Some Reasons that Why CommonWealth Games will Not Fail

Yes u read it right..........India will Not let it happen...........We have been using tricks for a long time and this time it will not be the exception,The big question is Y?The answer is simple we have the experience of using SAM(the process of pacifying),DAAM(the process of giving money),DANDA(the principle of punishment) and finally BHEDA(the principle of dividing). Now Connect these things to the present scenario. This appeared to have happened on Friday with CommonWealth Games Federation (CGF) chief Michael Fennell visiting the Village and reporting that "considerable" improvements had been made. But in a warning that was also echoed by England chef de mission Craig Hunter, Fennell made it clear the organizers had to stay on their toes.The tide, choppy and lashing at India's self-esteem, appears to be changing in the last 12 hours. What's the reason? Two words: MONEY and POWER. The combination has led western governments to search for some way to send their teams to the crisis-ridden Games. Diplomats agree the consequences of walking away from Delhi, capital of a rising economic power, could have been grave. The Commonwealth countries have said 'yes' to the Games. Has India's cash and clout prompted the Western countries to change their minds? "Even the merest clean-up and reassurances from Delhi were enough for us to make a go of it," admitted a diplomat. Sports minister MS Gill has also called up his counterparts from England,Scotland, Australia, New Zealand and Canada, and they have given assurances that the teams will be participating in the Games.

The feeling that enlightened self-interest has been a key driver for countries like Australia, New Zealand, England and Canada was reinforced by their being bowled over suddenly by India's PR drive, led by Delhi CM Sheila Dikshit. The lady's "gracious presence" at the Games Village, supervising the clean-up operation, was mentioned by virtually everyone as something that has infused them with loads of confidence. This despite the fact that the first few delegations will have to check into hotels instead of the Village which will become habitable only on Monday.

England's Craig Hunter added a caveat to his optimism: "Our next wave of athletes arrives Sunday and a lot still needs to happen before then. More and swift action is required".Newzeland Olympic Committie president Mike Stanley said there has been significant progress in the last 24 hours but added that his team would continue to review hygiene and security issues on a daily basis. "We remain hopeful that things can be turned round," he said.

The English delegation, comprising hockey and lawn ball players and officials, stayed in three different hotels in the city. "We are heading for the hotels. We will leave for the Games Village on Monday," said a delegate at the airport. A senior OC official told TOI the delegation would have to foot their hotel bills.

Late on Friday, the England men's hockey team visited the Village and the team captain Barry Middleton told the BBC they were reasonably satisfied. "It's nice to see it for ourselves. The flats are spacious, which is good for a major Games, but there are bits and pieces to be done to bring them up to standard. A couple of days will make a difference." In other words, the efficient jhadu-pochha ops have to continue.

A western diplomat said the Games are ultimately a bump on the road of India's progress and long-term trends indicated it was best to stay engaged and friendly with Delhi. Add up the numbers and Friday's talk of a "triumphant spirit of sport" makes sense.

Take the example of Canada. Canadian direct investment in India is roughly 600 million Canadian dollars, while Indian direct investment in Canada is five times as much. In 2009, Canada ranked India as its 10th most important destination for the export of vegetables, fertilizers and machinery. Its officials agree their country didn't come out of the global recession well and are scouting for long-term access in India to keep the cash coming in.

India is currently Australia's third-largest export market. In 2009, Australia's trade surplus with India was a staggering $15.5 billion. Till the student row broke out, Indians were contributing roughly $1bn to Australia's third biggest export sector, education. Now, sources say Australia is out of pocket by at least $50 million because Indian student enrolment has dropped by half.

For the English too, cash counts, but more so the nominal clout they get by keeping the 54-member Commonwealth alive and kicking. This is seen to be the main reason England on Thursday night almost single-handedly helped lift the pall by announcing it would be sending a full team.London could not talk to Scottish, Welsh and Northern Ireland officials about sending their teams to Delhi because sport is a devolved issue in the UK but everyone knew that once England agreed the rest would get onboard too.

Keep ur Vigilant eyes open and compare the things Globally in favour of India that is needed by all of us "Must not play the Blame game" as it is played by the top Indian Politicians(Including Mr Prime Minister:Was he sleeping or out of Delhi as he made Mr.Suresh Kalmadi the Escape Goat?)

Iranian President says US behind 9/11

Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad announced from the United Nations in New York Thursday that Iran will host an international conference on terrorism in the coming year that among other things will discuss who really carried out the 9/11 attacks.

Mr. Ahmadinejad, who delved into the 9/11 tragedy in the context of a speech focused on what he called the “crisis” facing capitalism and the Western-dominated world order, said history will record that a failing world dominator used the attacks as a pretext for occupying two countries, Afghanistan and Iraq. Citing a list of conspiracy theories over who destroyed the twin towers, he said that, whoever the culprits, the United States proceeded to use the events to try to prolong a dying world order of domination.

Addressing the annual opening of the UN General Assembly, just miles from the site of the deadliest of the 9/11 attacks, the Iranian leader said the US responded to the attacks by firing up a “propaganda machine” to convince the world that war was the necessary response.

“We were all saddened for the 3,000 lives lost on 9/11,” he said, but he added that “since then hundreds of thousands of people have been killed in Afghanistan and Iraq.”

The walkout

The US delegation and others walked out of Ahmadinejad's speech after he began enumerating his theories as to who could have been behind the 9/11 attacks, the second of which was that "some segments within the US government orchestrated the attack to reverse the declining American economy and its grips on the Middle East in order also to save the Zionist regime." The US holds Al Qaeda responsible for the attacks.

Ahmadinejad said the international conference he proposed would “study terrorism and the means to confront it.”

The controversial leader, who had to pass by chanting protesters railing against his rule on his way into the UN headquarters, was –despite his 9/11 tangent – less fiery than in past weeks, though in some ways no more modest. He unilaterally assigned the General Assembly the task of designing within one year a new UN governing structure free of the control of a few powerful countries sitting on the Security Council – a body he called one of the world’s least democratic and just.

Ahmadinejad did not directly respond to the invitation Western powers have extended to Iran to return to Negotiations over its nuclear program – other than to repeat that Iran is always open to dialogue that is based on mutual respect and equal rights. But he did speak at length on the global nuclear issue, criticizing nuclear arms as a tool of domination for the few who possess them, but extolling nuclear power as a clean and inexpensive energy source for all.

'Nuclear energy for all'

Declaring another goal for the coming year, he said 2011 should be proclaimed “a year of nuclear disarmament” with the motto: “Nuclear energy for all, nuclear weapons for none.”

Ahmadinejad’s address followed by a few hours President Obama’s declaration to the same international gathering that Iran is the only signatory to the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty unable to demonstrate to UN nuclear energy officials that its nuclear program is solely peaceful in nature. As if in response, the Iranian leader acknowledged Iran’s lack of full cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency, but said Iran is exercising its international rights.

“Yes it’s true, we have never submitted to the IAEA’s illegally imposed pressures,” he said, “and we never will.” As for the fourth round of economic sanctions approved earlier this year, he said they are merely “destroying the remaining credibility of the Security Council.”

Despite such worldly issues, much of Ajmadinejad’s speech focused on theological themes and a world where he said man’s spiritual nature is obscured by materialistic pursuits.

As he has often in the past, he railed against a Western society that destroys “the purity and exquisiteness” of women. And he referred to the recent controversy over a proposed burning of Quran by a Florida minister, calling such acts evil but then concluding that “the truth cannot be burned.”

He then held aloft both the Quran and the Bible, and declared, “We pay respect to both books.”
