Some one in this forum mentioned miltary rule. Let take a minute to ponder if this deal would have been signed if India was under miltary rule.
The anser is a BIG YES , our miltary straetgists are brilliant enough to see thru the fact that this deal will not harm our security interests but will rather make us invincible because of our growing economy which would mean growing miltary budet.
Left and BJP are a holes, Manmohan is a forward thinking statesman first and a politician next and thats why from 1991 to this day he thinks for the country's future and not for the votes like BJP a holes, who bring up the hindu-muslim divide for cheap votes.
