As conspiracy theories goes how about this scenario?

With Kazari unlikely to sign the defence pact the only way for the great Khan to have some presence/assets in the region is via cooperation with India - either overt or covert - as this article says. Now if I was Paki-pasand and knowing that 2014 is the crucial year for both Amir Khan (AF withdrawal) and India (elections) what would be nice way to throw a spanner in the works? Nothing permanent but just so that there's enough confusion and distrust to ensure that there's no cooperation/agreement on the lines suggested in the above report in the small window of opportunity that there is before Indian elections and Khan's withdrawal?

Maybe by looking at linkages with Om Baba's anti-slavery move with the DK affair we are being blind sided?

I still can't wrap my head about why this was a criminal as opposed to civil case. That and the treatment meted out to DK could be construed - in this conspiracy theory mode - to be a very well calculated move to provoke Bharat. It was deliberatly made ham handed enough to ensure a reaction as in previous incidents there were no reactions. Just think of it if DK's arrest had been done in a discrete manner or if DK was declared PNG and deported or if this was a civil case which could be settled like the Prabhu Dayal one (again I must put the caveat emptor that the Dayal case was, to me, plain and simple extortion) then would there be so much hulla bulla?

Could it be the hulla bulla was the real objective of this whole tamasha?

Note: This scenario would nicely explain the role of the Khalistanis

Shows the level of expertise if someone like Daniel Markey can consider such a proposal and think it will be received with any seriousness in India. Sad, and bordering on the idiotic.

If they are proposing anything, it should be a joint base(s) in Afghanistan... that may have some merit.

Point is would munna have agreed to give US a base in India even without the DK flap? How soggy some pak-pasand's bottom got does not matter IMHO.

Base never. But cooperation, especially the covert kind? You know things like intelligence sharing, listening posts etc? Who knows. But with the DK flap it's unlikely that even the covert kind of cooperation will happen. The DK case has managed to get the normally unflappable babus very angry and politicos are unlikely to enter this kind of arrangement as there is bound to be information leak which would crucify the ruling party.

Of course this is just a kanspiracy theory so take it with a pinch of salt.

PS: I can't seem to find any rational explanation for the treatment meted out to DK - not the charge itself - but the pre-arrest treatment. I think it was firmly meant to send out a message. Question is to what effect?

US never suggested acquiring base in India
PTI May 28, 2003, 08.29pm IST

MUMBAI: Expressing optimism that "there was a bright future" for US-India defence deals, US Ambassador Robert D Blackwill on Wednesday denied that America had ever suggested acquiring a base in India.

"US has never suggested in acquiring a base here. On the contrary, there is significant reduction in US bases due to our military hardware and manifold increase in aircraft reach," Blackwill told a press conference here....

Above are words by Robert Blackwill in 2003 .
Now Ex massa ambassador Blackwill seems to be currently part of track 2 diplomacy with NaMo (on behalf of CFR and presumably the massa establishment) .
If these are the cretinous ideas that sections of CFR can come up and are airing for reactions, they should kiss their hopes for a preelection "deal" goodbye.

Elementary my diya WatsondasagaruSinghs:

Whuphor Massa needs India when they **have*** munna

U cannot take Paco and cohort into the Land of The Pure. Nor can you smuggle veggie burgers because they are not halal - they do cavity search as routine part of airport "entry" procedures because many of their citijens prefer to bring their SmartPhones up their musharrafs anyway and their soosai-bums in their VIPS, Ayesha's Secrets etc.

shiv: u said it. That and the Vote Bank. Let me repeat: Over the years, while the sdre went to school and burned the midnight oil and got jobs as DOOs, injineurs etc, the munnas were busy GUBOing, giving parties and generally kissing musharrafs up their way into the depths of the media, State Department and other arms of the GOTUS. So now DupliCity has an absolute wealth of Pakis in mid-to-high-level positions. So do Noo Yoik Crimes and See Enn Enn. They thus control the media and the tactical brilliance of the GOTUS. In Malloostani verse, this was expressed clearly many saal pehle:

evite thirinjonnu nokkiyalum
Avitellam pootha pakkikal matram

But I think there are more Pakis in such positions in America than there are total in Kerala.

I disagree that US does not know that Strip search is a serious humiliation and cavity search is rape. Or that they are bullies mindlessly exercising their power. They knew very well what they intended to do and they did with a lot deliberation and planning.

I don't know why CFR wants to make it overt while they already have moles/voles/agents in intelligence agencies and police.

See how they exfiltrated Richards family just as they did with Rabinder Singh and sent David Headley to advise and recce the LeT.

Indian NSAs always facilitate US covert actions in India:Mishra with Rabinder Singh, Neroyanan with David Headley and Menon with Richards family.

So why for you need a overt operation? Markey seems to be headless now.

Read Gates again:

Then, in an amazing critique of America's defense "thinkers," Gates said he told the military to look at our decisions of the last 40 years -- "We've never once gotten it right."

The CFR is a fascist ultra-right wing entity that has enormous influence upon US foreign policy.The number of scandals attributed to it and the role of its members is legion.From the JFK assassination,etc. the CFR is a tainted entity .The plan to absorb India into the US's order of battle using us as cannon fodder,"slaves" as Shiv has said,easy to influence,buy and dominate,as the British proved centuries ago,using knavish Miir Jafars,and our equivalent of quislings today,are deconstructing India as an independent sovereign state and whose function today is to subvert the GOI and destablise India when facing external threats.Once US individuals and intel entities are allowed to operate from Indian soil,our betrayal of the nation begins.Who needs bases when you have subverted the entire state by placing your puppets in power?It shows how far the rot has eaten into the Indian frame when after the DK outrage,some Indians in the media and govt. still describe the US as our principal ally.

The old saying by Voltaire holds good especially for the US:"Lord, protect me from my friends; I can take care of my enemies."

UB. Was reading Wall Street Journal (Free issue dont worry!) weekend edition. It had a story on how some US footwear maker has managed to revive shoe making(actually flip flops or hawaii chappals) in some remote part of US by using automation. The key point that caught my attention was that low labor costs abroad had driven the products out of USA.

The takeaway was US is going to raise the cost of mfg worldwide and hence the SD overdrive to bring about labor and wage reforms world wide.

Its a slow boil campaign to restore US labor markets. This tagging India and other low labor wages with the slavery ephithet is part of that campaign. PPOs will willingly get on that bandwagon to get a two fer (Anti-India and pro-US)

Philip, Dont get a stroke.
The CFR trial balloon could be to make TSP more amenable to the drawdown. It only makes it overt what is alrdeay there based on evidence of Rabinder Singh, honey traps with immunity, Richards and US friendly Indian NSAs in Delhi. All backed by racist diplomats.

Maybe one of the protagonists here has all along been a RAW agent, planted from Day 1. I mean, look at the laser-focus of her actions. See the dark glasses in photos. The mismatch between the stated Bangalore, Kerala origin and the Hindi in the letters. The ease with which she did the disappearance - and stayed below the radar in NYC for months... the convincing "legend" that made no less than the inestimable PB of NYC rush in to file charges.

Now she has melted away into the depths of the GOTUS' Witless Protection program? Infiltrated the depths of the US Embassy BDS, maybe even petted Paco. Infiltrated the Khalistanis? Met all the Directors of Safe Horizons? And the top Pakis in the SD? Maybe a WH visit in the near future with the great A.Mays to get the BO handshake... Just a thought...

Hope I don't get banned for stumbling on Classified Info...

No question of granting the Americans a base, etc period. Not for this or any other reason.

If US could not tackle Haqqani network or LeT from withing Afghanistan what are the chances they will be successful operating out of India. The situation in Af-Pak being used to justify a base in India!! Was that the plan all along and Af-Pak situation is just a ruse?

BTW doesn't the Indian security forces have a better success rate compared to the Americans?

There is no question of permitting the "basing" of any foreign countries "military and/or intelligence operatives in India" to address terrorist threats from wherever they might originate irrespective of context.

Khurshid raises concerns over DK issue with John Kerry

Salman Khurshid raises concerns over Devyani Khobragade issue with John Kerry

New Delhi: Upset over the Devyani Khobragade episode, India today raised with the US its concerns over "trafficking" visas issued to family members of Sangita Richard, the absconding maid of the Indian diplomat whose arrest had triggered a row between the two countries.

The concerns were conveyed by External Affairs Minister Salman Khurshid to his American counterpart John Kerry during nearly a half-an-hour-long meeting on the sidelines of Geneva 2 talks on Syria in the Swiss resort city of Montreux.

Khurshid and Kerry recognised the need to put in place institutional arrangements to look at all outstanding issues relating to the privileges and immunities of diplomats of both countries so that such issues could be resolved in a timely manner, the External Affairs Ministry said in a release after the meeting.

A 1999 batch IFS officer, Khobragade was arrested on December 12 and subsequesntly strip-searched before she was released on a bail of USD 250,000, evoking a sharp reaction by the government here which withdrew extra privileges enjoyed by the US diplomats posted in India.

India was also upset over visas issued by the US Embassy to the three family members - husband and two children of Richard, saying that American diplomatic mission facilitated the illegal immigration of the family to the US.

Richard's family flew to New York on December 10, two days ahead of Khobragade's arrest in New York, on the air tickets provided by the US Embassy's official travel agency.

The release said in view of the recent episode involving Khobragade's arrest, Khurshid "underlined India's concern over trafficking visas issued to Indian nationals by the US Embassy in India."

The two ministers also reviewed recent developments in India-US relations.

Khurshid and Kerry agreed that the bilateral relationship was very important for both countries, the ministry said.

Both sides looked forward to the early realisation of the mutually-agreed calendar of bilateral exchanges, including the visit of US Energy Secretary Moniz for the India-US Energy dialogue and the visit of the Commissioner of the US Food and Drug Administration, Margaret Hamburg, it said.

Mention was also made of ongoing defence cooperation between India and the US.

The two leaders agreed to remain in contact to follow up on the progress on these issues, it said.

Five Resolutions for U.S. South Asia Policy in 2014

U.S. officials can help themselves out by pledging to do several things differently in South Asia this year. Here are five New Year's resolutions that, if upheld, can help inch the region just a bit closer to the stability that's long eluded it.
1. Think more regionally
There's a tendency in Washington to perceive competing regional interests in Afghanistan through the narrow lens of the India-Pakistan rivalry. And indeed, as the international troop presence draws down, these two countries will intensify their competition for influence in Afghanistan -- with troubling ramifications for regional stability. Yet it's also important to recognize Iran's concerns about Afghanistan's Hazara Shias; China's apprehensions about the security of its mineral and other private investments in Afghanistan; Russia's worries about the Afghan drug trade; and the fears of Central Asian states about intensified unrest in Afghan spilling over their borders. To be sure, these broader regional anxieties don't portend conflict. But leaving them to fester could aggravate a set of regional tensions quite separate from those tied to the Durand Line or Line of Control. This year, Washington should host a conference exclusively for Afghanistan's neighbors. It could highlight regional perspectives, interests, and concerns -- and equip U.S. officials with useful policy inputs.
2. Pursue economic integration more robustly
The Obama administration has often spoken of establishing a "new silk road" that reconstitutes old trade links between South and Central Asia. It's a good yet vague idea, though little of substance has been done to pursue it. This year, the United States should focus on more targeted pro-integration efforts -- such as taking better advantage of its observer status in the South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation (SAARC), The United States should also reconsider its opposition to the Iran-Pakistan pipeline. If ever consummated, this project would not only contribute to regional integration, but also ease Pakistan's destabilizing energy crisis (the pipeline would provide more than an estimated quarter of Pakistan's daily electricity demand). Thanks to last year's Geneva agreement, the United States has pledged to suspend sanctions on Iran's petrochemical exports if Tehran freezes some of its nuclear weapons program. If this happens, Washington's continued opposition to the pipeline will start looking silly.
3. Pay more attention to Bangladesh
In recent years, Washington's South Asia policy has centered around Afghanistan and Pakistan, with India also in the mix. Bangladesh has largely been ignored -- a troubling omission. Bangladesh is a moderate Muslim-majority nation that sits astride the Indian Ocean region -- an area that influential foreign affairs commentator Robert Kaplan says "may comprise a map as iconic to the new century as Europe was to the last one."More to the point, Bangladesh is one of the biggest powder kegs in South Asia. In recent months, the nation has been convulsed by "unprecedented" pre-election violence, and the political opposition decided to boycott the Jan. 5 poll. Public unrest, already inflamed by ongoing and polarizing government-led trials for war crimes committed during Bangladesh's war for independence, could well explode in the aftermath of a flawed election. And one can never rule out intervention by Bangladesh's military. It's attempted a whopping 30 coups (most recently in 2012) over the country's nearly 43-year existence. Given its geopolitical significance and volatile neighborhood, Washington needs to keep a close eye on Bangladesh this year (a Congressional hearing and several government-sponsored private roundtables last year represent a good start). The White House needs to be up to speed so that it's not caught off-guard if a worst-case scenario -- from a ruling party effort to establish a one-party state to a military takeover -- should ever come to pass.
4. Make a new push for India-Pakistan reconciliation
Most observers agree that peace between these nuclear rivals would be a boon for regional stability.Washington should quietly use its good offices to help finalize this trade Given the turbulent nature of its ties with Islamabad and, more recently, its worsening relations with New Delhi, mediating a behind-the-scenes resolution to the intractable Kashmir conflict simply isn't realistic
5. Be more humble about expectations and objectives
Washington must acknowledge the limits of its leverage in South Asia. Ousting the Taliban from power in Afghanistan and plying
the country with aid hasn't prevented President Hamid Karzai from refusing, so far, to sign a bilateral security agreement that permits a post-2014 American military presence. Similarly, pouring billions of dollars in security assistance into Pakistan hasn't prompted that nation's military to unequivocally sever ties with militants that attack U.S. forces i
