{“I'm pretty sure the Indian lobby has a hand in this story leaking out...The Indian American lobby is getting stronger & increasingly emulating the Israeli lobby... It helps when American Jews & Indians see eye to eye & can join forces; & its happening increasingly....Americans of Indian origin are increasingly becoming a big voice in American intelligentsia. ..Wake up, world wide alumni...wasting your efforts riling a bunch of armchair laymen on Chowk, while your Indian counterparts are working the hallways of the White House & Capitol Hill."}

Shankar Sahib,

Excellent points regarding the increasing influence of Indian Americans. May I remind you that at one time American Indians had far greater influence on the American landscape than their newly-arrived namesakes?

While gaining influence in the White House and Capitol may be advantageous, something tells me that, the way things look for the future, it's about as significant as having the honor of playing with the orchestra on the Titanic.

Americans are tired of the war in Afghanistan, the economy is still recovering from Bush's misadventures, China is flexing its muscles, and your Israeli allies will dump you like a saloon girl once they reach a peace accord with the Arabs and Muslims.

So, rely on your own merits instead of trying to influence others to do your dirty work for you. Peace.

Americans are very smart people. They will make you hold the little finger of their left hand and they will hold your whole right hand.

IMHO, the increasing influence of Indians in america may be a cause of celebration but increasing influence of americans in India is worrisome.

mule...

So many ifs and buts...let us dwell in the reality and present....

1. Is it possible for muslas, ignoring Ko-Run, to live peacefully with jews (or any other civilised human group)?

Ans: No. Then muslas have to turn into civilised people...That is not looking to be in near future...So, Israel dumping India is not going to be a reality. Furthermore, India Israel relationship is not something dependent on arab equation. More from economic compulsion and mutual trust...India is big technology market for them. India is nice trading partner for them. With history showing wrong treatement of jews in both middle east and europe and India having good track record to shield and shelter the distressed, it will be moronic for them to keep all the eggs in US basket, moving away from India...Trusting arabs/muslas does not arise at all....

2. China is flexing it's muscle...
Much of chinese economy depends upon export to USA and EU. USA and EU can live without China, but China can not...

3. USA is very new country lacking experince. US supported musla nuicense, specificaly Pakistan, to extend it's strategic depth in Asia...It has backfired again and again. USA never experienced islamic barbarism. USA had very limited knowledge about islam. Now they have started experiencing islam. It is the duty of 3000 year old civilization (India) to guide USA and show right path.


Now ask arabic moon god to send another messenger and reveal Ko-Run II, such that muslas can turn into civlised people and live amicably with others accross the globe...
As a civilised human being, there is no fun in playing the role of terrorist and nuicense maker accrross the globe, be it in Thailand, Philipines, India, Mynmar, Java, Australia, Spain, UK, USA, Nigeria, France, Russia, Serbia....
