India’s government – incensed over the arrest of a female diplomat in Manhattan last week – has retaliated by removing the security barriers in front of the US embassy in New Delhi, the country’s main news agency reported...

OK, if it was more than that, they should explain it, not just cavity search on a visa problem. Doesn’t add up...

Start ticketing Indian delegation vehicles on the streets of NYC.

i wouldn’t be surprised if irt doesn’t have something to do with the Indian Supreme Court’s decision last week making homsexual sex a crime.

What was she arrested for?

[Army Air Corps]

If had just claimed to be an illegal immigrant from Mexico, then the NYC cops would probably let her go and she could get a ton of freebies!

“The cavity searches were just for fun...”

Very lovely woman too.

If Khobragade has/had a diplomatic passport, the world will not look kindly on us.

Wars have started over lesser offenses...

Under the Obama Empire, the US is arbitrarily seizing foreigners and subjecting them to US "law" out of jurisdiction.

This will come to light quickest with diplomatic foreigners, but it is simply hostage taking and extortion, ...piracy.

The future holds retaliation for US citizens.

Agreed, our side seems to be tight lipped about it which means either they screwed up BIG time and are doing the old CYA thing, or they caught her doing something very bad and she is screaming for pity.

Perhaps we haven’t heard our side of the story yet because it is “sensitive” in nature as well.

And that would make it OK to arrest her and perform cavity searches? Strange!

[Eric in the Ozarks]

It's beyond strange.

The Mongols sacked Baghdad and brought down the ‘Golden Age of Islam’ to dust and rubble, when the Muslim ruler there assaulted and executed a Mongol messenger.

The sultan was trampled to death under carpets in his palace by Mongol horsemen.

welcome to Obama’s liberal land of the free and home of the brave, baby. How’s it feel to be treated like a citizen?

on the other hand, does exposing our embassy to terrorist attack make India feel vindicated?

[Dr. Bogus Pachysandra]

Visa problem with her domestic.

[Irenic]

Cavity searches seem to be all the rage in this country nowadays. Even right on the side of the road. It’s outrageous.

[Carriage Hill]

“...security barricades outside the US Embassy in Delhi removed...”

This isn’t going to end well for that Embassy.

[M Kehoe]

Heck, all we did was stop selling the Japanese petrol, and they attacked us at Pearl Harbor, and elsewhere.

What's India's position on rape?
