The Reality Of India-US Nuclear Deal
By Binu Mathew

The nuclear deal with India is not a benevolent gift from the emperor to a
client state. It was a clever move to put India out of the competition for
fossil fuels

U S DEPARTMENT OF STATE

Remarks by President Bush After Meeting With Religious Leaders

President George W. Bush
Maurya Sheraton and Towers
New Delhi, India
March 2, 2006

Released by the White House Office of the Press Secretary

4:23 P.M. Local

THE PRESIDENT: We have just had a -- a very important discussion about the role
of religion, not only in India, but the role that religion can play in helping
the world become a more peaceful place. I want to thank the leaders here around
the table. Leaders from different faiths have joined us to share with -- their
thoughts with me.

You know, one of the things that struck me during the conversation is, in India,
is -- it's a country that recognizes the importance of religion and welcomes
interfaith dialogue; understands the importance of faith, and understands the
importance of people of faith, discussing thoughts and views that are -- that
are deep in their hearts.

And we've had a -- just a -- you know, India is an amazing country. Just look
around the table and you'll see different religions represented. But everybody
around the table also was so proud to be in India. In other words, their
nationalism was equally important then, as their religion.

We thank the --

MR. GOSWAMI: -- here to the world.

THE PRESIDENT: Well, that's right. That's right. Thank you. Anyway, I just
appreciate you all coming. Thank you for your kind words, and like you, I hope
for peace, and like you, I'm proud to be here in India. It's a fantastic
country.

Thank you.

Subject: Indo-US Nuke Deal: Two Views  

[The following comments, particularly the  one immediately following, go
to show that there remains still a considerable  gap between the cup and
the lip.   And that's precisely the remaining ray of hope.
     
  The Indian, sub-continental and global peace movements must engage
with all the  strength at their command to scuttle closing of this gap.

  The, yet to be clinched, ???deal??™ is just not yet another instance of gross  
and brazen unilateralism on the part of the neo-con rulers of the US, it's
also  a grave assault on the NPT, the lynchpin of the current non-proliferation
order  and the only international commitment to global nuclear
disarmament.
