I take it Huduism is a sort of cross between Hoodooism and Hinduism? ;)

>yet few andi-American terrorists due to the fundamental differences between Islam and Huduism. India is on the forefront of fighting terrorism and has been at the receiving end of terrorist activities from Pakistan in the past. Granted there have been huge economic leaps in the past few years (very few years) the overall country is still as poor as its neighbors. Yet they did not consider themselves controlled or coerced by the U.S. government as Islamic extremists do.

>>>Can you provide an example of where honey worked with terrorists? Where the country is not a target of terrorism now because of that tactic? Where the country did not basically placate the terrorists (give in to them) and that country is not now an immediate target because another larger target is more important?

>>Maybe not honey in the short term but the long one. The west antagonizes these people and does little to help them overcome their problems. Thomas Friedman gives examples (in his books and in a TV interview he did with T. Russert) about the situation of the poor in Pakistan.

>>He proposed that if we helped these people out of their poor economic situation, by providing investments and jobs, they become middle-class. The middle-class in Pakistan, in his example, wants to better their kid's education. As always, public education is sub-par, so they prefer to send their kids to private school. What decent private schools exist inthe area are religious schools (madrassas), run by an Islamic Fundamentalist mafia that instills hatred of the west and the 'infidels' into their young minds.
>>
>>When a country gets out of poverty and people reach middle-class, it's in their interest to maintain order and reject fundamentalism, and the terrorists in their midst. They want peace, security and stability. It's the only way to do business and aspire to maintain a decent standard of life.

>>Unfortunately, for many decades now, the USA and the west has not cultivated their friendship; has not - by and large - provided investments and jobs for these people. Contrast these examples with India, or Indonesia, Morocco or even Egypt. They get loans, they get tourism and trade, and they are more-or-less stable.
