This writer needs to drink some cool aid! He has gone over the top in this article without presenting a shred of evidence. The basis for his doomsday predictions have been simply "it has been said" and "it has been told". Can he present the sources by which he is so confidently asserting that India will lose all its sovereignty? Creating a massive fuss about anything linked with the US is a inborn trait of a card carrying commie like Mitra. Just as we ignore the rantings of the extreme right -like Bajrang Dal and Shiv Sena and Osama, the readers should similarly be wary of taking such fringe leftist elements like Mitra too seriously. He would have us beleive that all our diplomats, ministers, officials, aides and agencies are fools and will roll and play dead as soon as US wants them too. It just serves his leftist purpose to create a hysteria among the public about US intentions. If inspite of PAK being the fountainhead of terrorism,and a frontline US ally,US still has to consider PAK sensitivites before taking action there, does anyone seriously think India, a much more free and upright nation, will allow US a free hand in India? You must be simple in your mind to believe that.
