Saroj, You have hit the nail on the head.Politics is not mathematics that has outright solution. Hence, the need to work towards it constantly even more. You don't give up just because it seems that it has no solution. Or else, If you were well informed, there wouldn't be thousands of labs worldwide trying to find the ultimate cure for it would they? Or would you say to them, you can't take care of HIV by not being in africa? :P On the other hand, IF YOU WERE WELL INFORMED about HIV, now that you have drawn a parallel, MAGIC JOHNSON is a living example of HIV/AIDS and seems to be healthier each day. The point being, We are very near to finding a solution. Just because it seems unlikely that a vaccine failed several times in the past, you don't let HIV take over you, or would you? Now about your fighting for democracy from abroad...like a person in another forum noted,just like the people who are mad about girija and maoists and want to wipe them out do not want to go to nepal and join the army, noone has to go to nepal and sacrifice their head just to prove that point that they are concerned about it. That would be stupidity. If KingG and his ROYAL army allowed such peaceful protests, I am sure there would be. Now if you'd read the news recently, your common people who are fighting for survival, maoist victims who are all but demanding food taht has been decayed in kadhya sasthan, were used brutal force to end the strike. So you go figure, mr omniscient :)
