Both Left and congress better be divorced.
Now Govt can do things which it was not doing ( economic changes etc and major policies not carried out due to left). There is more than sufficient time to these things. Which will be good for indian people as they can see themselves which things give results and they can pick up party on basis of performance than slogans.
Also Rahul Gandhi is old enough and will get chance to lead India if so then congress party will get second pole to coagualte around second gandhi. Mrs gandhi will be slowly getting old and if problems of succession are are solved can give stability and courage to regional satraps and inspire them , Gandhis are like flag ( like bhuttos). and people gather around to protect and party will flousrish. Now its up to Rahul generation to carry on legacy and hopefully produce a child or or two ( safety factor). I wonder he has some "problems" or what. I heard he has some problems and he avoids taking treatment as opposition will jump on. His problems can have effect on pakistan as who rules india affects neighbour. Hopefully Bilawal Bhutto has more children to b ring stability to pakistan. It is so fascinating to watch ruling families and their leading lights and their future wives as finally all depends on new childrens. We may not have everythings things as usa but some things are only possible in Desi lands.

Re: # 89 Parthaab...... I did not follow that word. And you are right I have no good idea about many things. I should not write even about things , am ignorant of. All are aware the male female marriage is very difficult always its like driving car always controlling and prone to crashes. As men have been cruel to women , women have been cruel and some times in west they can shield by laws which favor them and can take revenge. A simple allegation of child abuse can lead to man in jail withnout much problem. Women are also abusive specially mentally and economically in west. Some students who deceived me by not paying and went to usa were punished by allah through their earlier wives. I did not feel their life is destroyed by evil women and not much can be done as laws are framed under unsaid assumption of men are guilty.
I am not aware men movements in pakistan as it will be shame to belong to such organization as man is supposed to be beating and tormrnting women.
Now i am also abused by daughters. They do not ask me any thing or consult me about their children and always say I do not understand. My younger daughter use to tell me to shut up as I do not know nothing about modern world. Daughters are like watering far away neighbors garden some times I feel. I have stopped telling anything but listen to stupid thinngs they tell on telephone. Really old age you learn tounderstand all is to forgive all.
If I said some thing it only inadvertently without malice.
Good morning, good day to all.

Re: # 77 Meiji Baby :)
"I am not asking you to sell them, merely exchange them."

You seem determined to cut a deal but I really don't deal in religious junk! Besides I can't exchange inanimate junk for your real men!

The folks you want are 'aloo-qeema' (ask the New York axeman) or Q-cumbers (if you ask me). The Indian Rupee is stronger than the Pak one but you may start bidding, let's say: batees Rupay aaTh anay (32.5 Rupees) 'sikka raij al-waqt' (currency of our time) per Q-cumber?

"These (Deos & Brels) guys are truest Muslims, no?"

Truest? From which angle? Islam is not 'lota, manjan, and surmah'! Exactly what do two million 'true' Muslims achieve in Raiwind each year?

Islam is non-stop action.

Re: # 67 ahmedmadani saheb,

There is a phrase in Hindi, that goes 'Koop mandook'. But you dont seem to know about the mens rights movement in Pakistan itself, and think it is an 'India specific phenomenon'! So how do you claim to know how villagers in India behave?

Males, please support the mens movements in your own country! Dont wait for injustice to reach you first!

Re: # 85 DM this is the kind of psycho-babble which did it in the 1920-30s-40-50-60s for the indians.....Sikh, Punjabi Muslims, et al are all now Indians in heart mind body and soul- very different W.Poonjabi muslims and Pathans and the Sindhis and the Baloochs who are all ethically different nations

Re: # 81 There is a song from Anokhi Raat - mile to kaantein se dosti karli or something like that....(its there on the UP thread). This was a song my partner was singing when the news broke out...and iwas told it was apt for the occasion...

eklavya:

Yes, I can think of Sikhs, Punjabi Muslims and Pathans whose dosti is always "achhi" but not their "dushmani". Indira Gandhi could have told you that; they remained faithful to her even during the Emergency, but when she made them her enemies, her own bodyguard turned against her.

Ekalavya, I was reading DM and just I wanted to respond I saw your response ...DM's response reminded me of a song from way back in the mists of time (he will know it...)

raahi naye-naye rasta naya-naya tum na badalein main na badala sab-kuchh badal gaya raahi
naye-naye yaad suhaani bachapan ki patthar pe khinchi rekha pahalaa-pahala pyaar dilon se mitate
nahin dekha tuufaan samay ke bujha na sake dip jala to jala tum na badalein vaqt ke saath badal
jaaye use pyaar nahin kahate jo har mod pe mud jaaye use yaar nahin kahate yaar vahi jo saathi ban
kar dukh mein saath chala - 2 tum na badalein

"na inki dosti achhi, na inki dushmani achhi"

DM Ji, are there some other countries jinki dosti achhi hai, ya jinki dushmani achhi hai?

arjun:

The difference is that now the US President is bound by the US legislation to take action. I do agree however that things are not that clear-cut.

It is Iran today and could be another country or issue tomorrow. Frankly, my opinion re. the US is: "na inki dosti achhi, na inki dushmani achhi". You need them but you don't want to be in too tight an embrace with them.
