Saar,the indirect implication of the above is that we counterfeit dollars [Jehadi-ISI-PA currency in Yamri-khan's control] far more than we counterfeit the rupee {people's currency}.
Kammandu ruler has bankrupted the local economy-no money,no resistance.Hence,Nazi economy different from present Pakjabi begging bowl.
But counterfeiting is still fun for
revenge and employment for tiharis.
IMHO,Yamri-khan must freeze/withdraw all money & material and avoid the resulting pinch through involvement of Iran-Russia-India.
As far as the Afghan War goes,India should step up its cooperation with the erstwhile Northern Alliance and Russia,who are supposedly trying to provide a supply corridor for US/NATO forces and exercise effective military control over areas of Afghan's north and kabul.India could also help "assist" air strikes against the Taliban using bases in the region.
Now here the Great Game becomes the
Great Bargain.
Phase Zero is entirely upto Bush,as a part of a grand exit strategy [not for the troops,but for himself].Bush,Rice and Co. must bargain prices with Khatami,Menon and Putin.
After a few cups of kawa,the following might emerge:
I.
Iran:
a)To become the new
Persian Corridor style ISAF supply dock and given most of the dollars meant for
Pakistan.Road and construction projects carried out by US. In exchange,Iran opens up nuclear program with 70%+ reactors under IAEA inspection & central reprocessing facility.
b) Anti-US sloganeering and activism to be stopped with Kurdistan, hezbollah/hamas support etc. absolved and Iran's pledge to fight against the Saudi Qaeda.In exchange,IRGC is identified from terror organization list(temporarily).
c) Pipeline grid project from Iraq to Afghanisthan to be started and joined to the Central Asian grid.
?Two sorries said by Bush and Ahmedinijad regarding past speeches ("which were out of context and misreported").Meeting proposal between Livni,Mahmoud and Ahmedinijad arranged.
II.
Russia
a)Missile shield heat lessened (joint BMDs) -free political hand in CIS states and backseating in GUUAM.In return,open door policy in Caspian Sea spoils for American companies.
b)Putin to be let off to sign a Treaty of Good Neighborliness,etc. with the current Afghanistan govt.Trains and equips on soft loans Afghan & NA Army/Air Force.In return,Russia gives support on Iraq War, helps to check China's posturing and promises to reduce mafia activities.
?Bering Strait Bridge:Sarah Palin should be able to "see Russia from my house".Rail-cum-pipeline project to be started.Russia to withdraw unilateral claims over Arctic.
III.
India
a)CIA Training,equipping and support of lost covert capability (CIT-J/CIT-X) against Pakistan.New anti-Pak & covert counter-terror executive agency to permanently established by India.India pledges more visible support to Afghanistan and Iraq.
b)Abstain and tacit support regarding NA's reunion.IA ensures lessening of excess troops transferring onus to RR regiments after this.
