From AP:
NEW DELHI (AP) — India's prime minister said Friday that the peace process with Pakistan was in danger of failing because of attacks like last month's bombing of New Delhi's mission in Afghanistan.
India and Afghanistan say Pakistan's powerful Inter-Services Intelligence agency orchestrated the attack, which killed 58 people. Islamabad denies playing any role but has promised to investigate the allegation.
"If this issue of terrorism is not addressed, all the good intentions that we have for our two peoples to live in peace and harmony will be negated," Prime Minister Manmohan Singh said in an Independence Day speech. "We will not be able to pursue the peace initiatives we want to take."

My Comment: India's Prime Minister knows where the threat to India is coming from. The problem is that (politically) Pakistan is completely disorganized right now .... with most of parliament focused on impeaching Pervez Musharraf instead of reigning in their Intelligence Services and combating the growing Taliban insurgency in their Tribal regions.
I suspect that Indian PM Manmohan Singh knows that there is no one in Pakistan that India can negotiate and deal with at the present time. The Indian PM sounds very frustrated .... and with good cause.
