Nice do some shopping and i was expecting some reasonable reply. Which i believe you don't have.Duly noted.

Operationally I might trust Doval as a carreer spook (perhaps one of the most experienced India has ever produced).Lets not forget the man who has given a green signal to Pakistan SIT in Pathankot- Doval.
Me thinks its a master move...
1) The most obvious reason- international community is given a feel that India is ready to go any extent to thaw its relations with Pakistan(not that its a necessity). This step would mount more pressure on Pakistan to act responsibly.
2) This is a risk- a big one at that. Its like asking a suspect to visit the crime scene, and observing him to see what leads and evidences disturbs him. In short, it helps you gain more evidences. But as i said this is an extremely risky move.
I trust Doval on this.
so are they finally coming to India?

But the longer this goes on the more I think the Pakistanis are the ones who have played a strategic masterstroke and made the Indian establishment not only look foolish but impotent. Remember after 26/11 when Pakistan's hand was clear for the world to see but the Pakistani establishment refused to accept it? As a result India was the net beneficary of sympathy, support and moral authority. This lead to tanigble benefits such as increased anti-terror coportation with friendly nations and left Pakistan rather exposed in many international arenas. But this time, Pakistan's lip service "coperation" effectviely negates all of the above, Pakistan is simply furthering its "we are a victim" narrative and being, effectively, let off the hook. The net result will be the same- no prosecutions on the Pakistani side of the masterminds of the attack and the infrastructure left intact to carry out more operations against India but now India looks like it is being unreasonable and Pakistan simply looks like a hapless victim trying their best but with limited resources.
What's also niggling me is that I happened to watch a few youtube videos that were panalist discussions post the Mynamar "hot pursuit" operations in Juna 2015. The GoI/BJP officals back then were so eager to beat their chests and claim "no one messes with India" and "all India's enemies should be scared" or "this is the only government that will go after terrorists who attack India wherever their safe havens maybe" etc etc and the end result a few months later? The same old impotent, status quo-seeking behaviour, we have seen for decades from sucessive GoIs. Pakistan is allowed to strike at will into India, what cost is the GoI imposing on them as a result? I notice that much of the discussion is around Doval but he is not the PM the last time I checked, were is the self-styled "tough guy"? Aside from some pleasant-sounding soundbites ("attacked humanity" and such) in the aftermath of the attack, Modi has been notebaly silent on this matter. And what exactly is the status of the FS talks? Are they going to be carried out "over the bodies of dead soldiers" (a phrase coined by the BJP in 2013)? You could excuse MMS somewhat for his inaction (dual centres of power, coalition compulsions- all the typical excuses) but Modi is meant to be different and enjoys an unprecedented majority in Parliament. Instead you have a nation of 1.3 billion capitulating to the Somalia of the region.
India may have won the battle but Pakistan continues to win the war.

The infrastructure on the Indian side may have been destroyed (rather irrelevent as they were succesful in their mission-up to a point) but on the Pakistani such infrastructure (that is far more extensive) will remain intact, free to plan further attacks in the future.A perfunctory display of sorrow and vengeful wrath often follows such actions which a state wishes to disavow. Pakistan is hardly striking at will. The entire infrastructure for this attack which would have taken the Pakistanis many months/years to develop is now destroyed. Their network of informants, etc. will be unraveled now that their hand has been played. Chances are attacks of this type will no longer be possible in the future. (hopefully).
A legitimate campaign to degrade the Pakistani state terror machine-nothing more, nothing less, however this can be acheived. There will be many that claim the "nuclear umbrella" negates India's ability to carry out such operations but this is a strawman argument- if you applied some forethought to the objectives they could be acheived. The US has been able to prosecute their enemies at will in FATA and elsewhere on Pakistani soil. India can build consensus within the international community (paying special attention to Pakistani's owners- the US, China and Saudi Arabia) assuring them that they will simply be going after legitimate terrorist targets with conventional forces (in this sense this is said to mean non-nuclear assets) and will be happy to provide the actionable inteligence with the world community after each attack/operation. Clear communication and expression of intention will entirely negate the possibility of Pakistani escalating to the N option.Now what would you have the GoI do in a case like this?
The question here is,the place where the incident tool place, needs to investigated for proofs and if u won't let that happen how can u carry out a fair inquiry of the matter.....any sane person will agree with that....or India has something to hide here....if u can think of any other reason...plz enlighten me???before the people jump the gun here, more details would be welcome. Why would a Country open up a forward airbase to another country - specially Pakistan - against whom the airbase was installed in the first place?
Also, There is a lot of interest in this side of the world to see the talks between the two countries to continue and so far there has been no news to suggest that the talks have been stalled. This report looks more like a news reporter jingoism.
Lmao. Please Don't embarrass our Indian MembersObviously his patience will be Exhausted
Cause NSG took 4-5 days just to clear the base which was first 13 km then 17 km and then 24 km even they didn't even know the area of Air base
This is how it was always going to be- the MoD/Indian military takes dereliction of duty seriosuly- you are going to be some serious heads roll.Bro, there is a deeper issue then whats in media or in public domain.. The information trickling points to many flaws within our own establishments which is why we have no choice but to accept GOP cooperation..
You remember the guy named Jugal Purohit, the one who declared FGFA in trouble when NaMo was landing in Moscow.. This is what he has written latest

Too true. Of course it is far easier to form a consensus in a small nation with, relative, homogeneity of views, beleifs, outlooks, education etc etc- India is just a mess in comparison. Not only that, but Israel is a nation where strategic concerns have always taken precedent in their national affairs, India is comparatively very inward looking and most Indian leaders have absolutely no exposure to such considerations nor do they care to have them.There is no solution of trying to go after GOP whatever be the situation. The reason being India is not Israel.. As good as we may talk about the "willpower" & "resolve" of a small nation is 10000 times more than India's. Look at them doing everything first within their own country right from borders, to surveillance to self defence.. and then when an attack happens, they chase the perpetrators down across the globe and let Mossad take on missions to finish the job.. Here even if we know Dawood Ibrahim is sitting in say Dubai or any other country, our corridors of power sorry to say dont have ballsey to authorise a shoot down but we can keep on with the rhetoric and ask another country to hand him over with telephone bills, a news channel phone call live broadcast and a latest photo showing how he looks.
You took him into protective custody- that isn't an arrest.Pakistan was willing to cooperate and even arrested JeM and sealed their offices, even with such a good will gesture by our side
@Abingdonboy - A solid assessment but then again the ground realities also are a much bigger issue of concern.

Now when you are in such a precarious position, you are bound to control the verbal assault.. No doubt post Myanmar people of ruling NDA went over the top saying surgical strikes and ops are very much possible but here the assessment is much grimmer.. Not bcz that such ops are not possible but rather bcz there is a much bigger Geo Political Compulsion also playing against our hands.
FOr the moment the idea should be to concentrate on trying to dismantle the terror structure overtly (not covertly) and buy us a time of at least 12 months plus. If we can buy out those 12 months,, and strengthen our weaknesses right from border patrolling to weeding out all moles, spies and people who are in sleeper cells we can effectively bring about a time of peace by destroying the entire ecosystem inside India and re establishing all the same will require minimum few years . During that whole time, the overt measures of bringing the perpetrators to justice should continue to ensure the pressure is ON

i apologize if i am harsh but then we must as a country first look at our own house and get it in order along with a iron will and a 10000 times stronger resolve. We should demonstrate that by wiping our house clean from all suhc bugs and sleeper cells.. and strengthen our borders and multi layer security system. This is to ensure no such corruption like seen in Punjab police drug involvement case is repeated and our own house gets breached bcz of few lacs of rupees..
Only then any terror organisation and any country working against us will fear again from repeating Mumbai attacks, parliament attacks, pathankot attacks etc etc..
