Our typical Indian apathy and frustration and the useless pride of 5000 years old civilization! I think India should play the game with rules set exactly the way US has set. Not the way Osama Bin Laden does. I believe today's real weapon is economy not fighter jets, tanks and AK 47's. Consider this: 1. India's forex conversion to Euro from USD, imagine $130B+ in free market! What will happen on Wall st. 2. No Re appreciation against USD (Chinese lesson, last 2 yrs Yuan has depreciated!! Yahoo Finance) 3. India builds air defense system similar to Star war prog. Its an arms race, yes. (Reagan did the same to USSR) 4. Buy out senators by economical making their voters dependent on Indian orders (China did the same) 5. Don't compromise with US. They need us otherwise they would not have offered the F-16. Remember, India can only counter China. 6. Buy oil from Arabs, keep them at war with Israel and among themselves(Iran-Iraq), sell them weapons and get the oil money back. Outsource(s/w, BPO) to India, aid Pak (win their loyalty), sell weapons to India get outsourced money back. Free lunch?? 7. Alliance with Europe, N Korea, Iran.
