The US Senate has also blocked the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty (CTBT), he noted, adding that the atomic powers had also reserved for themselves the "privilege" to further develop their weapons by means of computer simulation. It is my understanding that Indian nuclear scientists have the material and know how for computer simulation. German Foreign Minister Klaus Kinkel.Although Kinkel has been strongly critical of India and Pakistan, he has laid the blame for the series of test squarely on New Delhi for starting an arms race. There has been widespread criticism of Kinkel among intellectual circles in Germany which point out that while he was critical of India, he was keeping "one eye closed" to the China-Pakistan nuclear nexus and the test-firing of the Ghauri missile by Pakistan. Sounds very familiar. Some of the people (who matter and foreign policy makers) outside India don't really care if the pakis and Indians blow each other up with nuclear weapons. The whole subcontinent can disappear into Himalayas . There is scientific evidence that Himalayas were and are being created because of the thrust of the South Asian land mass under Himalayas. In New York Times, a few years ago, a reader very earnestly wanted to know about the time frame when India will disappear under the Himalayas. Such is their interest in India. That being said, their unspoken but private opinion is that, if the South Asia is not useful for commercial profits, at least the South Asians should not pollute the earth and their environment with the wind-blown radiation dust. Their benign pronouncements on CTBT and NPT are mainly selfish. The involved Govts, if they were interested in South Asians, should have offered a nuclear umbrella, before things turned out this way and the genie is out of the bottle. JPR
