what do you think ? will modi get away if he didn't do anything ? will he be able to satisfy the anger of Indian public to save elections ?
Modi is many things. He is not stupid. Many Indians including I are hoping he loses the election. But yes, pressure on him by the opposition is only going to ratchet up. In India, there is usually unity in times of such attacks across party lines. Modi broke that rule when he went to Bombay during 26/11 and deeply criticized Manmohan Singh. The shoe is now on the other foot.
 
I am not at liberty to discuss operational matters, all I am permitted to say is that multiple assets were used to monitor Indian movement all across the indian peninsular.

A close ally is helping.
Sir what I am asking is How much they came in today and in which sector
 
Why didn't shoot them? Who cares about scrambling or what, they intruded and went back unharmed, remember how they shot Pakistan Navy plane in late 90's killing many personal on board, but here we are just scrambling.:disagree:
A fighter can pomp in and leave within 30seconds
 
Don't we have SAMS? You see a plane you shoot it down. Whats good is scrambling??
Even the short range SAM are not placed just after the fence if India just comes close to fence it would be called intrusion
 
I am really sorry to hear that. It's been many years, but I am sure it must have been terrible.
I'm just hoping history doesn't repeat itself, I would do anything to avoid a war. Pakistan & India need more trade between each other to reduce these situations, prime example being France & Germany. Thank you for your condolences.

Ties between Pakistan and India have been tense since a suicide bombing in occupied Kashmir killed over 40 Indian soldiers, with New Delhi blaming Pakistan of being complicit in the attack — a charge Islamabad has denied vehemently and from the get-go.

In response to India's allegations, Prime Minister Imran Khan promised New Delhi to conduct an investigation if provided “actionable evidence” but also warned that Pakistan will "retaliate" if attacked. The Pakistan army has also warned India to avoid "any misadventure", saying it could have dangerous consequences.

On the other hand, while Jaish-e-Muhammad had claimed responsibility for the attack, New Delhi immediately blamed Islamabad and also announced that it would launch a diplomatic offensive to isolate Pakistan in the international community.

Furthermore, India has scrapped the Most Favoured Nation status granted to Pakistan and has imposed a 200 per cent customs duty on its goods, barring the exports of tomatoes to Pakistan and denying visas to Pakistani athletes.

More on this: A terrifying fallout

The international community has expressed alarm over the situation and as Delhi is ratcheting up regional tensions, Foreign Minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi has also cancelled his scheduled official trip to Japan.

I think that even Govt was not anticipating that reaction or rhetoric used by the media , they have riled up the people to the point that now they want war and blood nothing less, and as you say Modi set different standards for his tough stands, so now he can not afford to look weak . we may disagree on the Surgical strike but one thing for sure that in India people believe it and now they don't even want another surgical strike they want a full scale war which i think even your army is little hesitant in starting .

IAF points 1677 and PAF points 872....

The reason these numbers, aircraft quantity and aircraft quality are meaning less because in reality, IAF had to turn back and flee when PAF approached it.
 
I'm just hoping history doesn't repeat itself, I would do anything to avoid a war. Pakistan & India need more trade between each other to reduce these situations, prime example being France & Germany. Thank you for your condolences.
Even I hope there is no war. Lives lost on either side would be terrible. I know Pak can't hand over guys like Jaish and LeT to India because they were once strategic assets. I just wish they would prosecute them though on their own soil. They can't poosibly good for Pak itself and for its image.

oh yeah yeah, I too have beaten four of your guys when i was in kuwait and till the time i lived there the entire chota pakistan locality lived in fear. maybe we can meet someday for a duel.
Both of you bring your keyboards to the fight.
