NEW DELHI - United States politician Sarah Palin stressed the importance of America's ties with India, saying they were based on the shared values of freedom9 Did she forget about Kashmir, where hundreds and thousands have been slaughtered by Indian army, did she forget about Gujrat) and free-market capitalism, while sounding a warning note on China's rise during a speech yesterday in New Delhi.
The visit to India is a rare foreign venture for the ex-Alaska governor and reality TV star, who was John McCain's running mate in his failed 2008 campaign for President.
The trip, which also includes a stop in Israel, is raising speculation that Palin wants to burnish her foreign policy credentials before a possible 2012 presidential run.
Palin told a well-heeled audience of Indian business leaders, professionals and socialites that US-Indian relations were "key to the future of our world ... we're going to need each other, especially as these other regions rise", she said, in an apparent reference to China, during a Q&A that followed a keynote speech titled "My Vision of America."
"Free people that make up a free country don't wage war on another free country," (Think she's on weed) she said.
"I want peace on earth." [hilar][hilar] (US is waging war against every free country funny when they talk about peace)
She questioned the Chinese military's ascent, saying the communist country's stockpiling of ballistic missiles, submarines and "new-age, ultramodern aircraft" seemed unjustified when it did not face an outside threat.
"What's with the military buildup?" she said. "China's military growth can't just be for defensive purposes." (US IS SO SCARED OF CHINA IT'S TRYING TO PLAY SAME CARD AS PAKISTAN, THEY WILL SELL BILLIONS OF WEAPONS TO INDIA SO INDIA CAN BE SCREWED BY CHINA, THEY KNOW NO WAY INDIA IS CHINA'S MATCH)
Reporters who had been assured access were barred at the last minute. But the speech was shown on Indian television and in a live webcast.
Palin was coy about whether she planned to run for the White House, but at times sounded like she was campaigning. She took a swipe at President Barack Obama and what she described as his "dithering" response to the political upheaval in the Middle East.
