Your Views:If US thinks that they have declared war against terrorism, they are mistaken.In fact they are thrusting their unilateral decisions and thoughts on the world community.For his own survival, Tony Blair is dancing to their tune. US has totally failed in the war against terrorism. They bombed Afghanistan and now forgotten about it. In the process they have killed many a innocent. Now they have turned to Iraq. What right the US has got to dethrone Saddam? US is totally working for its self-interest. For the same reason they are blind to Pakistan's
mischief. US has no right to tell who should rule a country. All muslim nations unitedly warned USA about the military attacks on Iraq. Still USA is not in a position to realise where they stand vis-a-vis Iraq and Pakistan. Indian Government should stop consulting USA about Pakistan and cross border terrorism. We have shown enough patience for the last four decades. Any more restraint will be viewed as weakness. Better get into action and teach a lesson, to remember for ever, to Pakistan.

Your Views:First of all, let us not worry about what's happening with the world when there is fire in our own house. When American WTC Centre was bombed that is when the whole world realised how venomous the terrorist fangs are! What an irony. India has been eaten away by this same cancer called Terrorism since 50 years and the whole world never even bothered to care cos it was India who was on the receiving end.
I don't find the happenings of 9/11 unjust. We shouldnt forget that the people who were behind this hated America to the core. And the reason for their hatred is America's indirect involvment in their woes.America should stop poking around and just mind their business. First they sell the weapons to Israel to fight Palestinians and fake peace negotiations at Camp David along with Ehud Barak.
Lets stop being so philanthrophic and sycophantic. Let's try to sympathize with the every day victims of Kashmir and then try to sympathize with others.
Let's stop this hypocritical diplomacy of making the world realise that we are the harbingers of peace and we are the greatest tolerants of Violence.
Lets fight our own battle against terrorism.Atleast we have a stronger justification to fight

Your Views:The way wind is blowing in Washington DC, it is pretty clear that US would be attacking Iraq, sooner than later! India should not loose this golden opportunity & should spearhead a quick & focussed attack on Pakistan. This limited, Israel-type sharp attack would be very fruitful. From quite some time, India has been viewed as a crying-baby (bullied by a much younger Pakistan!) running to Washington, in vain! This bold attack will also succeed in minimizing (if not, eliminating) the cross-border terrorism. US, with its own war with Iraq won't have much time (& willingness )to meddle.
Hope, 'Vajpayee' turns into 'Vijay-payee' with this master stroke!

Your Views:India should first honour its own people , who have laid down their lives serving and protecting this country. Media should stop running around Uncle Sam's glory and showing India in small light. We have fought more than them, we have more heros to our credit, and let the rewards come out.
The govt in New Delhi should also understand that American sympathy is like crocodile tears,and should be aware of the double game. We stand for truth ,with America or without America,that should what New Delhi should convey, if it is acting in the interest of India, the peaceful citizens and the unsung heros .We should make it clear to the American mind, that approval of dictatorship in Pakistan and denouncing the same in Iraq is unacceptable to us.Imaginary arms of Iraq pose no threat, that the brutal jihadi nuclear, dictator and terrorist Pakistan are more disastrous.
Inspite of knowing fully well, if we run behind Uncle Sam with a napkin in hand is utterly derogatory to the spirit of Indian Freedom and triumph of truth. If America says, they swear by God, let us tell them straight in face that we Indians swear by Truth. We might also contemplate pre-emptive strikes in our war on terror.

Your Views:i find the following odd:
- that India had the Bhopal gas tragedy and US had the dioxin scandal.
- that India had the Bofors and Harshad Mehta scandal and US has WorldCom.
- that India had Monsanto and US had the Taco Bell corn.
does history ever teach us anything?

Your Views:There can be little doubt regarding American double standard in almost every sphere of life. America can at best be a bed partner of India but it will never divorce Pakistan - Pakistan, like a good (but stale wife ) has been providing necessary fodder to America only to see that its basic needs are met. As Laden turned out to be a Frankenstein monster , Pakistan will do the same to Amercia at the opportune time. India needs to understand that America- Pakistan is a relationship of compromise and convenience and cannot ( and should not) be obstructed. India needs to talk to America as 'equal' partners and concretise investment plans and all other such deals. But it needs to tell one thing for clear - do not interfere in our bilateral issues. We can solve our own issues in the way which circumstances will feel is best. Let America understand, respect and encourage the independence, sovereignty and self respect ( in spite of various limitations) of India. This will be a bit difficult for America to digest because all nations which are willing or are already bed partners of America have already spoilt its habits.

Your Views:No country will help India.
We have to fight for our interest. We are wasting time in waiting for others to understand our problems. Whatever is to be done is by our leaders, united and firm decision against enemy. Intermediation will not at all help Pakistan and India. A common man really is not aware what points are to be considered before taking any action. Views of majority of common people are to be taken seriously and leaders should progress on it. The only action we take is to reserve funds in budget for defence purpose.

Your Views:America is a two faced snake, it sanctions Iraq and kills children by the lakhs and nobody is bothered, a few thousands are dead and the world has to sit up becos Americas Pride is hurt.The same very terrorists that the funded and continue to fund are turning against them. The same is their attitude with our country India. Why cant they levy sanctions against Pakistan? Why cant they call it a terrorist state? Becos they dont have the guts as their arms & ammuntions factories will close down. Do they consider Indians Fools? Our politicians maybe as they are corrupted to the core, they will sell theirs souls for a dollar. It is imperative that the stick has to be used against an errant child otherwise it will take its parents for granted, hence a sound beating is necessary without doubt. If America is iinterested in becoming a watchdog let it be so, we are aware that they are wary of us, that Indians are smarter, have the guts and will fight to the death.They are interested in creating bases around the world and behaving like big bullies, whatever for?? Like the facade of the Gulf War becos to get free oil. Hope & pray to God that the politicians all over change their attitudes.

Your Views:It is a matter of shame that mr.atal behari vajaypai jee had time to go all the way to USA to wipe tears of the americans even after one year but not even once he has even thought of visiting the refugge camps of kashmiri Pandits in Jammu,or gujrat.
This has once again proved that we are the biggest hypocrites on this earth. new delhi should stop wagging its tail to the whistles of usa and do what has to be done rather than always requesting the usa to help us out.

Your Views:Siding with America or not siding with it has no solutions to our problems with terrorism. Terrorism in the world cannot be generalised. Kashmir problem and Taliban cannot be seen as the same thing. Kashmiris are our own people and Indian government is accountable to them. If Indian government is unable to convince Kashmiri people then it only means it has failed to gain legitimacy. Without love of people no nation can survive nor should it survive that way through force. I think even today if we are not sick of hearing about War then there is fundamentally something wrong with all of us. We are perhaps building sick civilisations. Terrorism has become an excuse to supress all dissent and legitimise undemocratic behavior of the State.

Your Views:Two centers of terrorist are Pakistan and S-Arabia and USA speaks their language due to her own-compulsions.So India has to fight it all alone.Pakistan due to its own economic and political compulsions has to (beyond-doubt)promote terrorism against India.
Thus India, to be heard and effective, should fight it all alone and mode has to be military.Other supports will automatically follow. But millitary option has to be timed, such as a situation like 9-12-01, attack.Let Kashmir issue be discussed on the international arenas, action should be unilateral and military. End is more important than means, and might is heard better.
