"SO BLOODY WHAT THE US USED AN "ATOM BOMB"... ?
This is the most ridiculous comparison ever, Ok for what reason? seriously do you even know? do i even need to bother explaining? go and find out why it was used, because anybody with half a brain knows its completely irrelevant and cannot be used as a comparison here,
Besides an atom bomb is not even on par with the strength of the warheads of today, "
Yes I do know. Japan was in talks with Russia regarding surrender. The US was miffed at this. They wanted Japan for themselves. The US started the war with Japan via illegal sanctions. This sounds familiar.
The US industrialists wanted to get in on WW2 so they could make oodles of money and they did. Lend lease as a classic example. WW2 is where the rot started. It just gets worse decade by decade.
God help us all.

The surrender of the Empire of Japan on September 2, 1945 brought the hostilities of World War II to a close. By the end of July 1945, the Imperial Japanese Navy was incapable of conducting operations and an Allied invasion of Japan was imminent. While publicly stating their intent to fight on to the bitter end, Japan's leaders at the Supreme Council for the Direction of the War (the "Big Six") were privately making entreaties to the neutral Soviet Union, to mediate peace on terms favorable to the Japanese. The Soviets, meanwhile, were preparing to attack the Japanese, in fulfillment of their promises to the United States and the United Kingdom made at the Tehran and Yalta Conferences. On August 6, 1945, the United States dropped an atomic bomb on the city of Hiroshima. Late in the evening of August 8, 1945, in accordance with Yalta agreements but in violation of the Soviet–Japanese Neutrality Pact, the Soviet Union declared war on Japan, and soon after midnight on August 9, 1945, it invaded the Japanese puppet state of Manchukuo. Later that day the United States dropped an atomic bomb on Nagasaki. The combined shock of these events caused Emperor Hirohito to intervene and order the Big Six to accept the terms for ending the war that the Allies had set down in the Potsdam Declaration. After several more days of behind-the-scenes negotiations and a failed coup d'état, Hirohito gave a recorded radio address to the nation on August 15. In the radio address, called the Gyokuon-hōsō ("Jewel Voice Broadcast"), he announced the surrender of Japan.
The US started the war with Japan via illegal sanctions. This sounds familiar.

Nothing you wish makes a difference. You have to get your own house in order before you point fingers to other nationals. Inflation has always been part of the Indian economy regardless of the oil. You my friend are clouded by the Indian MSM.

I agree Inflation has a lot to do with Oil. But it all depends if its Oil Based economy (which the US is one). India has mass public transportation that worked for years without the boom in the personal automobiles up until the early 90's (not that there wern't personal vehicles ownership existed before 90's..but significantly less).
What does your point about NATO and Libya or invasion/war/conflict/skirmish of Iraq or iran by the US has anything to do with India and possible US Sanctions?edit on 16-3-2012 by hp1229 because: edit content

Nice ambition and wishful thinking however everyone knows that is next to impossible. Just look at the history and you shall know that being unique is what got them in trouble over the last few thousand years from several civilizations. Its the Brits that actually forced the Indian Independence Movement to form the most diverse nation from some 500 plus states down to 22 states that it represents today. Do you think the Indian Economy can solely thrive on its own? If not US, they will have to deal with other nations for global trade (Crude Oil) if they intend to keep their growth at a constant rate in comparison to China. Unless it wants to follow the country's father 'Mahatma Gandhi' and one of his motto...'Self Sufficiency' which is next to impossible in Globalization.
I agree it is a tough situation to be for India (caught between thriving economy and getting with the international program).
Just a wiki link about Natural Resources. I'm sure there are more credible sources out there.
