Muddy Unclear Waters

New developments bring me back to the Indo-American nuclear deal.

The left has shown surprising spunk in standing up to the government so far. However, there is more and more talk of opposition to the "overall strategic relationship". Some other critics in the media keep referring to American actions in the middle east.

I am afraid, the opposition to the deal is diluted rather than strengthened by the obvious anti-Americanism on account of economic dogma or religious sympathies.

Let us not lose sight of the fact that we as a country and many of us as individuals do have and will continue to have multifaceted relationships with America and Americans whether the nuclear deal lives or, hopefully, dies.

To ensure widespread support for the later outcome, there is a need to keep the discussion focussed on the merits of the situation which are incontrovertibly awesome.
