Incurious George's Ingenuous Plan
Some months ago India was crying in alarm at the sale of dozens of F-16 fighter to
Pakistan.
Now, we hear a
deal that throws all international nuclear agreements to the winds with India. And oh, by the way, we're selling them lots of newer jets-
F-18s and other unspecified advanced technology- too. It is whispered quietly China is the fear. So we
"let" them build as many fissile nukes as they want at 22 uninspected sites. And damn that UN and the IAEA anyway, 'cause they wouldn't play with the Company over Iraq and won't over Iran either.
We're playing poker at a chess game again. When they speak of fear, the motivation is greed. Ask Lockheed-Martin or any of the other Carlyle Group members who'll directly profit from this deal and the tension between India and Pakistan.
But whisper.
Nothing brings in the blank check like endless war.
