The New Nation - Internet Edition

Dr. Abdul Ruff

"Hello, nice meeting you again, tell me what is happening with your pet Indo-US nuclearism?"

"Hey, I know you are on your old trick of disagreeing with the "official stand"! But you know any one who is against the nuclear deal is anti-Indian?"

"I am not, certainly not! I am 99% pro-Indian. Ask the media people I write only lavishly praising India, Gandhiism and nuclearism". "What about the remaining 1%? Anti-Indian?

"Oh, that is depreciation value loss due to Mumbai finanacial crash last week."

"I specially appease Indian media and bureaucracy by showering in loud clapping for India."

" That may be true, even USA is like that , it would repel any criticism , constructive or otherwise." " I don't konw if India would eventually change the national flag characteristics, by keeping in the latest development in its polices. India could have a flag in blue color with lot of currency notes and nuclear symbols displayed in it".

"I suppose you are not objecting to Indian cricket wings choosing blue, red and green colors for local tournament in Ahmadabad, currently on, with a clear understanding that Blue India team should win the tournament. Green and Red India teams should ultimately lose, you know!"

" I understand Red color is favorite of Sonia Gandhi and Green -- is the choice of others including the Muslim League" Am I right?"

"You mean it has got nothing to do with India's neighbors, Bangladesh and Pakistan?"

"Come on, you read too much in what India does each timetYou should be an ISI man! "Do you say that Raw and IB are less powerful than ISI? Common, friend, you can't be too partial. By the way, ISI seal/mark is not seen in Indian products these days."

" If you read Indian newspapers you will know only about ISI .These poor guys don't remember any thing other than that. That reminds me of the memory loss suffered by US president Bush, figting terror wars in Middle East. He confused ASEAN with APEC and North Korea to mean South Korea and terror for peace, etc. One day, he would say denuclearized world to mean US foreign policy.

"Osama bin Laden seems to be interested in Iraq now. How come the USA is still unable to detect him by using all the latest remote technology at their disposal?" "You mean why President Bush is not stating that Osama is hiding in Iraq along with his WMD?" "India say Al-Queda is Kashmir, how about that?" "Why Kashmiris need independence? They are used to live like slaves so long?" After independence they would be called rogue as well as terrorists in New Delhi."

"But those who fought for Indian independence are called patriots, except the Muslims"

Indian state has a peculiar way of looking at things to their own advantages, like the USA has been doing1"

" Wealth and cash make wonders, you say so" No w India has a lot of cash from privatization and liberalization so they can say any thing and even the Arab countries say salaam to them, yeah!" "What the Americans do is final in every aspect and no one can question them because that would amount to questioning their wisdom. They just can't tolerate criticism, because they say their democracy is finest and tested for spam.(spam less?).The USA defines terrorism thus: the calculated use unlawful violence to inculcate fear, intended to coerce or to intimidate governments or societies in the pursuit of goals that are generally political, religious, or ideological".

"You mean India's word is final for the so many third word nations now? Especially in South Asia?

"Of course, now you have got it all right!" "How could one distinguish between struggle of patriotism and separatism?"

"When you struggle you are separatists or terrorists, but when gain independence, you are elevated to the rank of great patriots. That is all about history freedom movement in the world. Once even USA was a terrorist country seeking independence?"

"USA is not different even now, attacking the Islamic countries with support form anti-"Islamic countries and a few Muslim countries themselves"
