At the point of writing this, I would imagine the public mood in India to be buoyant at the US declaration of war against terrorism. No doubt, reports of terrorist training camps in Pakistan occupied Kashmir having closed down would further enhance the celebratory mood. While many of us would be glad, some openly and others secretly, at the sticky situation Pakistan finds itself in following the American requests for support, it would be way too presumptuous to link the US position with the issue of terrorism in Kashmir. Before we try to arrive at some conclusions, it would stand us in good stead to try and understand the American mindset. I, for one, have been trying to gauge the public mood in US since the Tuesday attacks. Not one American I have met has talked about Kashmir, and the way the Americans had remained silent observers for years on end. Nor is there even an iota of acknowledgement about the Indian war against terrorism. rediff.com
