US and China has helped Pakistan obtain WMD
by Kris iyer on Jun 25, 2008 05:31 PM

By their various commissions and omissions, both US and China have helped Pakistan become a nuclear power. Prof. Cohen, although Jewish, may be because of it, always ends up making recommendations favourable to Pakistan.
He suggests sharing "civilian nuclear technology" with Pakistan in return for "assurances" as to its "nuclear assets". The USA is dragging India over hot coal, with FOUR DIFFERENT Agreements and "protocols" for the same "civil nuclear technology".
It pays to be a "Baymaani" and "Saithaani" now and then to command the respect of the "international community". The West would be nice to a "potential goonda" but would ignore a gentleman.
Professor Cohen is not suggesting anything new, more of the same from him. Perhaps, he should retire now. He cannot get out of the 1970s mind-set he formed as a younger scholar - equating India and Pakistan, as two squabbling powers that ought to be maintained in a "balance". A bankrupt Scholar that has caused a bankrupt American policy in SouthAsia. Perhaps, one should be blunt in saying that American foreign policy has failed in Asia and Middle-East. Nincompoops - Six feet of walking Idiocy - most of their officials and secretaries of state. Pakistan has robbed them blind of their monies for the last 60 years.
