Actually the deal is signing Non-Proliferation Treaty opened for signature on July 1, 1968.which is made to limit the spread of nuclear weapons.189 countries already signed..and 5 countries ( USA,Russia,UK,china and France ) already have nuclear weapons.4 countries not signed (india,pakistan,north korea and israel).India and Pakistan both possess and have openly tested nuclear bombs. Israel has had a policy of opacity regarding its own nuclear weapons program. North Korea acceded to the treaty, violated it, and later withdrew.These 4 countries face a ban on getting nuclear fuel and technology from other countries).Now bush administration taking interest to lift the ban from india and make india sign the treaty.
The danger is that pakistan have not signed it yet.They say they will do after india signs.Also USA and other 4 countries who owns the weapons have the right to do inspection on other countries by force if they suspect that the other country posess a nuclear weapon.The same they did with IRAQ ,claiming that they posess chemical weapon.Also if pakistan dont sign treaty ,they can do all sorts of nuclear tests and america wont mind that since america is unfairly suppying arms and funds to pakistan even if they know that pakistan is creating lots of terrorist activities against india. Thats why bush administration is trying their best to make india sign the treaty.I dont know why indian administrators are not taking note of these points and going ahead with the deal.

The inspection of weapons in Iraq was approved by a UN resolution. Iraq used chemical weapons against its own people. So, that case is different.
There is a change in america's perception of pakistan since 9/11 ... pakistan is now on the weapons watch list ... the arms supplied to pakistan are for fighting the taliban and so, they are not getting any new fighter jets or anything that could be dangerous to american interests in the neighborhood.

Dude u forget one thing 4 America Israel and India is same.To balance the power of Arams they hv no alternative than Israel , same way to balance to power of China they do not have any choice than India.This is simply a Power game ...no Love relations count here. Till China is NOT disintigrated like Russia, they need India.After that they will need Pakistan to disintrigate India.Presently Pakistans role is a political role and not Power role in world economic games.
