h(O)pe it is..

Last week America made History by electing Barack Obama. It was good to see among many things respect bestowed upon America and its people by the International community after eight years of .. (Im out of words here).



His promises of change were obviously important (hopefully he keeps them) but the most important policy decision for me would be that towards India (No.. I am not referring to outsourcing here). Economic policies would continue to thrive under any administration but I hope he changes the political landscape which has been skewed for so long in favor of Pakistan. India did make its fair share of strategic blunders in the past but I hope all that changes and America adopts a more 'la israeli' kind of policy towards India.



The pro-israel policy did not happen overnight but happened because of the strength of the its diaspora, Lobby and the influence they have on the various walks of American life.
