Hello Jacob, <<India ... BJP Party is trying to weld India together, with a radical (and bloody) redefinition of Indian Nationalism ... Does this sound like a workable plan?>>

India may work out OK when/if they change the the above script as described by you. To be frank, I have not followed India since I sold out of their bank shares, and so I am no more aware than the average Economist reader.

If your script is true to the situation, then I do not think it will work out based on your described plan of xenophobic exclusions and militant religious activism, else the Middle East should be economically booming.

One cannot engage the global market place of money and demands without embracing the world as it is, unfiltered by religious dogma and uncorrupted by hate.

Chugs, Jay

Hello Jacob, TeoTwawKi Watch:

ASEAN, that weird construct of the cold war, meant to contain China, is in the news again, doing what must be done:

news.bbc.co.uk
"Under the deals signed by China and Asean, a vast free-trade area of 1.7 billion people is envisaged by 2010.

Adding India and Japan to the grouping would expand it to cover almost half the world's population."

news.bbc.co.uk
"Leaders from 10 South East Asian nations have signed a non-aggression treaty with China."

Global democracy of multilateral decision-making and planet-wide freedom from uni-polar approach is in the making.

For those folks troubled by "Old Europe", finding Euro Zone diplomatically, economically and philosophically troublesome, they may dislike the direction of these recent "New Asia" trends even more.

Chugs, Jay
