War of Words

When are we going to grow up? Will just spewing words around the place help-- the Indo-Pak problem I mean. Vajpayee says something, Musharraf lashes back and brings up something new to debate about. And Vajpayee does the same in reply to the reply. It's going on and on, don't think it will end too soon. Of course, Bush's rather ironical (and hypocritical) comments are superficially noted and then conveniently sidelined.

I don't know who will win this war of words or whether there will be any winner or loser, but what I do know is that Prez Musharraf needs to polish his English vocabulary. After all, he should know the difference between 'armed intruders' and 'terrorists' and 'freedom fighters', right? I'm ready to give him free lessons on the condition that he NEVER forgets them.


Bye Bye India

The media converage of the Pakis leaving India makes the Indian Government sound like a bunch of morons with not a single drop of compassion in their blessed souls; and the people leaving like heroes. So maybe the people who run this country behave like a bunch of morons, but hey, softening up doesn't get you anywhere, at least not these days. And if Big Brother you-know-who toughens up, isn't it time the so-called Gentle Kid also grows up?

As for the people going back to their country, they won't feel homesick anymore.
