Jaswant Brand Cocktail Party Diplomacy in Smithereens
It is India that stands isolated and not Pakistan.
All those lies about foreign policy successes in isolating Pakistan are nailed.
Jaswant and Vajpayee have been taking all of us for a ride.
The great strategists of MEA (Ministry of External Affairs) have failed again. All their monkey exercises have drawn a blank. Earlier when they tried to equate India with China and present her as a more dependable ally of the US, none paid heed. They went out of their way to please the US and have Pakistan discredited in the eyes of Americans, they failed again. Now in an anxiety to please the US this way or that, they are throwing all caution to wind, compromising this nation's self respect. There is something very cheap, undignified, and servile in the way these guys are handling the present crisis. Jaswant and Vajpayee are literally begging the Americans to somehow keep India in picture while they prepare for their military adventure in the subcontinent.
On the other hand, Pakistan strikes a lucrative deal and strengthens her partnership with the US. This means more money for the terrorist groups operating in Kashmir. ISI may dump Laden. The ISI elements among Taliban forces will ultimately support Pakistan.
The focus of terrorism is likely to shift to India. Anti India terrorist groups have never been anti US. They have all along wished the US to intervene in Kashmir matters. Hurriyat Conference will be rejoicing at the turn of events as it may be seeing the increased role of the US in the matters concerning the Indian sub-continent.
Vajpayee and Jaswant make all Indians look like undignified fools.
We have never had such a weak kneed and ineffective leadership. We wonder how the US and the west would have treated the Indian subcontinent if a leader like Indira Gandhi would still be alive? We certainly won't have been treated so shabbily.
The US will enhance its role in world affairs as the global cop. We cannot be sure of the resolve of the US to fight the menace of global terrorism. It is clear now that Bush is out to settle old scores and is going to act entirely for partisan US interests. Whereas, the real fight against terrorism should be based on humanitarian principles alone and not on political compulsions and conveniences.
Khullamkhulla condemns attacks on Sikhs, Muslims, and other minorities in the US cities. This too is terrorism. It is worst form of terrorism to harass and kill poor and weak minorities. It cannot be tolerated in a civilized society. We would like to know what the US is going to do about its racist extreme right groups who consider themselves as the real inheritors of America.
We also wonder at the mindset of our people. We have rarely seen school kids coming out and protesting against dastardly terrorist attacks on hapless and poor civilians in Kashmir valley. And look at the things now. Everyone is going out of his/her way to protest vociferously against terrorist attacks in the US. Do we really think Indian lives are cheaper and inferior?
Take out processions and protest against the brutal murder of Balbir Singh by the racist bastards. The Americans who have perpetrated this heinous act should be caught and hanged. Let us see the resolve of the US government and the cowardly Vajpayee government in this case. Shame on racist Americans. All Indians, Asians, Arabs and other minorities should unite and fight against covert discrimination of racist American cowards.
