US clearly does not have enough Horse Power to pull out of the deal, it may have adequate horse sense to capitalise for major economic gains and security needs.

It is no easy for some of these myopic Congress to come in terms with an emerging democracy like India. Introducing their pet notions in Hyde Act and gearing up omnibus support for it was easy, rejecting a done deed is not so.

If India accomplishes friendly neighbourhood to provide a major thrust to its development agenda, it would also be the best anti-dote against terror and promote rule of law.

For decades, US policy makers influenced Indian neighbourhood to militate against non-aligned India, now they seek to influence a friendly India against its own neighbourhood. Terror cessation needs an anti-dote, not war - the anti-dote is promoting friendly neighbourhoods and rule fo secular law.

The real test is whether Indian leadership who come in various hues would remain mired in their antiquated ideologies or set a policy course for rapid expansion of market economy and set thursters in course for social and educational development of our society. If their original motivational impulse was development this would happen, it the impulse was merely political power then this great opportunity would be frittered away. And as a nation we need to be eternally grateful to Prez. Bush for making way for this decisive turn in India's destiny.

Choosing the last option, going for a paper agreement first at executive level, in conformance to commitment he made to India on Indian soil, in contradiction to specific laws which had set the future course of action, is indeed a super human step where failure is not an option.
