The Indian and Pakistani situation concerns the terrorists like Osama/Mullah Omar etc. who have publicly declared war against the US and continue to preach hatred for US citizens. They are calling for the killing of US citizens. These terrorists are fleeing Afghanistan and moving eastwards into India. There are reports in the press that these terrorists are concentrating in Pakistan-held Kashmir. That is why Bush has now pressured Musharraf to deal with those super terrorists. IMO, we will soon see a flareup there and the noose on these super terrorists will be tightened. Make no mistake that if that happens, you will not see the Arab monarchies go against it because they also want these terrorists liquidated to ensure the stability of their own thrones. Besides, India has good relations with the Arab world as well as with Israel. In fact, Israel I am told is already sharing their expertise on pre-emptive attacks with India. And with the annihilation of the super terrorists, their stooge Arafat will go away and thereby the Palestenian as well as the Pakistani people will get what they have always wanted, namely a clean democratic process to elect their own leaders instead of dictatorial folks like Musharraf and Arafat. Now you may disagree with me on this Gustave, but I am sure if you brush up on your knowledge of politics in the world stage, then you will start to see things this way. In fact, if you do so, you will also have a leg up on Bush/Cheney/Rumsfeld. P.S. India is a non-aligned country and do not have to hire a any PR agency. As I had indicated earlier, India also does not have to come running to the US with "positive proof" that Musharraf is a terrorist or supports terrorism as Sharon did in the case of Arafat. If India moves, they will do so independently and they will have everybody's support not just that of the US. That is one of the benefits of non-alignment.
