My impression of the situation in India, as regards terrorism and its intersection with politics, is this:
Although there are Islamic extremists and Hindu extremists and a long running dispute with Pakistan over the fate of Kashmir these indisputable facts are being used (perhaps even maipulated to some extent) by Prime Minister Vajpayee's government to justify a host of questionable economic and military activities.
