Well, there is a difference between a pointless debate and an expression of opinion.
I agree with you that we have to be open to the world and our political policies should be linked with our economic goals but the point is that one should always be aware of the tactics of one's enemy. If you don't bite a dog this won't ensure that the dog will also spare you just because you are a peaceloving person.
Secondly, the economic progress hasn't affected the human nature. Man was brutual and is as much brutual as he was. Life was good for the rich and powerful in the past and is so even today. What change has this economic development brought in the lives of poor or helpless? You and me can never imagine the miseries and frustrations of such people. One can survive hunger but not injustice. If these economic developments fail to bring peace and justce in lives of our people then to hell with these developments.
