#1 They say when a butterfly flutters its wings in Africa... it might affect corn prices in Iowa.

#2 The Indian press always amuses me. Itâs always all about India.

And it's always about how we're selfish and self-centered in not explicitly catering to India's best interests. Like I said, they're not quite our allies (let alone friends) and not quite our enemies. In short, they're a lot like the French, except they have, in addition, a complex about whites.

#3 US likely to push for Indian troops

I suspect a lot of this is wishful thinking. It's the bazaar mentality - they're hoping we'll give 'em some more goodies in exchange for those precious Indian troops. It's likely that we'll get an Iraqi militia up and going in record time, and India will end up looking like Turkey - yet another so-called ally that did not live up to its obligations. These guys really have an inflated idea of their own importance, considering their incompetence. Think Chechnya is a quagmire? Take a look at Kashmir. These losers are pathetic.
