In direct contravention of my wife's explicit instructions, herewith I inaugurate my first blog. Long may it prosper.

For some reason, I think I have something to say to you. You think you have something to say to me? Email me at: gideonsblogger -at- yahoo -dot- com

 
Joe Katzman at Winds of Change has a post linking to a number of good pieces on the Kashmir issue, particularly one by Rajiv Malhotra. The key point: America's top objective should not be to shore up the Pakistani government or to reform it in a democratic direction but to get our hands on its nuclear weapons. If we don't do this, the message we are sending is: nuclear blackmail works. Which, so far, it seems to be doing.
