US Military aid is restricted to around $300 Million - rest is for USAID to utilize for developmental projects. The second point is that Congress has the authority to restrict the $300 Million military aid and if it does so then in that case entire contract value has to paid for by Pakistanis...

It depends on where the battle would be fought - if it is IOR for navy or Mainland India then I would say India has an edge however elsewhere France would destroy India. To be honest except for US, rest are regional powers. As for NATO - there is a limit to how far it would get involved in...

US would remain numero uno for this century atleast barring thermo nuclear destruction of the complete civilization. Most people fail to realize the gap b/w US and the rest of the world and the cold blooded hyper pragmatic determination of US to keep it that way.

I am unable to comprehend the rest of your post and its relevance. However regarding the Texas analogy - you ever been to Texas? Lol we have always had people who would like nothing better than to secede from the US and form the Great State of Texas. For Texans,Texas come before US. So wrong...

Harsh but true. I don't get it why India is so hot and bothered. India buys so much from Russia despite US imposing sanctions on many of the Russian MIC but you don't see US whining about it to India - India should extend the same courtesy to US when it helps out it's allies with some jets out...

Point taken. I had failed to realize that India is in kind of perpetual war with Pakistan. Didn't know situation was so dire though and when I visited India/Pakistan the situation was vastly different b/w the two. Some places in Pakistan looked like a war zone with Military grade security but...

Ah! the times when V day used to stand for Victory day. How can you be married and a Buddha? Wasn't Buddha celibate?

Well to be honest - In US the freedom of speech has little to no boundaries and so Hailing Osama or Hitler would at worst invoke disgust but you won't see FBI shoving warrants up their throats. But yeah there are red lines which shouldn't be crossed - opinions and sloganeering is harmless but...

:o:Yeah Well! I wish they were taught about contraceptives instead. It boggles the mind to see how many they are - If they were a middle income or developed country capable of sustaining their population then it would have been fine but seeing millions of them living in the sub human conditions...

Yeah well! still I would say it is better unless there is some material evidence of their involvement as an accessory to crime but of-course you folks know better.

I would rate go to Gitmo than suffer through a Bollywood musical but then each to his own. No skin off the Indian noses :)

Indians have an exaggerated sense of self-importance. What China offers - a complete end to end solution with ease of doing business without Pesky labor laws and land acquisition hassles a messy and corrupt democracy like India can never offer. As for services they are cheap and many - hence...

Who is Afzal Guru? I get the general gist that he was a terrorist but all this attention is only likely to make him a martyr and a polestar for some anti-establishment peeps. In US we have some rednecks too who still root for Timothy McVeigh but at large the Govt ignores them and they fade away...

One has to only look at WW2 history to know how hard some of the immigrants fought. Though some exceptions are likely - At large the immigrant community has been at the vanguard of US Military. Cheers!

Correct. The capability exists but there has been a lack of intent due to mutual agreement to refrain from weaponization of space. Although that might be changing in near future considering N. Korea has access to Space now. It won't take much for them to put a huge TNT payload in one of their...

New contract in this case or fulfilment of the old one? Also are the birds coming from the boneyard or are they freshly minted
