It is another New Year. A lot of good wishes from anyone and everyone to anyone and everyone. But alas, if only wishes were horses!
There are so many wishes for a common man today, the world over in general and in India in particular. What the West is thinking is of coming out of the Recession. Indians are worried of terror attacks, and natural calamities, of rising food prices. Are these wishes likely to be zoomed in?
Pollution is on the rise. May be, the recession will also reduce to some degree the intensity of pollution. The only silver line in these dark clouds!
In India, as an Indian, I want a strong Indian state, capable of protecting itself and its interests, in stead of looking at the world community (implying the USA) for the same. Why, and how, the US asks India to depend on Pakistan to against the terror roots while it had the audacity of attacking Afghanistan (and also Iraq for that matter)? And, why India is listening to it? It is not desirable to attack Pakistan. A war is not the in-thing today. But this does not prevent one from attacking a hostile training camp situated inside a not-so-friendly country. Israel has survived the Arab hostility this way only.
Wish, India acts.
