I am very happy to see such reactions from sober well informed Pakistanis and hope that they can transfer this message to the misguided zealots and self-appointed defenders of Islam. India was very close to disintegration on the basis of religion. There are problems in Naxal areas, Kashmir...

All lies ! Read the first post again - Mig 21 was shot down by a MISSILE - no guns, no cannons etc. Indian Mig21s had very inferior missile capability in 1971 while the PAF used Sidewinders on F-86s. Please Check facts before Comments.

In addition to shore defence these missiles could be useful for small FACs, missile boats etc. which normally don't have any SAM capability.

@Asim - I think 'quality' of the militants can be gauged in their performance in firefights with the security forces. Things like fire discipline, tactics, coordination etc. can reveal if the militants are well trained or not.

@AM - little territory gained across the IB and cease fire line eh ? What about the Haji Pir Pass and the heights around Kargil ? We took those both from you. Not to mention all the area till the canal protecting Lahore was with India.

@AM - who was getting spanked in Kashmir ? Pakistan had lost the strategic Haji Pir Pass as well as the heights around Kargil in 65. To relieve pressure on your infiltrators you seemed to have launched an attack on Chhamb across the IB. It was only then that the Indians retaliated and attacked...

What do you mean by "Orange media" Jana.. it's the first time I've heard such a term.

@Jana - no one in India is happy about terrorist attacks in Pakistan. I personally hated the attack on Pak army personnel in a mosque in Rawalpindi. I hate it when Army personnel from any country are killed in a terror attack and posted by condolences on that thread. Soldiers everywhere are...

@taimikhan - even I don't relish replying to your flights of fancy. I never said Pak is directly involved. Only that they are a suspect. Anyways I think we have drawn this game on long enough. All I wanted was Pak posters to feel sorry for the poor doctors and teachers killed during these...

@taimikhan - you say that India created LTTE .. that's not true. There was a Tamil seperatist movement in Sri Lanka. India did not clamp down on Tamil seperatists in Tamil Nadu initially. At no time did the Indian government give arms and training to the LTTE. Show me proof of Indian government...

@Jana.. excellent ! I think I'm wasting my time here too.. Pakistanis are gleeful at what happened. You forget Taliban killed the very same doctors who cure 100s of Pak children each year. Regarding the IA - they can very well take retribution if they come to know Pak is involved .. not the...

will you stop the stream of posts that deal with India's internal problems. This forum is about Pakistan and Pakistan's defence.

such an old story ! The problem has been solved right now. By the way tribal rivalry was the reason the violence took place. One tribe just happened to be Christian.

Prime Minister Manmohan Singh said the death of medical personnel in the Kabul blast defined the risks Indian medical teams have to face while serving in Afghanistan. "The medical fraternity in our country has been serving our people under very difficult conditions with great distinction,"...

@Jana - that's probably because the budget is making front page news right now. And you destroy your credibility by calling tabla players, doctors, teachers etc as agents. Shame on you! In fact many Indian defence analysts and Army people are taking this attack very seriously. Pakistan should...

While Pakistan continues to lecture the world about Good Taliban and Bad Taliban - what is your view on what these attackers and their backers are ? Good Taliban or Bad Taliban ?

hmm.. gets a lot more to "rattle" India than tough talks. Pakistan feels today that it has the upper hand in these talks. It feels it "coerced" India into these talks. I think Pakistan needs to go beyond point scoring talk of water hegemony etc. Pakistan is acting like an enemy of India. If it...

@taimikhan - Afghan Taliban is behind this attack. They have claimed responsibility. This is the same Afghan Taliban which was created by Pakistan and continues to be an ally of Pakistani interests in Afghanistan. It is not me who is saying Indians were targeted. It is the Afghan President and...

If you look at the plans for the Indian Navy. 1. 1 air carrier from Russia. at least 1 under construction in Kochi. 2. Shivalik class frigates about to be commissioned. 3 ships 3. Kolkata class destroyers X 3 - 1st to be commisioned in 2012. 4. Talwar class frigates - 3 more from...

I think the Taliban have chosen a soft target after their failed attack against government buildings and the Indian embassy last year. These high profile targets have been fortified and there is increased security presence. India has put concrete blast walls around the embassy and extra ITBP...
