^jvelarde Developed countries in the west don't help developing countries my providing them excess to technology but the want to provide AID to make them to toe in line. Do u know what was the first thing that came in UK media when India rejected Typhoon??? IT WAS WE PROVIDE INDIA MILLIONS OF DOLLARS IN AID N THEY REJECTED OUR PLANE. We r not anybodys slave nor we want their AID we want equal footing for trade n there so called AID is spent on NGOs promoting Christianity for money in India(i m not making up stories here there r org running in India which will provide u money to change ur faith) n running campaigns to create more problems then any good. Try asking a Pakistani what he feels about US AID given to its people n what its has helped them to achieve, he'll tell ur the otherside of the story. Period. PS - i got nothing against Christianity i just don't like this money thing in religion. Edited by Yogi, Apr 1 2013, 10:15 AM.

No, Yogi, you are too anti-American to accept any criticism. I point out the inherent contradictions in your statements with facts.
Well, I never said that the US entered WWII to save humanity either. I just mentioned the US involvement in WWII in response to your statement about the US "just screwing around the world".
It is so easy for you (and so many anti-US peaceniks) to say the US did not have to drop those nuclear bombs in Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945. Both you and I were born long after the end of that terrible war so it is so easy in hindsight to say this or that. The Japanese of WWII both civilian and soldiers were a fanatical people. They had to stopped or they could have produced a nuclear weapon in a few years. Nothing short of an invasion and occupation of their homeland would have convinced the Japanese to stop the war. Invading Japan would have costs millions of lives on both sides. The Allies alone would have lost hundreds of thousands of men and women maybe up to a million if we have to gauge how bloody the battles in Iwo Jima and Okinawa turned out. The bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, while tragic, saved millions of lives since even the Japanese Emperor Hirohito was convinced that they had lost. We had our fair share of Invaders for about a 1000 years. N in last 200 years of colonial British rule we were also not living in some luxurious life. So, IMO no point debating here. I repeat, the Japanese were a brutal race. They murdered so many Filipino civilians on a whim. One of their favorite techniques was to toss a baby into the air and catch it with their bayonets. The British were pussycats next to the sadistic Japanese.
No you don't based on your next statements.
The Soviets had to be defeated. The Evil Empire had to bleed in Afghanistan for their brutal occupation of Afghanistan. If the US settled a score with the Soviets over the latter's involvement in the Korean war and the Vietnam war, so what! BTW, are you happy that there is no more USSR or not?
After the Soviets went home with their tails behind their legs, the US was ready to provide billions in aid to help rebuilt Afghanistan. However, the various Afghani factions decided to battle each other. There was nothing the US could have done short of an invasion of Afghanistan. The Taliban did not even come into being until 1996, well after the Soviets had left in defeat. 9/11 was a decision by OBL because he was furious that infidel (Western) troops were in the holy soil of Saudi Arabia during the first Gulf War when Saddam Hussein invaded Kuwait. The UN troops were there in the invitation of the Saudi government. BTW, none of the terrorists of 9/11 were Afghan.
How come you have not blamed your Russian friends for invading Afghanistan in the first place and turning that country into a hellhole? How come India turned a blind eye to the Soviet atrocities that was going on inside Afghanistan, a country that is roughly just 200 kilometers from you.
Well, you can't blame the US for helping the enemy of their enemy. The US had no choice but to help the Afghan mujahideens to help defeat the Soviets.
Then ask the Russians WTF they invaded Afghanistan in the first place! Let me repeat, it was the fault of the Russians for the sad state of Afghanistan today.
Just how does the US support these Arab monarchies? Buy buying their oil? Having diplomatic relations with them? If these are your criteria for "support", then most countries in the world (including India) are supporting these monarchies too! BTW, do you want the House of Saud to collapse? Do you want the Emir of Kuwait to be deposed? And who do you propose to replace these monarchs? There is no Mahatma Gandhi or George Washington that will replace these men if their monarchies collapse.
You do have a point here, I agree. But for you to condemn the US for deposing an Arab despot (Saddam Hussein) while criticizing that the US supports the other Arab monarchs is laughable if it weren't so hypocritical. Let me ask you a question. Would you have been happy if the US had invaded, say, Oman and left Saddam Hussein alone?
India became self-sufficient in wheat when you imported some wheat varieties from Mexico which doubled your harvest yields. And this under a program financed either by the US or Europe.
Aside from weapons & space, what industries were the Soviets good at? If the Soviets really help you stand on your own feet, then how come India opened up to the West (including the imperialist US) starting in the 1990's? How come you invited American companies to open up offices there especially in the IT and computer industries? How come you welcomed back Coke and Pepsi with open arms? How come you invited Japanese and other foreign car companies into putting up factories there if the Soviets helped you become independent? |

@jvelarde I told u i too can go head on debating on this topic but i don't wanna ruin this thread in a personal debate. Ur free to belief what u wanna belief n i m not interested in carrying out this argument with u as this is not for what i came to this forum. If u got any constructive questions in respect to India u may ask me but i m really not in a mood to carry on these senseless debates. Period. |
