We see the Indian media hurling insults at us from their entire social fabric and corridors of power. They call President Zardari “devil’s advocate” (REF CNN-IBN) and then issue invasion warnings. At other times they bully us for severing cricketing and artistic ties. The video shown in their interactive blogs are filled with hate remarks and nothing logical can be ascertained. Their dream of destabilizing Pakistan and limiting ISI in their frantic efforts can be easily fathomed. To conceal the truth they are trying each and every method to degrade Pakistan and at the same time brush the evidence under the carpet. The mutilation of bodies of terrorists is tantamount to destroying proof. Bilateral probe calls and then backing out of any meetings with higher officials is another plot to gain sympathy and turn all anger of the world towards Pakistan.

I wonder if US weren’t so scared of China where would they be! All of this bravado is because US is siding with her so much so that it now seems just another US state. The u-turn from communism to capitalism when the later is on decline in the world is just bad timing. They are anchored to a sinking ship. Being naïve of home grown terrorist activities and Hindu hardliners own hand in such massacres cannot be ruled out so conveniently. The entire ball game is just a media play and to gain political mileage.

I wonder why our leaders keep saying both countries should resolve the matter collectively when they have refused to accept any help or to provide any evidence to us. Is it not vivid what their agenda is? I would call for restraint. A Pakistani can never compromise on dignity and respect just to give a foxy appearance of a coward by showing poise and calm.
