When senior scientists have expressed satisfaction, technology policy aspects`of the deal, where there were no rooms for compromise, are in place. The politics and strategic aspects of the deal are something which never remains static.
Besides, the leverage for coping with the political equations are superior when India is within the NSG fold, therefore it makes eminent sense to nuance the stances.
On strategic aspect, the deal gives India a much needed boost and options to build durable security achitecture with whom ABV had famously termed as 'natural partners'.

France, a civil democracy, but non-English and Catholic has been positioned as 'foul-weather friend' by a leading US paper, what kind of friend an english speaking, non-aligned civil democracatic India would be? - 'extreme foul weather friend'!

The modernity ethos of the subcontinent%u2019s Muslim populace is perhaps the most sophisticated cultural heritage amongst all Islamic nationalities in the world. The biggest blow to terror would be isolating Muslims of the subcontinent from external Middle-Eastern leadership. The N-deal and its associated NSSP provides a political fillip to such efforts.
Is not there any more Bhakat Singh or Khudiram or Rajguru to kill this traitor or cheeter who selling their country. Otherwise this scoundrel politicians will never listin to the common people's cry or pay attention to their country fellow's interest or any protest. They need only 3rd degree or brutal killing. If any Jihad exists in India should be against this Monmohan-congress jerks, a party full backstabber and traitors.

What about advani and vajpayee? Why did they get along with pak when their army intruded kargil? Why did advani praise jinna? Are they patriots? Should India support them?

I fully agree with the writer. Our nation is not safe in the hands UPA. They are selling our nation to foreign county merely in their personal interests. It is a very dangerous siutation. It is high time to wake up the people of this nation and register their strong protest against this Nuclear deal with USA. Government is again going to give our nation in the hand of foreign country and it is detrimental.
Question: Why was US allowed to shift nuclear goal posts?
Question: Why should we agree to US demand of not testing even if Chinese and Pakistanis test another device?
Question: US agreed that India wil lhave COMPLETE reprocessing rights then why should we have this right in a site open for IAEA( infiltrated by US spies ) inspections. (We all know about Iraq weapons inspections where US spies were working as UN monitors)?
Question: Why is this condition that even if we can reprocess the nuclear fuel under US supervision we cannot use it and will have to give the reprocessed fuel back to US?
Congress had once again sold Indian independence to US.
May GOD help us now as the future is going to be very difficult.

You should trust your common sense more than the opinions of saffron-brigade of BharatRakshak.
One more Nuclear Bomb or one more Nuclear Power Plant? That is the question.
Do you want to play with puppies like Pakistan, Iran or do you want to play with big dogs like US, China, Russia? This is the decision.
Do you want to prosper and uplift the standard of living of "ALL" the people by access to the cutting-edge technology and market or are you going to live in bullock-cart age with Tata-Birla technology? These are the choices.
