Caution is good, but when you become overcautious you just talk yourself into inaction. I never claimed that Hindus should wake up one day and start rioting, but retaliate when atrocities like the present one are commited.

<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->These 'games' do have consequences to the security of our nation (as they have done for others), and they should not be ignored.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->

Sure they do, but it is one thing to play balance of power games, it is quite another to desire, plan, and implement a break up of India.

I have seen no credible source that claims US delibrately airlifted Taliban to infiltrate them into India. And the Newyorker article has presented no concrete evidence, just speculation.

<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->If the US army really makes missteps as catastrophic as this, they are very incompetent. However, I don't think they were incompetent nor that this was an accident.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->

The US Army is not omnipotent. There has been blunder after blunder in the last 50 years, starting with wrong assesment of Chinese involvement in Korea, to the disaster in Vietnam, to Lebanon, to bloody intervention in Somalia, to the present quest for democracy in Iraq as a purely head counting exercise, and with a people who don't believe in the concepts of freedom and human rights. Incompetence dosen't begin to describe it.


<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->But the actual facts are that beyond retaliation in war, the Serbian government, army and military did nothing to make them more uniquely ruthless than those of Croatia and Albania. Yet the media spun fiction after fiction about Serbian atrocities and kept silent about the very real crimes committed by the Albanians and Croatians. And, unlike the Serbian populace, the Albanian populace did partake in the violence which was also entirely absent from news reports.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->

There have been many cases of genocide and ethnic cleansing in the past 50 years, Indonesia, Russia, China, Rwanda, Sudan, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Cambodia, just to name a few. The action against Serbia then is an exception, not the rule. The main reasons for targeting Serbia were,

1) German support for their Croatian cousins
2) Eliminating the last communist dictartorship from Central Europe, and taking away an ally of Russia.
3) The continuation of the old war between Orthodox Christianity and Catholicism, and Western Europeans for the last 500 years have prefered to side with Ottoman Empire and its residents against Slavs/Orthodox Christians.


<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->Then let me ask, how will riots permanently 'secure the Hindu nation'? How will riots stop Islam in a permanent sense<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->

I made it clear that the pattern of riots would be based on Punjab in 1947, and if you know the history of that period, the answers to your questions are self evident.
