I know what you mean. Still I think this is a good thing for both countries. THe USA need to form a good strategic relationship with India. I do not see this as a threat at all to the USA if we can form a good alliance with them. It is one more hedge against China in that region.

As a former citizen of India, I am amused how so many former citizens of India manage to find a way to look down on their former homeland by concentrating on the negatives instead of the positives.

Nope.

Tell your idiot grandfather to get out of the village. He sounds like he suffers from the same diesease as the ethopians and sudanese who keep hoping their barren land will become lush and green...

So why dont you something for your village to help out your grandpa instead of criticising India. At least that way you can make yourself useful than what you are and also repay some debts you owe to your former motherland. It too easy to pass sermons to your former countrymen on what they should or shouldnt do sitting half the world away with all the personal comforts and luxury.

And if you cant do anything at least tell your grandpa to get the hell outta that village and go to some place that has running water. There are plenty of places in India that has running water. And if you cant do that either then just shut the hell up!

Maybe, maybe not. What's that got to do with the defense of a country that's facing attacks from islamofascists and chicoms. Sure, it'd be utopia if we could all not spend money on guns and spend it on helping the poor more, but ground realities are ground realities.
