Well i agree we cant let our own beliefs and grudges come in the way of progress of our nation...but at wat cost will all this progress come at?
Just because we want to be a superpower doesnt mean we give up in what we believe.Our nuclear programme right from the onset combined civil and military programmes...
Now just because USofA is holding a carrot in front of us(various policies) we let open our top secrets to the IAEA? Well as of today 14 reactors have been designated as civil and will be open to internatiol agenices for monitoring...even our sciencetists are against this!!!
The US cant stand the ennormous economic growth that both India and China are witnessing...but they very well know that China will never side with them...but a slighty weaker('political will' wise) India will...
We want military hardware...aircraft etc etc....
the 126 medium range fighter jets India wants with start up the assembly lines at Lockeed Martin(or some1 else) if the deal goes USA's way...its the mother of all aircraft deals....and the aircraft the US is offering quite old technology i.e the F16's and F18's...the very same F16's which the US sells to Pak.
Why dont they offer the F22 Raptor?? Why dont they offer a proposition to jointly develop technology?
The US knows their sanctions didnt work...so now they want to offer a little but have max control over what we do.....
Why cant we stand up for ourseleves like Iran did???
We all have to believe that the world bows in front of the rising sun..at the moment, that rising sun is USA...russia is long dead..and to counterbalance the powerzone with China and Pakistan, we need a powerful ally..the answer cud well be US..
C'mon man.....USA helping India against Pak????? this must a joke...
US doesnt want an ally...they want a 'strategically located' partner...so when their military hardware is circulating with the Indian Armed Forces , they can demand to put up military bases within India....
