India has opened her markets to US capital. From $ 11 million4 in 1991, US FDI in India has soared to $ 5 billion5 in 2005-06, a 450 times increase in 15 years. US capital wants its government to reward India, of course, in a manner which will increase her dependence on the US. A list of US companies which were lined up by the US India Business Council to lobby the US Congress to approve of the "123 agreement" includes General Electric, Ford Motors, Lockheed Martin, Boeing, and Aerospace Industries Association.The deal wraps India more tightly in the embrace of US finance-capital and its strategic-military geopolitics.
The supporters of the deal are foretelling doom for the country if the deal falls through, because, we are told, as fossil fuels run out, nuclear energy becomes the alternative, and the nuclear programme requires import of fuel (uranium), the US being ready to export just what is needed.

wani bhardwaj ,Bottom line is Left parties made China and Pakistan very happy. I bet Iran also enjoying this. What good reason Iran with 60 million peole need Nuclear power plant when they have 4% of world oil? Feel sorry for the Indian govt. Handful of Communist thugs decide India's foreign policy. They hate anything American. It is so obvious. Indian Communist living in the cold war era. They all look so old and run down.

You are very wrong. These thugs like everything American. Just that they pretend to dislike them to fool their followers. Many of these leader's kids are in the US, they have everything American in their homes, have enough dollars in cash with them, and have more than 2 or 3 business that they run under someone else name. They are actually real capitalists, but just pretending to be socialists. So dont kid yourself and feel that are living in the cold war era. They are very cunning people who talk one thing and do another.
The main reason they are against this deal is that they would have tried to get some money from the Govt, but looks like they were too greedy and would have probably asked for a lot, which the Govt would have thought useless.
Just wait for the next election, where the communists will be wiped out and the deal willgo through.
So, without having to tolerate any imminent danger to its own security, the US, stung by the Talibani metamorphosis of Pakistan, sees the new pro reform, pro globalisation, pro US India as its future beach head against a possibly hostile China and a possible China-Russia-Central Asia axis (on the lines of the Shanghai Co-operation Organisation), as well as a fast developing ally of Israel against Palestine, Iran and Taliban-type fundamentalism. India is now Israel's largest customer for weaponry. In 2000, India's defence purchases from Israel amounted to $1.5 billion. Military hardware and software worth $ 7 billion have been bought since 2006 (The Times of India, 31.8.07). The American Jewish Committee openly supported the proposed deal. India has Observer status at the Shanghai Co-operation Organisation, and the US would like also to wean it away from such alliances.
The Indian nuclear programme is self-reliant and actually unstoppable without military intervention. As it is going to continue anyway, so, apart from good business policy, it is sound military and diplomatic strategy to exercise a degree of control over the supply line of fuel. Once India becomes dependent on this supply line for nuclear power, whose importance in the energy sector is also being enhanced, a threat to choke this line will add to the pressure on India to toe the US line, especially in emergencies.
We fully support Mr. Kalam and India should listen his voice before going further on signing 123 agreement. Please also note why does the US suddenly find that it can live with the Indian bomb? There are several reasons. The USA's honeymoon with China seems over. In spite of the penetration of US finance capital into the huge Chinese market, Chinese trade and monetary policy is hurting the US. In the 11 months ending in November, 2006, the US had a trade deficit of $214 billion with China2, and China refuses to reduce this deficit by revaluing its currency for fear that cheap foreign agricultural products will invade and destabilise its rural economy and further disturb its already restive peasants. Military exhibitionism over Taiwan is at a new high. The US notes the military build-up of China's PLA and the upgrading of its western Pacific strike capabilities. The US recently upgraded its own China war contingency plan from CONPLAN (concept status) to OPLAN (resource assignment status, O is for Operations) 3, the Pacific Command OPLAN 5077-04.
The Indian bomb threatens neighbouring countries, most notably Pakistan and China, but the US is still far beyond the range of Indian missiles. So, without having to tolerate any imminent danger to its own security, the US, stung by the Talibani metamorphosis of Pakistan, sees the new pro reform, pro globalisation, pro US India as its future beach head against a possibly hostile China and a possible China-Russia-Central Asia axi

Sahadevan, You are one hell of a A....hole. You and your party leaders are licking Chinamen's ass for decades. I rather have American as boss than your dirty lowdown China men. I rather have Bill gates or Warren Buffet as my boss. Do you know who those people are ? YOU ARE FOOL.

The brainless as ho..l Sahadevan KK, is inviting people from all sectors to join his Patry in a message below. Just few words about his Communist Prty party.
1. World history of commies: communist dictators killed people more than Hitler did. 1. This dictators once ruled 60per cent of the world over 75 years with iron cover - once people realised there is a free and democratic world outside communism-which consider humen being high value, they dimolished communist empires all over the world one by one. Present poorest countries are former communist countries. This is the result communist ruling left behind almost a century. In China communists realised if they followed the crap system they cannot develop-some parts of the the country they changed capitalism(market ecconomy. Just because that area chinies ecconomy grown-morover they invites all American and EU companies in china.
History in India: Bengal sencond largest industrialised state after Mumbay, since commies came in power all induatries shifted to other states. after 30 years of communist dictaors rule Bengal became the poorest state in India. No infrastucture Kolkata is the most conjusted city with narro raods and dirty streets. No power supply, unemployment is hing. people rioting for ration(only in bengal this happed)CPM gundas and commie-police raping and ki

Idiot Sahadevan - you can't understand, because you are mentaly sick. You and your Left people are like frogs in a well.
Conti... 30 years of commies rule in bengal even driven people for rioting ration supply. Nandigram proves who oppose commies in democratic way will get killed. They are raping teenage girls, mothers even their own party members who opposes leders policies.(Nadigram fame) In Kerala: communist rule and trade union activity driven Kerala as a consumer state. No new industry came in Kerala since last 30 years. If any one try, doest matter small or big, commie unions strike some reason and keep them drive out of state. , people suviving just bcos 25 p/cent of Kerala homes has one person working abroad. while other states are heading for 6 track higways kerala still in single track even not a single good raod. Communist leaders are most corrupt politician. CPM secretory under CBI investigation 425 crore looted in a foreign electricity co deal. another CPM leaders took 2 crores bribe from a lottery mafia to save him 8000 crore tax cheat case. CPM leders admited took bribe from finance mafia 2 crores for save him cheating publics deposit charges. Farmers stops agriculture due to non profit since commies came in power. Once Rice surplus state now depent everything for Tamilnad or Karnataka or Andra. if one weak lory strike kerala comodity prices sky rockets.
Even while critisising Gujarat, Kerala finance minister sending expert team to learn 'bribe free' check post system in Gujarat(last days news) I wonder why u using computer! ur party was protesting computarisation

Kalam said a good thing. It is a great smash on the leaders who tide us with the US for last 15 years in the name of globalisation. Poverty, unemployment, price rice everthing increasing. Leaders work for the US.
Today farmers, employees, Muslims, Christians, social activists, Communists, lower casts, artists, media etc. understand this thing well. UPA's failure bring BJP again, mudsling, killing, brutality, corruption, freindship with George Bush... Work with SFI, DYFI, CITU, AIDWA like organisations, and bring your friends to them.

And you Mallus work for US companies 100 times harder under Arabs. And your as... hole leaders visit those countries inorder to shop and enjoy the CAPITALIST STYLE OF LIVING.
