    Yep.

    We should rebuild a country that has thousands of people trying to kill our guys in Afghanistan.

    How about the 'great' Islamic powers do that instead.

    Pakistan is the enemy.

    I can understand the knee jerk reaction.

    Anyways wheter enemy or not thousands of innocents have died and millions have been severely affected with no end of the misery in sight. No matter what everyone says I say big props to the US and British army who are already there and to NATO for the offer. And I am expecting many others to join

    I hope these people actually see and realise that those that they mistrust so much are one of the first one in time of need. A friend in need is a friend indeed. Rather than those manipulative rich retards literally just hours away. :roll:

    Clearly not a good time for that country just last week they had the biggest air crash disaster in its history with over 150 dead and no survivours. The right the next day massive demonstrations in its biggest city wirh around 50 dead and right after that these devastating floods which have affected 2/3rds of the country and is moving south as the monsoon rains dont stop.

    All the while the idiot president is on a tour of Briton fussing over some comments by cameron. I think any president or prime minister of any sane country would have its ass whooped for such actions.

    But I would be keeping a very sharp eye on any finacial aid sent as almost everyone one there is corrupt to the core

    Its not a knee-jerk reaction DD. I don't say all Pakistanis are the enemy but there sure is a lot of them trying to kill our guys. Have we forgotten the 7/7 bombings in London too?

    We should be very careful on this one. Things are not what they seem.

    Sorry I'm all out of love for a country that hides and supports the taliban.
    Did Osama survive the floods... and for petes sake don't bring any of them to Brampton..the Calcutta of the north!

    Well the 7/7 dudes were not pakistanis but Brits of paki origin. They were born and bred and England. But thats just a technicality and does not excuse their gross crimes.

    I do disagree that a lot of them are trying to kill your guys in Afghanistan. Like I said most of these guys who are trying to kill your guys are 99% the pashtoon, a lot of them even afghan refugees who crossed the border during the Russian war and later got pakistani citizenship. Basically the pashtoon are the same peopel just divided by political borders.

    Although this radicalisation has started to spread from the ex mujahideen now taliban and al qaida but you would be hard to find any non pashtoon pakistanis in afghanistan fighting with the taliban. I not saying there arn't any but a very very minute number.

    If he's in pakistan then I hope not. Although this might be in bad taste but I think this disaster would affect the taliban a lot aswell.

    Kenny, Calcutta is in India ! :roll:

    Pakis are more at home in Missusauga :wink:

    Yeah Kenney I think we all know that by now. You rather fund the Quebec sovereignty movement :wink: I wonder how you ever got into the health services with an ass attitude like that.

    Sorry to disappoint.. I am not a separatist and don't support it. I am starting to question your origins though.. you seem rather anti Qu�bec to be in another country. pay more attention to my avatar... here to save your ass and not kiss it.. means just that. I have compassion and caring but not for enemies of the country... sorry to say it, but I would let enemies of Canada and the US die before I would extend help.. and I know they would do the same!

    Give me a break. Pakistanis in the UK, including those born there, want nothing today with the mainstream UK. They actively refuse to integrate.

    Pakistanis huddle in ethnic enclaves, buy from other Pakistanis, intermarry, and generally carry on as if they were still in Pakistan.

    Seen it and been there. Manchester/Oldham/Leeds/Bradford.
