If our govt ever had spine this situation would never have arised and we would not found ourselves at the mercy of every country in this world...be it US or Pak or Bangladesh. The only times when our govt showed courage were during the 71 war, when Rajiv Gandhi authorized dropping food supplies over Jafna and during the nuclear tests. But then why blame the govt, after all we've been electing these people again and again or is it that we Indians are too timid and weak to even defend ourselves?
