Mr. Modi may be big or small, but he definitely is bigger than your Imran Khan. Unlike IK who has to abide by the illegitimate power wielded by the Pak Establishment, Modi is controlling and is being controlled by the far superior Indian democratic process.
The flip-flop (which is not limited...
Unwise decision from India to agree to the talks since our stated policy is that talks and terror do not go together.
More silly was the 24 hour flip-flop. Shows total confusion. The person at the top appears like a novice.
India should know without any shred of doubt that the Pak...
By this statement you are implying that men control women, whether past, present or future. This kind of male-centric view and its perpetuation is what is opposed by modern thinking women.
I'm not comparing overall US intelligence apparatus with India's. We need to know if US satellites give far greater raw info than Indian satellites in the Indian subcontinent. Of course I do find it believable that US will have greater ability to game plan and predict Chinese actions than us...
So basically the confidence that Pakistani members show about effectively countering S400 holds as much water as indian members show about Su-30 MKI blasting Pakistani armed forces.
I also doubt that just because Pakistan and Russia have found some common ground it will translate to worthwhile...
Sir, your points about outwitting S400 and US opposition are well taken. But you are also implying that PAF has adequate countermeasures for S400. I can't see how it is so simple since the Chinese have paid quite a lot to procure it. Russian military technologies are still respected by the Chinese.
The Chinese have purchased S400 based on their potential threats like US and to some extent India.
So if S400 can make US feel uneasy then PAF will find it extremely difficult to overcome India's S400 threat.
How will PAF weigh the cost-benefit analysis?
Or are you referring to S350 only?
Thanks for the reply.
True, killing innocents is not justifiable. And i have said that from our side, at times targeting innocents is deliberate. The way a military operates in civilian areas is at times brutal; armies are not trained for this purpose. How believable are reports that PA/Rangers...
My friend who has connections with the IA says that in order to provide covering fire to terrorists/militants, PA/Rangers fire all over the localized area so that IA/BSF personnel are forced to go inside their bunkers. Then infiltration through fields etc. becomes easier. Secondly firing is...
It has never been my intention to flame-bait. Even if it was unintentional derailment, no member has responded to the alleged derailment - which makes me think that my questions were not perceived as derailment since there are far too many posters of all kinds who respond to flame-baits.
I do...
You are saying that the understanding was valid only till the skirmishes of Rann of Kutch and did not hold once Grandslam started? Was this explicitly mentioned or was it supposed to be understood by IAF? And was it overconfidence/laziness/lack of strategic understanding of the IAF that PAF...
Are there indications that IAF underestimates PAF?
@Joe Shearer has said many times that India assumed that PAF would not attack IAF bases due to an unwritten understanding between IAF and PAF. Why do you say 'weeping' when we did not expect you to attack like this? I think Joe also said that...
Perhaps the Myanmar operation was nothing more than a few KM ingress and the Indian SF did take down a few militant camps. And perhaps this was given a lot of unnecessary (not sure if unnecessary) media coverage by the then new BJP government.
One retired army officer told me that surgical...
