With all the world's attention on Israel and Lebanon, India has stepped up its rhetoric against Pakistan, a nation with which it has been in four shooting wars in the last sixty years. Should the tanks roll in Kashmir again, how will it play out? The Pakistanis are friendly with China, a nation that has also been at war with India in living memory. Pakistan is also Muj Central.
Interesting times...

ReplyDeleteThink of all the countries that have outsourced their IT and HR services to India. "Your call will be answered in the order it was received". Sometime in, oh, 2008 ?
