Can I have a suitable reply or thoughts.. to the appended…posted on a forum by someone;

I have been VERY vocal about how teams should tour Pakistan else its going to be helping terrorists but from last week or two I am sensing a shift in my opinion. After reading the useless and irresponsible articles, I am developing a fear within and I think, I DO NOT WANT INDIA TO TOUR PAKISTAN.
I said irresponsible because we still have a due process to take place i.e security team will go to Pakistan from India and take the security briefing. Indian high commissioner is in touch with PCB to follow up the security arrangements and then they have to make a decision but before that If I read sentences like these (from UN-NAMED sources btw) “if even a “scratch” comes to Sachin, what would happen to the bilateral relations.”, I think …well at the end of the day its just a sport and nothing much. Why invite a Camel to home and worry about small doors?
Whats your take on this? UNQUOTE:
