This is serious stuff. Does this mean the romance between the US and Pak is over?
This highlights the tenuousness of the earlier friendship between the two 
countries based on opportunistic use of each other during the days of the
cold war and the mujahideen in Afghanistan (much like the relationship between
the US and Syria during the Gulf war). Now that the cold war is over and
the communists thrown out of power in Afghanistan, the US does not seem to need
Pakistan any more. Was Pakistan prepared for this eventual fall-out of an
extremely unlikely friendship? Although it was clear that the US did not regard
Pak as its pet any more, I was surprised to hear that this is what has come out
of the gradual deterioration of their relationship. How credible is the
news source? What really is the likelihood of this happening?

PVNR   is committing mistake  after  mistake. By not dismissing UP govt. to
the last moment, he wasn't playing  into hands   of BJP  thus weakening
their  support base. I   thought  atleast this is  one good outcome  of
this sorry episode.

It looks like  Cong-I  is determined to nullify  this good effect too  by
their  usual callous stupid maneuver. Are Punjab and Kashmir not enough for

Looks like sour grapes to me. It seems only business
these indian journalist excel in is perpetual criticism.
This disease is common among people who somehow do not have
a capacity to appreciate good living or are unable to enjoy life.

If you do not have money, there is nothing wrong in staying
in a slum. However the fact that you stay in a slum does'nt
make you superior to someone who is staying in 4 bedroom, 2 living room or ... home.
There is nothing great about journalist
(who are part of a thick skinned insensitive holier than thou lot)
who want to derive some mileage by trying to lecture the NRIs about their
life styles. May be he should look at their own bankrupt life styles in
India where they do not have any self esteem and are trying to mimic
the westerners. They buy maruti, videocon washing machines (matshusta's machine), which all have high foreign content. However they are unable to earn
any foreign exchange on their own. It is the poor person who suffers insults at the
hands of saudies kuwaitees etc who earns this foreign exchange that these guys spend. It
is the NRIs who lobbied the bush administration and got them the super computer in bangalore.
The indian ambassador (Govt) has no clout.

  I agree with Milind Tambe. There is absolutely no point in 
  demanding PVNR's resignation. It will only worsen the situation. 
  In fact other centrist parties should support Rao to restore the
  order. This government must complete its term. This will
  help the democratic process in India, in general. We have
  seen too many short-term governments in recent past and
  as we all know, it only makes the things worse.

I apologise for my emotional outburst. 
Apart from that, I standby what I said.

But I think statements made by you and Mr. Kavuri that somehow
muslims are to be blamed for voilence during communal roits in Hyd.
(which is completely untrue) and Mr. Kavuri's deduction from
that, 'muslims all over the world are trouble mongers'
is not only illogical but also very offensive. 

Either Mr. Kavuri needs to substantiate his conclusions
with proper evidence or else apologise.

Sir, if you are really interested in understanding communal
voilence, make a case study of any one of these roits.
Several articles, reports and books have been written
about this topic. Talk to ordinary people, Hindu and Muslim,
who got affected in communal voilence.
Then you would understand what I was saying.
But sir, please do not propogate communal myths in the
name of facts. 


>I disagree with your posting..it is like a child's posting..

I guess, you have every right to make your own judgement.
Maybe, you can point out contradictions in my posting.
Anyhow, I am more happy that I have more sense and
humaneness left than to brand a whole population
as 'trouble mongers'.

I am extremely ashamed of some Hindus, who are trying to justify the
killings in Bangladesh and Pakistan.  Not that I don't understand
it, when it comes to boot licking, we always try to outdo each other.

When India made a constitution, which had secular laws for Hindus, Christians,
Jews, Budhists and Parsis, and also had a sepereate laws for Muslims.  Did
they copy us then?  No both Pakistan and Bangladesh are Islamic republics.
Many Muslims in India have had the opportunity( deservedly), to occupy high
offices, did they copy us then? But when a Mosque gets destroyed,
they see it fit to not only copy India, but to outdo us,  many Temples
were destroyed in Pakistan (which frankly I don't care), and many Hindu
chlidren and women were killed.  The Pakistanis and Bangladeshis
conveniently forgot that temples have been destroyed before in their
countries before the Ayodhia incident.  This happens to be the first
incident of a Mosque being destroyed in India.

I with a majority of Indians agree that destroying the Babri Masjid was
a deplorable act, but hasn't our govt acted in a fair manner?  The
army removed the Kar Sevaks, from the site, the VHP and the RSS both
have been banned.  The Kalyan Singh and Advani immediatly resigned.
Advani said that the BJP was not responsible for the destruction of
the mosque but we did not give him the benifit of doubt, and arrested
him.  Which is obviously the correct thing to do.  The govt has also
promised to rebuild the Mosque.  

The point I am trying to make is that, we Indians are basically fair
people, and we cannot be blamed for the murder going on in Pakistan
and Bangladesh.  The majority of Pakistanis (I am not including the
Sindhis), have always hated the Hindus and now they have an excuse
to take out their hatred.

	Big deal if they were the first to send troops to Somalia.
	If they really care about stopping terrorist activity in E.Africa
	then they should go after the gun-runners, most of whom are known
