US-Pakistan Relationship in the wake of Afghan situation

Pak-US Relations (A brief insight)

Pakistan and the US are currently in warm waters. This has happened as a result of the apocalyptic Taliban takeover of Afghanistan. On the United States side, it has always opted for aggressive policy decisions when it comes to dealing with developing South Asian countries and Pakistan is no exception to this case.

The fall of Kabul on 15 August enunciated the weak policymaking of US stakeholders. And unlike any other neighbor of Afghanistan, Pakistan shares strong socio-cultural values with the country. It is not an option for Pakistan to cut off itself from its western part. Consequently, Pakistan has always been supportive of Afghan stability because instability there would directly disrupt the peace and stability in its own borders.

Given the emerging circumstances in the region, the United States as usual discredited Pakistan for its positive role in Afghan stability and maneuvered the situation by mischaracterizing Pakistan state authority to justify their failure in the war against terrorism. Due to Pakistan's weak leverage to international politics, the US has been playing well to scapegoat Pakistan, a country, which has always been a loyal ally to the US in their abroad missions. 

However, despite some skirmishes between the two States, it seems obvious that no one wishes to deteriorate the relationship for a larger good. Pakistan like any responsible country is trying to clarify all the misconceptions being created against its image at the national, regional, and international levels. Similarly, the United States is also recognizing the strategic importance of Pakistan and a player who can smoothly tackle the haphazard situation in Afghanistan. 

Thank you for your company!

Steal like an artist by Austin Kleon

  Book Cover (Source: Tapan Desai) Summary (informal) Everyone wants to become something in his life.  There’s no single formula to achieve one’s desired destination.  In this rapidly changing information climate, everything has become more competitive and less rewarding for those who do not pay more attention to details.  It is healthy to settle one’s mind to steal ideas productively from those who have experimented with them successfully.  There’s no harm in stealing ideas as there’s nothing as new to the world today given the scale of information exchange around the globe due to the Internet.  Since everything is already available on Google, one must go there and copy from authentic sources.  Make changes in it and sell it to the world. While you are working on the project, keep an eye on wrongs that might discredit the efforts.  Copying from a single person is plagiarism, but doing the same thing from more than one is research.  A good artist always credits his work to those from w

Why reading books is important?

There can be various aspects to this question. However, I will stick to a few points to convey to your mind why reading is an important exercise. Human is social being and to understand the world we need to learn new information constantly.  The learning must be slow and fast. No one can learn all the information available out there at once. For Humans to learn and that too authentic, a companion/teacher is required. Books can be trustworthy teachers in our lives. As we know, the human brain is a unique engineering tool. We can see things and make a judgment about them. We can hear the voice and make a particular opinion about it. We can walk on the ground and make an analogy of how it’s different from other parts of the world. We continuously improvise our ideas as we get updated information passing through our heads. This trait is unique and makes us better than Chimpanzee. Our minds require a continuous flow of information, and this information can be about anything, even the color

7 lessons I learned from the Al Chemist

Lesson #1:- Humans are tested with calamities and challenges to build a stronger intellectual ground where they can protect their lives and become able to create a better world for future generations.  Those who risked their lives and followed their dreams, they have got the victory. And those who did not risk, and played it safe,  merely stopped where they needed to start. Lesson #2:- Santiago in the search of his legend (true inner self) encountered challenges and a few close calls to death. In the search for treasure, he fearlessly bids on his life by selling his sheep to an old King joins a crystal shop in an unknown part of Africa, and finally embarks on the longest journey towards the Pyramids of Egypt.  His passion to find the unknown treasure based on his audacious belief in omens led him to overpower all the negative forces that could have stopped him from achieving his legend. Quote “If you believe in yourself worthy of the thing you fought so hard to get, then you become
