<<Ram:
Why don't you guys put your money where your mouths are and tell ULFA that you might support their cause of Assam's independence, provided:
A:
B:
C;
D:
You fill in the gaps.
If you do that and ULFA still ignores the likes of you, then I would go along with your assessment. Failing which, it is "xaap hoiw khwtisa aaru bez hoiw jaarisa", know what I mean :-)?

Last call to Doubting Thomases- any better ideas?
You know how to reach me.
You bet on my presenting your valued ideas to where it should.
Don't whine any more.
You had the last call.

All we have heard so far is that a group of insurgents want freedom at any cost. They won't give the people (that they are supposedly fighting for) a plan, what kind of governance, or even how they would envision to protect the state once it is free.--Ram

Yes, I agree completely. Labels of any kind don't
amount to much. The Indian political class has only
now started to shed labels. Within those, the ones to
do so thoroughly were the Indian nationalists however.
If the Indian nationalists are green with envy of
China, it is great. At least envy might lead to
something sustainably productive - as opposed to
labeling China's progress as a CIA ploy or some such
thing.
The questions beneath the labels however are
important.
It is important to know what would be ULFA's agenda in
an independent Assam (and that includes how they will
govern, what "freedoms" would be allowed or
disallowed, how will the government be run etc.).
Wouldn't we all expect to get those answers to form a
complete opinion? And wouldn't we be right, in the
absence of any such answers, in determining that this
would spell anarchy, no less?
And no, the Oracle's (Mike Da) monologue, "Main Hoon
Na" is not enough :-)
