None would have been surprised at the news of Uncle sam watching the whole world through the lens of suspicion. But what’s alarming is the nature and depth of spying, been done through fax machines, telecom gears, communication cable – everything in an embassy except toilet paper! With traditional US allies and partners in NASA, the European countries, spearheading a versatile attack on US PRISM, US has got a strong ally – Mera Bharat Mahan. It seems John Kerry, after knowing that they illegally tapped Indian embassies, was bit hesitant to claim that these are just “cyber scrutiny” and not “snooping”, but our Khurshid mia had no hesitation in parroting the same message. Looks like UPA ministers undergo “spine bending” as part of their induction process. The danger is not just in approving the spying activity which is naked violation of Vienna convention, but a green signal for future spying too. Well, the simple question is if India does similar cyber scrutiny on US citizens, would it be acceptable? Or “Yes we scan” is an exclusive Obama right? # Tail piece: Congress ministers are smarter than what we think. They know that our entire policies are formed exactly as per instructions of US bosses and there is nothing one can find by spying!
