Hopes from Obama

We can see a ray of hope from the statement of President elect Obama at the Press Conference that USA whole heartedly will support India in its efforts to combat terrorism. He has rightly said that every soverign nation has the right to protect itself. It is a firm and clear message to Pakistan to clean its terrorist stable that it has nurtured so long bringing death and destruction in all corners of the globe under the twisted cover of religious slogan of Jihad. However, how far sincere USA is in its words and deeds, only time will show as our experience in the past has not been very happy. In any case, every nation has to be self reliant to protect its own interests. So let us not depend and rely too much on these statements and meet the challenge forcefully without inhibitions of any kind.
