>Rakesh. QED.
We weren't the only ones visited by Mr. Rhone. I got curious and found this from last month at 3 Quarks Daily. One good thing that came of this for me is I'd never heard of 3 Quarks Daily before. It looks interesting.
This is a response to Mr. Ali, as in Tariq:
Dear Mr. Ali,
I remember well how you told the world that India should look to its own Muslims rather than Pakistani outfits after the Mumbai attack. I did not appreciate that. You seem to me to be overly apologetic for what the ISI props up in the name of security interests. Moreover, you and the left put much too much faith in regional negotiations as a panacea. The forces that ISI has backed are intent on disrupting any such process because its outcome can't be trusted to meet Pakistan's so called legitimate security interests; these forces have to be met with force. And it's better that it be NATO's force rather than India's that wields the counter-force. Your track record is not so good, either. You were one of the suckers who bought the utterly corrupt, retrograde and demonic Milosevic's story that he was protecting the principles of socialism and public ownership against the IMF; of course no one was benefitting from the privatization of property more than he was. I do not understand what your standing among Western leftists is based on.
