TO MS. MYRA MCDONALD:

Well, there you go again maam. Do you know HOW VERY difficult it is for our 2 nations to establish any credible milestone towards peace, and how LONG it takes for us to get there and then a few choice words from your varied and illustrious columns and in an instant we forget about ALL that protracted effort and pull out our swords! Only YOU would know if you’re contributing to peace in the Subcontinent. I would suggest – NOT.

HOW ABOUT you get to the ROOT of our mutual dissent? Confused aye?

At the risk of sounding like a broken record, and please pardon my borrowing a line from the 1st Clinton run, allow me to remind you – that it is INDEED:

THE KASHMIR PROBLEM STUPID!

Instead of posting your wonderful spark ready catalysts all over the web, do you suppose you could come to the root of our mutual anguish? (thanks a LOT Lord Montbatten, how can we ever forget you!)

In fact the sooner India, the world’s biggest democracy, shakes off it’s positive allergy to SERIOUSLY discussing this important issue fully and finally (remember reading about the Kashmiri PLEBISCITE Ms. Mcdonald?) the sooner that WHOLE region and by extension, the West can feel safer. Our courageous Musharraf and his multi one-way unanswered gestures (how unfortunate) may have left the scene, but our Indian friends PLEASE understand this:

Cosmetic and mere lip service CBM’s, stubbornly refusing to include a chorus of near impatient 3rd party mediators (US PRES. OBAMA being the latest) with the real hope that the issue will somehow be swept under the rug by the passage of time are a waste of both time and money. Ain’t going to happen, and neither is Pakistan going anyplace.

HEEEELLLLLOOOOO???? Is the Indian government listening?

There Ms. Mcdonald, let’s see if you can rattle your ever ready pen on that one. Or should we continue to put the cart before the horse?

To Umair,

Umair, you exemplify the delusional Pakistani mindset. Your suicidal “bring it on” comments look out of touch when Pakistan is being whipped mercilessly; militarily, economically & politically.

I don’t see why Pakistan would support these so called ‘islamist’ militant organizations given the trouble it is itself facing in its own land by these very groups.

Alan, US or Isreal do not have to be doing something like a terror attack in mumbai to get Indias support to wage a attack on pakistan..and Obama or anybody in US and Isreal know that verywell..dont open a another can of worms..

How sure are you guys that Usa and Israel are not behind the recent attack on Mumbai? i assume they have been seeking for support to keep the so called “war on terror” everywhere. someone of you might heard what the elect-president Obama mentioned while in his campaign ‘attack on Pakistan, a terror feeder’. now they got stonger reason to wage another war. my friend has been to Agganistan and saw there things. it happened a lot that american troopers setting up the bomb attacks there, accusing some terrorists, for justifying their presence on the land. so here we go…

Rightly pointed out by every one, India must act with Caution and at the right time, but this time India must not let it go without driving the whole affair to a logical end and making our dear neighbors understand well that this time the public is backing its leaders to take all necessary action to weed out the rats hiding in the hills of POK.

Vijay..everybody is frustrated and angry..as you said our blood is not so cheap, which is more the reason why India should not act in anger and out of shear frustration..Am not saying India should just forget the whole thing and stay quite..but should strike but at the right time, when it causes maximum pain..

Om,

Whether it is Brain or Brawm, The dirty manipulation of enemy Politics has costed Indian Life.I do not think our bloods are so cheap that any body can come spill & go unscathed.Unless a strong response is made it may result in more indian bloods being spilled. We need to stand up with or without international support.It is not a trophy we are after,but about punishment for crimes committed on our nation we are after.
