Most people here view nuclear deal with communal angle. Muslims think this deal will strengthen USA, and so oppose it. Hindus also think this deal will strengthen USA who is fighting muslims and so support the deal.
Muslims will say this deal is against Indias interests and so they oppose it. Hindus will say this deal is in favour of India and they support it.
But many BJP followers are in real trouble here. On one hand they cannot support congress and at the same time they cannot oppose the deal. What I find is that most of those young BJP sympathisers are pretentending to be MMS supporters here, though they are anti-congress.
Why all this complication? Please try to understand if this deal will help India to what extent and what losses we will suffer. then come to a judgement - is some 20000MW electricity generated by 2015-2020 worth the risks - Possible Security Council miltary action or sanctions, Always keep US happy in order to keep getting the fuel, risk of fuel suppy stoppage after we spent all the money to build the power plants ...and so on.

No complication.. If US wants to control india, it need not sign any deal... It need not have any Hyde act.... The way our parliamentarians are behaving, it seems anybody can buy them...

Your last para tells all. That is why BJP is opposing the deal in it's present form. There is no confusion in young and old. The show is of how badly you long for the kickbacks and to what extant you want to stoop.
