All true. Winston had his faults but his comment: "You can always rely on the Americans to do the right thing -- after they have tried every conceivable alternative" is remarkably accurate. We too frequently do a lot of really dumb things in the process of sorting it out...Well, I for one agree. There have been aberrations but then, no matter where, there always are.For sentimental reasons, I also like to think that the mass of Punjab (and India in general) has historically been a fairly sane place, but that is probably a biased opinion and may not be easy to defend in argument.
