Letter to the editor Any luck for India in Afghanistan quagmire? The way US ambassador has addressed India's supposed interest in Afghanistan, by regally 'allowing' India to be invited to contribute in the development phase of Afghanistan's reconstruction; it is nothing less than adding insult to injury. US and NATO forces themselves are desperate to get out of the disaster called Afghanistan and they need proxies to come in and savor the ‘luxuries’ of the killing fields of the treacherous land where no occupier in history has ever lasted long. India should know. They always came from the north and they can always find pretext to move south. If Indiais being advised by warmongers to take preventive action and move out to catch them before they come down and bring the fight to our soil, Indiashould be on guard for any such trickery. India's peace is based on peace in and around its territory. If it tries to join the regime change game with the West, it may have to say goodbye to its own sustain economic growth. If India has to get into Afghanistan, it should wait till a legitimate and effective national government is in place in Afghanistan and it issues honorable invitation to India to join in trade and redevelopment. US and NATO are looked upon as aggressors and occupiers. India need not seek their company and must keep its distance from the warmongering colonizers who shamefacedly pursue their own national interests and that is not necessarily in India's national interest. Why India needs reportedly 24 consulates in the God-forsaken land, where India will be seen as opening spy centers all around. It is surprising that India has not yet been in the eye of storm other than the recent Kabul bomb blast around Indian establishments. India should not press its luck in Afghanistan.
