Reading all the previous messages gives me an impression that all of you are bent on proving that the left are antinationals.I would like to differ.Have anyone of you read the 123 deal document?I am not going to elaborate on it except the fact that it clearly demands India not to take any foreign polcy decision that is incongruent to US interests.I would like to know whether friendship with uncle Sam is more important than retaining our decade old tradion of nonalignment and sovereignty?After 60 years of independece this deal threatens us of a new colonial subjugation.I beieve no deal is more important than our selfrespect as an independent nation and the left is right in opposing it .Rahul, Agartala, Tripura
