MSA was Union Minister in 2008 -- I suspect any intelligence/security information that he received would surely have been passed to Pakistan. Most likely the same with information that went to VP Ansari.

Congress types like Antulay, I believe, were already blaming "Saffron Terror"

Nicholson has set a two-year target of getting the security situation under control, with a goal of 80 percent of the population under the control of the U.S.-backed Afghan government — a figure he described as a “critical mass” to “drive the enemy to irrelevance.” same old nonsense the US has been...

Pls read and compare with Bharara-Khobragade. What am I missing here? The diplomats in question were UN employees with full diplomatic immunity. Ms. Khobragade was, at the time of her arrest, a consular employee -- and had less diplomatic immunity. If I recall, MEA subsequently made her a UN employ...

Jimmy Carter is a worthless has-been in the history books -- he caused more problems than he solved during his tenure, NoKo is one his lesser eff ups compared to his invasion of Afghanisthan pushed by his NSA, the mass murderer Zbigniew Brzyzenski -- which has now turned into the gift that keeps on...

In 1960, the WB was in a position to punish India if India was found to have violated the provisions of the treaty. India was dependent on WB aid. Also, WB jobs were a huge carrot for Indian IAS officers.

Not sure how the WB can punish India these days.

These guys are politicians not the masses like you and me. They see the GOP as offering more opportunity for 'privileged minorities' like Indians and Cubans. The Dems have long taken minorities for granted ("You'll never vote for the GOP anyway"). Hailey, Jindal and Ayyadurai wouldn't get...

^^^^ The Hayleys, Jindals, and now this Ayyadurai chap routinely tout the GOP as the party of opportunity and how the Democrats are the true racists. Yet, it is the GOP (including its Leader) that wants to repeal the 1967 Immigration law. If the GOP had its druthers, Hayley, Jindal, and Ayyadurai wo...

^^^ None of these people (Jindal, Hayley, Ayyadurai, etc.) would be in the USA if not for legislation passed by the Democrats and signed by LBJ. The GOP actively opposed changing the immigration laws in 1967 and many in the GOP view that law as having destroyed American culture. Talk about rank hypo...

Entire Western economy is dependent on Chinese slave labor. Everything from garden implements to IPHONEs need low-cost Chinese labor.

http://indianexpress.com/article/opinion/columns/my-journey-to-israel-4735753/ Interesting mention that Madame provided support to Israel during June 1967 war.

Just curious, Can you cite a couple of examples where citizenship has been revoked for subsequent criminal activity. I had always thought that only lying on a green card or citizenship application was grounds for revocation. Not doubting you, just an area that I have always had interest.

This is a slow, sure buildup. These are tripwire forces to assure Australia that US troops will be in the impact zone. This is to deter China and NoKo.
