"We continue to believe that the civil nuclear deal is good, not only for India and for the United States, but also good in terms of strengthening the non-proliferation regimes that are out there," Casey said. This sentence has been repeated, verbatim, in more than 50 official statements put out to media by that many US spokespersons or US delegation heads. Just analyse this statement in conjunction with their recent statements that "Hyde Act, which is America's domestic law supercedes and is supreme over all international agreements and treaties that US enters now or ever in the future with any country in the world". While the Hyde Act clearly rejects possession or development of any nuke tech, civil or military, by any country with whom US signs a nuke agreement, the 123-deal stipulates the 'code of conduct' for India with regard to the functioning of its existing nuke physical infrastructure and scientific/technical manpower. It is unfortunate that our strategic think-tank, if at all it exists, does not pay attention to these assertions. This is obvious from the fact that there has never even once a rejoinder issued to these consistent proclamation being dinned by the Yankees!
It is time for our nuke scientists to wake up and put out our analysis of the on-going hush-hush dialogue solely by disreputable Congress henchmen with US politicians. The traitorous Cong govt with the help of unethical Commies are out to cheat this nation into subordination and slavery.

No Indian leader, either political, administrative or scientific, have replied to these blatant US statements by saying that "India is a strong democratic country which believes in not only total self-reliance in advanced technologies in general, but also is committed to becoming an unsurpassable, environment-friendly nuke-energy technology leader whether the Americans like it or not. So if this goal of ours is US's Hyde Act, so be it. We will never amend our goals solely in America's and against India's interests". It is high time some of our most eminent nuke scientists came out openly with their analysis and put it up for study and debate by interested public of this country. People like AN Prasad, Gopalakrishnan, etc., have been keeping silent despite the plainly dangerous developments that are coming out faintly with the visit of every US delegation to India or the spineless Indian delegations to the US. This ghostly silence by the eminent pesrons is certainly most worrisome. They should come out fearlessly now with their wisdom-filled revelations and lay bare the ugly truth behind the 123-deal.

We have been working for indigenous nuke tech for more than fifty years and the kind engineering legacy and govt support we have we will take another fifty years. That why our scientist are silent. I too work in nuke industry. My friend please belive this is the era of global reorientation where stragic need suggest that US will to live upto our trust and China will be against our development.
instead of simply wasting the time it is time for the big heads have transperency and discuss the issues openly and then discuss pros and cons the either get conviced and convince and go ahead.

Yes!Congress should go ahead and sign the deal and do something good for the country.Do not worry about the chinese agents(communists) nor about self centered parties(DMK,RJD).If Congress does so ,it will come back to power again.
There is only one hinderence - Hyde Act. USA should have deal without any binding of this act. President BUSH if wish can do this , rather than only pursuing with same terms.

Govinda, Beggars cannot be choosers you see... You want nuclear fuel from abroad yet you put your own conditions.
Why will any country compromise on its own principles or priorities.
For Eg do you want to continue to export Maruti cars and SRK shows into Pakistan even if there is a major war being fought with it?
No country can give such assurances, Hyde act will stay and will be applicable. Take it or leave it. Its India who is having high expectations.
It is this foolish REDS who are goofing it all. Go thru the record of the friends of Communist china.
