Rajib,
Why do you keep on ranting against the ULFA only? You should rant against the Indian Army who kill and torture innocents in large numbers
and Indian bureaucrats (the establishment) who are mostly all corrupt to the bone in the same breath to have any semblance of reasonableness in your writings.

"Certain circles" indeed! Innocent civilians bombed out and the level of extortion and the money hoarded in Bangladesh are somewhat universal yardsticks for defining discredited or not.
In any case we are talking about the future and the system for it. Not about what ULFA was 20 years back. About what it is today and what it is capable of tommorow versus what the current system is today and what it is capable of tomorrow.
So what is the verdict on the following about ULFA AS THINGS STAND TODAY: a. Its capability to define the "sovereign" nation it is fighting for b. Its capability or defined vision in terms of how it will govern the sovereign nation in a way that is fundamentally better than what it is today? c. Its defined idealogy and the committment of its cadre to its idealogy?. d. Its capability to wage war "successfully" e. And to cut it short, its record of respecting people's opinion?
Then there is the small point about whether it does indeed represent the sovereign nation it has defined for itself?
