    Self-Centred India

    From what I heard, the floods were more due to excess rains than any excess release of water. And even if there was excess water coming down from the glaciers, what is India supposed to with it? Divert it onto its own territory? Then you guys will be crying hoarse over India blocking your water...

    'India only gives moral support to Balochistan'

    Ahh..then you do believe that India is not materially supporting any Baloch rebels through its consulates in Afghanistan. I believe so too. But then again moral support doesn't require any consulate or base.

    'India only gives moral support to Balochistan'

    I agree. The situation in Balochistan is miles away from what East Pakistan was in the 60's. But there is discontent and strife and that provides ripe grounds for 'moral support'. After all Punjab in the 80's wasnt very different from where Balochistan is now, but Pak used incidents brilliantly...

    'India only gives moral support to Balochistan'

    I can see the difference. But the fact is that creating trouble in a bilaterally disputed region and creating trouble in a non-disputed region is just the same trouble for the country in question. When you choose to support violence in a region not under your control, the other party would do...

    'India only gives moral support to Balochistan'

    You would be naive to think that Pak's fight is confined to Kashmr. The fight has been beyond Kashmir for a long time now. From the terrorist attacks to harboring criminals like Dawood Ibrahim, GoP crossed that line long back.

    'India only gives moral support to Balochistan'

    Absolutely welcome. Just dont cry about Balochistan later. And you have tried your version of moral support in Kashmir and we have tried ours in East Pakistan. Going by our records, we are more successful at it. What does that tell you about an independent Balochistan and its prospects?

    Sikh To Death, a War nerd's tribute to Sikh warriors

    Linguistics was the prime determinant of the formation of states in poet-Independent India. State of Bombay was divided into Gujarat and Bombay merged with Maharashtra. And its fallacious to assume that only Sikhs wanted the Punjabi Suba. The movement was given a communal color by vested...

    Sikh To Death, a War nerd's tribute to Sikh warriors

    As I said, its not justified. Agree with you. Firing on a few people and using tanks and attack helicopters are two very different things. Honestly, I dont see GoI ever mounting an armed assault on a Hindu shrine, whatever may be the provocation. The Sikh scriptures and history supports...

    Sikh To Death, a War nerd's tribute to Sikh warriors

    May be there is no such thing as the martial races, but there are certainly groups/communities more predisposed towards warfare and violence then others. Its in the blood. Its in the genes. I had a conversation with my friend's dad who retired as an ex-artillery major from the IA. He told me...

    Sikh To Death, a War nerd's tribute to Sikh warriors

    The Punjabi Suba demand dragged on for 20 years after independence. Do you know of any other community in India that was at the frontline of the freedom struggle and had to wait for 20 years to get their own state? And further there was a determined campaign by newspapers like those of Lala...

    Sikh To Death, a War nerd's tribute to Sikh warriors

    I do not defend the Sikh renegades holed up inside the Golden Temple. And Bhindrawale's temporal residence in the Akal Takht is indefensible although he wasn't staying in the same room as the Granth Sahib. Why I consider IG evil and tyrannical is due to her acts as a manipulator and a...

    Sikh To Death, a War nerd's tribute to Sikh warriors

    That unarmed woman was surely responsible for a lot more deaths than an armed soldier. Just because you dont carry arms doesnt mean you cant kill. This is not a medieval knight's tale. Yes, I will call them brave. Since it takes courage to do what you plan to do knowing fully well the...

    Sikh To Death, a War nerd's tribute to Sikh warriors

    Sides choose their methods of warfare. Sikh separatist werent expected to walk up to 10 Janpath and challenge IG in broad daylight. A weaker opponent will use whatever means necessary to kill its adversary. I must add, I am not trying to defend IG's killers. Just trying to present a different...
