Re: India-US Relations : News and Discussion

shreeman:"My readings could well be leading me wrong, but it seems a non-story to me. The system leans baki, one RR or another makes no difference." Ditto. RR will be replaced with some new but with similar instructions as given to RR. Seems clear if we consider that US made a drama about ...

Re: Afghanistan News & Discussion

"I am surprised that Ghani's tilt towards Pakistan is not being discussed here. This is a setback for Indian interests. What does this mean for Indian interests in that region." I have wondered about this. Ghani was backed by the US so he would sign the BSA, and the US knew fully well that...

Re: Why is "Hindu Nationalism" spoken of in a pejorative sen

Peter:"No. Our actions are determined by how strong a personal faith we have in our dharma. " I am not sure I understand what this means. Dharma is not faith and having faith in Dharma without upholding it is useless. A more accurate statement would be "Our actions determine whether o...

harbans:"He/she ends up flummoxed but i've never seen a single debater saying exceptions to the rule do not define the rule. OTOH I have seen the contrary sadly." Just noting that the pro-islamist crowd that usually fakes "moderation" does exactly that while defending islam -- &q...

Re: Why is "Hindu Nationalism" spoken of in a pejorative sen

RajeshA: "but rather by our "ethics", by Dharma, which may be a subject of treatment in our scriptures, but it is not subordinate to anythiing there. It exists independently." I think something close to this sentiment is the subject matter in "Waking up: spirituality without...

Re: Why is "Hindu Nationalism" spoken of in a pejorative sen

Shiv,"I find this a pathetic state of affairs. Neither the seculars nor the Hindutvavadis have any clue why one is calling them bad and the other is accepting that label. How profoundly stupid." Sir, IMO, This has to be a matter of being trained to think that "nationalism" is bad...

Gagan:"Will the chinese drop deep nuclear related, clandestine engagement with the Pakistanis in return for expanded economic trade opportunities in India?" More likely China will do both things at the same time. Why do one or the other, when you can do both? It is not like China even has ...
