It's a no brainer
by Sunil Bondalapati on Sep 21, 2005 08:22 PM   Permalink

I don't understand what the catch 22 is here for India. India needs to pick a side, which is a no brainer, USA & Israel. The USA has been giving us Billions of dollars of business every year. Thanks to the USA, the future of Millions of Indian Kids is looking bright and rosy, they are helping India in a number of ways which are not readily discernable. Israel also has been a true frind, supplying us with defence and anti-terrorism technology we desperately need. If ever India had true friends who have our best interest at heart, it is the USA & Israel.

The best interests of Israel are also the best interests of India in a lot of ways. The jewish lobbies in the USA too have been very actively helping the causes of India. And this is how we repay their hand of frienship?

Me thinks it is time we have a pragmatic foreign policy rather than have one that is coloured by idealogical blinkers.
