Dr.Manmohan, and ertswhile ballsy party called Congress is re-discovering its long lost balls. Thank God. I am happy.

It would have hurt me and my beliefs, as well as 1000's of Tibetians living all across India in their settlements reminscing their homes. They have made little tibets in parts of India which looks nothing like Tibet. It would have been hard tight slap on their face and their trust on India and its ideals if they those PLA goons were allowed to run in India. This doesnt mean that I support someone disrupting the Torch relay. I rather it was not held in India at all. But Chinese should understand very well were our loyalities lie, loud and clear. Tibetians and Indians alike should protest, and also boycott all products endorsed by all our famous stars running with the torch. Both Amir Khan and Sachin Tendulkar, who I have held in High esteem; have lost quite a bit of respect in my heart. India is not any other country, but the second home of tibetians. We should honour that. It is their home as much as it ours.

On Thursday, 600 police will run in two files on either side of the road to protect the torch. The inner ring will be manned by Chinese commandos, supported by the National Security Guard.

Sachin Tendulkar is not running because of his groin!

Amir Khan is an overrated punk and why he is not running is well known even though, as per him, his heart bleeds for the Tibetan!! He has to remember that Tibetans love films and are fun loving like all hill people and see a film many a time! Box Office is an important consideration!

Actually, no one would have bothered about Tibet if it were not for the fact there are so many Tibetans in India including His Holiness The Dalai Lama and so sympathy does rub off when one hears their sad fate!

Who does not care for refugees who have lost their home and are culturally totally different and who have done such a sacrifice to make them acceptable in the land of their refuge!!

Anyone with a heart, not made of stone, would sympathise with the Tibetans.

Communists, everywhere, are opportunists.

Double speak and pious peace on their lips and a dagger under their armpits!!
