Thanks a lot for the feedback. I really appreciate the language mistakes that you mentioned.
Yup there are language issues in this expansion. As far as examples are concerned , when someone negotiates from position of the weakness, then agreements are imposed on him. Like everyone is suggesting that the way our government is going in for dialogues with Taliban from the position of weakness , it will end up with a bad deal. Similarly , no matter how superior ottoman or Germany was but were negotiating from the position of weakness. Similarly , Pakistan in 1971 was in a weak position to assert herself on the negotiating table . We ended up losing East Pakistan and also have to accept and enter into agreement with India where we also accepted that Kashmir is bilateral issue. This is now hurting the Kashmir cause as well as India is not ready for any third party role be it any country or organization like UNO .

First paragraph is the summary of almost everything which I discussed later on . Yup language is bit more suggestive of the last sentence . It must have been like an open ended question . "How a person can deal with this is a million dollar question"
