US vetoes India's threat to act against Pak.
The Bush administration has placed a restraining hand on India’s threat to punish Pakistan citing the Iraq precedent, rejecting New Delhi’s contention that it had a better case to act than Washington had with Baghdad, and promising to put more pressure on Islamabad to curtail violence in Kashmir.
This is a classic case of double standards.
"Iraq invaded, occupied and brutalized Kuwait in 1990. The international community came together to drive Iraq out of Kuwait in 1991. A decade earlier, Iraq attacked another neighbor Iran and used chemical weapons in that war. The Iraqi Government had used chemical weapons to kill thousands of its own people,” the official maintained.
Don’t the Americans realize that Pakistan has been sponsoring invasion of Indian sovereign territory for well over two decades. The Iraqi government may have killed its own people. The Pakistani government has sponsored killing of thousands of Indians and displacing many thousands more. Actually we have a better case against the Pakistanis than the Americans against Iraq. Pakistan poses an imminent danger to India due to the virtue of being a neighbor.
Well, there is no point in arguing with Mr Bush and gang. Secondly, who cares whether America vetoes or not.
