Vices in the human mind are the problem. Love and Compassion are the solution. From these twin qualities arise peace, harmony, consideration, respect etc. Anything else just beats about the bush and becomes a complicated exercise for the intellect, with little result. People should actually put into practice "love and compassion" the cornerstone and essence of any religion in the world. Any takers?

When Gandhiji died Jinnah said that a hindu leader has died. This is the way they treated him and you think compassion can make any difference
Pakistan's military dominance has been sustained by external interests. Our old policy of 'strong and prosperous Pakistan' has totally failed. It only enlarged the scope fo Sino-Pak nexus. To liberate Pakistan i.e. establish a civil secular democracy based on English law, the way we have in India, is the only safe option for India. For this we need a new security policy premise. 1. Security linkage with a nation only if it abrogates all security linkages with Pak military rulers. 2. Response to any nuclear threat from Pakistan would be extended to the source of the capability provider.
1. "One of them is that Pakistan has a fundamental identity problem and can therefore only define herself in anti-Indian terms. This is clearly not the case in reality." But is that not so? You have only stated, not justified this. Strange. What is pakistan based on if not an anti-india stance? . 2. "The other argument that one hears in India questions the role of Pakistan army,... " But this role is correct. Conjoined with the misconception in pakistan that india is out to get it (a misconception propagated by the paki establishment itself), the paki heads ARE in the business of keeping its own people in fear. . India paki relations ARE a communalism - secularism 'paradigm', more so because of the communal pakis. "the social reality of the subcontinent, the history of religious tolerance", as you mention, are because of the Hindus / Indians, and not because of the pakis and other islamic entities in the subcontinent. . Strangely, muslims are getting the credit for peace in the subcontinent while they are actually the reason why the question of peace arises here. It is the largely peace-loving Hindu thinking Indians who have maintained peace in the subcontinent. pakis and bangdeshis have, time and again, challenged that peace.

(Menon and banerjee)s name resemble being as communists and who do not have any proud of being Indian.
How long our foreign Secretary will discuss and there is no conclusion. When we discuss among the foreign secretary immediately some fundamental forces killed our innocent people and Inida reacts strongly but after some time again discussion started. What is the outcome I do not know. Moreover Pakistan main aim is Kashmir which we never will give and at the same time their core issue is kashmir only remaining all are not much important as well as adjustable mutually. Why not both the country accept the present status of LOC and accept the fact and no more talk in kashmir. WE also know that huge amount both the countries are spending their armys and our encommy is also effected. WE should go in reality.Don't make unnecessary plunge in this issue.

arey yaar, if u end the Kashmir Problem, what will the Pakistan Army, Our Congress, people like S. S. Menon and the other foreign secrataries do. Their bread and butter lies in the kashmir problem alive and kicking.
Mr Menon is also a psuedo secular becase if he is not he will loose hi job, as correctly told Mr Iyer lets finsh this Kashmir issue by taking out pak from pok and make it India's Kashmir

Very Well Said, Srikanth. This yaqoot or 'Ye-qootta' can understand only this language. They won't understand unless we put a big fat Bamboo into them. But they r lucky that we have a puppet government now.

Yaqoot, we know you guys are violent. You don't need to actually threaten us to prove it. . I pity you because you, with an Arabic name, are fighting for the arabs in their 6th century way, while conflicting with the history of your own land (yes, pakistan's history is that of Bhaaratwarsh) and its great culture, not your imported arabic culture. . More shame for you lies in the fact that the same POK you are so proud about is probably the worst place in your country where people do not have dignity and a decent standard of living, leave alone hefty concepts like freedom. They don't even have food and shelter. . Even during the earthquakes, they were your terrorist organisations who were feeding these people, not your official establishment. This either means that the two (your establishment and the terrorists groups) are the same OR it means that your establishment does not care for these people who live in a land you call yours. Think about it.

We want fragmented pak - punjab, sind, bloch etc. small hostile contries to each other. These will act as wall between Strong India and Oil rich arbaic and persian countries.
