1. I have served the length and breadth of the LOC and never seen a tank there.
2. As I said before, the logistics of the entire affair make it highly implausible.
3. I noted that a tank would be a magnet for ATGMs.
I am sure one or two such cases must have occurred but I assure you that it...
1. The explosions seemed to be taking place in a chain.
2. I am not certain Indian forces maintain any Armour presence on fwd posts, the logistics make it impossible. Most of these posts cannot even be serviced by an ATV.
3. The frequency and range of hits indicates multiple batteries or...
Maybe, maybe not. Can't be certain. Too many ATGMs being fired in some of them for them to be just training videos though.
There are some that could be training videos however, once again, its iffy. The Indian video being posted last week as the supposed "response" by 22 Sikh to the PA surely...
In that case, China would have gone public with it already and produced the tapes from the incident to validate their claim. Keeping mum about it when they followed protocol would just serve to undermine their own legitimacy.
On a training flight, its unlikely the aircraft was carrying weapons...
Fwd bases are not activated on intelligence regarding a potential terrorist attack though. I also believe that its a normal operational readiness exercise.
Shooting down a military aircraft on a routine training flight without any weapons or surveillance equipment on board is unnecessary and amounts to an act of provocation, if not an act of war. If the aircraft did cross the boundary, the Chinese can just intercept it and force it to land.
You do realize there's a difference between East Pakistan and Pakistan's Coast right?
2000 miles with no land/sea access and right at the base of the heartland, makes quite a difference to the situation.
Then there's the attitude of the populace in question.
Just asking, I'm willing to concede...
From what I can guess, the pants are not ripped by the force of the blast, its too clean a cut for that. They were probably cut open by the paramedics to apply dressing over the knee.
Surely you aren't implying that there was only one woman wearing blue jeans that day? Besides, the woman in the first picture is flanked by first responders in high-visibility jackets whereas in the second, she is flanked by individuals in civilian clothing. These pictures were no taken...
I've seen videos from the venue, the sound of the explosion is more of a pop than a bang. Doesn't sound like a powerful explosion. I conjecture most of the casualties may be due to a following stampede.
May the departed rest in peace.
Unless his family or one of the bystanders has filed a complaint, there's no need for you to worry about the police. I suggest that you go to the Police Station which has jurisdiction over the area where this incident took place and ask them if they have been informed of this case and if so...
Global warming man, everything we have known and loved is slowly going to fade away starting with the polar ice caps, followed by most animal species and then eventually humans. It is merely an ominous sign of times to come.
