Terrorist problemsBy: Don Mistry | Thursday , 4 Dec '08 11:01:16 AM Reply | Forward Dear Sir,As per my point of view terrorist comes from pakistan..But history of India is they always catch terrorist when they comes to India.My question is why they are not trying to catch them in pakistan.There numbers is not more.just some effort is needed by our leader..why India is showing quietness..if they (terrorist) is not thinking good then why we think good for them..another thing i want to suggest that if India catch them then encounter immediatly..if they do not encounter then after some time they will hijack something and harf in future to relive them.. so enemy should by killed by us immediatly then other terrorist will take lesson from us that what can happen it they will do some thin..right now they are thinking India will not do anything even if they do everything. so please put my messege there whery all leader can see..thanking u...

We are inept !By: Rajesh | Tuesday , 2 Dec '08 21:14:48 PM Reply | Forward As posted by Obama, we lack leaders to provide our country Leadership. We are used to electing ineffective, inefficient "brown saheb's" as our so called leaders and in turn they continue to appoint equally inefficient and ineffective bureaucrats to head various departments in the country that are obliviously run in-effectively. In other words, as things stand today, our country and us as its citizens are in-effective, inept, emotional morons letting our political classes keep us divided in the name of caste. We will remain ineffective and inept as a nation till we get united within our country.

Follow American Advice.By: sadandava | Tuesday , 2 Dec '08 18:07:33 PM Reply | Forward No American President is allowed to think and say what he feels right, he is like a parrot, he simply reads the comments, speeches that his political speech writer., or an advisor ... a neo-con has written-- the only qualification that Reagen had was his ability to read very well any speech that was written for him ( he was an excellent film actor after all and knows his scripts) and he survivied as the most powerful politician of the world for 8 years, so why not Obama, he can do much better and do better marketing and selling american products and services including advices to countries like India, India will eventually go to dogs by following american advice and strategy.Watch out India. American have a lot of private axes to grind, they are the world's biggest Machiavellians, look at the way they created immense lies and deceit to destroy Saddam Hussein simply because he insulted their President ( Senior Bush) and in the process 12 lacs Iraqis lost their lives.

Obama's Hidden Agenda?By: Musahitam | Tuesday , 2 Dec '08 17:53:40 PM Reply | Forward It is absolutely okay to try hard to get the real masterminds

Let India RetaliateBy: musahitam2 | Friday , 5 Dec '08 3:58:47 AM Reply | Forward It is absolutely okay if Obama suggests to India to try hard to get the real masterminds, the kingpins and the planners of a terrorist attack which killed the innocent and hang them in public but an organised State crime in retaliation is wrong. What America did after 9/11 tragedy was the biggest State Crime in the modern political history of the world.. Israel does much worse than that . . It is a well known fact in the modern world history that American armament industry loves to see two nations go to war simply because as the coffin maker has no business if no one dies, the same way the expensive American armament industry can not do business if countries are in peace.. Well India can send if they want some brave men and kill an equal number of top ranking Pakistani police officers, give advanced notice to the occupants of a one or two hotels and then destroy the hotels, if you want an eye for an eye, go for it, but we can not quench the eyes of ten thousand in retaliation for the loss of 200. as Obama is presumed to suggest.

Lack of courage and leadershipBy: Obama | Tuesday , 2 Dec '08 17:28:58 PM Reply | Forward The present government has no courage on this.. Atleast BJP would have shown that. That too when the US president supports this.... India will never get such opportunity in history on attacking pak... time is ripe now... go on and you have green signal for pak raid now...

Lack of courage and leadership.By: Gautam Kantharia | Tuesday , 2 Dec '08 18:14:32 PM Reply | Forward We have seen BJP's performance when Parilament, Akshardham,Raghunathji temples were attacked. BJP promised many things but did nothing. Congress to has no back bone to stand up and be counted when it comes to dealing with Pakistan.

GUTS!By: Vinod Dawda | Tuesday , 2 Dec '08 17:16:31 PM Reply | Forward Does India have the guts? US after 9/11 went after Saddam with no proof. India has plenty of proof and reasons but no guts.

Guts?By: Khushminder Sahasi | Tuesday , 2 Dec '08 19:17:16 PM Reply | Forward India has plenty of Guts.At this time people are jelous of Inda's economic success. By going to war with Pak on terror issue would mean succumbing to their plan. We must win this war with reason and by showing solidarity and keep good work of economic elevation of masses in India. Manmohan Singh can tackle this very well. Give him support.K Sahasi
