    27 Feb 19: PAF shot down two Indian aircrafts inside Pakistani airspace: DG ISPR

    Managed to source an old HUMINT report from Cuba. It seems that JEM did have a training camp in Bakalot. Attaching the relevant wikileaks file. Not sure how or in what point this info is applicable though.

    Mystery as ‘GHOST ISLAND’ appears in frozen lake without warning

    No, this has been debunked since a long time now. If you are interested in the Fata Morgana effect I was talking about, here is something that might help more. https://www.vk2krr.com/Andrew%20t%20Young%20Fata%20Morgana%20article%202017.pdf

    Attempted IAF incursion - A Failed operation

    Then I would say that you are doubling down on a bad analogy. Because in that case, there is simply nothing you can do to the thief.

    Attempted IAF incursion - A Failed operation

    It is a bad analogy though, isn't it? Retaliation would mean that instead of going to the authorities and describing what the thief looked like and what he did, you went to the thiefs' house and you also ran from front door to exit. What would this achieve in your situation?

    Attempted IAF incursion - A Failed operation

    This is actually happening almost daily here in Greece, but it's another story all-together. What I am trying to say is that this is probably a publicity stunt, made as a reaction to the Pulwama attack. The "argument" from the Indian side is that a terrorist camp was targeted and destroyed, not...

    Attempted IAF incursion - A Failed operation

    Question. Even if the rest of the article cited legitimate sources, in what possible way could said sources verify with any degree of legitimacy that a certain individual (Yousuf Azhar) died in the attack? I'm sorry, but this reads as a pre-constructed article.

    Attempted IAF incursion - A Failed operation

    If this is indeed a publicity stunt, why should Pakistan retaliate? It would only make things worse.

    27 Feb 19: PAF shot down two Indian aircrafts inside Pakistani airspace: DG ISPR

    That is not how this works. That is not how anything works really.

    The title comes verbatim from the article and literally says that a minister proclaimed this.

    So what changed about India in 5 years of Modi?

    I think that this may provide an extra hint. I'm certainly not arguing against the possible effect of bad domestic policy decisions (I actually have no knowledge about the particulars in India). It needs to be said though that stage 1 was completely unsustainable (in short term context)...

    What can India expect in return for Kashmir?

    Wouldn't this be completely unacceptable to India though? You are talking about them giving over 80% of the lands they already have, including Hindu majority parts. I'm guessing that if negotiations are already happening, there is no way on earth that this would be a basis for discussion.

    Looking for more : Bangladesh Liberation War

    @Species Many thanks friend for the comprehensive summary. I will be eagerly awaiting your next post. Wouldn't that contribute to alienating the residents of East Pakistan to the point where a civil war was inevitable? I was under the original impression that the leadership in West Pakistan...

    The Chinese Military Speaks to Itself, Revealing Doubts

    The conclusion in the article (you can find it in full here), is that the demonization some parts of the political right - primarily in the US - attribute and ascribe to China's military modernization is both biased and premature. Quoting :. The same argument can be found here, in this -...
