I completely agree with Leftists on 123 nuclear deal. Never trust USA. It is such a country, that once they sign a deal, they use every chance to blackmail by threatening they would stop nuclear fuel supply to India. Already USA influenced India in voting against Iran. Already they stopped fuel supply to tarapur nuclear plant. Instead, we shall invest that money on our scientists to develop indigenous thorium based nuclear reactors. Our fate is that the opposition is coming from Leftists. Had it been came from Congress or BJP, we would have accepted it.

You go to darks if you are going to be with leftists. You need our IT guys to go to US or work for their projects and make India a super Software Hub in the world. When did we see companies like Infosys recognized around the world? What happened to India while we were with USSR? We went and begged US for PL 480 (wheat) at one time. Let me ask you one thing? Would you send your daughter or son to US if there is an opportunity? Do you know how many communist thugs send their daughter or sons to US? I know couple of them. Do you know why IT sector is booming? It is because there is no communist intervention. If you don%u2019t want to trust US and severe relation ship with them, our IT sector will come to a stand still. Your neighboring nations are waiting to grab the opportunity. Yes. When we have a deal, we may also loose some .Agreed. But we must see in its totality. Do not be misguided by leftists. They will hand over Arunachal Pradesh to China; sabotage India in not getting a role of a global player? They will not allow us to go ahead of the Chinese? Do you know how the communists behaved during our war with China? They were down playing the Chinese aggression. China, Pakistan, Iran, Bangladesh are so happy to see that the deal is off. You want to support Iran. Remember at the end of the day, Pakistan and Iran is one and the same countries who will point nuclear missiles to India. If you put together everything, we are better of signing the deal than going to Stone Age. We

We want more nuclear plants to support our Power shortage if we need to maintain the double digit growth. Until recently, I was proud of MM Singh since he was responsible for the economical turn around under PVN. But now I am ashamed of this spineless PM. Let us pray for some one who can stand up to the communists (who disappeared for ever in Russia, Georgia etc) or let MM clear his mistakes and come back with a determination to finish this deal.

This is going to be another Bofors, if not carefully studied before signing. We don't have to go with US on all issues. If India can only become a global player by saluting USA then it is not required. It's always give and take. USA wants the cost effectiveness of Indian IT and Chinese goods in order itself to be competitive globally. Whatever technological progress done by India so far is thru the help of USSR/Russia, when USA has put lot of sacntions on India. Where is USA when we need super computer? Where is USA when we need satelites? All our progress in defense is because of Russia.

In diplomacy you do not trust anyone blindly. You have to see what is the best for your own nation. Many US Presidents & Chinese Communist Party Chiefs or Russian Presidents will go back on their word, not to loose their credibility but to save their nation if they feel the time has come to do so. They will keep personal image, vendetta or party politics aside and act. Let us not be foolhardy to do that which some power thirsty partners like the Communists prod you to do.These Communists speak all against US, send their children to US to learn & earn, wear Arrow shirts, go to Switzerland for medical treatment- not to China or Russia-and speak about India, Freedom of Speech, Secularism and all other isms as if all the wisdom is with them. They are a set of frustrated, educated and uneducated fools, all bunched together.
