US lets down the Indian quislings
Why is it that the Pakistanis have got such spunk that our Indian lords lack? Within a day of the United States secretary of state Hillary Clinton threatening it might be destructive for Pakistan to go ahead with a gas pipeline project with Iran, Foreign Minister Hina Rabbani Khar shot back that it is not Uncle Sams business which country Pakistan cooperates with or how it defines its national interests.
What stunned me is that in the same breath Clinton also commended the Manmohan Singh government for making steps that are heading in the right direction. Clinton told the US Congressmen not to take seriously the public utterances of Indian officials regarding friendly relations with Iran or Delhis grit to keep up the oil imports from Tehran. She revealed, in essence, that Uncle Sam did some tough talking and Manmohan Singh government panicked.
Clintons statement means only this: Manmohan Singh government has taken ordinary Indians you and me for a ride by secretly complying with the US sancions against Iran while professing publicly that India will only heed the UN sanctions. I have no reason to doubt Clinton, because the US Administration takes the Congressional hearings bloody seriously.
Therefore, equally, I am inclined to believe the latest revelation by the Pentagon about the governments security policies. The Pentagon has revealed that the US Special Forces are stationed on Indian soil with regard to improving Indias counter-terrorism capabilities and in particular on the maritime domain and assisting Indias security agencies in terms of internal counter-terror and counter-insurgency challenges.
Again, the statement was made during a US Congressional hearing and there is no reason to doubt its veracity. A Congress-led government on Raisina Hill accepted US military personnels presence on Indian soil to safeguard the countrys security!
And this is for protection from those Martians from Lashkar-e-Toiba! Hahaha! Next time I see our security czars expansively chatting up on TV about busting the LeT guy roaming around in Delhi, I will know how come theyre so cocky! Its Amrika, man.
One would have thought all those scores of scams are bad enough for a lifetime. On top of it comes the revelation that the Manmohan Singh government is also duplicitous in its foreign and security policies. Imagine, inviting in foreign powers to secure the country! Mahatma Gandhi fought to get rid of blood-suckers.
Ironically, the Indian quislings are being let down by their American masters. This is of a piece with Indias tragic history. Its time our quislings read up on Mir Qasim and the East India Company.
