The Aiyar-Asaram school of thought
by Rishi Thu Jan 17, 2013 10:45 pm
Consider Aiyar’s attitude towards Pakistan. The government and people―at any rate, a large section of people―of Pakistan may be determined to wipe India off the map. It’s a lie that terrorism in our western neighbor is the handiwork of a ‘handful’ of mad mullahs; it’s a lie mouthed by Left-libbers like Aiyar. For, if they don’t peddle such mendacity, they would not be able to run the multi-million dollar peace industry.
So, Aiyar asserts that the dialogue with Pakistan should be “uninterrupted and uninterruptible.” The Pakistanis aid and arm jihadists, send terrorists to slaughter our citizens, torture our soldiers, bomb our cities, attack our Parliament, and even refuse to acknowledge any wrongdoing. But we should continue the dialogue regardless of their unconscionableness. Someday, somehow, they will develop a conscience; we shall wait for that day.
Like the communist theoreticians who never tell the faithful when would the ideal classless society dawn, Aiyar refuses to tell us when would the Pakistanis mend their ways. When asked by television anchor about the suitability of the ‘peace process’ in view of the incident in which the head of a killed Indian soldier was chopped off by Paki thugs, the Nehruvian leader said that it was to avoid the recurrence of such incidents that the process should continue.
Hope springs eternal in the human breast―at least in Aiyar’s heart. The hope is about corrigibility of every human heart―even of those who pierced the eyes and ears of Capt Saurabh Kalia, beheaded the jawan and took the head as a trophy, and butchered the innocent people in the 26/11 attacks. Someday, somehow, they will develop human sensitivities.

Ayyo! (Or should that be iyO?) I know some Bengali people who say the same thing about people who insist on spelling their names Chattopadhyaya and Gangopadhyaya instead of Chatterjee and Ganguly. I guess one of his long-lost ancestors chose the English transliteration of their family name.MaxEntropy_Man wrote:anyone who spells his name aiyar instead of iyer must be anal retentive.
As for the article, I wonder what this multi-million dollar peace industry is about. What does it produce and sell? Peace missiles and peace planes?

Haha, no. But if you spend enough time in Delhi, you will see the NGOs of every stripe, populated by superannuated academicians, bureaucrats and former journalists - all seeking to do good, with the sincerest of intentions, holding forth (at length) on their utopian views at workshops, seminars and conferences held round the year in five star hotels and of course, the IIC. The reference to the multi-million dollar industry is a modern-day version of `the foreign hand' that funds all these lovefests.
While peace is always a good idea, it is also prudent to remember that the state of Pakistan was founded as the anti-India. Their raison d'etre is the failure of the Indian state. Their army has made innumerable attempts to recover face after their drubbing in '65 and '71. Today, that nation is a basket case. Their economy is down the tubes. Their society is rife with iniquities worse than in India and levels of violence that show all signs of worsening. The only topic on which all Pakis agree on is how evil Hindu India is. Democracy might be gaining roots there, but IMO, Islamic fundamentalism is even stronger. Even if they miraculously avert an Islamic revolution, this country is many years away from producing a strong democratic government that is fully in control of all arms of the state.
Until then, there will only be chaos. What's the point negotiating peace with a bunch of random talking heads who don't control anything and may not even hold their governmental positions a few months down the line? Making concessions in return for nothing is the stupidest barter one could go for. I'm glad public opinion forced Manmohan "u're-my-brother-na-my-house-is-ur-house-na" Singh to backtrack on all those unilateral "confidence building measures" he was so desperate to push through.

Mani Iyer Khan loves PakiSatan! He wanted to talk to them right after 26/11 and now after the beheading. He also likes to re-invent Indira's socialism. His pastime is to entertain Pakis who visit India. He wonders why he is no longer a minister!

Whatever I have read of Mani Shankar Aiyar doesn't impress me. He thinks he is a walking encyclopedia on Pakistan just because he was the first Consul General to that country some 3 decades ago and published a book on it. Academicians aren't necessariy street smart. Pakistan will never become a democracy as long as it practices cockamamie blasphemy laws, getting increasingly fanatical and talibanistic. And who cares about what Asaram Bapu says about Pakistan? This guy is a self-styled godman pervert whose ashram is a place of orgy, who thinks that the rape victim in Delhi brought it upon herself since she didn't call the rapists her brothers, and who is an accused in a 700 crore rupees land grab case. These jokers ought to be sent to the border to face bullets before preaching to us on how to deal with Pakistan.
