Dear Mario, Who said the partition of India was fair? Did I say or suggest? I entirely agree with your next sentence above. But am quizzed that you still seem to hold a brief for the British mandate ... by extension, to their doling out lands to the Sauds and Sheiks, which almost a century later led to Saddam invading Kuwait. (Now, before you ask me to build a crusade against the Brits or the Sauds or the Sheiks, kindly be informed that I support neither war nor terror.) -Valmiki _______________________________________________ Goanet mailing list [email protected] http://lists.goanet.org/listinfo.cgi/goanet-goanet.org
