Is this the 'new normal'?

I think PDF should consider a strict policy when Indian media is used as a source of some claim. If threads can't be started on social media claims, why not Indian media? Atleast zee and ani should not be allowed to be used as sources.

Sputnik's reporting on India Pakistan tensions has been dismal. They have been acting as spokespersons for indian defense ministry.

What are your sources for these talib casualty numbers? If not official afghan defence ministry numbers, then i would like to know. Anyway afghan government announced they will not be giving ANA casualty numbers a month or so back.

Indian media has a class of its own. Senseless bollywood flicks have done some irreparable damage.

I think to understand the level of chinese support 'chinese' analysts in west are not reliable sources. Infact these analysts don't really support CPC itself. They are the last people you should read to gauge the thinking in CPC. I can give you a link of an article not related to the point at...

@XiNiX. First of all, your heading is misleading. The way you have framed your words means that its China's official stance or statement. Nowhere in the article any such thing is mentioned. The actual heading on the article is different. The statement you have used in your heading is actually...

I think its a fair assessment. The last thing we need now is world powers intervening and shah mahmood telling us the retaliation was put off after deep concerns by international community of a nuclear armed conflict.

Can the mods and other experts here please get together and agree on a version of events and inform us rookies here. I still don't know EXACTLY what happened.

Thats BBC...

We don't know yet how many aircraft there were. Reports from previous days suggest both airforces were flying close to the border at times. DG ISPR says incursion was 3-4 miles. PAF jets must have been near to the IAF jets if they dropped the payload and went back. But of course it depends...

There are so many versions of what happened that its difficult to ascertain the failure you are referring to. So please tell us in detail what you believe happened highlighting specific failures of PAF. Also ispr tweeted incursion was 3-4 miles so whats your view on that?

If Iranian odficials came to ICJ and confirmed this, it would have helped Indian cause.

Remeber the QUINT article which was taken down? Former higher up in RAW admitting Yadav was a stupid over enthusiastic guy who was earlier stopped from such stupid actions. But then 'aggressive defence' came along and he ended up we all know where.

That's the thing. Aggressive defense it was called. They have already played their cards vis a vis proxies in Pakistan. Pakistan was patient. Reminds me of the conversation in Gladiator movie where the senator advises Cesar giving an example of a fish which acts like its dead. The prey assuming...

Did Iran know about Kulbhushan network and deliberately let it continue? As far as I can remember Pakistan took a very measured approach. We did not blame Iran but neither did we say they were unaware. Does anyone have any information in this regard?

Report from the beginning of last year. So this time they are taking longer to 'come close'.

The author talks about hard power but doesn't have the guts to say things openly. We know what he is implying but is not gutsy enough to state it clearly. In that, I believe, he answers the question he is asking.

Openly admitting CSD was not wise in my opinion. It not only gave Pakistan an excuse to develop and test tactical nukes pressure -free but also gives an impression of aggression. All preperation for the doctrine could have been made without open declaration.

As I was reading the article, I tried to guess which country it was from. Halfway down, I guessed India. Trump should be wary of cheerleaders. Indians' concerns are not reciprocated by their commitment on ground. Trump showed his frustration in his Modi-bashing. An appropriate action would be...
