I am just repeating it , I know what you mean. For me the mere presence of India trough more than 20 consulates in Afghanistan (A country at war) was an indication of the services India was rendering to the US, now it seems it is reaping the benefits.. It is the US strategists who have created, initiated and played this game, so they are its genuine masters, It shows clearly that diplomacy has been played as an intelligence game, with all its components of covert, overt and deceit..Now India is the new mistress of the US (don't know if thie latter can be considered as a male or female, but it works in both cases)Hi,
I mean you sound so innocent in your post---did you not know that from the begining---. Did you not know what was coming from the americans once they started bombings from the north and pushed every terrorist into pakistan alongwith Osama Bin Laden and his cohorts---.
I have been writing about that for 10 years on this board---about this kind of scenario and you are telling me about it like it is fresh news.
And about the JF17---if we believe our Retd air force officer---what he has stated---then the JF17 program is far behind where everyone anticipated it to be now.
Then there is a much bigger concern for defense of pakistan than it was otherwise---. But then I don't believe him---I am sure the program is much farther ahead than he claims it to be---he is just trying to spread some misinformation.
Otherwise the sale to Nigeria and Myanmar would not have materialized and the aircraft would not have been sent out for air show fly bys and display----nice try though.
It is Pakistan who has paid a dear price in men and in economics, but Did Pakistan had any other choice, due to the geostrategic position of the war in Afghanistan? I guess not; first the Russian invasion of Afghanistan (It seems that they had a plan for Pakistan too!), than merly 2 or 3 years later came the American Invasion.. it looks like they were both in some accord to occupy this strategic place of Afghanistan for the benefit of something higher (Since they both share the same Faith; if you remember well enough, the US called the Invasions of Iraq and Afghanistan: Crusades).
One can synthesise a lot from these facts..
Pakistan played the game forced uppon its shoulders, lost some and gained some. It is not for nothing that it has decided to go on its own or with a reliable partner towards indigenisation of some vital industries like Air force and Navy, JF-17, F-22 corvettes and the Agusta AIP submarines, Al khalid tank was also part of that plan..I personnaly consider the JF-17 a succes..
