Okay -- who here has a good understanding of the machinations in India? The
reading I've been doing keeps referring to Ghandi's as the "Congress" and
sometimes "Congress Communist" Pary. I have yet to see Vajpayee's "party"
named
or labeled. It looks like his sectarian attitude towards the Muslims may be
replaced by a more open attitude on the part of Ghandi -- I'm wondering how
seriously this could affect/help the Kashmir situation? It amazes me the power
the name "Ghandi" has even though she was foreign-born and daughter-in-law only
of Indira. I suddenly realize that I have sadly neglected the history of
India, in my quest to understand what's going on in the ME. <sigh> I need a
photographic memory. or something.
