The most pro-India and anti-Pakistan piece that I have read in a western newspaper in a long long time. Given the recent disclosure about Pakistan increasing its nuke weapon count, and having about 60 missiles pointed at India, and Musharraf’s comment when he was President that Pakistan would attack India regardless of who attacks it, it comes as a breath of fresh air. Which explains the hundreds of comments on the piece. But then, this is the WSJ, not the NYT, which as Bahl points out, perceives the whole India-Pakistan issue ass first.

"Even if I am a minority of one, the truth is still the truth." — Mahatma Gandhi
"I look upon an increase in the power of the State with the greatest fear, because, though apparently doing good by minimizing exploitation, it does the greatest harm to mankind by destroying individuality, which lies at the root of all progress." — Mahatma Gandhi
"The smallest minority on earth is the individual. Those who deny individual rights, cannot claim to be defenders of minorities." — Ayn Rand
"There are four characteristics which brand a country unmistakably as a dictatorship: one-party rule—executions without trial or with a mock trial, for political offenses—the nationalization or expropriation of private property—and censorship. A country guilty of these outrages forfeits any moral prerogatives, any claim to national rights or sovereignty, and becomes an outlaw." — Ayn Rand
"Contradictions do not exist. Whenever you think that you are facing a contradiction, check your premises. You will find that one of them is wrong." — Ayn Rand
