If Afghanistan and Pakistan become stable - China will be the first beneficiary of the oil from CAR. As long as CAR oil can go West it suits the US even if the US itself does not directly receive the oil.Muppalla wrote:Assuming that getting Oil for themselves is a real priority over stopping access of CA oil to other powers (specifically India) then they wouldn't operate the way they operated. Take the case of Middle east where they just went there and built those nations with massive infrastructure. Like paying massively to Mushys and abduls to clear up a vast areas of land with no-abdul zones to put pipe lines, Texaco, Chevron zones etc to Gwadar. They are capable and they could have done it by now and the alternative oil would be flowing today.Acharya wrote:The oil strategy is of two part. Get to the region with the OIL and get access. They are in Khazakh in Tbilisi and Almaty from 1993. My friend was visiting this place from the that period. The other one is to deny the oil to any other player in the region if they dont get the OIL access.
Instead they are doing such a harakiri so that the one tribe fights over the other and things like that. They are more interested in smoking out caves and drone attacks as opposed to anything else. In this approach they are ensuring that pipelines will alway remain pipe dreams. This gives credibility to my reasoning that the target is very straighforward for US and that is India.
Pakistan serves the US well as a
In this regard it is important to make Pakis understand that they are only slaves, soldiers of Mohammad slaving for the USA. If they don't like it they can choose to stop being America's ghulaam and become china's slave or remain only Allah's slaves. It serves ONLY the US to have Pakistanis allied to the US. It does not serve India. One argument that has been made on this thread is totally built up on hot air and speculation
That hot air is that Pakistan should best remain America's slave. If it becomes China's slave it will be worse for India. The choice that has been mooted on this thread is: "OK OK the US is bad for India, but China will be worse. So Indians should learn to accept what is bad for them over something that could be worse" I have not heard a more silly argument in my entire life. Clearly someone is speaking for America on BRF because only America gains in the current state of affairs. Definitely not India.
Pakistan is an unstable state where many people can influence affairs, including India. It is sheer negligence to cop out and say "Yikes! Let us leave things alone. China will be worse if the US goes". As if Pakistan is "nice" or has been nice for 60 plus years under US dominance.
India must spoil the US's party an agree to toe the US line only if the US can give India tangible gains and the prospect of non interference from its slave Pakistan in future. If the US does not control that slave it has no business in the region and really should be made to bugger off and get the hell out.
What can the US do for India?
