INDIA THE WORLD'S MOST FREE COUNTRY

Incredible India. The government of India's ingenious advertisement campaign to promote tourism to India. Some of us agree with that description. Some of us don't. Why is India incredible? Well we have the world's biggest population, we have the largest number of graduates and scientists, we have one of the fastest growing economies, we are the world's biggest democracy, we are a huge beautiful country that is the home of the Taj Mahal and the Ajanta caves and Sarnat and Konark. At least that is what most people think..

India indeed is incredible. India is the greatest country that ever existed on the face of this earth. And that greatness comes not from the Taj Mahal, not from Harappa and the Indus valley, our true greatness comes from something that no one is paying any attention to. India is the world's most Free country. The average Indian enjoys more rights in India than the proudest richest most powerful American in America. In India we have rights that most people can't even dream of in so called 'free' countries like America.

COMPARING INDIA AND AMERICA

Today we see a lot of leaders in India who have a one-way love affair with America. The following paragraphs are for them to read.

Why all this talk about Freedom in India? Because, we have something precious here in India. We have real freedom, real rights here unlike the pathetic symbolic rights that Americans enjoy. We celebrate freedom the way God intended it. And it is our duty to ourselves and to future generations to defend that freedom.

I know this description is confusing to the average person who wants to go to America rather than heaven when he dies. America where there is big clean roads, no corrupt babus, no hartals and where the schools are so brilliant and produce inventors and scientists.

Our media is one of the best in the world. That is something that is very obvious if we compare an Indian newspaper and an American newspaper side by side. But one thing that our media lacks is insight into how well we compare against other countries. The American media on the other hand is constantly pushing America's 'image' abroad, an image which is mostly imagined than real, while our media is so modest about our country.

Let us look at a simple example that illustrates the extent of freedom that we have in India. And I would challenge any American 'freedomer' to prove me wrong. Let us imagine you have a 6 year old child. He goes to school in India. He gets a bit restless in school. He throws his shoe at a school window accidentally and breaks it. The teacher gets her cane, he gets a whack on his palm with it, and his parents get a note from the teacher. The parents give him a good scolding and a whack with a stick. End of the story. The kid grows up, he is happy, healthy of mind and body and soul, he loves his teachers, he loves his parents, he becomes a good useful normal member of society, life goes on. Now let us rewind the tape, and change the story a bit. The kid, unfortunately for him, is born in America. He goes to an American school. One morning, he says he wants to color his hair green. His gung-ho dad says, "why not, son?!" So off he goes to school with green hair. The school objects to a green haired freak running wild on school grounds. His Dad is outraged. "This is a free country", he yells as he slams his fist on the table. "This is America!" He dials his lawyer. Next day it is national news, family sues school because they interfered with child's right to self expression. The school gets sued for 40 million dollars as compensation for mental anguish (ha ha) and pain and suffering and discrimination (ha ha ha). The school is scared out of its wits. They let the kid come to school with green hair and African braids and what not. America savours this sweet example of how much 'freedom' they have. Symbolic freedom , how America loves it! And then…. One day the kid throws a shoe accidentally at a window and breaks it. Hmm. Giving him a whack with a cane is illegal in 'ethical, free, conscientious (who made up such a ******* word?) America. But the school policeman has something legal and ethical to use on him, handcuffs and a stun gun to restrain him . How many people in India know that schools in America have police officers with guns and stun guns? Hmm..more 'ethical' and 'acceptable' and 'conscientious' stuff follows. The school also has a psychiatrist on staff. Unheard of in free countries like India! The psychiatrist comes and looks the kid up and down and shows him some inkblots and asks him about sexual abuse and other all-American topics. Finally the kid is granted two or three different psychiatric diagnoses, and his parents are ordered to administer the psychiatric drugs to 'make him normal'. The parents are outraged. They say 'No way!!'. The American 'doing the right thing' machine now kicks in. Criminal charges are filed against the parent for 'breaking the law of the land' (some laws are intrinsically illegal, such illegal laws would never be followed in Free countries like India). Next thing you know, the kid's parents are officially criminals. The father loses the little job that he had at Walmart, because Walmart being a good corporate employer does not hire criminals and felons and certainly not child-abusing parents who wont give proper medicines to their children (ha ha!) Now the family cannot pay the rent. The landlord does the 'right thing' and what 'Jesus would have done' and kicks them out. Now they are homeless. Now the 'social security' department starts their part of the drama. Hmm homeless parents cannot afford to keep kids. "We want to make sure your kids are ok". The kids are forcibly taken from the parents and sent off to someone else's homes to live there. That family, a family made up of a father, mother and child has been transformed overnight into ashes, that is the magic of 'American Freedom'. And that is what we should know about America to understand how India compares to America. We have the most Free country on God's earth. Even the poorest, most humble Indian has more REAL RIGHTS in India than even an American senator. What Americans have are a lot of high profile symbolic rights such as the right to color their hair green. These are the kind of clownish rights that receive a lot of press, and the world sighs and croons, 'Oh America the Free… home of the brave and free…..'.

India is incredible because we are the most FREE COUNTRY on the face of this earth. That is our claim to greatness, that is what defines our great country. And one day the world will understand that, and even more important, every Indian will understand that, and value what we have here in our great land. Now why am I talking about how precious our land is? Because when we have something so precious as what we have in our Glorious India, we also need to have the means to defend it. I am talking about the nuclear treaty and how it could threaten our freedom and our way of life. Before we get to that, let us talk a little bit of world history.

Most Indian politicians have absolutely no idea as to how the American media represents a totally negative image of India back in their country. This is not by accident. A big part of creating and perpetuating the myth of the 'shining city on the hill' is to create an incredible level of ignorance and indeed misinformation about the outside world. Our newspapers croon "American president declares that America has to follow India's example". Maybe he said that while drinking mango juice at an Indian restarant. Pick up any American newspaper. You will never see any mention of India, not even one line in an entire year, unless of course there is something nasty to say. How many Indian diplomats noticed that while the US media was reporting the Mumbai terror attacks, they carefully avoided showing any shots of the Taj Hotel in its beauty. Instead, the cameras zoomed in on nearby gutters, messy electric poles etc. I call it mosquito journalism- the mosquito, even when it sits on the udder of the cow, does not seek milk, it seeks only blood.

Let me give you another example to illustrate the methodology the American media uses to create a negative image of other countries. Imagine for a second that the 'hotdog' was an Indian product instead of an American product. Here is exactly how an American journalist would have described it: "The natives eat pig-intestines stuffed with crushed pig-meat and covered in a yellow sauce that conjures up images of something you dont want to think of with food, and on top of that they add a blood colored liquid. The meat is still pink in colour. The natives devour this strange thing that they consider delicious."

I have had Americans ask me "Are there cars in India?" "Is there more than one college in India?" And our poor little Indian media mistakenly believes that the American media gives India the kind of glowing coverage that the Indian media gives America.

There is a method to this madness. In the American grand plan, every other country is considered a potential American state. It may take two years or twenty or even two hundred, but in the end, they are determined to own each and every country. Invasions don't happen in one day. There is a preparatory phase which may last for years or even decades. During that preparatory phase the target country is demonized , an image is created of unsavoury hostile savage natives with primitive religious customs, internal oppression, dire poverty and partial insanity, waiting to be delivered and saved. Indeed, the average American believes that India is a muslim country. I have had Americans ask me "Which part of Iran is India located in?" Surprised ? You better believe it! Welcome of the land where the vice-president candidate believes that Africa is a country! I am not saying that ignorance is a crime. But when that ignorance comes from a country that has 5000 nuclear warheads, you understand the gravity of the situation, and the danger it poses.

What is really surprising is how the Indian foreign service has failed to notice these facts that are so simple yet as fundamental as the concept of gravity (remember, Newton did not discover gravity, he just noticed something obvious that nobody had noticed for thousands of years) . One solution would be to start a new Indian consulate, this time in the American heartland, like Tennessee or Nebraska instead of in New York City. New York is predominantly foreign in its ethnic makeup and you will not get a taste of the real America.

Need to hear more wonderful examples of the 'unknown America' ? Tonight walk into any electronics store in Kanpur and ask for a radio. Get the cheapest one, something that is less than Rs 100. Now check the dials. You will see that it has SW, or shortwave, something that enables you to listen to foreign broadcasts. Now have your brother-in-law in Umrika go pick up a radio from the local Walmart. I guarantee, it will not have shortwave. These are just one of the many little mechanisms in place in the 'open, free country' to keep out any information from the outside world. But unlike the dramatics of the Berlin wall, the glass wall around America is invisible, and it is unbreakable.

So throw away your pathetic T-shirt with the American flag on it, it does not stand for what you thought it stands for. And try to understand the greatness of our India. 'Saare Jahaan Se Acha' are not merely the words of a song, they are the word of God himself. There is no country on earth like our Hindustan. We are the best of the best.

THE LESSONS OF HISTORY, ONCE FORGOTTEN WILL HAPPEN AGAIN

Long long ago, there was a civilization that existed in the plains of Europe. These people used stone weapons. They were prosperous, they enjoyed life. They had their families, their children ,their humble but happy homes. Then something else happened. Another civilization appeared that had bronze weapons. The stone weapons were no match for bronze weapons. The societies that relied on stone weapons disappeared gradually as warriors wielding bronze weapons took their women, their homes and their children. The cycle of time continued. Another civilization emerged, they discovered iron weapons. The bronze swords crumbled when faced with iron axes and spears. Entire societies and towns passed into the mists of time as conquerors came marauding. The people armed with bronze weapons looked on helplessly as the conquerors took everything. Thousands were slaughtered, the rest castrated and enslaved while their families were sold into slavery. No one helped them. Not even God. God helps who ever has the most modern weapons. Today we are past the stone age, the bronze age and the iron age. We experienced the rifle age where our warriors tried to face rifle wielding British redcoats with our valiant swords. We lost our country for 200 years, the valor of our soldiers did not avail them anything as iron weapons were overwhelmed by the power of gunpowder.

We must ensure that no matter who wins, Hindustan does not lose. Tell your friends about this site

We have no political leanings. We salute all of Hindustan's patriotic national parties and our brilliant leaders

UNDERSTAND FOREIGN POLICY OR PERISH

This is the nuclear age. The only weapon that is worth having is nuclear weapons. Nothing else will make a difference if there is an impending invasion. Let us analyze the case of Iraq. Iraq and Iran and the other Arab countries , just like the rest of the world had a 60 year window of time to do something about their destinies. 60 years of Soviet peace where the might of the Soviet Empire kept at bay all adventuring armies. The Arabs spent those 60 years incessantly fighting among themselves. And while they were not fighting one another, they spent the rest of their time spewing mind-less hatred against Israel, forgetting that after all the Israelis are their own kin. History is like a series of windows. These windows of opportunity open, and then they close. Once they close, they never open again. India and China wisely used those 60 years to grow militarily and economically. Now, the window has finally closed for the Arabs. They had 60 precious years to make something of themselves. With a little bit of brain activity they could have been the world's dominant superpower. Instead they are today the bombing ground of the world, the shooting range of the world, where great powers test out their bombers and artillery. They spent 60 years yapping about the Soviet threat and the danger of communism, while the real danger came from thousands of miles away. And to add to the mess they have nurtured the most vicious and self-damaging version of religious fanaticism. A brand of fanaticism that is so vicious it already defeats them as a civilization by enslaving half the population of their own country. By enslaving the women of their country, and keeping them illiterate, dumb and useless, they have already destroyed the future of the children that these women bring up. And how many brilliant scientists and leaders would have emerged from these millions and millions of women, enslaved by their own countries. It makes it much easier for any would-be conqueror. They only have to enslave 50% of the country, the other half is already living in slavery. History has bypassed the Arab world. Never will an Arab country hold a nuclear weapon in its hands. Mindless hatred, division and a total lack of thinking has defeated them. Without nuclear weapons, they are totally disarmed. Other weapons don't count, just like stone weapons did not count in the bronze age, and bronze weapons did not count in the iron age. This is the nuclear age from a weapons stand point, you are either nuclear or you are unarmed. There is no third option for national defense.

AMERICA STARTED WITH 13 STATES. NOW THEY HAVE 50 STATES. AND THEY CONSIDER THAT AS JUST A BEGINNING....

The countries of the world are being divided today into the nuclear armed world and the unarmed world. By the grace of God, we are today a nuclear country. A country capable of striking down any would-be invader. But there are many who tirelessly try to disarm us. The smiles and handshakes will be there only as long as we hold our nuclear sword. The moment we lay down the nuclear sword, they will decide our destiny. Not just our destiny. They will decide the destiny of a million future generations.

America has 'centers of study' dedicated to analyzing and studying each and every country on earth. These money-sucking institutes don't exist for the purpose of studying the lion-tailed monkey or the dodo-bird. They study the weaknesses of each country systematically.

They view each country on this earth as a potential American province. Remember how America grew from 13 states to 50 states. The red Indians who owned all of north America gave it up, piece by piece for any reason or no reason. The area which we call New York today was sold by the local red Indian chief to the American settlers in return for a bead necklace. The most expensive bead necklace in the history of mankind! Today they seek the same luck in negotiations with India. They want us to give up the nuclear sword, in return for whatever. Newspapers exult that if we give up our nuclear sword the Americans will give us F-16s !! wow! Such generosity. Would you sell your house to your neighbor to buy firewood ? It would be better to starve and freeze. Talking about F-16s, do our experts stop to think, in the event of any impending attack, foreign sellers can easily inactivate these aircraft remotely.

REMEMBER HOW THE BRITISH RULED US FOR 200 YEARS. REMEMEBER OUR MISTAKES. REMEMBER OUR MISTAKES.... REMEMBER OUR MISTAKES.....

It does not do any good that current generations of red Indians wonder why their forefathers lost the continent of North America. And it wont do any good when future generations of Indians wonder why their forefathers gave up the only weapon that can protect the honor and freedom of our land. But they will learn in the school the fateful year when India signed away its national safety.

The nuclear treaty is not a mistake. A mistake can be defined as something that can be corrected. A disaster is what cannot be corrected. If we sign this treaty we are signing away everything that we have gained at a tremendous price. This is not the 17 century, where countries get to make mistakes and still recovered from conquests and subjugation. If we are subjugated this time, we will never recover from it.

The Anglo-American empire has learnt from the mistakes it made with the last empire. There are many at the heart of the empire , which many in America call the 'invisible empire' who analyze and re-analyze how the British empire was lost. And they are ruthlessly determined that the next empire which they dream of and relentlessly pursue today will never go down. This time around, neither another Gandhi nor any freedom struggle will make a difference. The new empire aside from being more ruthless and inhuman is also different in that it is invisible in everyday life. Unlike the ubiquitous union jack of the Raj days, the new AngloAmerican empire prudently avoids any such provocative symbols that 'hurt the feelings' of subjugated people. There is no western flags flying in Iraq today. There is no viceroy ruling over Iraq. Iraq has its own 'elected government' and its own 'national flag' and even a stylish new 'national flag'. All that is missing is the Iraqi nation, which does not exist anymore, all that is left is the people of Iraq enslaved for eternity, while even their country is being plundered. The foreign oil rigs sinking deep into the body of Iraq is symbolic of the depth of humiliation and enslavement and subjugation. A foreign controlled 'free' media yaps constantly about the amazing new Iraq. The new Empire is invisible. They rule without calling themselves the rulers, the conquer country after country without any dramatic victory cries or statements of conquest. But the fact that it is invisible does not mean it is weak. It has arms of steel that can today crush most nations within a matter of days. The empire today has mastered the almost zen-like art of denying the existence and growth of the empire. The empire today no longer talks of colonizing the orient, or civilizing the savages. They talk of regime-change, they talk of re-construction, they talk of disarmament, they talk of human rights, they talk of democracy. They talk of sovereignty and freedom when they mention countries where they maintain thousands of occupation troops. Indeed the best way to keep a slave as a slave forever is to call him a free man. If you call him a slave, he may rebel. The country of Iraq is a case in point. Once an ancient civilization, then a country torn by medieval religious barbarity and then mindless aggression against its own kith and kin in neighboring countries. Now reduced to a castrated eunuch, directionless, lacking will or destiny, resigned to be led on a leash till the end of this earth. Iraq has achieved eternal slavery out of which it will never climb, it does not matter how many colorful 'sovereign' flags it has flying, it is today, like its hapless citizens in Abu Gharaib, a mere helpless animal on a leash, while conquerors hold the loot, and much more.

WHY DOESN'T INDIA HAVE ANY ALLIES ?

The most powerful nations on earth have banded themselves into aggressive alliances, willing to invade, willing and able to conquer. While there is other nations, still talking delusionally about disarmament and peace, still standing alone, totally alone, with not an ally in the world. Still nations disputing over petty boundary fence disputes, while the conquerors rove the seas around them, the way the Vikings roved the northern seas while deciding which lonely English village to loot burn and rape.

THE DISARM- DIVIDE- DESTROY FORMULA THAT VANQUISHED YUGOSLAVIA

Do you really want a nuclear free world? It was nuclear weapons which maintained world peace for 60 years. 60 glorious years of peace where Soviet power maintained world peace. There were many countries that danced in the streets and celebrated and fired guns in the air when the Soviet Union fell. The fall of godless communism. Indeed! Not many of these so called world leaders realize how the mere presence of Soviet power acted as a brake on reckless worldwide American invasions. There has been more war and destruction in the last 10 years than in the preceding 60 years. Entire countries, all the way from Europe to the middle east to Africa have been devastated by internal and external wars. Strong stable secular powers like Yugoslavia have been broken into bits and pieces, each piece offered the carrot of 'sovereignty. And once the country has been reduced to rubble, both on the map and on the streets, then comes the next stage, absorbing each one of these helpless worthless self-styled 'republics' into the American empire. The same mindless mobs that were screaming themselves into ecstasy as their little worthless towns were declared 'republics' are quiet as one by one their newly created 'countries' cease to exist except for the presence of a national anthem and a national flag and a bus stand.

Let us not be blind to the fact that many western strategists view the Yugoslavia victory as a case study on how India could be conquered. The tactics of divide and destroy has proven itself time and again that conquest is possible in any country. The concept of world conquest is openly talked about now in many circles in America. The disarm-divide-destroy formula has worked wonders in every country that it has been tried on.

WHY HAVE THEY NOT INVADED US YET ?

Let us be honest and open and discuss why India has not been invaded by the western empire for the last 60 years. It was not because we were 'non-aligned'. It was not because we were peace-loving. It was first of all because the western empire was busy with a lot of other things. Most of their time and energy and resources were occupied in the staring match with the soviet union. A campaign against India would have brought out a Soviet military response against the invaders as was hinted at by leaders like Breshnev. And on top of all that, we have been a nuclear power, quiet, low profile, but a nuclear power is a nuclear power.

WAKE UP AND REALIZE, WE ARE A TARGET. THE OSTRICH FOREIGN POLICY WILL NOT HELP US.

Wake up and realize, we are a target. Repeat that to yourself before you even think of signing anything. We are a target. We are a prize. We are a trophy. And there are powerful countries that have banded themselves together into aggressive alliances while we stand totally alone. Why cant our leaders realize the horror of the situation? We stand alone. Even today. We are all alone. We have a foreign service that employs more people than the army, we have thinkers and strategists and wisemen and chanakyas. But while the greatest military powers on earth group themselves into alliances that defend each other, we stand totally alone. Yes we talk about how Russia is our 'old and trusted friend' and how Israel is our 'natural ally' etc. What exactly does that mean? When American bombers take off from airfields in Turkey and Singapore and Seychelles and head for the skies of our Hindustan, will any of these 'friends' of ours raise a finger to help? Will they give us advance warning of the impending air-raids? Will their missile batteries bring down the incoming invaders? Hindustan does not need 'friends' who will drink beer with us on 'world peace' parties where we put on display tribal dancers. We need allies who have common strategic interests, we need allies who don't fantasize about colonizing us. We need allies who will fight alongside us if we are attacked. Do we have even one ally? No!

THE SECRET ABOUT 'WORLD ORGANIZATIONS'

Over the last two decades we have signed dozens if not hundreds of international agreements that probably used up more paper than fifty schools in India. Who creates these agreements? And for whom are these agreements meant for? Who does it benefit?

Most of these treaties are made up by some kind of 'world' body or 'international' organization. When in reality each one of these so called international organizations, including the UN are nothing more than little 'made-in-USA' companies which have an office in New York and a blonde front desk receptionist and a phone book that has phone numbers of prime ministers and presidents around the world. We are a country of one billion people. Let us clarify that further. We are a country of 1000000000 people. We should be creating these treaties according to what we need and they trying to get the world to sign them , instead of sending fifty delegates each time one of these one-room 'world' organizations in New York blows its dog-whistle. And what kind of treaties do we need?

INTERNATIONAL TREATIES (AND CHESS) EXPLAINED

First of all, think about how the Americans are playing the international chess game. Russia wont sell us fuel, supposedly because they signed a piece of paper that says they wont give uranium to countries that haven't signed the NPT. America wont sell us fuel because a nuclear armed India is very hard to invade. Japan won't sell us some items because Japan is 'peace loving' and our nuclear ambitions give them peptic ulcer supposedly. If America slaps sanctions on us tomorrow, an oil blockade or computer parts export ban or a ban on business out-sourcing to India, there is a hundred little address-less countries that will jump on the bandwagon, flash their happy little smiles at the UN and say 'Me vote too. Bad India stop nukes now. Me love Bush, he sent me new pepsi machine'. And remember, it is not just India that gets hit with sanctions. America wields the sanctions sword with dexterity against all countries, but ONE AT A TIME. And each time a country is a target, all the rest of the countries rush over like little monkeys to hold down the latest victim and help the master thrash him. Witness the Iraq castration party. How many little countries rushed over with their 'contributions'. Yes the contributions were mostly symbolic, like sending a pathetic traffic policeman or a basket of bananas or maybe some scared soldiers. But the bottom line is, they participated in the rape of a country that had never ever harmed them. And deep in their hearts every third world country that supported the Iraq invasion knows that their turn will come, it is only a question of time.

So keeping in view the sanctions game, how about an Indian led international treaty that would prevent participating countries from ever joining any kind of sanctions against a member country? A no-sanctions treaty. How about something like that? Something that would genuinely enhance our position in the world and increase our power.

THE TREATY THAT WE NEED

How about another treaty? A treaty with the Russians that would give us access to Uranium in return for a military alliance which would involve us actively participating in defending Russia against all threats from the Indian Ocean region. Want something bolder? How about an Indo-Russian-Chinese alliance that could sell security to other countries? Some type of invasion insurance , if you want to call it that. A Russia-China-India pyramid alliance would be more than capable of keeping peace and deterring invasion in most parts of the world. How many billions would the countries of the world be willing to pay for security? No longer would any of the alliance countries have to worry about military expenditure. The military will pay for itself with such a venture if well planned and executed courageously. Many countries will be willing to pay 5-10% of their GDP for protection against foreign invasion. Such an alliance would have to focus on the big picture, instead of on a petty border fence. If we fight over every cow that grazes at the border fence, our countries will end up with neither fence nor cow nor country. While worrying about the fence, also look up and see the vultures circling overhead, waiting for the opportunity to strike.

Yes it is a very bold strategy, but that is how the history of the world has been shaped in the last thousand years. It takes courage, national pride, ambition , and yes, it takes a lot of testosterone.. Just as in love, in foreign policy fortune favours the brave.

SUPPORT OUR PRIVATE SECTOR COMPANIES

While we are on the topic of national security and global power, something else deserves mention. We cannot be and will not be a global military power if we keep the private sector out of the defence industry. Corporate giants like Tata, Reliance etc are more important to our global military destiny than buying refurbished air-craft carriers. Let these companies apply their incredible assets to building our military power. Let them invest in defence production and research facilities. It will yield richer rewards than buying used factories and vineyards in some foreign country, where there is no guarantee of future ownership. And don't grudge them their rewards. They are Hindustan's own, their success is our country's success. And sit back and watch as they build our fighters and submarines and aircraft carriers. That is what will make us a global power. Not by buying some fancy flying machine from the Americans, which they can inactivate or disable electronically in the event of any conflict.

THE SECRET OF AMERICAN STRENGTH..

What is it that has made America so powerful? Two things. First, an economy that is built on innovation and invention, where thousands of Americans are constantly inventing new things, these may be something as trivial as a flexible drinking straw (not so trivial if you count the millions of dollars it made for the inventor) or something as advanced as miniaturized multiple reentry nuclear warhead. This spirit of innovation comes from an educational system that has focused on teaching children how to think instead of how to memorize. While we train 'programmers' they train people who create the programming languages that we try to program with. The second thing that makes America powerful is the way in which they have actively used their military overseas, fearlessly , recklessly but at the same time carefully creating military alliances everywhere. The magic of the American military strategy is evident when we see countries who have ancient enemities with each other like Serbia and Bosnia or Greece and Turkey or Saudi Arabia and Israel who hate each other still willing to come together and fight under American command against America's enemies. But before we venture into something on those lines, we need a nuclear strike force with global reach and enough warheads to reach any enemy anywhere, on land, earth, sky or space. If you have noticed, America doesn't fight with nukes. The nukes are used as a shield, while the invasions are all using conventional forces. The nukes convince each potential victim that it is their destiny to lose, indeed their peace-loving duty to lose quietly and merge into the shadows as the empire marches on.

WE MUST INFLUENCE PUBLIC OPINION IN CHINA

We talked about military treaties with Russia and China. To make that possible we need to understand that they have their global ambitions. What is it that these countries get from America that makes them withhold technology and nuclear fuel from us? And what is it that we can give them that would be sufficient to overcome whatever incentive the Americans are giving them to cooperate against us? Another angle that we are not giving any attention to is the fact that in the last 100 years, we have done absolutely nothing to influence public opinion in China, most Chinese don't even know what India or Indians look like or sound like, they have never heard Hindi. And that, from a diplomatic-military standpoint, is pathetic. That is 100 years of opportunity wasted. Our colleges offer German and French to students. How many Indian colleges offer Chinese as a subject? We cannot get China on our side unless we influence public opinion in China.

Many of us think of India and China as two huge countries. Not everyone thinks like that though. The strategists of the west see our two countries the same way the East India company saw the little kingdoms of India that they so skillfully outmaneuvered and conquered and ruled for 200 years. Influencing the Chinese people and thus the Chinese government should be foreign policy priority. We cannot become a superpower without China on our side. It is as simple as that. Even America with all its military might carefully nurtures the military alliance with Western Europe, Canada and Australia, the common link being race and blood. We don't have a common race or language or blood with the Chinese, but we have religious and cultural ties that are just as handy and can be easily built up to a level where the average Chinese feels enough kinship for India. Listen up Bollywood here is your big chance to contribute to building our destiny as a global power.

THE BAD TEMPERED OLD MAN NEXT DOOR IS NOT THE DANGER

Notwithstanding the fact that America imports everything from China including American flags, America still sent ships into the South China sea with the threat of 'defending' Taiwan against China. Taiwan being a rebel province of China. Imagine the scenario where America sends ships to the Gujarat coast to 'defend' Pakistan against India. What would our military leaders do? Would they dare to launch Brahmos against the American ships? Re-think that scenario, where India and China stand together, where there is enough cultural affinity built up, where there is enough common military and economic interests where we have a treaty that says we will defend our countries together against any enemy anywhere. Would a foreign ship even dare threaten our coast? The combined nuclear arsenal of India and China alone would be enough to balance out the rest of the world.

China is like a bad tempered old man who lives next door. But rest assured, he won't be the one who breaks into your house in the middle of the night. He is irritating, hard to understand, and old. But the one who wants to break into and loot our house is some one else.

China and India have common enemies. We have a common history. We have a common history of being divided, conquered and ruled by invaders who came from thousands of miles away with pretentions of friendship and peace. We have religious bonds that go back to the days of Emperor Ashoka. We may not share political philosophies, but those are not important. What is important is that we find enough common ground to stand together, because if we don't, we will fall separately.

THE ENEMY WILL BE AT THE GATE SOON. IT IS TIME TO WAKE UP !

Do not forget that the middle east is being re-shaped. Thanks to Gorbachev's untreated insanity, Russia is busy catching its breath, and America is using these few precious years to re-shape the middle east. Within the next 3 years, from Syria to Pakistan will be one province under American command, and it will encompass Syria, Lebanon, Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan and Pakistan. Oh yes they will be allowed to keep their 'national' flags and their 'presidents' and their 'elections' and their 'sovereignty'. The frontier will then be at our border. The Americans will stand at our western border, the way Alexander's Macedonian looters stood centuries back. They will then begin to take a close interest in 'democracy' and 'religious freedom' and 'childrens rights' and 'gay rights' in Rajasthan. They will come up with 'laws' even more dramatic than what Dalhousie brought up. By then it will be too late, especially if we give up our nuclear weapons now.

If you are a current or future member of parliament, read about Indian history, read about how we lost India piece by piece to the craftiness and ingenuity of a tiny island kingdom 6000 miles away.

STRENGTH IS WHAT MAKES ALL OTHER VALUES POSSIBLE

There is a time to talk about world peace and disarmament and no-nukes. That time is not now. This is the time to build our defenses. This is the time to build our arsenal, this is the time to seriously prepare for the defense of Fortress India. And that does not mean adding more border guards to shoot at the pathetic Pakistanis. That means speeding up our missile program, speeding up our nuclear program, bringing in private capital into the defence field, building our own nuclear submarines and strategic bombers. That means building REAL defence ties with other countries which means treaties that will make sure other countries will fight alongside us. That means that we find allies who will participate in defending us if enemy bombers are headed towards our skies. A bomber aircraft that approaches Mumbai from the west should be shot down by fighter aircraft based in the Maldives. The missile that approaches Delhi from Turkey should be shot down over Uzbekstan. That is real foreign policy. That is power. That will be an Indian Century.

INDIAN CITIZENSHIP FOR EVERYONE OF INDIAN BLOOD- A STRATEGIC NECESSITY

From time immemorial, our country has had the misfortune of being betrayed. And always, that betrayal came from one of us. We were never betrayed by the outsider. It was not an outsider who betrayed Maha Rana Sanga to the hordes of Babar. It was always one of us, who looked like one of us, acted like one of us, and talked like one of us. But his heart was not Hindustani.

No one loves Hindustan more than the sons and daughters of Hindustan who dwell in far off lands. In the words of Hitler, you don't know how precious your country is until you see the borders of your country, and that is when you understand why it is so important to defend those borders.

When the first nuclear blasts resonated in the Rajput heartland, the first ones who greeted it with heartfelt pride and passionate tears were Hindustanis living on foreign soil. They heard in the thunder of Rajathan the new voice of India. The voice of fire and thunder that will not beg and beseech, but will command and conquer.

We have heard the argument, how can a person have two loyalties. This argument has been advanced as the main argument against full dual citizenship. Loyalty does not come from a piece of paper. The passport is only a travel document. True loyalty comes from the heart. No matter what country an Indian lives in, no matter what foreign language he speaks or what passport he holds, his loyalty is always to India, and India alone. When we kick that love and loyalty and reject it, we was throwing out of the window a tremendous strategic tool that would be to our longterm advantage.

During the days of the German Reich, Hitler hit on an interesting concept as part of his grand plan for world conquest. "Where ever there are Germans, that is Germany". And by that definition Greater Germany extended from the Pacific to the Atlantic and beyond, from the little Baltic Germanic towns of the Soviet frontier to German communities in North America. The concept was not successful, since he took on too many countries in battle, all at the same time, including the Soviet Union. It is no secret that our nationalists dream of a day when our Hindustan will be above every other country in the world. But to accomplish that, we have to find allies in every country and every continent. The Soviets had a ready-made solution to find loyal allies and supporters in every country- the communist movement. The Americans have a artificial but just as effective solution to find supporters and fans in every country- the lure of 'freedom', the Hollywood created images of a 'free country' that has caught the fancy of young men and women everywhere in a way that communism caught the fancy of the young years back. If we are to be a super-power, it cannot be accomplished by military might alone. We need to represent something that millions of young men and women all over the world can identify with, something that they would passionately love and sacrifice for.

There are millions of people of Indian origin living in other countries. Right now, India denies them Indian citizenship, merely because they hold foreign passports. Those foreign passports are merely travel documents. Those documents mean nothing. The only thing that matters is "Dil hai Hindustani". Any one with even one drop of Indian blood in them should be granted full Indian citizenship, with an Indian passport. Yes, they will have the responsibility to pay taxes here and the obligation to bear arms to defend our land if required. This single step alone expands our global reach beyond measure.

The topic of citizenship is one in which we should really learn from American farsightedness. No one can 'automatically' lose American citizenship unless he or she goes to an American embassy or government office and formally renounces American citizenship. Whereas Indians can lose Indian citizenship by the mere act of someone even involuntarily giving them a foreign passport. This policy is to our detriment. The current OCI and PIO is totally insufficient. Where ever there is Indians, it is India, and we need to give our people the badge of honor that is the Indian Citizenship and the Indian Passport.

I cannot think of any reason why we should say 'No' to a situation where millions of people living in hundreds of countries owe allegiance to the Indian flag, pay taxes to the Indian Government and will do anything to protect and promote our interests.

We need to find countries that are potential allies, an ally being defined as someone who will fight on the battlefield for us. We need to find supporters and friends in every country who will support India and fight for our interests. And that happens if we are prepared to support them and fight for their interests. And this starts with granting full Indian citizenship to everyone who is of Indian ancestry (except those living in Pakistan and Bangladesh and other countries that are founded and based on religious hatred). Voting rights should of course hinge on whether the person is resident in India or not.

And those citizenships should not be mere scraps of paper. We should support and defend our own with the vigor that Israel displays when it defends its own. No Indian should ever be extradited to any foreign country. Our legal system is superior to anything anywhere else, and we should act with the authority that this gives us.

Our grand plan to win friends around the world should not stop with consolidating the loyalty of the Indian community worldwide. We also need to reach out to related races such as the Red Indians, who have feelings of kinship for India. These people languish in the United States with almost no hope in life, their children doomed to lives of alcoholism and drug use and stark poverty. Give some of their children seats in Indian universities and colleges. See how we can win over to our side a big community in the US that has never even seen India. Similar strategies should be worked out for each and every country and region on earth.

The idea of India as the world's foremost superpower is not just possible, but totally achievable in our lifetime. All it needs is the courage to think and the willingness to act on these thoughts.

WHEREVER THERE ARE INDIANS- IT IS INDIA

"When the first nuclear blasts resonated in the Rajput heartland, the first ones who greeted it with heartfelt pride and passionate tears were Hindustanis living on foreign soil. They heard in the thunder of Rajathan the new voice of India. The voice of fire and thunder that will not beg and beseech, but will command and conquer. Grant our patriots who are living overseas full Indian Citizenship, Passports and Voting rights."
