Noorani, The Frontline and Kashmir The acceptance of Musharafs proposal would imply fragmentation of India in future and open war between Muslim and non-Muslim communities as we have seen in the former Yugoslavia recently. Unfortunately, Indias English language media is preparing a case for the same kind of proposal of autonomy for Kashmir as suggested by General Musharaf before. The recent demands by both Farouk Abdullah and Omar Abdullah for autonomy and the open border should be the revelation for all who does not want India t...	D Basu	A.Moron: No country anywhere in the World would allow the pro-Pakistani and Pro-Chinese propaganda of The Hindu and The Frontline, but India does. [21 comments]
Kyoto Treaty and Environtal Game Not much time is left before a climatic catastrophie will occur to the entire world , if the predictions of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change ( UNFCCC) are correct correct. However, both India and China have joined USA to undermine the Kyoto Treaty of 1997 to arrest further damages to the worlds climate by controlling human activities that may have caused the crisis.The main culprit according to UNFCCC is the emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2) by the industry and the trans...	D Basu	Suresh Babu: The Environmental body of the UN is just as useless as the World Trade Organization. USA, and Europe will not obey any international treaty but they are trying to get around their obligations. It is pointless for India to participate and spend vast .... [6 comments]
Another Round of DOHA Negotiations We all thought the World Trade Organization ( W.T.O) is dead when the financial crisis of the world economy has demolished the myth of benefits of free trade regimes and the poor of the world can rejoice. However, suddenly by some Voodu tricks it came back alive. Going by proposal of the World Trade Organizations Doha Round of Negotiations, developing countries would have to cut their agriculture tariff by 36 per cent and even the most important products for poor farmers would face around 19 per...	D Basu	A.Moron: For some reason current government shifted Nath from the commerce ministry and put a docile Sharma in charge. [1 comments]
New Government in Japan and India Voters in Japan have given Hatoyama, the leader of the Democratic Party a rare opportunity to break with the tradition to follow the Liberal Democratic Party that has ruled Japan for the last 54 years. What does it mean for Japan and the rest of the world depends on the implications of major policy changes from the new government. However, the question is, does the new government have any new policy at all.The economy of Japan is in dire state with the jobless rate rose to a record 5.7 percent i...	D Basu	S.Ghosh: China always wins. It follows what is good for it, and force others to accept it. India does what others ask it to do and always get defeated. [2 comments]
Crime of Jinnah In India, we tend to forget the crimes committed against humanity by either the British or the Muslim rulers before them or the Muslim League and its child Pakistan. History books of India hardly mention that in 1943 at least 5 million people in Bengal were forced to starve to death by the British. There are no accounts of how many millions were slaughtered by the Muslim League guided by Jinnah during 1946 to 1948 and subsequently in Pakistan. India has pressed no charges against Yhahiya Khan an...	D Basu	S.Ghosh: 1) Gandhi-Nehru-Patel were involved in the decision to accept the British proposal to partition India. Also involved Pant, Kripalani. They have not considered even the Congress Party or the Working Committee ( have they?) They were weak leaders, and.... [26 comments]
India"s New Nuclear Drama The recent drama in the G-8 declaration that, unless India signs the NPT( Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty) it will not get any nuclear enrichment and reprocessing plants meeting regarding the Indo-US nuclear treaty, has demonstrated the unrealistic approach adopted by India. The unrealistic expectation of India was that by signing the treaty India can somehow avoid the restriction imposed by the IAEA and NSG against proliferations of nuclear weapons. However, both IAEA( International Atomic Ene...	D Basu	R.Sharma: Given the surrender of MM Singh to Pakistan, it is no surprise what went on between him and George Bush, Hillary Clinton and so on.

Iran, India and the US Dollar This is not the first time that USA has sympathy for one side of the Islamic regime which is determined to destroy the Western and Eastern civilizations. During the days of President Reagan, Iran has financed the terrorists to destroy the socialists in Afghanistan, Nicaragua, El Salvador, Honduras, Mexico and Ethiopia and in return USA has supplied weapons to Iran directly or indirectly through Israel, Pakistan and Turkey. USA is expecting that a new regime will be more accommodating particularl...	D Basu	Gupta: Murugan, my Tamil friends tell me that LTTE got opportunity to get a best deal under Ranil W but LTTE walked out of all those meetings and opted for war. They started Eelam IV war by destroying water supply for a village and then the Sri Lankan Pr.... [85 comments]
Infeasibility of the G-20 Stimulus Plan Tasks in front of the G-20 leaders were to produce a framework to solve the world economic crisis by thinking out of box. Instead they want another round of stimulus without learning any lesson from George Bush and Gordon Brown of UK, who just gave away more than $900 Billion to the Anglo-American banks and financial institutions without restructuring them and as a result money just disappeared in a black hole without creating any solution yet. Much of these stimulus plans are empty promises or ...	D Basu	S.Ghosh: Greed has made America great, but the greed of the Indian politicians made India stink. [9 comments]
USSR"s Recognition of Azad Hind Govt For the people brainwashed by false propaganda, it is difficult to recognize the truth. That is particularly true about the Indian population fed with gigantic propaganda unleashed by the Government of India and the historians attached to the government since 1947 against the memory of both Subhas Chandra Bose and his Free India Government in exile. Although it is a fact that along with Germany, Italy, Japan, the Soviet Union also has recognized the Free India Government established in 1943 in S...	D Basu	Rajesh: Yes Russia did recognize Azad Hind Government and that is a Historical Fact. India was unfortunate to have some one like Nehru as the Ist PM, Mr. DAS SAMIRBARAN must be crazy to even mention that netaji was killed by the japanese. Japanese solders d.... [54 comments]
Pakistani Terrorism: its aim & how to re.. The terrorist attack on Mumbai is already a few days old. Thus, the journalistic emotions have died down and now this is the time to think hard about the Pakistani terrorism and its aim before we can think about how to respond. The journalists in the British media are making the mistake of trying to link the issue of Kashmir to this terrorism, while most of these Western journalists, including the English woman born in India Arundhuti Roy, have no idea about long history of Islam and the history...	D Basu	S.Ghosh: India was partitioned because of the Muslims, who have supported Jinnah"s idea of Two Nation Theory, tat Hindus and Muslims are two seperate nations and they cannot live together. When Pakistan was already created, what is the justification for the .... [7 comments]
Global Financial Crisis and its Solution The IMFs chief economist Olivier Blanchard has warned that the global financial crisis is set to worsen and that the situation will not improve until 2010; he also has said that the IMF did not have the funds to solve every economic problem. Massive withdrawals of investments from emerging countries could represent hundreds of billions of dollars, which is so significant that the IMF alone cannot counter them. The IMF had spent a fifth of its $250 billion fund in the first two weeks of November ...

USA Fin Crisis and Lesson for India An open, competitive and liberalized financial market can effectively allocate scarcer resources in a manner that promotes stability and prosperity far better than government intervention, Henry Paulson, the U.S Treasury secretary said in Shanghai in March 2007. This year it sounds like a big joke given the fact that both the United States and UK government s are nationalizing banks and financial institutions in order to avoid a complete meltdown of their financial system. On 7th September, 2008...	D Basu	Add Comment
India"s Wrong Monetary Policy With the uncontrolled inflation, the diagnosis of the prime minister is that it is imported and so we can do little, but to control the money supply within India by increasing interest rate and making it more difficult for the banks to lend out by increasing the reserve ratios of the commercial banks. The medicine is not new but it is the classic remedy coming from the International Monetary Fund to reduce money supply in an economy facing inflation, irrespective of the nature of the disease.Wha...

N-Deal is Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty Although the Indian media and the government wants to promote the Vienna Treaty with the Nuclear Suppliers Group (NSG) and the Indo-US 123 deal in terms of power generation, the deal has very little to do with power generation. After signing these treaties India will not be able to import technology or materials for the military part of the nuclear sector from any of the countries of the NSG, including Russia. Thus, Indias nuclear weapons programme will disappear. This is the real aim of the Vie...	D Basu	Add Comment
New Cold War and Implications for India A new cold-war has already emerged between USA and Russia, which may have significant implications for India in near future and can alter all strategic plans of India regarding its positions in the world and its economic policy. Russia, in response to Georgias attempt to invade South Ossetia, where the population of 70,000 have Russian citizenship, has declared both South Ossetia and Abkhazia, both parts of Georgia, as independent nations and sends its army to protect them. Russia also controls ...
