Jinnah was right. Thanks to him for separating this mess from India.
India would not have been this much ahead today without partition.
Hhhh love u bro, i wish our leader Abdul Ghafar khan (Bacha Khan) would have make a seperate state Pashtunistan.
Hasan Nisar said that had all Muslims left India in 1947, India would have been an advanced economy by this time. Most of these guys produce like rabbits, don't send children to good schools, live on government subsidies, and despite being the second largest majority still claim to be a minority.
But he failed to complete his job of getting every Muslim out of India. Pakistanis and Jenna did nothing in rhe freedom struggle but sat on their asses and got two free countries. It was Hindus who fought against the British and went to jail in large numbers for years to win freedom.
@@pashtoeditz1264 Yes separate Pashtun nation or re-merger with Afgh would have been best for all Pashtuns
Soon Indians would be celebrating Jinnah and Pakistan Gandhi.
I admire Mr. Zahid Hussain for describing the problems pertinent to Pakistan without comparing to India. He doesn’t suffer from ‘also in India’ syndrome. His clarity about the problems is truly admirable.
Please don't forget that it was Benazir only who gave official call of Jehad against India while visiting POK .
Every Bhutto was a great danger to India and destructive of a Rational Approach in Pakistan.
@user-bo8bu7jl2rwhole Pakistan and subcontinent belongs to India. Our past leaders were dumbs they must had implemented one India policy like one China policy. We should have invaded all our neighbours like China with ideology of communism. Because nehuru and Indira Gandhi were communism lover.
Yeah I remember “Jag-Jag mo-mo han-han” from the beloved liberal icon of Pakistan, Madam Bhutto
@user-bo8bu7jl2ryou mean apart from the signed instrument of accession?
As an oversea Pakistani Azad Kashmiri...let me tell u that nothing like POK exists...Only Azad Kashmir and IOJK.
Thanks
Pakistan destroyed itself with the Kashmir obsession. The Afgan play was just to pay bills.
Kashmir was/is just a cover story.
Pakistan’s India hatred and its obsession with hurting India has truly destroyed the country. Almost to the point of no recovery…
Hatred obsession has always been two way. Keep in mind; the AKHND BHARAT concept
@@zahurmalik9447 If India really wanted "Akhand Bharat", Bangladesh would have been made a province of the Republic of India.

@@puneetmishra4726Bro, it was impossible to make Bangladesh as their province,
India would become globally isolated oppressor,
With tons of sanctions
Which would have crushed India's economy & somewhat leftover power,
As,
India also don't have oil reserves like Iran or Russia to combat sanctions 😂🤣🤣
&
2ndly Bangaalis would never accept India as ruler
When they got freedom from these fanatic Hjndus
After huge political struggle.
So,
Bengaal would have become an ultra pro max 2nd Kashmir for India
With much worse consequences
& India didn't had enough power & resources & manpower, to manage that at all.!!
It's not as easy to occupy a big country of over 10 million people, 😂
A small place like Kashmir with small population is still requiring India to put 1 million army & a lot of resources there 😂😂
So, Bangladesh woukd require 5 million+ army to control which is impossible 😂🤣
India would have even lost Kashmir & many parts & pretty much get themselves destroyed, like a suicide
If they had tried to make Bangladesh a province
So,
You're lucky that at that time people with some brain were doing these tasks,
So, they just politically influenced bangladesh with their favorable govt. in Bangladesh

Not some fanatics like you 🤣🤣
@@zahurmalik9447 hatred obsession is predominantly one way, remember N@zis hated Jews, Jews were not the ones who hated German/N@zis first.

The uprising in 1989 in Kashmir was not indigenous. Lt General Asad Durani, ex-ISI chief was better informed on the subject. He has confessed during his interview with Mehdi Hasan of Al-Jazira, that the uprising in Kashmir was the biggest achievement of the ISI. Please watch, Pakistan a victim or creator of terrorism on You Tube.
Yes , speaker here is biased. The said uprising was not at all indiginous. Many books nd reference was made by pakistani regarding ISI involvment.

@@vivekpatil007 Please type, " Interview of ex-ISI chief Lt General Asad Durani at Oxford by Mehdi Hasan of Al-Jazira". Pay attention towards the end. Have strong heart to watch the truth of the double games played by Pakistan. Great truthful interview.
Assad Durrani was not on the scene during Kashmir uprising. This was in fact a spontaneous reaction on rigged elections in Kashmir under Indira's ruling Congress. It was absolutely an indigenous movement initiated by JKL Front and JI. However it later became adopted child by ISI with tacit support of CIA. The latter was also behind Sikhs Movement in East Punjab. Pakistan was just playing as second fiddle. The US of course used Pakistan as proxy but she herself was the main beneficiary. India which was pro Soveit was tamed and ultimately they became strategic partners. The Jargil War should be scene in the same background.

8:46 history of supporting militancy in Afghanistan started in 1972 by ISI. Christiane faire in her book referred based on green books of pakistani army.
Even as a leftist contributor in the Pakistani space, I find it astonishing that you are unable to unequivocally condemn how the encouragement of fundamentalist Islam and terrorism by Pakistan has destroyed the Kashmiri youth and the possibility of peace with India. It was a stupid foreign policy and even now the civilian leaders refuse to acknowledge it, asking for proof and such. You can find the records of ISI directing the Mumbai attacks. Be a responsible neighbor if you want to progress. Roti, kapda,padhai aur makaan are the basic needs of our populace.
Dear Leftists all over the world work hand in glove with Islamists 😊
Muslim leftist never speak against Islam because they know next day they will have STSJ unlike in other religion were Leftist thrive just because of bashing their own religion
All leftist world over are hand in glove with Islamists they have a strong eco system. 😊

Zahid Sb is an absolute Gem and Shehzad was absolutely right that there should be a series with him on how our country was destroyed by our own leaders.
Maximum Pakistanis want shariya in their state according to pew research survey,but they are against TTP.bhai mulq me confusion ni hai pura mulq hi confused hai😛😛
It all depends on what you understand by these labels.
It is funny that Indians are so active here commenting about Muslims wanting Shariya in Pakistan, when that is not really true, while in their country, they are establishing the extreme form of hinduism. Why are Indians wanting hindutva country?
There are diff interpretations of sharia according to diff schools of thought. Nobody wants the TTP's so called "sharia". Let's not even call it "sharia" in the first place
@@user-rh5jp2sh4s No you just lack basic knowledge of pakistani culture and the vision and interpretation of Islam majority subscribe to.
@Rogue_Terminator
True, there are issues, but
one can go by perception , or one can go by a thing called FACTS. Even in the worst time of General Zia under whom the military establishment strongly supported religious parties, they got 16% seats. Also, in the last election, ALL religious parties performed poorly. You talk of TLP, how seats did they win, TELL ME?. But the thing is when one finds faults in the "other" than probably its easier to reconcile with that ones own state has many short commings and the government is turning authoritarian...

Wonderful discussion. Refreshing to see the honest & straight forward commentary. Great guest.
Thank you for the wonderful podcast with Zahid Hussain Saab! The conversation was engaging, but I was taken aback when Hussain Saab mentioned "Kashmir mein militancy theek thaa." I'm confused about what he meant by that. Is he suggesting that militancy is acceptable in Kashmir but not in Pakistan? It's important to remember that extremism, militancy, or terrorism is never justifiable, regardless of the location. Unless people change their mindset, Pakistan will keep heading towards extremism.
Hate still find space in sane looking minds
Yes as long as it was done by Kashmiri Muslims, not by Muslims from other regions. And Pakistan pushed Muslims from other countries as making Kashmiri Muslims a terrorist was a difficult job.
@@NewYork0110J Yes, sane minds nature and extermism comes out when it is Hindu, Kashmir or Islam, No question about it and that's why extremism will never end in Pakistan. Hatred is and will be Pakistan's downfall.
Note: when it comes to India and Kashmir no Pakistani is honest and has the balls to be honest.

Comment at start of video:
Indian, just starting to watch this video, Indian who has faced terror attacks that originated from Pakistan. Train and bus Bomb blasts all across the country. Ahmedabad reeled and people lost lives. Security forces in swift preventive action captured bombs in Surat. All across the city!! Saw 1999 hijack at the turn of the century, filled with extreme anger and hatred. Saw the Akshardham attack first hand. Angered to the core. Relatives faced the Mumbai terror. A gory reminder that we cannot trust Pakistan. Kargil cannot be forgotten. 26/11 took up the uniform to avenge the lack of action of India against terrorism. Parliament attacks an affront to democracy where elected representatives from all over India were holding court and parliament was in session.
Just starting to watch. Let’s see what Shehzad’s guest says and what the host asks in questions.
You will find some Pakistanis that admit that they adopted a militancy policy. You will find zero pakis that demonstrate any shame for what they consistently did to India. If India had done one of those things the streets would have been flooded with protests. The will and character of our people is different.
I have never come across any Pakistani who is so bluntly accepting the role of ISI. These vlogs are the primary reason why Pakistan wants to control social media
Could have talked on kasmiri Hindu too
Hah lol you must be new here
Well! There is nobody in Pakistan that has unbiased knowledge of history (maybe syed Muzamil, but even he doesn't have knowledge on Indology Or history of ancient Or medivil india(on medivil india his knowledge is limited) ,he just has read many books and speaks his opinions and his knowledge is limited to one or two topics in history mostly European cause that's the only one taught as history and not propaganda).
U should not except pakistani to talk on these stuff, the foundation of this country was built as an inheritor of the islamic rule of india.
Every indian needs to stand for himself and not accept anything from pakistani.
In 1971 91k soldiers got away after raping 300k Bangladeshi women.
They glorify gazni, gori etc, their values r different, we are not the same.
@@ChakraVart1Well actually he didn't talk on the same.
He was trying to equate bhagat singh to hamas
He was trying to justify oct 7th.
It seems u r new.
Also if u look at the time invested, then he just touches the sensitive topics so that, in future people would not accuse him of not covering the same.
Zahid Hussain is a well articulated person.
You are just beating around the bush. The fundamental problem with Pakistan is that it follows Islam. It does not matter how much you treat the symptoms, all of which arise out of the base issue. And since it is not a problem that you will ever be able to solve or diminsh, you are doomed to fail miserably. Good riddance.
Millatary is the main problem, not having civilian democracy is the main problem. Islam maybe second or even 5th. You'd find night clubs, even bikini beaches in Turkey. Indonesia and Malaysia and Azerbaijan still manage to become democracies (flawed like India but still). UAE,A Monarchy, is definitely better than Pakistan right. Myanmar has been run by army too throughout her life after independence . Yes it gets worst when u add Islam in to it. As an atheist, Not saying Islam isn't Pakistanis problem, but biggest problem is army control. Civilian democracy has a tendency of making things better. It takes time tho but still better than army run government.
@@cinefile0075 Military's predominance over the civilian government is just another symptom of Islam. All the countries you mentioned where there is an apparent democracy are just in their transition phase. Islam always triumphs in the long run unless ofcourse, you escape its clutches. Let oil run out in Saudi and UAE, which works as the bulwark against their tumble. Or let European influence run out in Turkey and you will see that it won't take too long for these countries to start behaving according to their basest animal instincts.
@@cinefile0075how is India a " flawed" democracy?
Well, Turkiye and Malaysia, Indonesia are all Muslim. In fact, their per capita GDP exceeds India's by FAR. Even the growth rates of Bangladesh in the last years exceed that of India. Now, should one ever claim that the real reason for the low GDP per capita (per head) comes from the fact that the majority Indians are Hindu🤦🏻♂️. Context matters, something BJP IT cell trolls are blind to.
So by your logic, the recent happenings in India with places of worship, rising extremism and suppression of minority sufficient to day that the "fundamental problem with India is that it follows Hinduism"?

Zahid Hussain is a decent man without a doubt. However, the Pakistani state's embrace of extremist Islam is guided by an ideology that has its origins in the Two-Nation Theory which is basically a statement of Islam's superiority over Hinduism. The Pakistani state had to devote itself to Islamic expansionism--otherwise, it would have been contrary to its very raison d'être. Even the theory of American money fueling Islamic extremism is a flawed one; Pakistan became a member of SEATO, CENTO, and other alliances to have access to American money and materiel but its focus never wavered from the prize, which was the defeat of the land of kufr--India and ultimately the global victory of Islam. Whatever else may be the shortcomings of the Pakistani elite and state--and there are many, to be sure--they have never been deficient in world-dominating ambition.
In pre-independence British India, Muslims leagues had Muslim Guards promoting that.
Partition was correct. But it would be better if population exchange happen properly. . India would be peaceful and developed. 14% of population. 1% in army. 2% contribution to economy. 30% in jails.
0percent Tax. 100percent subsidy, electricity theft, criminal records more than population share. This 14 percent is a burden we are carrying. This is dragging nation building otherwise we would have been developed by now if 95percent were Hindu
Pakistan politicians always act as duffer, now the new PM have put kashmir & Palestine together merely to please local audience.
