Advani is a very straight forward man. Todays Indian politics need such firm men to deal with terrorism and such other issues. Compare Ayodhya and Somnath issues. Since we (Sardar Vallabhay Patel?) took a strong decision to rub off all the bad memories/symbols of the invader Gory and build the somnath temple back there, everything went smoothly. No riots. No problem! But in the case of Ayodya, we(Nehru?) could not take a strong stand. So we suffer even today. So is the case of Kashmir. If we had taken back the POK then itself, there wouldnt have been this much problem I guess. Rahul Krishnan
What a coincidence! today only, Mr. Advani was accused of instructing to pull down Babri Masjid, by none other than his co-accused ...and here we are hearing all this crap from Mr. Advani. Frankly, I am impressed by his selection of books and authors - some of these I have read too. But nowhere in these books I was ever able to find out a "How to pull a mosque down?" or "How to massacre thousands of innocents by provoking riots?" ....list is long.... this is the problem of my dear country that an accused is sitting as the Deputy PM of India we cannot do anything.
It is really India's good fortune that India has got a political leader like him today. Compared to the Laloos and Mulayams he is surely much much mature leader, probably because he is so well read. Though I am kind of surprised that he did not mention Aurbindo's "India's Rebirth" or other books....may be because he is tired of getting called a "Hindu fundamentalist" for absoultely no reason. Thanks rediff for bringing out this interesting article...

Laloos, Mulayams, Rabris, L.K. Advanis are all the same, but they come in different packaging.
