Well, at the very least he’s a Muslim sympathizer. If you look at this in that context then it sorta makes sense. The allies of traditional US of A are not Obama’s allies and he intends to “fundamentally change” that.

Question for anyone who might know - on reading the whole article, it seems to be implying that India is against Obama supposedly cracking down on Iran’s nukes. They refer to a “stable” Iran. Am I just misunderstanding that part?

This is the part I am referring to:

“This formidable combination of wealth, geography, religious appeal, unending foot-soldiers and nuclear weapons would create a monster power straddling south and west Asia. To some degree, it could be offset by a strong India and a stable Iran, which would flank AfPak. However, Mr Obama is determined that Teheran must not pursue its Bomb and India should be pressured to sign the NPT.”

most Indian businessmen I know are actually very pro-Democrat and had bought into Bush Derangement Syndrome before the election. Guess the joke is on them.

I think Obama has lost a lot of independents, and that’s telling. I’ve seen 2 “Sorry I voted for Obama” stickers on cars around here.

“Nice to see that the paper Kipling wrote for back in the 1880s is still alive and kicking.

It was known as a conservative paper then and apparently still is.”

Fascinating. I didn’t know this. I will check The Pioneer regularly. Good to know there are conservatives in India.

"There has been a remarkable absence of clarity on Mr Obama’s strategic goals. In the early months, it was easy to pretend he was making up his mind. Now, it would seem he has no mind."

You are going to start seeing a lot more of this from Central and Southeast Asia.

One of the commenters summed up what is perhaps the general concensus of many here in Southeast Asia.

and that is...

"Who will respect a nation that has no respect for itself?"

It is as if the country could care less about any real foreign or domestic issues - the only issue that matters for America is race - and to prove that they are not racist, they elect a black man.

No, Kipling's dead.

But he died in 1936, which isn't all that long ago.

ANOTHER article from the same paper --

Demagoguery at its best

Yeah, I guess it's fair to say that they're not very happy with The One over there in New Delhi . . . .

Most Americans of Indian origin went for this bozo big time.

Now they can savor the anger of Indians when they go back to visit, LOL!

Nope, India is saying “I don’t know why you would elect such a bimbo. He wants to help the communists and the islamists, not America.” India would be happy if O left India AND it’s enemies alone, but if Oh bummer keeps supporting China and Pakistan, all the effort that George Bush put into the warming of US-India relations will be wasted.

It is a mistake to believe obama is making “mistakes” rather than doing what he is doing on purpose with deliberate intent, just like it is a mistake to believe obama’s motivations and goals are the same as other Americans’ or even those of past Presidents other than Carter.

Very succinct and pithy and accurate.

The people who perceive his performance as mistake-prone are naive.

Meant to add — Calculated destruction is more like it.
