The recent fuss by the Americans about Iran’s nuclear programme and the ongoing war of words between the two countries is not a good thing as far as India is concerned. It could lead to grave consequences, and, therefore, it is a good idea to do something proactive to avoid further escalation.
In fact, what India should look at is the big picture. Based on its relatively good relationships with both countries, it could attempt to broker a deal which will, in effect, bring Iran back out of isolation – partly self-imposed and partly forced by the US because of Israeli paranoia – that is has faced for some years.
The media shrieking about Iran in the US has reached fever proportions, and there are suggestions of some major Armageddon coming up. This is laughable because of several reasons. One, whatever the West does (including targeted assassinations), it is quite likely that Iran will develop whatever nuclear technology it wants.
