You completely missed the point. America only cares about what goes around in ME Islamic countries because they have OIL. They don't care nor will take any position on this (BD/Burma) area because there isn't any oil or valuable resource for them.

US got large oil and gas reserve though and they are currently the largest oil producing country, not to mention their bio oil

Iraq has more oil... thats why the Us fights a war on "terrorism" there.

US doesn't care about Burma, they don't wanna go to war, there despite all the Buddhist terrorism, because there is no oil there.

It is America's own prerogative where to act and where not to. It is wrong to blame everything bad on it. Many have forgotten that during east Pakistan time it donated rice and condensed milk and provided vaccinations against many diseases including smallpox to the school children for many years at a stretch to reinstate their health although they were Muslims.

People survived. Many Muslims here could have died of malnutrition without this help and most of the people in BD are the descendants of those who survived. The US also helped us by donating long white clothes known as Markin Kapar. It saved us from remaining naked, and now after many decades, we are selling our high-quality textile products to its people that help our people to survive.

So, it is not if some countries have Muslim population that the USA strikes. It does so because of international politics and in order to subdue communism and anarchism. I would not say it does not make mistakes in the process. However, the world is more peaceful because of the US policy. Take it out of the picture every country will be at each other's throat.

In 1965, India was at the door step of a huge famine. Tens of millions of people could parish if there was no emergency wheat supply from the US. In that year, United States shipped one-fifth of it's entire wheat harvest to India to prevent the famine. Although India was then allied with Soviet Union, not United States. USA could have used this wheat supply as a pressure tactic to achieve geo-political concession from India. But USA did not gain any geo-political objective by this huge help to India. As we can see, in the following years, India became even more Soviet friendly and antagonistic towards USA.

In 1992, USA conducted a humanitarian intervention in Somalia. Where warring factions was using food as a weapon. Thousands of civilian were dying in hunger. In that intervention, US lost 43 of it's soldiers in a mission where there was no geo-political interest at stake for US.

Similarly US intervention in Bosnia and Kosovo to save Muslim population there also served no material benefits for US. In these interventions, US was vehemently opposed by Russia and China. Russia and China was aligned with genocidal Serbs. For the last 70 years, Russia and China has became the default patronizer of genocidal regimes around the world. From North Korea to Khmer Rouge Cambodia, from Darfur Sudan to junta lead myanmar. Syria's Assad, Gaddafi's Libya, Saddam's Iraq. Everywhere China and Russia are with the genocidal dictators. American hands are not clean either entirely. It had to compromise with some military rulers in it's fight against Communism. But in most of the cases, US is in the right sides.

Ppl now busy with their smartphones have no idea of what drove Indian decisions and why the defense area was totally neglected till 1962.

Also see the reference to Pakistan being a wheat surplus country while India was having consecutive famines.

Also usa did stop food aid in response to indias criticizms wrt Vietnam.

The guy you are talking to is of the belief his country would even exist like it does now...without any Indian help (zilch, nada)...and that India "stole" what was rightfully only "theirs". I called him out on it and he has me on ignore since lol. So he is pretty stupid fellow...and he has seriously lingering issues/complexes regarding the very formation of his country. So naturally he will take the US perspective on any assistance to India in cold war as some be-all end-all narrative....because he is not a nuanced fellow, and never will be.

You may be right when you say Indian IA had helped our Muktis to liberate our land from Pakistan. But, otherwise, India has been incapable to do any better for BD. It is India that is getting benefitted all along after the 1971 Liberation War. So, can you tell us what benefits India gave us since then before you brag again?

Talk positive and extend thanks to the country that provided unbiased food aid to your hungry India. Here you are criticizing the USA for not giving you aid because you criticized it on Vietnam. Well, the USA was the donor country and India was at the receiving end. A beggar's hand remain at the lower level than the donor when receiving alms. You are waving your tongue as if India itself was giving aid to a hungry USA.

Why a 3rd rate country like India should criticize USA's policy?

And I was going to criticize @Nilgiri for being too critical of Bangladeshis..... .now I see where he is coming from.
If u read again I was negating the assertion that usa didn't use food aid as a pressure tactic.
And India didn't accept the food as aid but asked it to be in the form of a loan.
The link I posted was to educate the young pdfers on realities of the 50s and 60s. Guess this is the wrong site.
Rest of your rant is unintelligible , not going to waste my time with ppl with obvious iq issues.

That's all I need to hear (given it wont come out of homo sappy mouth...who does way more bragging than anyone else here about BD liberation effort). Keep the emotional stuff after that to yourself...after first dwelling on what would have happened if India refused to host or provide an iota of weaponry and training to your mukti (forget what happened in december climax for argument sake). You are no vast land like the US that has significant strategic depth to shelter and sustain rebel revolutionaries....like washington at valley forge. Capiche?

How long you think just barely getting by only stealing scraps of arms and munitions from the Pakistanis would have sustained your effort?...with India in more of an alliance/aid with them rather than you? You think BD would even exist now?

I am not asking for your gratefulness (too many have proven incapable of it here, so I simpy do not care anymore)....but you can surely spare just a bit of logical cognisance that your homo sappy compatriot dare not even indulge. You soil has plenty of Indian soldiers blood spilled there, when it could easily just be zero (and you likely not even here to type to me like you do)....never forget that.

Always always...give BD ppl some chance to reply here in the interim...before you reply to what I type. Its just better that way, so you can see why I have the tone I do here. It did not come out of thin air and is not really my natural state.
