10 captives, Over 20 soldiers, including Commanding Officer killed at Galwan border clash with China

Operationally this explanation should be sufficient for us all, but it would still be interesting to get your view of the strategic and geopolitical angle of this flashpoint and escalation.

Quite simply it is what I have said before. I repeat: this is a drama made up by China to relieve the regime of tension created by a number of internal dissensions, due to the lack of transparency about the management of the virus cases within China, due to increasing international criticism over China's role in the pandemic going on, due to tensions over the increasing intransigence of Taiwan, due to tensions about their failure to dominate the US in the South China Sea, and due to Indian moves to link up with other nations critical of China, such as Australia, to give Taiwan more prominence than before the 50s, and to continue to refuse to collaborate with China on its economic expansion measures, not to mention openly seeking to be an alternative to China for nations wishful of outsourcing their production.

This was bound to happen, either with us or elsewhere. The Chinese leadership is seeking a distraction, and it has created one.

Unfortunately, since we ourselves have an incompetent leadership, that thinks at abysmally limited levels of intelligence, the coming together of pinpricks by the Pakistan Army on the LOC, the sudden creation of a border issue where none existed with Nepal, and the expansion of military strength in Ladakh were not seen as a concerted move to create pressure on India.

Since 1967, there has been no gunfire on the boundaries between Chinese and Indian troops. It is unlikely, improbable that there will be any now. However, there will be provocation, there will be propaganda, and there will be loud criticism from Chinese allies put up to be provocative as well.

I expect that tension will increase until China obtains some kind of concession, but tension will increase only up to a point. If there is simply nothing to be gained, and China senses it, there will be a settlement, and allied elements will be informed that the settlement is entirely in China's favour, just as they were told in the case of Doklam, and presumably with the same results as in that case: these allies will overlook the original point of contention, and agree whole-heartedly with the Chinese explanation that a settlement is a brilliantly disguised Chinese victory.

There is a very small chance that actual fighting will break out. If it does, then we have to see what we have to see. Sabre-rattling does not lead to military advantage; for that matter, neither does the apish behaviour demonstrated on this forum by some members.

I hope that this adequately covers conveys my understanding of the situation.
 
China is not India... They (journalists) knows their limits... It is not good to disappear along with your family...




No, both sides are testing the waters and buying the time for mobilization... this is just a start... Mr. Premier is in direct control and demanding something which will non reversible... related to 5th august 2019...

It's highly professional of the Chinese media to even show what the other side is thinking. But Chinese don't know that their retweets of Indian sources will be taken as confirmations.
So far, a very credible person diss Hu for spewing b.s.
 
While the world press is going crazy and clearly saying Indians suffered devastating losses , Indian side is trying to hold on to some fake tweet accounts to prove otherwise ....

apparantly the viciousness of the attack can be judged by the fact that three dead soldiers were beaten to death.
so imagine if Chinese start firing what would happen then ?

crazy :

“Both sides insist no bullet has been fired in four decades, and the Indian army insisted again on Tuesday that "no shots were fired". Local media outlets reported that the Indian soldiers were "beaten to death" but there was no confirmation from the military.”

The news is from a Indian official statement. Have the Chinese disclosed any casualties ?
 
This is all propaganda everyone.

No indians were killed. The indians have triumphed over the Chinese superpower and are now heading towards Beijing as we speak. Nothing to see here guys...........................:disagree:
