Last Year literally every PDF Pakistani posters were turning cartwheels assuring everyone that India was going to be sanctioned.
At the time I offered any amount from £500 to £5000 saying there would be no sanctions. The money to be placed in the hands of webby who will judge who was right.
I even offered to sweeten the deal by offering better than even odds.
I said put your money where your mouth is.
While every celebrating Pakistani here was so utterly convinced of the coming sanctions, none would take the bet.
Since that offer to PDF members to earn a wedge of money, India has bought Apache's, Long ranged armed drones, C17's Aircraft engines etc from the US and will continue to buy WHATEVER India feels it needs from the USA.
And Russia and France.
And of course there will be no sanctions. Its beginning to dawn to those cheer leaders of those promised sanctions here, that they were wrong.
They are now busy constructing conspiratorial reasons to explain what was clear to anyone with even a tangential knowledge of realpolitik.
