Dear All,
This posting, in fact, is the first in my life. I just came across a web page of a French reporter, who had served as Political Correspondent to India for some 8 years. His name is François Gautie. His views of our country are completely different. I especially liked his article on Suppressing Indian History. Nothing personal against any religious fraternity, but what he has written is an eye opener to the conventional "meek" Indian...
In fact, this article that I am referring to, is not meant to be read just by an Indian, but it tells every loyal citizen of a country on how to boldly face his / her own country's history. The author, with simple example of Germany and Jews, explains how standing up to the truths of our history solves most complex problems on earth. Does this lead anywhere towards a solution to the "eternal" Indo-Pak Border issue? Do write back your comments.

That was a good one. The crux is in this line "Guilt in the culprit and forgiveness in the victim"
Hope you have more stumbles and bring things to light.
