India expels American diplomat

How cute? enough to send your Nuke CBG to ours and then Chicken out? CHICKEN!!!!:D
We know you are chicken,Who only show your power against developing nations, You will shite in your pants if you challenge, Iran,North Korea,China,Russia,India. Try that and see ! :D

That right they attack countries poor small countries that cant defend on their own.

Here lies the essence of the entire episode.

In my opinion the lady did wrong by violating local laws and should be punished for it - something Indian politicians & bureaucrats are not used to at home.

However, the rub lies in the manner of arrest & the strip search that followed . This may be an accepted norm in the US but not in India hence the anger.

India in my opinion is doing right by tightening the screws on US diplomats and their activities. This morning I read in the TOI that a number of vehicles bearing registration No CD 77 were challaned for violations like dark films on windows ( which is against the law) and wrong parking.

The US has got used to being treated as more equal than others for far too long and seem to have given themselves the right to ride rough shod over others. This has to stop.

US ridiculed our judicial system by "evacuating" Indian citizens from India .that also a reason
 
Read word ' claims ' carefully ....and ponder over it !

Well... we could go on all day doubting everything everyone says but, for whatever it's worth, this is the US marshalls' response to Khobragade's claims. The fine print is that a visual inspections of cavities, without physical contact, is part of standard procedure and it could be construed as a "cavity search" by one person and not another.
 
To all, It is an age old tradition in diplomatic circle, no matter even if one is areal criminal or spy or something. Remember the cold war era, where each month you would see US expelling some Soviet Diplomat and equal number of US diplomats being expelled and vice versa. And each time the news was printed in some corner of the inner page. Things will be back to normal, but with eroded trust!! Now every US move will be seen through suspicion by India!!
 
Could not they do just some x-ray or some MRI scan?

I believe US intensianally did such filthy thing, but do not know why. I would welcome if India can react in the same manner but it would be justified unilke what US did at first.
 
Both countries could have conducted the whole affair discreetly and diplomatically, especially India. India acted very childish in the whole episode.

A huge setback to Indo US relations.
 
Don't you read??? WE don't bully babies. End of story. When you are ready for your bottle, we'll still be there. It will be warm and nutritious. No hard feelings. After all, we understand that babies are not "fully" responsibility for their tantrums ....
oh come on now don't u lie,u just bully babies only.don't have the guts to play with the big boys.
 
i feel shame for being an asian.we should stop being puppets to america.its the time that some asian countries like pak,india,chaina and iran should get together and rule the world..westerners dont want to see us united coz if we get united it will be the end for their supremacy.
 
Well. In this matter, Indians have shown themselves to be babies ..... Cry! Cry! Cry!

I have lost some respect for the sophistication of the Indian people, I am sorry to say.
we are also sorry to say that usa lost all the trust and respect which painstakingly started to build recently.it;s has done considerable damage to the relations which i think won't sooth easily.the problem is u don't know what we are against,we are not against the case but the way u people manhandled this case.

not only india even pakistan should not trust usa.now its our turn to play our cards.
 
Heh!! WE don't sanction babies! We send them pampers in a CARE package. Enjoy!
again u lie u just sanction babies only.we don't care about ur sanctions we have lived it and iran is living with it.do send pampers in a care package to ur regional ally,they need it badly than us.

Indian diplomat Devyani Khobragade row 'the most stupid thing to do'


Recognising the damage that the Indian diplomat Devyani Khobragade, IFS, row has done to the India-US relationship, there is a realisation in the top American leadership that "it was the most stupid thing to do" on their part and that they would now have to "work overtime" to bring back the ties on track.

As Indian diplomat Devyani Khobragade landed in New Delhi last night, there was a sense of relief in the US government, with officials expressing their determination to move forward the relationship, which President Barack Obama has described as the defining partnership of the 21st century.

"The US and India enjoy a broad and deep friendship, and this isolated episode is not indicative of the close and mutually respectful ties that we share," White House Press Secretary Jay Carney said.

Obama, sources said, was regularly updated on the development and National Security Advisor Susan Rice too was monitoring the situation; so was Secretary of State John Kerry, it is believed.

"This has clearly been a challenging time in the US-India relationship. We expect and hope that this will now come to closure and the Indians will now take significant steps with us to improve our relationship and return it to a more constructive place," State Department Spokesperson Jen Psaki told reporters.

Arrested on December 12, Devyani Khobragade, 39, was strip- searched and held with criminals, triggering a row between the two countries with India retaliating by downgrading privileges of certain category of US diplomats among other steps.

Now that the Devyani Khobragade has returned to India, sources said that there was "furious" reaction in the top American leadership when this was first brought to their notice on December 12, the day Devyani Khobragade was arrested in New York on charges of visa fraud and misrepresentation of facts.

"It was one of the most stupid thing to do," a top American leadership is learnt to have said, referring to the damage the diplomat case has done to the India-US ties.

In fact a source pointed that the level of "furious reaction" in the top American leadership was similar to that of India.

"If the Indians were furious, so were we."


It is one of the reasons why, Kerry in the middle of his overseas trip, made it a point to reach out to External Affairs Minister Salman Khurshid and since he could not be available at that time, he spoke with National Security Advisor Shivshankar Menon.

During the conversation, Kerry is believed to have apologised for the incident, sources said.

But the public statement issued by the State Department noted that Kerry expressed his regret to Menon. However, the strong Indian reaction did not go down well in the US as well.

"There are stupid people on our side. There are stupid people on your side too," sources said.


"The overwhelming opinion was this should not have happened. The sense was that there was a sectorial bureaucracy, which pursued an issue and the people who had the big picture, either had taken the eyes off the ball or were in the middle of transition," said another source familiar with the conversation happening at the senior level of US government and among the lawmakers.

"For whatever reason, the big picture guys did not stop the sectorial bureaucracy at the time when people should have said, look where is this issue going," sources said, adding the sentence "that this should not have happened" is being said both at the Hill and the corridor of powers here.

Sources said the case was handled by those people who did not had the sense what would be the repercussions of such an action. And by the time it came to the notice of the top US leadership, it had entered the domain of the judiciary.

This coupled with a strong retaliatory action by India, sources said, tied down their hands.


One sentiment encountered at fairly senior level in Washington was a feeling that nobody needed this problem and that this was badly handed.

"Now that it has happened, we need to resolve this. The thought is there that we need to make sure that such things do not happen again," sources said.

There was a growing sense in the Obama Administration yesterday that they would like to put this episode behind them and move forward as quickly as possible.
