Prafool should change his name forthwith to "Shantidoot" Bidwai. How well he has portrayed the commies' concerns of an arms race - wow! a true doormat! How did Pak get the Nukes? What is common to Pak's nukes, their missiles like Ghouri, etc. - they all have the Made in China mark! He wants to believe "In reality, there is no live contact between the Indian Left and the Chinese Communist Party, over some of whose policies the Left has serious misgivings". Why do the commies go to China so frequently than any other country? If they were aware of US' plans since the start of the War on Terror why did they keep quiet till the time of signing the deal? His statement "....Left's patriotic credentials" is laughable but tries his best to assuage but the truth of the matter is they were British' informers and handed in many valiant freedom fighters, allowed illegal migration from Bangladesh, routinely kill people (PWGF, Maoists, etc).The truth is they now have Manmohan's balls in their hands and will try their best to tighten the fist thus inflicting more pain. I am not for the Nuke deal but let us not make a spectale - "Tamaasha" - of ourselves in the process.
