In an unusual dialogue that highlights Washington's concerns for the region, senior analysts, retired military officers and former diplomats met in Dubai last week to discuss options of pulling back from the brink of a full-blown nuclear war that would cause massive damage in the eventuality of an exchange of tactical (mini) nuclear weapons. ……………………..

The broad scenario that was followed started from a terror strike in India, in which a former ISI Major is caught, prompting Delhi to ask for the handing over of conspirators.

When Pakistan does not comply, India carries out strikes on military targets in Pakistan-Occupied Kashmir (POK).

This escalates into a full-blown war, in which an Indian armoured column enters Pakistan, which results in a tactical nuclear strike by Islamabad on its own territory to blunt the Indian attack ..……………

Senior analyst Gurmeet Kanwal, who was present at the dialogue, told ET that among the key lessons that transpired from the three-day project was that third-party mediation would be vital for pulling back India and Pakistan from the brink of a full-blown annihilation war as neither India nor Pakistan would back out after a tactical nuclear strike.

"There was a consensus that deescalation would be vital after a limited nuclear strike and that a third-party mediation would be extremely necessary," Kanwal said.

While I understand that "patriotism" cannot be certified and people may feel differently while still having best interests of their country in mind, the conduct of these folks is uncannily similar to Pakistaniyat.

The question is did they get infected with Pakistaniyat before they enrolled in the armed forces, during their service or post-retirement?

Post this first use of a nuclear weapon, India retaliates with a massive scale response by attacking four Pakistani military targets with a tactical nuke. It is at this juncture,

OK, Pakis, let's start with the obvious assumption: you pigs conduct another terror strike and as the whole Duniya knows, it's your government that does these things...

The national grid then can be even more useful for charging car battery at nearest car parking. A lot of forests and forex will be saved with all that solar power.

yeah, after 120 Km drive you will wait for eight hour charging before you drive again.

Having read this, I am still lost on the point that Prof. Martinkich seeks to make. It must be my illiteracy. Is it to highlight just one article pushing one company’s immediate agenda? The Indian government has a Digital India initiative that seeks to bring connectivity to everyone, and to bring government to the people through connectivity. Has the Professor spent some time understanding this initiative, to tell us why that is inadequate, and why the Indian government “should upload government websites onto Internet.org”? Indians cyaint build their own servers and upload their government’s site to that, huh? Does the US government keep IRS, CIS and White House websites on a Chinese ISP? (I am sure that would ensure reliable backup since they must have downloaded all). Lacking these, the article comes across as another patronizing and ignorant diatribe pushing one product. Has the professor tried making a few notes from a few other sources than this one article by Joseph? Finding out facts beyond “In India that’s several hundred million”? – (let me help you with the math: if 3/4 of 1.2 billion have no access, then only 1/4 have – that would be three hundred million, which is more than 2, but a bit less than ‘several’)

Is this what AAUP does? Push one commercial product? Snake-oil sales?

Reminds me of an article back in 1984 titled: “If it took an Indira to rule it, India is no democracy”, predicting and salivating at the imminent breakup of India after the assasination of Prime Minister Indira Gandhi. By Professor Robert Ackerman the Editor of a newspaper in a major American city. As a letter writer remarked then: “Given the access to information that Mr. Ackerman has in the United States, his ignorance of the facts is truly remarkable”.

As for the so-called “debate”, here is an article that examines some of the sources of the anti-Indian Scholiar L.O.S.E.R. Letters etc: Professor Madhav Nalapat, an accomplished journalist and international-affairs scholar writes on the antics of the losing leader of the Nepotist Party in India:

We can get a glimpse on who pays for those $30,000 electronic signs in the Bay area “protesting”. All that deep concern about India appears to be just more paid negative ads by rent-a-protestors. In Pakistan they call it “Lifafa” (cash-stuffed envelope) journalism.

And just as a note: If 300 million Indians already have Internet access, that's as many as the entire population of the USA. Given the huge disparity in per capita incomes/wealth between the USA and India, that at least implies that the cost of Internet access in India is a lot less than it is in the USA. So they should import an American product and surrender their government's websites onto that to reduce costs and increase access for Indians? Has the professor studied the Internet Divide in the USA? Access in, say, the Native American 'Reservations'? In south Texas or Wyoming? Why can't Internet.org bring universal access in the USA so that students all over the USA can access the websites that we have put up at such immense effort? Does this not suggest that the Internet.org business plan is perhaps not all that it claims to be? So doesn't that make the professor's article crass commercial advertising using AAUP resources and his privileged access to those?
