Advani slams Nehru's foreign policy on China, Pakistan in his blog

[Awesome]

bro..............you very well know what I wanted to say..............

well certainly Mr.Rehman malik ji do say something about India.

Plz correct me If I am wrong

Also I am saying about day to day politics...............not politics during elections

Saying something critical about India and saying like "We should keep up stiff enmity with India" are two different things.

What Indian ministers are arguing for is to maintain hostilities against Pakistan.

This is getting from annoying to stupid .. a battle hardened parliamentarian like Advani should know better to work towards the future and not whine about something that happened 40 odd years back.

Well that might be ur thinking that Indian ministers wants to maintain hostilities with Pakistan but as a Indian I see it different way.

Bro, Indian govt. even tried to ignore Pakistan many times than also pakistan ministers were speaking this and that................India is shy etc etc.

and can you plz explain ur first statement................sorry wasnt able to understand what you wanted to say??? thanks

From Pakistan's point of view, we prefer crazy Hindu fundos in power in India. During BJPs tenure, India was easily manipulated as the bad guy since they huffed and puffed much louder than the Mullahs of Pakistan. Mullahs in Pakistan never win a seat, but their counterparts in India form governments.

IN pakistan, its good that Mullahs dont win seats but then you have your dictators to contend with...

From the war scenario, It has been the "peaceful" congress that has always gone to war with Pakistan, not the hardliners.

Very astute observation. Never thought of that explicitly myself..

While its true that the BJP was out maneuvered by Pakistan, as compared to several diplomatic wins of the Congress over Pakistan, it should also be noted, the BJP were up against a popular Musharraf and the Congress have an unpopular Zardari to contend with.

Not really.. BJP dealt with Musharaf from 1999 end till early 2004. and Congress from early 2004 to mid 2008. So more or less the same period..

But you are right in the sense that post Musharaf, the Pakistan has been out maneuvered more frequently and much more easily. I however think this has more to do with a style contrast between fledgling democracy vs single minded dictatorship and less with the popularity of the presidents..

EDIT: Asim, i am not able to see Sapere aude mentioned against your name and only see some gibberish..Is that a change at your end or some font issue at mine??

Asim, you wield a wide brush and paint all of BJP led govts in the same color.

Frankly I don't think you should talk about Indian domestic political parties. Your statements reveal your lack of knowledge on the subject.

The BJP was never in power as single party but as a leader and member of a coalition. And the people you call crazy hindu fundoos are all educated statesmen (Advani included), much better than any zamindar politician or illiterate Mullahs ever produced in your country. True they have their black sheep like Modi and are still paying the price for not coming down hard on such men. They havn't been able to form a govt. at the center ever since the Gujarat pogrom.

And if BJP had Gujarat the Congress had 1984 anti-Sikh riots and Babri. So there's not much to choose from the two.

You can't really compare Congress rule and BJP rule. The former was in power for 40 of the 60+ post independence years whereas BJP's coalition for hardly 6 years.

And what manipulation are you talking about? Ahh...the backstabbing of Kargil I presume. Or the exchange of your dreaded terrorists like Massod Azhar and Omar Sheikh during the Kandahar hijacking. Good lingo you use there!

Please don't compare BJP with any Islamic party of pakistan.BJP is a proper democratic party.

Anybody critisizing BJP should look at Gujrat.It's developing Infrastructure real fast and attracting billions of $$ investments. Infact different states are emulating Gujrat development model.

Also being a democracy we need a strong opposition to keep congress govt on toes.
