written by non Hindu nationalists. al points of view need to be given due weight. that is how this discussion needs to proceed . not a blanket removal of the term because Fowler&fowlers favorite history textbook says otherwise.Wikireader41 (talk) 15:12, 13 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
