US seeks using India to isolate Iran, build China cold war -Arundhati

War and arms deals are US techniques to bail itself
out of tight economic situation:
IRAN: Washington seeks to isolate Iran and build a cold war with
China through its ‘theatrical drama’ ties with New Delhi, a top Indian
author says. The main concern of the US is to isolate and attack Iran
for its nuclear energy program, The Hindu quoted Arundhati Roy as saying
on Friday.
In the same way, China has become the target of the US as a result of
the escalation of the conflict on account of capitalism, the Booker
Prize winning novelist added. The US, Israel and some of their allies
have accused Tehran of pursuing military objectives in its nuclear
energy program. The US and the EU have used this pretext to impose
sanctions against Tehran, while Tel Aviv has issued threats of a
military strike against Iran’s nuclear facilities. Washington has
repeatedly threatened the Islamic Republic with “all options” on the
table.
Iran has refuted the allegations, arguing that as a signatory to the
nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty and a member of the International
Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), Tehran is entitled to peaceful use of
nuclear technology.
The IAEA has conducted numerous inspections of Iran's nuclear
facilities, but has never found any evidence indicating that Tehran's
nuclear energy program has been diverted towards nuclear weapons
production.
War and arms deals are the two US techniques to bail itself out of a
tight economic situation, Roy concluded.
