When everybody knows

Have you come across a situation where some lies, but everyone knows the truth about that person not being honest. You have to tolerate the person more out of compulsion. The persons lie is still accepted as truth.

I have found several such examples in the political and business world.

Why to we tolerate such things? I think we expect things to improve in the future and the person to get better or excuse it as a once in a while thing.

I think there is a general lack of assertiveness. We usually tend to be either aggressive or submissive (which is what I understood of your topic, feel free to correct me). I feel this cuts into the attitude of people in our region. It takes correct language, tone and more importantly an open sense of fairness to be assertive.

Yes, agreed in general, but what about in the political world!

Lets talk about things like India deserving a seat in the security council or even more deaper issues. Everyone knows what is the right thing to do, but hardly anyone speaks about.

What about the fact that some countries has been sponsoring terrorism in our country and are a part of the war on global terror, look at our neighbours!
