| With the door open to so many options, hawks and hard-liners of many stripes have been arguing for a wide range of punitive military strikes. |
| Hard-liners say settlements and outposts reinforce their claim to Biblical lands. |
| They have, however, also convinced young Kurds and PKK hard-liners alike that Turkey can be forced to accept their maximalist demands by going on the offensive. |
| Hard-liners formed a radical political party, more extremist than any other. |
| And neither is capable of outfoxing the hard-liners in an interagency power struggle. |
| In order to do so the BJP should rein in hard-liners within the party and those associated with the RSS and other outfits. |
