 Barack & Michelle
'I
Am Reluctant To Seek Changes In The N-Deal' In an exclusive interview
with Outlook, the US presidential hopeful speaks on a range of
subjects: the nuclear deal, Mahatma Gandhi, his ability to reconcile
Islam with modernity, and how he wouldn't have put all eggs in the
Musharraf basket.
What
Obama said:
On the nuclear deal (with India)
"I continue to hope this process
can be concluded before the end of the year.... I am reluctant to seek
changes."
His remarks suggest he is opposed to
renegotiating the deal, as the BJP has demanded. Should the deal not be
sealed this year, Obama as president isn't likely to impose new
conditions, a fear the UPA has constantly stoked to compel its critics
to fall in line. |

 Daya Stand Being there in Delhi among so many of the young people I have grown to love renewed my energy and restored my intention to stay here among them a while longer. This is a very moving time here in Dhasa and it doesn't feel like whatever I've come here to do is finished yet.
Instead of trying to protest against the Olympic torch
in Delhi, the Tibetans decided to create their own
torch and relay. It was a beautiful huge peaceful
experience with many government officials and
Bollywood celebrities speaking at the opening ceremony
and supporting us. We marched from Raj Ghat on the
Yamuna River (where Mahatma Gandhi was cremated) to
the designated protest area near Jantar Mantar (one of
Jai Singh II's observatories just south of Connaught
Place). |

 Monsanto's We are told genetic foods are safe but in this documentary we are told something very different, and what we are told in this documentary is backed up by shocking facts. The connections between Monsanto and the FDA are very alarming, many highly influential politicians have worked for and or have tie with Monsanto. We are told that the FDA can be trusted but when you look at the facts they prove they can't when it comes to Monsanto.
Look at this: Clarence Thomas, Prior to being the Supreme Court Judge who put George W. Bush in office, Clarence Thomas was Monsanto's lawyer, Anne Veneman, Former US Secretary of Agriculture Anne Veneman was on the Board of Directors of Monsanto's Calgene Corporation..., |

 Taliban Goons
In Washington, both Republicans and Democrats regularly reiterate the link between Islamic radicalism in Pakistan and the safety of the American homeland. Across the porous border in Afghanistan, NATO forces also claim to be fighting Islamic insurgents. And just recently, Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh declared that India was facing a common threat with Pakistan, the threat emanating from religious extremism.
But who exactly are these Muslim men (and women, in some instances) who have been painted with the broad terrorist brush since 9/11? |
