India permitted CIA spy planes to use Indian air base to spy china

What could india offer to US?...Brains I guess

Cheerleading!

That is the problem with India - brain drain.

India ought to keep their brightest in India to develop the country, instead of working in the call centers or migrate overseas.

Indian Americans most educated, richest, says Pew report - Times Of India

I can list innumerable CEO/CFO's of Indian origin leading or led fortune 500 companies.

We are a billion+ country with an average age of just 23 years, while the world is aging. So I guess, in future, our biggest exports would be our brains.

As the Canadian above said, you are changing the subject at will.

(Although he mistakenly attributed that charge at me rather than you.)

Master, lapdog, whatever colorful terminology you want to use - the fact is that India is not string-pulled by USA as Pakistan is, Inia is not bullied and browbeaten by USA as Pakistan is, India's relations with USA are strictly in its own self interest, and India is not the country from which USA takes off drones to kill that country's people.

We have been a lot less reliant on USA than our enemies have. And when it comes to being surveyed upon, pak fares much worse than India, and China doesn't do to well either.

And being surveyed does not equate to being a "lap dog" as you seem to think.

Now you can either grow up and accept the reality that most countries spy on each other, and that all countries act in their own interest, and that only a few countries have the dubious distinction of having American aircrafts operate against them from their airspace against themselves, or you can keep up with your silly catchphrases like "lapdog" and so on with no regard for reality. It's your choice.

Yes, 50 years back we allowed USA to operate spy planes to collect intel on China and her nuclear programs. We gained a lot from that, as did the americans. Deal with it. I does not make us their lapdogs, because there are some countries that TODAY let USA fly aircrafts off their territory to bomb their own people. THAT'S what being a lapdog is about.

Let’s admit it. India is not even a bleep on the US election radar this season.

Russia and China on Thursday vetoed a new UN Security Council resolution that would have slapped new sanctions against President Assad's regime, while India was among the 11 countries that voted in favour

India co-operates with America when it is in her interest to do so. In the 65 and 71 wars with Pakistan, America was actively assisting Pakistan. The Bangladesh liberation war would have concluded a lot sooner, had the USA not supported Pakistan when it conducted pogroms in Bangladesh, dubbed "operation searchlight". The US even sent the USS enterprise into the Indian ocean to intimidate India, and it was only the presence of a few soviet nuclear sbmarines that kept them out of the picture.

Even today, all of Pakistan's cutting edge military hardware is American donated, with the rest of the not-so-cutting-edge (to put it charitably) stuff coming from china. Both cutting edge and crappy stuff being obtained through baksheesh of course, by that bankrupt country.

If there is any American lap-dog in the region, it is not India. It is a certain country that laps up handouts and charity and military "assistance" (read charity) from the USA while simultaneously hating and cursing the USA.

LMAO see the bold part if that is true then I take it usa is doing more harm to india than china but I never see Indians complaint about it instead they constantly kissing up to usa if that is not slave behaviour I seriously don't know what is

Yes, brain drain is a problem, but in a way, I guess it is benefiting India because 'brain' is an extension of its soft power and Indians are making a mark in the world, apart from the large forex they are providing to India.

India will require 'brain' if it has to go to the next level of development, but more importantly and immediately it require capital. Capital will in turn attract 'brain' and it is vicious circle.

India is a large, young and vibrant country with lots and lots of entrepreneurship culture. I have no doubt India is going to benefit immensely from the demographic dividends, precisely because of its entrepreneurship culture.

As far as proving your worth in a foreign country, you can read my previous post.

well it is your opinion

but some other people are not looking at it this way

But I am not going into that any further than this:

India needs to think out-of-box to feed its population 10 years later - See more at: India needs to think out-of-box to feed its population 10 years later

Unlike China where your government had major hand in its economic revival, India grew inspite of its government. But the article you have provided assumes mojor hand of its government in feeding its population. Indians are accustomed to lack of governance and can survive the toughest times.

As I said our entrepreneurship culture would help India reap the benefit of its young demographics

In July 1957, U.S. President Dwight D. Eisenhower requested permission from Pakistan's Prime Minister Huseyn Suhrawardy for the U.S. to establish a secret intelligence facility in Pakistan and for the U-2 spyplane to fly from Pakistan. The U-2 flew at altitudes that could not be reached by Soviet fighter jets of the era; it was believed to be beyond the reach of Soviet missiles as well. A facility established in Badaber (Peshawar Air Station), 10 miles (16 km) from Peshawar, was a cover for a major communications intercept operation run by the United States National Security Agency (NSA). Badaber was an excellent location because of its proximity to Soviet central Asia. This enabled the monitoring of missile test sites, key infrastructure and communications. The U-2 "spy-in-the-sky" was allowed to use the Pakistan Air Force portion of Peshawar Airport to gain vital photo intelligence in an era before satellite observation.[4]

This show how backward india is behind china, let me tell you something 20 years ago we Chinese did the same as you guys we bragged how well Chinese oversea is doing in other countries, even then the oversea Chinese we talking about is the richest man in Malaysia , Vietnam, Thailand ect ect , after 20 years I just don't believe you feel so proud of a few Indians getting only a well paid job in usa and today we dont really talk about this subject any more becoz we can get just as rich if not more in china than oversea Chinese doing in other countries.

 

[tranquilium]

Did you cared to read the article. This was once instance, post 1962 debacle. Considering the way China backstabbed, it is surprising that we did not allowed it much earlier. Enemy of enemy is a friend, isn't it.

Considering what you are doing in Pakistan and all around India, expect much more severe stuff going forward.

Erm, you launched an attack on us, got lured into a trap and got your *** kicked. I am pretty sure that counts as a feign, frontal parry and counter-strike.
