Karunanidhi is encouraged by developments in Pakistan. He has already crowned Stalin as next CM. His next step is to name Stalin's son as the next DMK youth wing chief. The process of looting TN's wealth will go on smoothly.

Jehadis having nukes is indeed very dangerous. But one thing you dint recognize; the jehadis spend their energy fighting each other. With Nukes, pakistan's extreme elements may rather pick a fight with Shia Iran. The jehadis hate each other more tha nothers. Right now India cant do anything but wait and watch. In anycase, Pak cant wag a figer against India, our Nukes plus missiles are more than superior to Pak. Even jehadis arent fools they know they wont exist if they press nuke button.

Closely associated and children are not same. People work closely in profession that is not same as being a family. You work with your female boss in office that doesnt mean that she is your family member. Understand that.
Periyar and Annadurai were close, but that dint mean they had sexual relation right?
Of course Karuna is close to Ki Veeramani of DMk and they may be having a "physical" tie, but that doesnt mean every body is like that. dont try to generalise things right..

This shows that South Asians essentially have a slave mentality. It was Maharajas, Sultans, Khans, Mughals who ruled various parts of undivided India. They passed on the mantle to their children and public fell on their feet. It was British who civilized Indians and taught them self respect but 100 years of British was not enough for us.

Before British came It was Maharajas and Mugals who picked up women at will and raped them. They used to maintain harems with so many women not to speak of use and throw women.
It was Brits who brought rule of law and civiliaztion to our country. British were the best thing to have ever happened in India's history. Indians should be forever grateful to English. Kyon Bhiayya samj gaye? Imagine some more british influence n UP and Bihar or you feel laloos, mayawatis, mulyam yadavs would be better?
and she was accusing musharraf of trying to cling to power. This second and third generation politicians that talk about democracy must be cut from the money they have locked up and win the affection of the people just as they should in a democracy. 19 yrs old, talks of democracy as the best revenge. I mean, rahul says the similar things . remember he said " I could have been PM if i wanted to". Do these people not even twitch when talking about democracy. SHAME ON US for not putting rules and laws in place to implement freedom of leadership to bring new ideas and power to the people.
I am sorry he lost his mother the way he did, but there ends the pity. He will win the elections on a sympathy vote. Can you imagine him pulling the levers of power in a subcontinent that has 500 yr issues and abject poverty and violence as a way of life. My God. it is a Disaster
We normally define democracy as the govt of the people by the people and for the people.It is been apparent for some time that this is sentimental drivel. The more appropriate defintion of democracy as practised in real life is that it is in the nature of a competition between a few elite groups for control of a nation for a defined period. In south asian countries however we would have to search for yet another definition: democracy as a myth where dynasties attempt to gain legitimacy by an appeal for public sanction of their rule.But this time the myth of Benazir as a democratic figure has been well and truly burst.well she can join the hallowed revolutionary who ruled as long as he could walk and then handed over power to his brother. Personally,i prefer the U S neocons to the hyprocrazy of our socialist pseudos.

Jaludinddin, your comments are true and based on facts and figures. Churchil had said that democracy is necessarily not the best way of governance but there is no better way available.
I can understand and agree with you over disillusionment from democratic rule.But autocracy is not answer to that.
Our democratic system needs a sea-change like two or three party and federal system like USA, More and more independent and strong judiciary, barring criminals from contesting polls, more powers and autonomy to states,upper age limit for MP/MLAs, minimum educational qualifications for contestants etc. If ruling party is in absolute majority,PM/CM becomes a dictator with corrupt and criminal sycophants around him, if it is a coalition then it becomes a SAVE CHAIR govt indulging in all kinds of corrupt practices.
Dictatorship.......!!!!???? Let's make good use of the experience we gained from our neighbours.

DEMOCRACY IN INDIA PALTRY 60 YEARS and utter failure with idiotic caste and religion based politics and stupid LOOT OF PUBLIC MONEY WE PAY AS TAXES.
May be we south asians are NOT SUITED TO DEMOCRACY but we WANT TO BE RULED BY IRON HAND AND DISCIPLINE that kings used to exercise. OLD HABITS DIE HARD.
10,000 years of monocracy , countless kings and kingdoms bears testimony to this fact. We like hereditary sucession , it is in OUR BLOOD due to 10,000 years of such history.

Mr.Jalaluddin, democracy is any day better than monarchy. That is the reason for the uprising against the monarchy even in a small country like Nepal. The litmus test is not whether there was democracy for 10,000 years or for just 60 years. It is how matured the people (and by extension their leaders) are. Democracy is defnitely not a failed experiment in India, though it is so in Pakistan and Bengladesh. And we do not want Saudi style monarchy in our Country!!!!!

In fact democracy has given us goons and looters as rulers. And practically we have been subjected to hereditary monarchy, What is wrong in accepting the facts as they are?
