Originally posted by Officer of Engineers View PostYeah, I'm not diplomatic corps either.
You're putting traits into dogs that don't exist. That's why your analogy is falling apart. If you want to discuss why the US is not giving India her perceived dues, then we can discuss that but once you start talking about dogs and I try to point out dog behaviour that is within context of this discussion, you assign traits that don't exist and we can't take the analogy into a deserved discussion.

Honestly? Bargin basement prices. Tianamen Square collapsed the Chinese economy. It also is the biggest reason why the Chinese are so economically powerful today. They cut their prices down to barebone survival. Anyway to make a buck, they did it. At the cost to their enviornment and health. What India is offering today is fair trade. What China offerred was a fire sale.Chimo

But, things are changing in India under Modi. Not a life altering one, slowly but steadily AND friendly to Indians and not at the cost of their health or social life and be democratic.

Originally posted by Officer of Engineers View PostYeah, how is that going? Even Canada withdrew from Kyoto.
This is the thing I don't understand. After all that has been shown. After all that we have wrote. Why do you insist in believing that the Americans do not insist in looking out for Americans no matter what? Contradiction? Why not?
eperate.
You were asking about the Chinese model and why it worked. I answered it. The Chinese model would not work for India. Indians were not as brainwashed nor as cowed as the Chinese were. Only a cowed populace could have worked as hard as they did after Tianamen.

Originally posted by commander View PostOh kind of hand an idea on the American standards from the beginning, just didn't think they would go as far as to arresting a diplomat.
Originally posted by commander View PostOwh we will devise our model, just keeping the diplomatic and business ties is what will we try to experiment and see how it works.We don't have to make our people slavesss in their own country through debts or through authority.Chimo

Commander;
There are some fair points you made about the US attorney's go after high profile targets to attain easy fame, but in this case PB was already in the highest position he could be in state level. Was he trying to contest to be the Governor of the state or what ?
Top Hatter spoke to this a little bit but I want to clear up something.
A US District Attorney is a Federal, not state official. He is a memeber fo the US Department of Justice and represents the US Government in cases before the US District and Circuit Courts. It is a federally apponted postion, not an elected position, confirmed by the Senate. Now some US District Attorneys do often times go on to state level elected offices. Several coem to mind...Chris Christie and GOV Martinez of NM.
But a more common government career path for a US Attorney is a Federal judgeship.
Either way he was acting as a Federal and not a state authority in the matter.“Loyalty to country ALWAYS. Loyalty to government, when it deserves it.”

There is a case to be made about China. China 3000 years ago was as biologically as rich as the Amazons. That's gone and it was all man caused.
Again, according to accepted international Vienna Conventions, DK was not a diplomat. She was not presented to the US as one. She was presented to the US as a Consular, not a Diplomat. And in case you did not know, she is not a diplomat just because India says she is. The host country, ie the US, must accept and acknowledge her as a diplomat. That is how things work.
Let me put it in a way you understand. Go up to your boss and demand a $200K US salary just because you will become this fantastic software engineer.Last edited by commander; 31 Oct 14,, 15:00.

I'm confused, but are you trying to say that the U.S. (Obama and his state department etc) preach to the rest of the world to be more 'responsible' when it comes to the climatic impact or their respective countries, yet at home (in the U.S.) he is advocating policies to loosen the 'responsible' climatic impact of the U.S. and to be less responsible as opposed to being more restrictive?
