I agree entirely - I have infact seen the Hyde Act as well. It is the most scary of the lot and the govt says it does not apply to India as it is a US law. Fact is that 123 cannot take place withoout the Hyde act. All 11 points uve made are absolutely right. The most scary one for me is the issue of Iran which basically means our foreign policy has to be decided in Washington not New Delhi. Very sad indeed. There are many good aspects to the deal, but there are many bad aspects as well. We dont really need the deal desperately anyway, so why are we going ahead with it when it has so many loopholes?
