https://www.rferl.org/a/pakistani-polic ... 18821.htmlPakistan's government has called attack a "conspiracy" against the strategic cooperation between Islamabad and Beijing.
On November 24, Pakistani counterterrorism police officer Umar Khitab said the attackers used a foreign-made C-4 plastic explosive and suggested that India was involved.

“Such incidents will never be able to undermine Pak-China relationship,” the statement added. Neighboring China is Pakistan’s closest ally, ploughing billions of dollars in loans and infrastructure investments into the South Asian nation as part of Beijing’s vast Belt and Road initiative.

I won't even mention their hard handed tactics in the South China Sea.The case is one of the most vivid examples of China’s ambitious use of loans and aid to gain influence around the world — and of its willingness to play hardball to collect.
The debt deal also intensified some of the harshest accusations about President Xi Jinping’s signature Belt and Road Initiative: that the global investment and lending program amounts to a debt trap for vulnerable countries around the world, fueling corruption and autocratic behavior in struggling democracies.

Haha, you clearly know nothing about the forced abortions in China, the Tianenman Square (recently, as in the 89), or the worst mass murderer in history, Mao.mrswdk wrote:It's sad really.

Actually ... no. All things considered and with the average average baby it's safer to give birth than to have an abortion, especially a "forced" one because if you are forcing someone against their wishes you probably don't really care for the patient either.

Uterine wall perforation is the number one abortion complication in late term abortions.

A 'perforation' is just a cut - it could be quite serious, or it could be so minor that a doctor wouldn't need to do anything about it.tzor wrote:Uterine wall perforation is the number one abortion complication in late term abortions.

I have to agree with Tzor on this one... to the average baby it's much safer to have been given birth to then to have been aborted. Being aborted offers an almost 100% chance of dying. While being given birth to offers a whole childhood of being on welfare and sucking your stepdads dick so he won't beat you and your mom. Not ideal, but certainly better than death for the average baby.tzor wrote:Actually ... no.
