I presume by Russia’s colonialism after WWII, you refer to the “Yalta betrayal”?
Where Roosevelt asked for Soviet support in the U.S. Pacific War against Japan, specifically invading Japan proper in return for which he gave in to Stalin’s demand for a Russian sphere of political influence in Eastern Europe as essential to the USSR’s national security.
That is a proof of America’s betrayal of their allies just after the War in Europe. Thanks for bringing it here, it just confirms my point.

The Invasion of Afghanistan?
1979, the Afghan government had themselves requested the introduction of Soviet forces in Afghanistan. They requested Soviet troops to provide security and to assist in the fight against the Mujahideen rebels.
1978, Moscow and Kabul had signed a bilateral treaty of friendship and cooperation that permitted Soviet deployment in case of an Afghan request.

The mujahideens were created by the Americans. And now the Americans have themselves “Invaded Afghanistan” to fight them.

I would suggest you get the historical facts correct and support your comments on my site with some reference or evidence. And please read India-US 123: keep our enemies closer and the links for there on to learn for your self the truth about the Soviets in Afghanistan.

No country that manufactures N-bomb can ever be a legitimate target if they have not used it against anyone. To possess a N-bomb is the biggest deterrent to being run over by bullies like USA.

IAEA has clearly stated that Iran does not have any nuclear bombs, neither will they have enough reprocessed material to have a bomb within 1-2 years. So America’s allegations are again a dodgy “Iran has WMD” deception.

What steps have America taken to make safe the Pakistani N-bomb, that is touted as the “Islamic” bomb. Why can Pakistan have a N-bomb, but not Iran. By your logic, US should be immediately bombing Pakistan?

Musharraff has thumbed his nose at America, given refuge to alQaeda, maintained friendship with China, has manufactured and has held on to a nuclear bomb, passed on N-technology and parts to Libya and Iran, and America can’t do much!! about Pakistan except keeping them friends. What is a “friend” by your definition? Someone who will not shoot you from the front but stab you in the back? And you will trust America when they continue to call Pakistan an ally and give them billions every year??

So what they cannot do to Pakistan, they can do it to Iran? Unprovoked and pre-emptive strike, maybe nuclear another Hiroshima and Nagasaki. That is double standards.

The Taliban is America’s creation, and now their enemy. If China is helping to arm the Taliban it is obviously going through pakistan, and if the American soldiers die because of it, America has no one else to blame.

I am happy for Iran to have a N-bomb. If having a n-bomb is the best option to deter unilateral attacks on sovereign states, then let every country have one. That will stop the bullies sitting in their armchairs and killing civilians thousands of miles away.

America has created a monster next door to us, they better control it asap. If America is not careful, that Pakistani “Islamic” bomb will be deployed against them. Know what? it is not a case of if, but when.

Sorry GranderBharat, I cannot buy into your logic.
Any friend and mentor of Pakistan, is a two faced reptile.

Its true america can get away with most things.But bombing india is one thing they cannot without retrobution.I find ur concentrating too much on iran. I dont care what iran and usa do to each other.India should trade with both america and iran and maximise its benefits.

America cant doo much about Pakistan.the pakistani nuclear arms are being spread through china. The only thing Ameria can do is keep the regime friendly.

I read today china is passing lot of weapons to the taliban.I feel china is agitating india by putting the left china leaning parties into full swing.I find the communists a curse to the nation.

Also another thing,

suppose iran does get nuclear weapons.What would you prefer Little Indian, a neighbourhood with Pakistan and Iran both having nuclear weapons with means to deliver to india??? Or only india and Pakistan having nuclear weapons?

I have been speculating on what the worst scenario will be. What may happen if we sign the contract. You are speculating on what we MAY GET AWAY with if we sign up and then “default”.

The choice for us is to decide what is the safe option. When first given the nuclear technology, did Iran ever think their nuclear reactors would ever get bombed? They have broken no treatie or policies. Do you believe the Americans are incapable of ever bombing us?

Say Pakistan, like the Israelies, keeps shouting we will nuke them, or say we have another war over Kashmir, that takes us to another nuclear confrontation. What steps are the American’s taking to control Pakistan’s nuclear proliferation?

NONE. Why? They are free to do whatever they wish.

Any government which sends our troops to iran will fall!!

Its political suicide. No indian politicain is dumb enough(politically) to do that.

If a congress goverment sends troops to iran they loose their muslim vote bank to the likes of lalu mayawati etc

If the BJP sends troops, they will be slated by the indian people. Their allies like jayalalitha wont allow it.

Forget the left.They hate america.

So America may want us to send troops.The indian politicians will cover their own seats first rather than please america.

(b) If suppose america did somehow decide to attack India without india helping them invade any country.Tell me who is willing to step up for india. Russia maybe?? but only through moral support.

(c) return of fuel “lol” little indian we already did not return the fuel once in the 1960s (General electic plant Kanpur i think, not sure)
the best america did then is sanctions. Face it then the indian military was nothing as compared to what it is now.We can a GLSV laucher from our space program. What makes you think that we are not capable to reponding with an ICBM of our own??(wont be as devastating as a US one but still)

Shall we consider the worse possible scenario?

I am not looking at the deal in isolation, but on the background of America’s dollar hegemony and their seriously flawed foreign policy. And not forgeting their blatant double standards.

I have been reading and writing about this for a while now.

America has to destroy Iran, either through isolation or with Nukes, to PRESERVE THE DOLLAR as petrocurrency. They need allies.
It is not a matter of IF, but WHEN. For them it is a matter of life or death, dollar survives as the (petro) fiat currency or USA becomes a very poor nation.

IRAQ was with british help, they need to drag in someone for targeting IRAN. They cannot rely on Pakistan on this.

We are the donkeys, the deal is the carrot for now.
The President every year will decideand report to the Congress if we have been compliant with America’s double standards policies of N- Non Proliferation (read Iran).

If we do not, the deal will be terminated, and we will be asked to return materials and technology. That is almost impossible.

Can fully functioning reactors (is it 16 or 20) be shut down, and every ounce of reprocessed radioactive material be transported and returned in safety, avoiding human and environmental disasters?

And if India does test and are unable to return the technology and fuel, our N-reactor sites will become LEGITIMATE targets, and gets bombed, killing hundreds and thousands of civilions; ie collateral damage. The American’s will find excuses to make us look like a rogue state. Maybe threatening their ally Pakistan.

Remeber IRAN’S NUCLEAR PROGRAMME was started in 1953, after the CIA-supported coup deposed democratically-elected Prime Minister Mohammed Mossadegh. It was the Americans who put Shah (King) Mohammad Reza Pahlavi in power. By 1957, the West judged the regime sufficiently stable and friendly that nuclear proliferation would not become a threat.

Many years and governments later, Iran is facing a genuine attack by US-nukes. Not because they want to develop nuclear bombs. For no other reason than breaking away from the ‘petro dollar’ and starting the Iranian Oil Bourse to sell gas and oil in euros. “An unforeseen circumstance” if there is any?

Remember Saddam Hussain, the American friend in their ‘war’ against Iran? Then Saddam invaded Kuwait and eventually chose to sell Oil for Euros. He was invaded without UN sanction, captured and hanged.

What Iraq has gone through, what Iran is facing today for not toeing American line, India will face tomorrow. And there is no going back, no-one to turn to for help.

Can the American really nuke a country? You bet. They are the only one’s with the experience. This is not fiction, it is very much possible. America has DONE IT ALL BEFORE.

Anyone who looks at the Hyde’s Act and the 123 Agreement in isolation is missing the point.
Anyone who looks at the 123 Agreement alone is either criminally selfish, or an absolute idiot.

In your opinion what are the adverse consequences as far as India is concerned?
