    I love how US Foreign policy under the Bush administration has always been about hindsight, and hardly ever about foresight. In the late 1990s US was all over India regarding not signing the NPT, conducting underground tests, etc...labeling the country as a "rogue" nation. Seriously, India was your concern? Shouldn't the Bush administration have re-evaluated its foreign policy with Pakistan, post 9/11 and the war on terror? what good will it do to worry now, when over half the country is filled with terrorist factions? i recently had a chance to speak with Ed Meese, and i asked him what he thought about the Bush administration's relationship with Pakistan and what his predictions were...let's just say, the answer was most unsatisfactory.

    Quoted: Pakistan says the technology is under control. But Washington wonders.

    unfortunately, I feel like this is a real concern. India's always had problems with terrorism, but aligning itself with US in terms of nuclear means and supporting Musharraf, might make the threat more challenging and imminent. How ironic when India and Pakistan are actually on the same side for a change...

    Quoted: Terrorism analysts universally agree that India's growing closeness to the US may have put it in the crosshairs of the international terror group. The recent announcement of the nuclear deal would have sharpened the focus. Strangely enough, India's open endorsement of Pakistan President Pervez Musharraf is possibly the second reason for incurring the ire of the terror outfit.
