There is a sense of unease among the fairly large section of the population on this deal. It is not the deal in itself BUT the manner in which MMSji has handled it. A person who has been subservient and said YES for almost everything many of which was due to political compulsions rather than in the interest of the Nation suddenly rakes up the courage on a deal which neither the Country nor the Parliament has little knowledge about. He promises to do the unthinkable by saying I will first ink the deal and then place this before the Parliament. In other words many foreign nationals would be aware of the fine print before our own Parliament or the people of this country become aware of this. Thereafter should there be some genuine reservation about certain clauses little can be done about this. Therefore MMSji take the opposition and your own countrymen into confidence or else you will fall into some elaborate trap laid by Bush. Why this unseemly hurry to do the deal before Bush is leaves? Is the Agreement not with America? Do you believe that this despot would do something good for us at the cost of America? How are other close allies of USA faring including the one next door? Americans are now bombing and raiding them and where is their sovereignty? Do you forget the Mush and Bush dialogue about being partners in the fight against terrorism? Where is that Partnership? Wake up MMSji or the country will never forgive you.
