Thanks Tony I share your view that war should be avoided and if we can vent out in any other way our frustrations that is the way for civilised people, I hope we can tell them to write to vent their frustrations, like we all do here. One thing in human relationship is that we all cannot agree on a single point agenda but if we can agree on a broad consensus that avoids unnecessary pain and conflict and death to envelop our differences, the nations who have done that have survived nations who don’t fall into the trap of disaster, even major empires who have misjudged strength in our recent contemporary history have been grinded fine by this natural law not to press advantage far in excess of your capabilities. Bigger powers are more magnanimous more tolerant and able to handle the weak in a manner that they achieve their goals without disturbing their survival, this is the challenge India faces today, it is the question of haves dealing with the have-nots, you make a slight misjudgement and you add all those problems on your head to solve, you will not be able to extricate form them rather the day after the fall the things will not look any better but far worse, sometime it is better to show the stick and withdraw when the stakes are high enough that may shake the very foundation of humanity, nations who care for life are not weak but are great, brave nations become great because they have restraint and fortitude to take pain, smaller nations who try ot keep going about the business of war and useless engagements wither out.
