Indo-US nuclear deal
by Jay on Dec 22, 2006 11:23 PM   Permalink

continued from earlier. The crtics of the deal should not consider US as enemy. US is a formidable enemy, US is better as a friend or at least non-partisan in the face of repeated Chinese claims on Indian territories. Instead of focusing on nucelar energy India should focus on building solar, wind and hydro power. While west is still relying on fossile fuel, India can lead the non-nuclear green energy sector. India should also focus heavily on commerce and trade with US as US does with China. Building bombs does not buy respect from west. Only reason US is dealing with India is its market and economy period. India needs to focus more on education, health care and alleviating poverty instead of spending money to pay the bills of five-star accomodation of officials working on a bill of no material significance. Under the umbrella of a nuclear deal, India also should not allow the pakistan sponsored terrorism to provoke the muslim world. I hope prgamatic Indians influence the foreign policy and the politics for the emrgence of strong and self reliant India, posing no threat to any country without evil intensions. India has to strive to imress the world with its prowess of knowledge.
