Sure Hong Kong was a smooth transition because the Brits let go easily and they had a formal document ending the lease. Portugal had no intentions of ending its rule. It had rebuffed diplomatic overtures and taken a hardline position of no negotiation. But of course you must know this, what is...

Do you support colonialism? Costs are relative, Indian human cost in Siachen is hardly any different now from any operational casualty rate a military face anyplace. Apparently professionals dealing with Pakmil day in and out have differing opinions. Crack apart, like dismantling and...

And in your opinion it is not so any more. The current stand-off has prompted Military and Politicians to rethink their stand of never giving up on Siachen, we can expect further progress just by maintaining status quo. We both are oblivious of operational requirements in Siachen, reduction...

It has been tried earlier, where India was unilaterally doing partial climbdowns resulted in Kargil, with the civilian governments undergoing the biggest peace initiative in history. Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me....right? Unsanctioned by Civilian governments, I think...

Sure, persuade the Pakistanis sign off on a document recognizing the AGPL, that is GOI position as well. Mere words are hollow given Pakistani military history of sanctioned and unsanctioned aggression. Again, let them sign off on a document, there should be no reason not to considering that...

The airforce was bOmbing them all the way back to their bases and then some. Some of this was in breach of the rules but was overlooked nevertheless. I am not in exact info of the relative lethality of arty in this, however I can assure you of the debilitating effect iaf had having...

Hi Pakistanis have always had the better and daring plans. Kargil was a masterstroke. Unfortunately Pakistanis overestimated their capability to pull it off. I mean you could always plan to land on the moon, but you gotta consider your capabilities. They just sent brave soldiers to die...

It's a war of grits. If you can go to that lengths financially and human cost, your adversary has an idea of your resolve. Unfortunately to prove your grit, the price is lives, and Pakistan has realized it can afford neither finances nor human costs. Sad but the reality.

Dude like seriously seriously? You are quoting wikipedia articles in part, as well as Dalit extremist websites. It is well known that Dalit extremists have blamed brahmins specifically and attempted to portray them as Buddhist killers. While this may be true in Eastern parts of Ancient India...

The aircraft carrier had been moved after the fate of Bangladesh had been decided. Nixon was not ready to face accusations of threatening militarily India in favour of a perceived genocidal regime. By the time the Carrier was ordered to move, the Russians were already co-operating with the...

The Submarine story is just that, a story. That video proves nothing, if you have anymore solid proof pleased do share. The Russians main role in '71 was to keep China in check which they did beautifully. Later on on, the Russians would join hands with the US to save west Pakistan from...

Everybody is so obsessed about which religion was the biggest badass in war. I got one story too but its only has Indian soldiers and no religious fanatics. It's very sad though that true events and heroes are hardly remembered, only fantasies are cherished. This is a true event from...

I am sorry I dont know that many Pak army people, you mean to say he is here on this site? Gotta give it to you, you have a very deep knowledge of IA. It was known all along to higher brass that there was going to be no attack in 2001 or 02, the people who did not know it were the...

Who is this Pakistani general?

I googled for Pakistan after playing the Karachi map on MW2. :p But seriously, I heard about the Siachen incident since I have had family members serve tours up there and have been interested in it as a kid, I as googling it and landed here. I thought there were more number of good...

Are you being sarcastic dude? The day Pakistan and it's army accepts LoC as IB, that very day the Kashmir conflict is over .

Actually there are at least two Indian posts in public knowledge right on top of the glacier. One of them is the Kumar camp named after Narender Kumar, the first person to map the glacier and lead Indias mission on it. Although you are right that heights occupied are to the west of the...

I agree with you fully, if pigs could fly, they would be on siachen too. I agree with you too, there is one and only one reason to occupy siachen, and that is not its strategic value, thinking rationally will make you realize the real reason. Apparently recent events have justified the cause...

You are correct, Pak Army can never leave Siachen, because it is nowhere on Siachen glacier. Your army chief is definitely interested in getting out of Siachen area, you can register your objections of leaving siachen with him. I am sure if you volunteer to occupy the posts for him he will...

This is monumental. There have been more than a dozen efforts and negotiations already by civilian governments. Invariably there was a counter-response by the Pakistan Army to negate them. The attacks '89, SSG attack in '95, 99 and several others were right before negotiations as though to prove...
