Excellent analysis

A very apt and timely article to call the bluff of Manmohan Singh and his crony advisers. They are the one putting India into a path of great danger and subservience. The US govt has followed a foreign policy which has the worst track record in modern history in promoting democracy or justice. Actually its abuse of power in achieving its imperial ambitions is no secret. Where possible by use of force (eg Iraq), and in many cases, by directly or indirectly (via sponsoring rebel groups) toppling democratically elected govts (eg, many latin american countries) and install puppet dictators (Saddam inclusive). Whereever explicit coercion is not possible, use of carrots (like nuclear deal to India); notice how they start showing the stick when India tries to follow an independent foreign policy vis-a-vis Iran. Domination of the world by making most countries (incl ours) its client state is the grand strategy for maintaining its hegemony.
