As I said in my post that you have quoted, that it is always the implementation of democracy that would be at fault and not democracy itself. But in the end, whatever system you incorporate, it is the people who would be the driving force and if they have low morals, then no system would...

How about starting with building the consensus that secularism is the way forward and not Shariah? P.S. Thank you for allowing me to speak.

So why has democracy worked for them? If "taking shots" is your way of dealing with the functioning of a nation, God help you. Democracy itself cannot be at flaw, it is the implementation of it that is flawed, and hence the blame squarely lies upon the implementers, if it has not worked for you.

I strongly differ - not all Muslims but only brainwashed Muslims. However, I am yet to see a consensus on proper understanding of the Koran. I think the problem begins at the very interpretation of Koran. There is strong condemnation of Islam's premises by some ex-Muslims, however, they are...

"Today" we are bursting out the scams only because of the initiatives of the courts and the media. But what can they do? Expose scams and that is it. Ever seen a single politician being convicted for corruption or illegality in the history of this country? We may have busted the real problem...

That is your problem. You consider a few thousand Kashmir valley's deluded people as the only population of Kashmir. They do not constitute Kashmiris alone. Plus, Gandhi fought against Britishers because of the fundamental indifference and superiority complex they had for Indians. In the case...

Exactly my thoughts!

The VHP, alongside the Maoists and separatists and all, have everything in common. They are emotional instigators who defy their own cause by their acts and belie the very foundational ideologies of their faith, thus making themselves irrelevant or at least push themselves in that direction. If...

Corruption, No. 1 national security threat, is eating into the vitals of the state, enfeebling internal security and crimping foreign policy. India confronts several pressing national security threats. But only one of them - political corruption - poses an existential threat to the state, which...

That is your justification? If this incident is hence justified, then by your logic, those incidents would also be? Just so you know, you are getting on everyone's nerves here.

Which intelligence agency are we talking about here?

I don't know of any jehadi group from UP or Bihar. But talking of poverty, there is no reason to believe that Muslims in these parts have been left because of their religion. The poverty is widespread into all religions, Muslims more because of socio-economic history and lack of education. But...

The enmity created and still is maintained is not a product of nationalism or idealism, it is a product of political and opportunist interests. Politicos on both sides use the enmity between India and Pakistan to promote self-interests. Unfortunately, though in the case of Pakistan, the enmity...

According to Jullian Assange, it is for the purpose of greater transparency. I will surely take that with a pinch of salt, but I am more than happy to see secret foreign policies being scrutinized in public, and for the first time perhaps we as common people are able to notice the actual motives...

First you should get it straight that disputed territory does not gives right to any one into the administration of the place. Second, IAK alone is not the disputed territory, IAK & PAK both combined are, and as a bilateral issue, Pakistan only has the right to discuss territorial issue, not...

You seem to be vindicating the article I posted. Where are the private correspondences in this regard? In public, the US has sought to cover up for ISI and that is why this cable holds good. It does not specifically mentions anyone nailing the ISI (for that we already have David Headley's...

Well, here is another Wikileak cable. US wanted to protect ISI image after 26/11 attacks: WikiLeaks

Niaz and T-Faz Who do you look up for capable future leaders of Pakistan, if you can name a few.

Is it coincidence or is it copy-paste? :) ---------- Post added at 02:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:56 PM ---------- And we are very sure that this is not the time for it. Let the people decide what is best for them, will you?

That is what you always do? Blind your eyes and follow the book? That is the work of school going children, and even they manage better. You fail to see the issue in its completeness, but I guess that is nothing to do with your ability, but your interests, as you already have pronounced...
