Exactly indians ka yeh haal hai aik chor doosray ko chor keh rha hai. So easily they forgot for last 40 years they were begging usa and canada for nuclear fuel due to the fuel sale embargo slammed on them for their theft of it from canada.I do no see any disrespect in the statement. The quality of a scientist is determined by the number of his publications in tier one journals followed by the citations. While judging him based on this strict scientific criteria, Dr. Qadeer's statement is neither wrong nor in bad taste. Secondly, he was interviewed by BBC and he must have been answering to questions asked by the interviewer.
Those Bharatis who are trumpeting Khan as smuggler should never forget that 'Smiling Budha', the first nuclear test by Bharat, itself happened due to the stealing of nuclear fuel from the research reactor provided by Canada for solely civilian research purposes. A thief calling other a smuggler is quite funny and it becomes even funnier when Pakistan is not a signatory to NPT.
Aq khan was interviewed and asked a question , he gave the remark, its best to hear the interview cuz indian media intentionally puts spin on others' statements.
-------------
Anyways, on topic
Secondly, his comments cud also be due to extraordinary unnecessary bollywood eulogizing of apj by india, that see we are oh so secular and protector of muslims' rights, we made a muslim, president.
. Yea 4months back 12 ppl arrested in gujrat riots' allegations were freed by indian courts, indians must remember that very well. So much for muslims' rights
Someone must ask what Apj kalam , in the role of president had done for indian ppl? We will see and accept when a muslim will become ur PM.
And then Aq didnt necessarily make the remark cuz apj was an indian ,someone from other side,but because they both come from same community i.e., scientific community.
