Because it was Pakistan, with one religion, that "intended" to prosper on the basis of unity of people but it was India that rose above all prejudices against its diversity to become what it is today.<BR/><BR/>What do we do with a failed state? I believe we've shown enough sympathy to them over the years and now it is time we probably learn to "not give a damn" about it being a failed state or not and indulge in supporting our best interests.<BR/><BR/>Leave them to deal with their rot.<BR/></B>Jayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03373808472983278972noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2930410156318236620.post-27943061392972247172008-12-08T23:57:00.000-08:002008-12-08T23:57:00.000-08:00@J P JoshiA failed Pakistan may not be in India's ...<B><BR/>@J P Joshi<BR/>A failed Pakistan may not be in India's best interests, but we are spending too much time and energy on emerging as the subcontinental watchdog that is often stabbed in the back.<BR/><BR/>We need to kneel on our own interests, once and for all. Pakistan is a confirmed sponsor of terrorism, doesn't show any political will against it and is largely under the control of rogue institutions like the ISI.<BR/></B>Jayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03373808472983278972noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2930410156318236620.post-75619050087354731032008-12-08T22:32:00.000-08:002008-12-08T22:32:00.000-08:00This comment has been removed by the author.Jayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03373808472983278972noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2930410156318236620.post-24503191031985158122008-12-08T19:16:00.000-08:002008-12-08T19:16:00.000-08:00Pakistan may be a failed state.

But major elements there are all united in their obsession to "unravel the Indian federation" as on TV commentator there described India after 11/26.<BR/><BR/>Diplomacy is the talk that works if the other party knows that there is a bite to follow if the words are not heeded. Otherwise, the result is what Pakistan has done: keep India tied down in interminable talks while continuing to strengthen and spread its network of terror.Vinod_Sharmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14654167848186778789noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2930410156318236620.post-17715975464285342282008-12-08T14:28:00.000-08:002008-12-08T14:28:00.000-08:00No wonder Jinnah said this to his sister after the...No wonder Jinnah said this to his sister after the partition "We backed the wrong horse" .
