India, U.S. sign nuclear energy agreement - news agency

India, U.S. sign nuclear energy agreement
10:15 31/07/2010

India and the United States have signed in Washington an agreement on using U.S. nuclear fuel rods for nuclear energy plants in India, Indo-Asian News Service reported on Saturday.

New Delhi and Washington signed an agreement in 2008 on cooperation in nuclear energy, in particular the construction of U.S.-built nuclear plants in India. However, the agreement was hampered by clauses regarding India's use of nuclear fuel rods because of the lack of laws in the country on nuclear energy.

Washington has been wary of the possibility of India using foreign companies to service and regulate safety at the nuclear sites.

Until 2008, India was under international limitations on buying fuel, reactors and other equipment used for nuclear energy. After the limitations were lifted, India decided to build four new nuclear plants using U.S., Russian and French technology and equipment.

India has signed similar agreements with Russia and France.

    I am India's expert in strategic defence and the father of India's strategic program, including the Integrated Guided Missiles Development Program. I have shown in my blog titled 'Nuclear Supremacy For India Over U.S.', which can be found by a Google search with the title, that all terrorism and insurgencies in the Indian subcontinent and in much of the rest of the world is sponsored by the C.I.A. Both Pakistan's ISI and India's RAW (Research and Analysis Wing) function as branches of the C.I.A. and participate in terrorism and insurgencies throughout the Subcontinent, under direction of the C.I.A. Yes, the ISI secretly supports the Taliban but it does so under direction from the C.I.A. whose modus operandi is support for ALL sides of a conflict to control the course of the conflict in service of its own goals. The goal of the U.S. invasion and occupation of Afghanistan and partial occupation of Pakistan is eventual occupation and overt colonial rule over the Subcontinent as a whole. This will not be permitted and all those participating in this enterprise, including the U.K., will be duly punished; see my blog. The document leak currently in the news has been made in preparation for abandonment of this goal and withdrawal from Afghanistan because of steps I have already taken for the nuclear destruction of New Delhi and then the coast-to-coast destruction of the United States by India with 5,000 thermonuclear warheads and extermination of its population; see my blog.
