Tail Wagging the Dog
I will admit that I am not a competent person to comment to the Indo-US nuclear deal. But from reading the newspapers, it seems that the experts/commentators in the field are generally ok with the deal. Even the scientists who complained earlier are not saying anything against the deal. So it looks like a win-win situation. Also I would say the US or for that matter, no country would do a deal for charity. There has to be something in it for both parties. Mainly the BJP & Communists seemed to opposed to it. BJP is pathetic. After they lost power, they have been behaving like a child who's toys have been taken away from them. They initiated this process and now they are crying foul. So much for national interest. The communists opposition is expected. They blindly oppose anything related to US. Communists worldwide have changed except for India communists, who are stuck in the past. I used to wonder many times, if some these communist leaders who regularly appear in the media, have at any point of time in their lives have done any constructive work!! They have made a mess out of West Bengal & Kerala. Bengal was one of the most industrialized state at the time of independence and now everybody knows the story. It seems that they will never let India progress. Actually in the last 2-3 days, I have read quite a few newspaper columns questioning the Communist's motivation for opposing the deal. The congress is again pathetic. They have let the communists dictate terms and have a veto power. They should have called the communist's bluff long back. With 10% or so MP's communists are trying to rule the country by proxy. Its ridiculous. The tail is wagging the Dog.
