India conducted five underground nuclear tests last week and has vowed to conduct more, prompting strong condemnation and economic sanctions from the U.S. What do you think?

  • Indians testing nuclear bombs? They can't even get my tandoori right.

  • India should heed America's call to stop nuclear testing. After all, we obliged when India asked us to stop in the '40s, '50s, '60s, '70s and '80s.

    Systems Analyst
    Patricia Wilson

  • I'm just glad American Indians don't have the bomb. Talk about heap big payback for Paleface.

  • I just hope the Indians love their children, too.
