I am writing this in haste because time is essence. This must reach immediately to all political action committees in the United States that are run by Indian Americans and all other organizations, such as India caucus, who work to promote India’s interests in America’s foreign policy dimensions. So that they can quickly disseminate to the Indian American community before they go out to vote tomorrow. Barak Obama’s statement virtually linking Kashmir problem to Afghanistan should come as an eye opener to those Indian Americans who are rooting for him. I had warned them before in my earlier articles that a democratic president will not be good for India’s interest. The Democratic administration has never been good for India as far as India-US relations are concerned. I know that India is mature and strong enough to resist any adventure on part of any nation, including America, which would amount to interfering in its internal affairs, particularly in relation to Kashmir. But such an immature observation, that too by someone who would be heading the world’s most powerful nation is dangerous for the region, should he seek to translate immaturity into action. This also shows Obama’s shallow knowledge about the international politics and issues. India will easily cope with any eventuality, as it has done so in past in the face of sanctions imposed by the United States, but why not to nip his nonsense in the bud when it is possible to do so. Barak Obama will turn the clock backward by trying to intervene in the Kashmir dispute and once again usher in the era of hyphenated relationship of American with India and Pakistan. Therefore, I once again appeal to all Indian Americans to vote for John McCain. Republicans are always better bets for India. Vote for John McCain, please.
This is for Barak Obama: Stay away from Kashmir. India will come to you if it requires your services. Until then, it is in the best interest of our relationship that you don’t bring Kashmir in it. I am probably among those who are ardent supporters of India’s close ties with the United States in all fields. But that is not so at the expense of challenging India’s sovereignty and integrity. India needs America only as much as America needs India.
