I think i will still watch India and Pakistan area with caution. There is still hatred in the two countries and they often strike unexpectadly(sp?)
As for Israel and Palestine i see a war is more and more likely as time goes by, Hatred appears to be growing instead of dissipating. :( :(
At least this has been a much stronger step. And if the public opinion is taken into account, these measures should improve and increase. There was talk of reinitiating trade ties with Pakistan too.Quote:

India being a democracy, I think a good public opinion should go a long way to force the government to improve the relationship. While in Pakistan, although it's not a democracy, hopefully people will not support fundamentalists who portray India as the enemy. Apart from the insurgency in the J & K, there really is nothing as an issue between the two countries.
As far as the Palestine conflict is concerned, I fear that they will wipe each other out very soon. An eye for an eye won't work at all in improving the relationship.

I've been sitting here downloading videos of the aircrafts flying into the buildings for a while. Have you seen the se HB & Wally?
Watch them if you can. It's an emotional thing to watch (hopefully whether or not you're an American). Two of the tallest buildings in the world obliterated out of total hatred.
To prove what? Al-Qaeda has made no demands (as far as I'm aware) for the USA, but they'll continute to attack and we'll continue to retaliate.
Seen 'em to death. Also seen footage of Ira bombings, ETA bombings, footage of various attacks, destitute people, the horrors of WWI and II, the Rwanda genocide etc ...
So please refrain from playing the emotional card and stop insulting my intelligence by suggesting I wasn't moved or that I don't know what goes on in the world.
tell it like it is partner:D :D
