Is it any different? Reading all the different posts, to me it does not look like it is. There are known problems of "desi demokrasy" and there are known problems of militancy and militants (and why it might not want to come to the negotiating table). The known problems, in your case, is again as much of a speculation in the sense that your feet are not on the ground. In as much as leaders of ULFA are "fighting for their compatriots freedom", the bureacrats and the politicians ON THE GROUND are working the system for "the betterment of Assam". In as much as your opinions of desi demokrasy are colored by your views against India and the Indian system, DD's views are colored based on the biases he supposedly carries. In that sense the "DD vs. Ulfa Leaders" is similar to "CM vs real CM and bureacrats". In both cases, the protagonists have come far away to the luxuries of the west and of opinion giving from far afar. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam?
