Hello. I joined Fropper to meet the beautiful people of India and learn more about the wonderous and lovely country of India. I have made many wonderful and amazing friends thus far.

Recently I was invited to read a blog posted on Girish K Sawhney's zone. I was much dismayed to read it was a supportive blog of the terriost attack of 9/11. I was also dismayed to read some of the comments in agreement with the blog. Much hate has spewed through both the blog and the comments. This really hurt me as Girish "portrays" himself to be one of my friends.

I now realize that there will always be hate from some people. They are just born haters.

I still love India. I still love the Indian people. I realize that the comments made are from a small percentage of the Indian population and do not represent India as a whole. I want to thank those Indian individuals who had the courage to disagree with the blog.

Below is part of the USAID/India program. It has not been edited. Our countries make a wonderful partnership and may it continue forever!!!!!

India is both a key U.S. partner in the war on terrorism and an anchor for security and economic growth in strategically important South Asia.
