#1 And they'll still be outweighed almost 5:1 by their Hindu buddies.

#2 Although population growth is very hard to predict a half a century from now, Hindus might make up as little as 50% of the combined population of India+Pakistan+Bangladesh, with Muslims making up most of the rest.
However, if Iran could cut it's brithrate from 7 to less than 3 children per family in one generation, it should be possible for the same thing to happen in those countries, assuming the governments wanted it to.

#3 I must need new lenses. I thought the headline said YAK population...

Glad to hear it's not. Nasty beast, the Yak...

#4 I think I would actually prefer a growing Yak population to growing Pak one. Unless of course they are fundamentalist extremist Yaks.

#5 Clearly, these estimates are pre nuclear war estimates: what may happen should India choose not to nuke Pakistan.

#7 they'll never make it.....the average IQ and spittle factor are speeding in opposite directions. It's only a matter of time before the fundos get their hands on the nukes and everyone gets the martyrdom they say they want

#10 Methinks our own Dr Badanov has this one pegged. What diff will it make when they're 2 smokin' holes? Just cream filling.

#11 let's see; one-third of the population living in abject poverty, 54 million use unsanitary drinking water, major food shortages, 53.5 million can't read, yep, they just ain't breeding enough.

#12 We're not going to let them get that big. We know that here.

#13 I'm constantly amazed that we have not yet had a super-flu blow through some of these over-populated, poor, densely packed unsanitary hellholes....how long can that last? A swine or Spanish flu like 1917 would wipe out these backwaters

#14 Ok, so let me see if I've got this straight. You have a dusty backwater country that's already overpopulated. There's not enough clean water, sanitation, or jobs.
The Islamic solution is to more than double your population in less than 50 years?!?!
Maybe that's how they convince their young that suicide killing is a rational option. I mean, think about it......I'd rather blow myself up than live in a stinking shithole like that.
