Comments on: Afghan Stability and India http://www.pkhope.com/afghan-stability-and-india-2/ A Candid Blog Fri, 18 May 2012 01:36:23 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.7 hourly 1 By: Vinod http://www.pkhope.com/afghan-stability-and-india-2/comment-page-1/#comment-1134901 Vinod Tue, 16 Mar 2010 18:45:09 +0000 http://www.pakspectator.com/?p=22286#comment-1134901 While the author raises some legitimate concerns regarding India's role in Afghanistan, there is no denying that this is a sensationalist and biased account of what's going on there. For one thing, the author ignores the fact that an unstable Pakistan or Afghanistan is not in India's interest. Unstable countries breed terrorists and India will be the biggest loser if this happens. This oversight also ties in with many Pakistanis' refusal to believe that India has moved on since those days of animosity with Pakistan. Anything that goes on in Pakistan these days is at most, third page news. I also wish to point out that any US concerns on India's role in Afghanistan should be taken with a pinch of salt. US interests have lot more to do with an Indian presence in Afghanistan leading to Pakistan focusing more resources on training troops against India than against the Taliban. Its as simple as that. Again, do people really think that the Taliban, which subscribes to a fundamentalist Islamic ideology, would side with a secular/Hindu India to take on a mostly Islamic Pakistan?
