		<title>Time to restart this blog?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My last post was over a year back and was titled &#8220;Time to shut down this blog?&#8221; My answer would only be partly apparent from my lack of posts &#8230;I didn&#8217;t abandon the blog completely, but got involved in a host of new activities from twittering, to branching out into research on cyber-security. My intention [...]]]></description>

		<title>Time to shut down this blog?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[God knows I haven&#8217;t been paying enough attention to this blog&#8230;my blog dashboard informs me that the last time I updated it was 51 days ago. To use the cliche, time certainly flies. Many reasons for the inattention, chief of which was that I was busy organising 30 lectures for future foreign service professionals. But [...]]]></description>

		<title>FBI becomes the SABI (South Asia Bureau of Investigation:-)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I just came across this lecture by FBI Director Robert F. Mueller III which he delivered at the Council on Foreign Relations. Probably because this was just a few days before he was to wing his way to Delhi, he began his remarks with reference to the Mumbai attacks and the involvement of the FBI. [...]]]></description>

		<title>War of Words in the USA</title>
		<description><![CDATA[With temperatures and tempers flaring on the sub-continent, the respective Indian and Pakistani lobby groups in the United States have not been far behind in adding their voices to the fracas. Indian American lobby groups came up with the Washington Chalo (Let&#8217;s March on Washington) program, echoing the Delhi Chalo war cry of Subhas Chandra [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Indian Foreign Secretary and his lazy speechwriters</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This is slightly off-topic but I just couldn&#8217;t resist:-) I was googling for Foreign Secretary Shivshankar Menon&#8217;s speech at Delhi University on January 19 when Google turned up another speech of his in December 2007 out of which 2 paragraphs(547 words) on International Terrorism and Energy Security had been copied in their entirety and pasted [...]]]></description>

		<title>Regular programming will resume shortly..</title>
		<description><![CDATA[First, it was the month long vacation that was combined with a medical check-up. And, then picking up the threads after such a long break also proved to be a tedious task. It took Barack Obama&#8217;s Inaugural Address to remind me of my responsibilities in cyber space, and I shall resume posting before the week [...]]]></description>

		<title>India&#039;s 9/11</title>
		<description><![CDATA[One doesn&#8217;t quite know what to post after an attack like the one on Bombay. The terror attacks have been termed as India&#8217;s 9/11 and I find the analogy quite apt as it exposed the utter unpreparedness of the authorities. As a leading columnist put it, India is disgraced by Mumbai Failure. Though it seemed [...]]]></description>

		<title>Has the Indian Navy scored a self-goal?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Looks like it&#8217;s the Indian Navy that&#8217;s coming down with a headache. Media reports quote a Thai national as saying that what the Indian Navy sank was no pirate mother ship but his fishing vessel which had been captured by the pirates. The Navy&#8217;s denied this and there are insinuations that the Thai national is [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[As the Navy basks in the glow of its successful actions in Somalia leading to congratulations pouring in from across the world, the civilian bureaucracy and the political leadership at the helm of affairs in Delhi have been running helter-skelter trying to figure out how to prevent existing power equations changing as a result of [...]]]></description>
