Hand Me Dows. Mera Bharat Mahaan ??

It really pains that a country that has the History of Making Ships as best as it can be has to take the old rusty Junks from thre Yanks.
Can we not make a LST ? But then a countrey "Defacto Ruled by a Foriegner and Rubber stamped by a Semi-New Yorker" can only do this.
Who Knows what more are we to get from these Bullies and the day will not be far away when we may have to take the Yanks Say-so to even take a wink.
History knows that The Yanks have always betrayed You when you want them most. -- KOREA,VIETNAM,IRAN,IRAQ,ARABIAn Region and Now in Pakistan/Afghanistan. They are a Selfish lot.
GOD SAVE INDIA !!

The USS Trenton is not an LST. This is why your "gov" doesn't want to give you a new ship. The USS Trenton is an LPD (Landing Platform Dock). If you do not know what you are buying then get out of the store. Further more 99% of America would sooner let all of the countries you listed including yours kill each other off meanwhile guarding our own boarders to keep people like you out. Don't blame all of America for the actions a government officals which most of the people do not like to begin with, including me. And yes I do vote but over here is not much different than other places "Have money will politic".

Maybe you need to educate yourself so you don't come across so ignorant. The Jalashva was an LPD not an LST. Two completely different classes of ships. And it wasn't a OLD RUSTY JUNK...your country seemed to see what YOU'RE to blind to see. For $48,000,000 U.S. your navy got a ship and 6 Sea King helos. When the ship left Norfolk in Aug of 07, she was very sea worthy and up to any task.
The 'Yanks have always betrayed.'? You need to get your head outta your ass. What has YOUR country done to aid other around the world? You don't give a rat's ass about your OWN people, you keep them down because they're beneath you.
We kept South Korea from falling to North Korea. How did we betray them? Vietnam was a fiasco brought on by our own inbred politicians. Those other backwards countries don't dserver our attention.
We've done more in the past 100 years than your shit hole of a country has done in its whole history! You even let a piss ant island take over your whole country because you were too weak to kick their asses out! Pretty sad when a country as big as yours can't even build its own navy, then some inbred ass like you bad mouths the strongest country in the world! How pathetic you are! Go eat a cow!
