After dilly-dallying for two months on the pull-out issue and holding the Central Government to ransom over the N-deal for more than 10 months, the left parties have finally timed their withdrawal brilliantly - there could not have been a more ideal moment for them.
What better way to do it than when the Indian Prime Minister is not in India and is away on a foreign trip and is meeting the world's most powerful leaders on the sidelines of the G-8. It is clearly intended to cause maximum embarrassment & humiliation for the Indian PM. They have also managed to show some mundane statement from the PM as the immediate reason for the withdrawal. (Everyone knows that IAEA is the next step in the N-Deal). They should get two pats on their back from their masters in China for doing this !!
Their move will also get great coverage in the world media, no doubt. Let them savour every moment of it - because I doubt if they will ever get a second chance after the next elections, whenever that is.

Left is bunch of traitors, no doubt. But those who support this deal are doing great harm to national interest. India and no country should go for nuclear energy. US has not installed single nuclear plant in last 15 years. Why?

Sorry, but your statment is incorrect. The US is still planning more nuclear reactors at home. Even last year (2007), applications have been filed for building new nuclear reactors there (Eg. South Texas Project).
Intially, the US which is the largest producer of commercial nuclear power in the world had OVERESTIMATED its own requirements. In 1960, they estimated 1000 reactors by year 2000 but there are only 104 functional reactors now. A lot of orders had to be cancelled and some had to be stopped after the installation. Hope you get it now..

Man Mohan is responsible for all the provocation to left. For the last 10 months,He & congress always said that they will take decision to approach the International Atomic Energy Agency over the nuclear deal, after conscience in UPA-left joint meeting only. And on his way to Japan ManMohanSingh announced that he will very soon approach IAEA & N deal will be signed certainly. It is like his final decision.
He make such a insulting remark in the plane...
Left got self respect.They had no committment to support a liar Prime Minister at any cost.
