		<description>Some in Pakistan like the LeT and many others are beasts; like our very own Sangh Parivar goupies viz the Bajrang Dal, Ram Sene etc etc.. We cannot kill those beasts, for that would mean killing millions. So the next best thing to do is try to tame them. Now this taming of the beast business is a very long drawn, time consuming and patience-testing one. One has to weild the stick as well as dangle the carrot before them. This is how the US is dealing with Pakistan - culling as well as carassing the target population. One cannot boycott or remain ignorant of a next door neighbour - whatever happens over there impacts us too like earthquakes, floods or cyclones as well as bouts of violence and incidence of extreme poverty and ill-health. Therefore PM Singh is handling the neighbours with the right amount of carassing - we always do the culling when required while calling ourselves peaceful (thats our Chankayaneeti - when our atomic-bomb tests are successful we encode it by declaring the incidence as Buddha smiled - how deadly can be this Buddha&#039;s smile is not hidden from any body). So trade, culture and sports are the tools of taming that we have to use - and when push comes to shove then the Pakistanis have learnt it the hard way many a times that we can beat the shit out of them. Deal with Pakistan from a position of power and strength and yet in a tolerant manner - for that is the way to tame the beast.</description>
