Will Chidambaram's hardtalk in Islamabad speed up the 26/11 trial in Pakistan?

PAK DOES NOT SEEM TO BE SO KEEN IN TAKING ACTION AND ONLY TRYING TO BUY TIME.

No Pakistan can not trusted. it is a failed state i do not understand as to why the Indian governent is so keen on talking to Pakistan. All the talks so far has not yoelded any results. i feel that India is wasting time and resources.

Shilpa, I agree with you what you described about Mr. C, but it doesnt mean that Pak will act on terrorism. In fact controlling terror in P is out of control of their govt. I feel. May be for general support P people will say that they will do it , they will do that. But I dont think they will make it practical..

If a person is fooled once, it is understandable.  But if a person is getting fooled continuously, what will you call him? Fools?  No.  Not at all.  You call them Indians.  Pakistan knows that Indians are spineless people who cannot take strong and quick decisions like Israel.  And that is why they keep troubling India.  And if a person has decided to trouble you, can you make him change with any amount of talking?  That should summarise this discussion.

Even after providing umpteen dossiers, tons of evidence and lots of strong talks, Pakistan has not done anything.  If a mosquito keeps on biting you, do you tell it not to bite?  That is the solution.

It goes without saying that Chidambaram is a task master and perhaps first external affairs minister having nerves of steel but as far as this terrorism issue is concerned and that too with Pak;it is not going to reach at climax.India needs to take stand like Israel while dealing with any kind of  terrorism but our politicians themselves dont want to hurry the process because it has nothing in store for them.Also,by acting tough on Pakistan they fear ruining their Muslim vote bank in rural areas.Yes it is a bitter truth.It has been about 18 months and still nothing has happened.why?I hope we all know.We dont want peace at the cost of our lives.Do we?We know what should have India done that November itself.Time has passed and nothing will happen now.

no it will never speed up & even if the trail is completed it will be of no use as all the trail will be just be a show off.the culprits should be handed over to India as the crime was comitted in India.

what pakistan will do, no one can say.

I dont think any straight bilateral talk is going to change the situations ta all. I believe that the main problem why we are unable to put actual measurable result orientated pressure on pakistan is our lack of goodwill in nearby muslim countries (and Middle East) who can actually make an impact. Pakistan actually acts as the boss of muslim countries with hardly anything in its hands politically. The duty of its politicians unofficially seems to be to cover ISI and other terrorist outfits ( and they have to do it to save their lives if not by their wish/will).Nobody seems to be accountable for anything which is happening in Pakistan I believe. So when accountability itself is not there, to whom are we showing our rigidness or straight talk? Who is going to bother in Pak? Looks like they feel their job is done till they are able to keep India to these straight talks.I hope things change sooner.Sometimes i feel sympathy for Pakistani people who i think are being the victims of these terrorist activities back home. Sometimes I feel Pakistan is not the one who is actually behind all this. They are just being made the scapegoat or frontface. I even doubt if there is any government in any country who actually wants to solve this issue permanently.
