Indian Investments in Iran is very less compared to that of German or Japanese ^_^ US have to understand that India have various other regional compulsions, vis a vis Pakistan and their new stupid port coming up with Chinese support, as well like traditionally Iranians are more supportive of India's cause in OIC than Saudi's or other Muslim countries.
Iran has been an healthy modern democracy than any other middle east or in that case Arab states. It is stupid to see, United States closest ally in there Kuwait granting voting rights to women only last year..hehehe.. Saudis still like what they have been thousand years ago.
United States Of America had gone mad, just to maintain American Jobs in US armament factories and Oil they go haywire. My personal opinion, the world lb better off without USA than Iran.
It sucks to see, a powerless puppet like Manmohan selling our country for nothing but so called Nuclear genie. Wait, let me say something if I were to meet Manmohan. Ill just ask him one qn.. If you were to buy evrything from US with this agreement, then why the heck you invested so much in BARC or AEC or whatever all these days, wasting the blood money from tax payers like us?
He is one of the worlds very few rarest stupid leaders who support Bush. He himself hated by majority Americans as the worst president they ve ever had...

I want to react very strongly to your opinion about nuclear deal. From the rest of your message, you seem to be a sober guy and hence little shocked to see this particular opinion about nuke deal. I'd guess you havent read the text of nuke deal and Manmohan singh's team have done a very good job though not the best.
Nuke deal will be with NSG-international community and not just US. US was just a good starting/entry point. Infact, you'll observe that we'll be buying most of the uranium from France, Russia & Aus and not US. France & Russia are already supplying us with nuclear material but in very limited amounts.
Now, to talk about investments in BARC & AEC, they are also doing decent job though not a very good job. BARC & AEC require "fuel" -- you cant create fuel!!!.. However, the alternative is to use thorium and for research on thorium based reactor, you need studies based on uranium based reactor too. And, most importantly, you need nuclear fuel until our scientists get ready with the thorium based reactor. Scientists just cant develop a reactor out of their hat. It requires good amount of research and you should applaud the scientists work till now given that India was under sanctions for the past 30 years.. And this nuclear deal will help remove that sanctions and expedite research on thorium based reactor.
And, I understand your emotional comments like "selling country" etc.... That is not at all true..infact, you've been mislead.. There is nothing being

That's where democracy provides the checks and balances. Every single leader who opposed Bush during Iraq war won the general elections- Schroeder, Putin, Chirac..Every single supporter had their vote shares drastically reduced (such as Blair).. Unfortunately because of conservative brainwashing and FUD around gay marriages, etc that did not happen in USA. I live in the liberal Left part of USA (San Francisco to be precise)..To lot of residents in SFO, Bush=Stalin=Hitler with no difference..History has been fair to Hitler-the guy eventually died at the end of the war. This SOB, George W. will retire in his Texas ranch after presiding over the massacre of millions.
I would like to pull your head out of liberal sand and set the record straight. Your statement that "Every single leader who opposed Bush during Iraq war won the general elections- Schroeder, Putin, Chirac..Every single supporter had their vote shares drastically reduced (such as Blair)." is full of holes. Every single leader??Perhaps this may open your eyes Schroder was elected in 98 before Bush came to office and lost to Pro Bush Merkel during Bush's tenure. Chirac was elected president in 1995 before Bush came to office and his liberal party lost to Pro Bush candidate Sarkozy. Putin (elections in Russia are a farce anyway) was elected in May 2000 while Bush was in office but there was no 9/11, Afghanistan or Iraq at the time. As for Blair, he was elected in 97 ( was Clinton's buddy), again, well before Bush came to office and joined hands in the war on terror. Equating Bush with Hitler is a bit unfair. Hitler massacred 6 million Jews and would have conqured the world had America not stepped in. On the other hand, Bush got involved because of unprovoked mass murder of 3000 civilians by Arab terrorists. So stop worshiping Hitler and come to your senses. It is ok to not to like an individual but comparing him to Hitler is ludicrous

India should learn something from China. We should stictly determine our foreign policy on the basis of our National Interest.
If it is our interest to have ties with Iran, then so be it. It has become a trend nowadays that whatever american is right. No way, they are may times wrong with their foolish imperialist tones. India has the might to stand on its own. They do need any body.

SONIC, can you tell me what inventions have BARC, ARC or for that matter DRDO have made? They cant figure out a plane for 20 years for gods sake. Its in-style to bash US, but had there been no US, Indians will still be ruled by Japanese.

So, what's bad if we are ruled by the Japanese. Now we are ruled by the yankees, who are also not better in any way.

If you think we are being ruled by Yankees, then what about the claim made by some of your friends here that we are the world's largest democracy?? We didnt elect US to be our ruler, did we?
