US Commander:India poised for better role in Afghanistan.

[Developereo]

"The Indian government, ... with whom we have very strong relations, appears to be poised ultimately not just to have a substantial economic interest, perhaps even eclipsing the Chinese interest...

Looks like someone let the cat out of the bag about America's "mission" in Afghanistan.

Actually Karan jee I realize you are a bit slow and I hate to burst your bubble like this, but that mispelling in " JAY "as you call it may have been by design to rhyme with you know what, Capische MON AMI.

I wouldnt know.. Because in Indian education system, changing to spellings of a word to make it rhyme is not a common practice..

Unlike you I live in the USA for the last 35 years and know the US much better than you AMIGO. We Americans neither plan to stay in Afghanistan, nor are we coming back to rescue your rear end in Afghanistan. Why you ask my simpleton Friend so let me explain why ? This war has cost us a TRILLION USD and we are almost Bankrupt. You think we will come back to rescue your Sorry tail in Afghanistan ? Keep dreaming Mi Amigo.... Just enjoy the ROLL Taliban has so lovingly prepared for you my sweet friend.

Pay attention dude.. Where did I say America is gonna come back (As if they are going to leave ) ..
Any way look at the parallels..

1980's Pakistan and America as deeper than sea and taller than mountains friends. India has a USSR tilt. USSR loses out of Afghanistan and withdraws. In 2 decades, Russia is still friends with India, USA and Pakistan cant stand each other, and Pakistan which used to grow at twice the speed of India's growth, is growing at less than half of India's now..

Today, in my above para, replace USA with China and USSR with USA and repeat

Washington: India, which is one of the top donors for Afghanistan post 9/11, is poised to play a very important role as the international community prepares to withdraw troops from this war-torn country, a top American commander has told lawmakers.

Testifying before a Congressional Committee, General John Allen, Commander of US and NATO forces in Afghanistan told lawmakers on Tuesday that India is not only a major economic donor but also has offered to support the development of the Afghan National Security Forces (ANSF).

"The Indian government, ... with whom we have very strong relations, appears to be poised ultimately not just to have a substantial economic interest, perhaps even eclipsing the Chinese interest... but also has long-term ties, very healthy and friendly ties with Afghanistan and, in fact, is offering to support the development of the Afghan National Security Forces," Allen said in response to a question.

India poised for better role in Afghanistan: US Commander - World News - IBNLive

Yea rite as Americas proxy. Lol. The failure of empires happens when they think are omnipotent. America with more resources than India has failed in Afghanistan so I think this is the wishful thinking of Americans. When will Indians and Americans realise that neither of them have a border with Afghanistan.

1. Your presence in Afghanistan is almost 3 times greater than in the US of A. Now call them "diplomatic" or "Information tourist centers" or whatever you want. I will call it an "obsessive interest ".
2. Lets agree to differ as regards to what kind of support you provide. Readers can decide for themselves the desires of India having 1 "information center" per 5 Indians in Afghanistan..

As long as Afghans have no issue with it, We don't care. And moreover if India will do anything anti Pakistan (Which Pakistan paranoid about) Afghans will not entertain it.

I am 100% sure that Afghanistan will not want to be playground of two arch-rivals.

Afghans have no voice at the moment all they have is a puppet who says what Americans want lol

Always amusing to see Pakistanis getting excited about chaos on their western front!

Now thats how smart people learn from the past.

At topic - India has learnt from the past and does not want taliban back, hence we are fully committed to support the Afghan government. The universally recognised Afghan government is fully supportive of India's role too. We do not want more kandahar highjackings, 9/11s etc. I'm sure the Afghans do not want ot be shot in football stadiums and their cultural heritage destroyed by sub-human taliban. Surely Pakistanis do not want sub-human taliban to rule Afghanistan, I take it thats the case as most Pakistanis do not want Taliban to rule Pakistan. Surely Pakistanis can not be complete hypocrites to wish something so horrible on the muslim afghan brothers, particularly since they do not want it themselves?

Any Pakistanis who wish Taliban on Afghans deserve to live under Taliban too. Thats only fair. Infact the noble thing would be to create a successful example of benevolent taliban rule in pakistan first. Then the Afghanis will willingly join this grand experiment second only to the creation of pakistan.

Government of Afghanistan ? I think what you really mean is you support the Mayor of Kabul Hamid Karzai who has been propped up by the US led NATO forces. After the US departs, Mayor of kabul is going to make a B-line for the next flight out or else his Blank will be GRASS and yours as well, MI AMIGO. Good Luck MON AMI.

USA is not an immediate neighbor of Afghanistan. India is
.

Factually incorrect data.. Was ok while you were a normal member, but Think Tanks should not lie..

3. Im sure you will agree with me looking at the OP - we dont need to start discussing Balochistan and Karachi yaar - that would be off topic. Dude you even got so excited Kashmir came into it!!

Not at all.. No discussion needed on Balochistan and Karachi. I referred to them since you implied India using those consulates for providing material support to the insurgencies in those areas..

This is what you think. Even though America will not like unstable Afghanistan. And Indians are only involved in humanitarian work, nothing more. Stop creating evil out of nowhere. Indians are doing nothing anti Pakistan in Afghan.

Afghan is mineral rich country, if we don't reach there, Chinese and European will reach. We are looking business. Have you heard of our train link in Afghan?? We are making train link from Iran to Afghan to start mining. We along with Iran with generate revenue for Iran-Afghan-India.

America is not in our team. America and china is in pakistani team.

Indian govt's stand is that it has a border with Afghanistan which is under illegal occupation of Pakistan. Remember, Kashmir (both Indian and Pakistani parts of it) is a disputed area

Their position does not change the ground realities that our forefathers ensured there was no border between Afghanistan and Incredible. I think that's the problem with Indian position lol

Mate charity starts at home lol

Humanitarian work????????. Get a grip - you have all these information centers and consulates to offer "humanitarian services" in Afghanistan? Read the post by karan put up earlier (if its still their). There are ulterior motives that India has so much interest in Afghanistan. For goodness sake you would think yo had a border with them anf millions of Indian citizens their. At least have the balls to admit their real motives but don't attempt to blind us with your rebuttal of the real intent - rather wasted effort by you...

Your same forefathers also ensured that Pakistan borders India from both east and west. That changed.. Didnt it??.. This will too.. Wait and watch..

 

[lem34]

Breaking news Indians have realised they have no border with Iran or Afghanistan

Your same forefathers also ensured that Pakistan borders India from both east and west. That changed.. Didnt it??.. This will too.. Wait and watch..

Yea looking forward to India getting nuked if you try anything

What about Hindu terrorism India is the epicenter of Hindu terrorism. Sort your own problems first. You don't need to invite the Incredible Taliban they will take whatever action they think appropriate to ensure you have a happy stay in Afghanistan as they have done with Americans
