I would also join you in appreciaitng the views of Abidi . But I would also say with conviction that 99% of the Muslims would think on the same lines as Abidi . Dr Abdul Kalaam possibly a very Good Muslim and a very Good scientist has firmly said that he would go ahead with the N-deal. Progress in India is something that every Indian has a vested interest in .... if he ceases to have that he is like the stupid man chopping away the very same branch on which he is perched on!
