PR effort??If that's the case,please direct me to the specific government dept or company handling it,as I am yet to get my cheque.
PVN reoriented India's ties with the US drastically,though Clinton did make life very hard for him.His pragmatism was evident when he suspended preparations for 2 nuclear tests in 1995 after US pressure.If Indo-US ties are stable today,PVN does deserve a proverbial pat on the back.
OK then, why are you posting so many articles about India then? If you're not a PR agent, I apologize. I have run into a few already.
Because Im an Indian who happens to post articles on India (& China,Israel & south-east Asia) whenever I see it as relevant to world politics & relations with the US.
Did I miss out to say 'Because I Can'?
Something wrong with an Indian site for those discussions?
There he goes again. We will have to complain to the management about the harassment. Some people have never been outside little towns in Texas, it appears. These are perfectly newsworthy articles. International news does seem to appeal to those with greater intellects.
Actually India started to adjust itself to new global realities by the 1980s when Rajiv Gandhi saw that the USSR was becoming fragile.He hit up great chemistry with Ronald Reagan despite their considerable age difference.India & the US signed armsdeals & extended scientific cooperation.Then relations went into a flux,till PVN came along.
PS-India was infact strongly allied to the US after it's 1962 war(& defeat) with China.The 1st US-India airforce exercises were held in 1964(the next in 2004) & heavy intelligence cooperation was started against China.This continued till Johnson & later Nixon saw Pakistan as a better bet.Indira Gandhi's attitude wasn't too cozy either.
Listen,buddy what exactly is your bloody problem??AS far as I know it ,the Web & Freerepublic are free places,where you can do anything as long as you stay within the boundaries.
Don't take my remarks on the Comrades as support for them.Most of them are pretty detestable,but they are also increasingly realistic.While India's communists have always been the loudest to support the Pallis,it was surprisingly,a government with active communist participation that signed the 1st public arms deals with Israel in 1996!!The present chief minister of West Bengal infact has started to implement policies which makes strikes in & against IT companies illegal-so now, many IT majors are crowding to Kolkata.
Are you against the promotion of Israel of England? Do you have something against Indians or learning about foreign affairs? Were you downsized out of a call center job?
Oh Im so scared!!
of = or
I'll be more forgiving if you post some Bollywood babes.
Ouch! hehehe
Some like me, even the U.S.A. and conservatism! (although also with a strong interest in international affairs).
Sorry,but I hate Hindi movies due to the absolute lack of any storyline or script & my being from South India(non Hindispeaking) may also have to do with it!!!
