I have noticed the brief space given to us to write articles at this forum.
While we can endlessly blame India for our own misfortunes and troubles, warn our awaam of an Indian propangada tirade, we need a close look at our diplomatic policy FIRST.
Lets start with the nuclear tests - India tested them first. This was the perfect opportunity isolate our vicious and heavily armed neighbour. Had we not tested our nuclear arsenal so soon and told the world about India's hygemonious designs and Pakistan's genuine desire for a green and peaceful South-Asia, the world would have patted us on our back. Instead, we did exactly what India did, and that too within a few DAYS. We didnt even have the time to think about the after-effects of the nuclear testing, India thought about their policy for YEARS wheras we reached our conclusion in DAYS. It resulted in sanctions being imposed on both nations which hit us far more than they affected India.
The nuclear testing saga put both India and Pakistan is a bad light. But India suffered the least and we still continue to suffer from the sanctions imposed since we are the ones in urgent dire for any penny from abroad and not our neighbour whoose economy is booming at a swift rate.
