Bush was right Hersh and his cronies are liars

It is YOU who is the liar because Hersh only reported that the US and Israel has contingency plans to neutralize Pakistan's nuclear capability. Hersh never included India in that alliance.

Here is what was quoted regarding the above with the relevant link:

"During a meeting in New York with Pakistan's leader, Gen. Pervez Musharraf, Bush bluntly denounced an article by investigative reporter Seymour M. Hersh in the New Yorker magazine. The article, published in December, reported that the Pentagon had contingency plans to work with an Israeli special operations unit to seize Pakistan's nuclear weapons if the country became unstable. "Seymour Hersh is a liar," Bush is quoted as telling Musharraf."

A self-professed expert in geopolitics like you, should know that major policy shifts, when there is a change in government, usually takes time. This is especially the case in democracies. Since your life experience has been with an undemocratic Pakistan it is understandable that you would not readily comprehend this.

The decision of developing a “triad” or a “core alliance” of India, Israel and the United States for evolving a joint strategy to fight international terrorism is in doldrums

For you to come to the conclusion that "India, Israel and the United States for evolving a joint strategy to fight international terrorism is in doldrums" less than a week after the elections shows astonishing naivete.
