: These are all political games. Everyone in his or her right senses has the heart going out for all the innocent people who have died and those who will be suffering, for long time to come, because of these deaths. At such time if you want the world to appreciate your offered help to USA, for fighting against the terrorism, it seems simply funny.
: There are two kinds of countries who are offering their support to the America right now... the ones who REALLY are concerned and the others who REALLY are afraid... afraid, because of the blames they are clearly getting (and more so because of the possible results)..... and everyone is able to identify both the segments VERY WELL, which country is falling in which category... hence there is no need to highlight the offered support with the hollow expectations to gain appreciation (the back of the mind is saying, hey! please sympathise with me and don't make me a target). If any countries which fall in the second category (clearly and well knowingly) want to really offer the support, they should open their eyes and minds and stop indulging in the terrorist activities themselves on the name of relegion or rigid mind set or whatever. Hatred only kills, either you or the person in front of you (AND SUBSEQUENTLY YOU, its a cycle)... and yes Arn is absolutely right while making his comments about some of the big powers' reactions in different times. They need a base in different parts of the world to maintain their places of power... and have been managing it with total flexibility (may be negative flexibility). YOu give me a place and you are pardoned for whatever you do, wrong or right TILL its not affecting´me. Well, be a terrorist or anything with anyone else... pardoned, if I can have you for keeping an eye on your part of the planet. Tens of thousands of people do die on regular basis in different parts of this world, due to these terrorist activities AND countries who try to play the fathers don't really act like the one (by the way who needs a father, it may be a friend but there is ABSOLUTELY no need of a forced father).
: Well, the only thing to consider that if it affects someone today, it HAS all the probabilities to affect me someday because power is never an absolute terms, its also relative and its never constant, it moves in a cycle like everything else. Don't try to PLAY relative, simply learn to relate yourself.

: : My deepest sympathies for all the poeple that suffered because of this horrifying act of cowardness.
: : Also for the Indians taking advantage of someone else's miseries to defame Pakistan .... Shame on you. Just follow the news Pakistan is one of those countries that offered unconditional help against terrorism.
: : People in Pakistan are with you in this difficult time and you will see Pakistan will be the one that will help USA to get rid of the poeple behind this cruel act.
