Folks, I have worked very closely with engineers from India for the past ten years. They are 100% for Modi and BJP.  They say, "It is time for the US to start treating India like an equal, not as a subordinate."

Modi will not forget how the politically correct, moralizing US government treated him in the past, but they sure have changed their tune!  Now, they will roll out the red carpet for him, give him a visa, and show him their fake

Modi will do business with the US, but never as a subordinate and not as a friend.  The relationship will be strictly business.  POINT: If US State Dept and corporate folks tell Modi that "the sky is blue, " he should walk outside and check it.

he is not only Hindu's prime minister...He is the prime minister of a country where we accept each other as our brothers and sisters..irrespective of the religion..we elected him. not only by the Hindus.

Corrections in this video-
1. Gujarat is a state in West India and not North
2. Piracy of Hollywood movies is not the pressing issue

How does it affect US-
1. US companies can invest more in India as FDI policies have been eased
2. Bureaucracy will also been reduced by removing unwanted laws.

Why is someone like this guy talking about India and Modi? He doesnt seem to know much at all.

2:18 piracy of 'Hollywood n Bollywood's movies' Really? u think that was an important issue in elections? n by the way don't compare Bollywood to 'Hollywood in India, cz compared to Bollywood, 'Hollywood has a very small presence in India, first of all, only a very small percentage of people watch 'Hollywood movies n secondly, most hollywood movies in India are distributed by Indian Production Companies...not by the original Hollywood production company...

One should understand that the Supreme Court of India, highest legal authority of the nation, absolved Mr. Modi of any guilt in the massacre that is being referred to here. If America continues to believe otherwise, it should understand that the implications are that US media and government agencies have little faith in the Indian legal system and are undermining our democratic process and procedures.

The other logical fallacy in this view, surprisingly by WSJ is that Hindu community as a whole backs Modi. Hindu community, unlike the Catholic or any other Christian communities is not an organized community. In fact, some of the major Hindu religious leaders have been vocal in their opposition of Modi during these elections. So, Hindu backing is a myth.

Finally, when you say that Muslim community blames Mr. Modi for the massacre in 2002, one should understand that the majority that was given to this party, which is spearheaded by Mr. Modi, would be impossible without the support of Muslim vote bank.

It is quite astonishing to see WSJ make these mistakes.
