Shall we outsource the PM ?

A Terrorist attack on a premier educational institution, now why didn't anyone think of it yet.I did, in fact i vividly remember a conversation i had with a colleague wherein we veered from talking about the middle east, to India - Pak , when i told her about the sense it made to attack places of educational importance in India, the example we took was TIFR (maybe its next).

It just makes super "common sense" to me.Adolf Hitler wrote in Mein Kampf about how the first step in unifying Germany would be to destroy the Jewish press, and Jewish schools.(Although he's also written that almost all the newspapers in Austrian Germany belonged to the Jews, and they indulged in a mass brainwashing programme to keep the Germans subdued.I have neither been able to refute his claims nor can i deny them, for the lack of material evidence.Maybe he was right, or maybe not).Sun Tzu has mentioned about how the enemy needs to be weakened first, its supplies hampered, before you go ahead to conquer it.Now if i could get my hands on these texts am sure militant groups too could go ahead and use them for their benefit.

The fact that India is a soft target has been proved over, and over again.I believe i had written somewhere before that Indian Governments lack the balls to take decisive, and strong action against terrorism.The only step ahead in the past few years was the declaration that Indian Governments will not negotiate with terrorists, how good that can be, i do not know.Delhi, Bombay and now Bangalore, wonder who's next.From parliaments to educational institutes, we are vulnerable all the way.

In this period of strong economic growth, we need a strong leader who can channelize the benefits of that growth to the poorest states, and one who can take strong decisions, and implements actions to erase the banner of "soft target" that sits under our national flag.I believe we need a Indira Gandhi.MS was a good bureaucrat and a great FM, but that guy isn't a politician and he displays the tendency of bureaucrats to please everyone but still he's what we have got and i can't think of any other leader who can take his position and manage the country with the intelligence and ruthlessness both in sync.Just like FDI and foreign coaches in sports , we need an expat PM.A Putin would do just fine.
