India and the US may ink the landmark nuclear deal as early as Friday after President George W. Bush signs into law the legislation on the initiative.
The signing of the HR7081, the approval legislation for the US-India civilian nuclear agreement, into law by Bush, on Wednesday night will be followed by formal inking of the accord by the two countries, which will be done by Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice and Minister for External Affairs Pranab Mukherjee.
According to the sources, a formal announcement of when Mukherjee and Rice will sign the agreement has not been made but the event could come as early as Friday.
Bush, who had entered into the historic accord with Prime Minister Manmohan Singh three years ago, will sign the legislation on the nuclear deal into law at 2:25 pm local time (2355 hrs IST tonight) at the ornate East Room of White House.

well, that's a step in the right direction (toward Iran). Actually it allows us to oversee what they are doing via inspections, but doesn't include their military assets.
