I think, Bush need not walk out directly out of the NSG, but he can announce, a formation of a parallel
NSG-10 composed of G-8 Countries and Nuclear Outreach countries like Australia and India for the time being, as a forum to discuss Nuclear Trade and Nuclear Non-Proliferation.
USA, UK, France, Germany, Italy, Canada, Japan, Russia, Australia and India .
This Grouping would work '
closely'
with NSG and GNEP. Of course, one cannot hinder, that there may be some overlapping work with the other groups.
McCain would like this and even give his formal blessing to the Idea, on the basis that Republicans hate BIG GOVERNMENT and the Neo-Conservatives hate UN. This would also appeal to his notion of Democracies.... Of course, he may not like Russian participation, but then a country's name can go under is such a long list...
The Pipsqueak will cry FOUL, and the more
takes place by these Govts and NPAs, the more their domestic constituencies, the gallery to which they were playing, will understand that their representatives have just pushed their countries over the cliff and they are going to lose their voice in matters of Non-Proliferation.
With time, the Group can require that any country wishing to do business with them, would, beside NSG, also need to sign a protocol with this group. At the second stage the
beside NSG phrase can be thrown out.
India's (specially mine
) vengeance would be sweet, when the likes of
- Ulrike Lunacek (Austrian Green, who is the cornerstone of everything India is having to endure. Yours truly was the one, who first pointed out, that this woman is dangerous)
- Ursulla Plassnik (Austria FM, beholden to the above)
- Helen Clark (Who will become the biggest Hate Figure in NZ for Kiwi Indians)
- Phil Goff (NZ Minister for Disarmament)
are thrown out by their own constituencies for destroying NSG with their un-constructive attitude or putting more pressure on NSG, than it could take. That is why, I am in favor of taking a vote from all NSG members, so that these countries know, that they were in the minority. (42-3)
The Lizard would pee in its pants, that it is being kept outside the Group, and just like India cannot hope to get into NPT, China would know that a framework is coming up, where it is also excluded.
So I would plea for the formation of a consultative group NSG-10, with the mission to only consult.
