| US supports Indias claim for permanent UN membership -- Obama |
| 2010-11-09 |
| (KUNA) -- US supports Indias claim for a permanent membership in the United Nations, aka the Oyster Bay Chowder and Marching Society Security Council (UNSC), said American President Barack Hussein Obama on Monday while addressing a joint session of Indian Parliament in New Delhi. Obama is the second US President to address the joint session of the Indian Parliament after Bill Clinton, who did the same in 2000. Acknowledging India as an already emerging world power, he said: "I look forward to a reformed United Nations that includes India as a permanent member. " He said India is indispensable for American vision of a peaceful world order while continuing with its fight against global terrorism, and without any human rights ... which are not the same thing as individual rights, mind you... violations. "Many Indians died in 9/11 air attack in the US and similarly many Americans died in the 26/11 terror attack in Indias Mumbai two years ago. This is what binds us together in realizing our common agenda of fight against terror," said Obama while condemning all forms of terrorism. India is the worlds largest democracy which has grown in the 60 years after Independence and developed the worlds biggest middle-class, he said and added: "India is an ancient civilization which has shaped the world for centuries. Your greatest resource is your people. You have set an example of growth all these years. Instead of slipping into starvation, you started Green Revolution to feed your huge population. Instead of depending on imports, you invested in science and technology and became the engine of growth." The American President also laid stressed on Indo-US cooperation in the fields of civil-nuclear energy, agriculture, education, health, space technology, food-security, and information technology. Committing full support to Indias growth and its citizens, the visiting President said: "We will be right there with you, shoulder to shoulder. We believe in your promises. We share common aspirations." |

| #4 Obama is trying to wrestle the Indian arms market away from the Euros and Ruskies. On top of that he's hoping to charm the Parliment into relaxing their industrial liability laws. How's that Nobel Peace Prize working for ya now? |
