Fair Enough WG. Point Noted!
And please don't justify the murder of the Brit teen. You're whole argument came down because of that.
I am dead sure about this one as this is not the first time she came to India. Anyway she is not with the world any more and thus I will not like to talk about somebody who is not there.
Second argument,

Which incident you talking about?
And no I have nothing against Indians. Sheesh. It's just that the country is so diverse, sometimes I target a few and it may come off that I'm anti-India. This time round my rant was against political class and the media.

Fair enough and I agree that educated people have started to raise lot of issues now and there are bodies being formed all around. India has changed a lot since 1990's, but yet has a long way to go. Indians are very emotional people and equally sensitive (one quality that does more harm than good), thus do over react. Also the emergence of regional parties was not a good sign, but the current elections have clearly reflected that regional parties can not use their arm twisting tactics to gather support or votes.
In respect of Davis Cup, that was just hog wash. Seriously it did not make sense when the other sports was attracting people from different nationalities. I feel Australia started that as a trend and the sportsman from Australia have been famous for making racial comments and they are a reflection of the society.
Though I have known a few Australians and do feel they get into trouble because they are blunt and up front. They do not mean harm, but its the way the society is, very competitive. Cap is another example of a typical Australian and that reflects quite well. He is a good man.
