Man you guys are so gullible, what happened?? Madarassas not offering the latest in education? Who would've guessed?! Media plays up an issue and you guys yap along with your own arm chair analysis, without any due diligence.
India tested fission and thermonuclear devices in 1998. Questions...
I love your whole "crouching tiger, hidden dragon - i'm harder than you think - don't underestimate me" aura that you seek to present. Snap out, sir. There is no hidden strength or some extra muscle that BD can threaten us with.
By virtue of its sheer size and strength, india has the luxury of...
Well, for one we created BD, right after we sliced and diced you guys. We just created an entire country out of thin air, in a matter of days. That ought to rank in the top ten list.
we were once mighty and strong and commanded loyalty of millions over swathes of land for centuries together - it doesn't matter that we have been used and abused for generations together by daddy dearest (BRIT or US or China, depending on time of reference)since the early 19th century and have...
The acquisition of tools for naval power projection, is a more recent phenomenon. The author, who you cited, cites the deployment of US 5th and 7th fleet in the region as factors that undermined "indian aspirations". The realpolitiks of US-India relations aside, the 5th and he 7th were deployed...
I guess its too much to expect you to look beyond the headlines and to read between the lines.
The following is a brief list of other contributions from Khan A Sufyan.
Khan A. Sufyan - Eurasia Review
The unmistakable anti india disposition of the author, lead to questions about the...
Really?!?!? You want to quote Khan. A. Sufyan?! Why don't you cut to the chase and quote a link with rantings of Zaid Hamid or give us the link to Riaz Haq's blog?
Their views on india are as credible as B Raman's views on pakistan, or better yet, Thackrey / Modi's take on pakistan. Read up a...
Who's boss?! Why ask a poor, ill equipped and discriminated community to fulfil your fantasies. BD would like to have us beleive that it has potent and lethal armed forces. So why don't you take it upon yourself to show India who's boss? Or did you just grossly overestimate what you and your ilk...
Why all the talk of the Indus valley civilisation in a thread about violence in Assam.
It is most annoying that mature, educated men from pak resort to this balm of "my daddy strongest" BS, to shield themselves from the today's political realities.
For the all the pseudo martial race...
Relax. No one is questioning your loyalty to your new paymaster.
Its ironic that there are some like you who ridicule the indian caste system and pity the lower castes (and by all means, the caste system is an evil institution and causes unjust disparities), but don't mind playing the DALIT...
Yaar that's a picture of what the airport will look like once it is ready. I was living in Chennai for about 4 years, left in November of 2011. The airport is downright pathetic for a city that claims to be the Detroit of India. Specially the security check. I mean if more than 3 flights are...
Pakistan is standing?! With the help of crutches?!
Anyways, your opinion only adds to my case for proxies to be used on an unprecedented scale with funding and mobilizing discontent to undermine pakistan's sovereignty. It is, by far, the most viable tool to cause grievous injury. Internal...
As an Indian I am a worried man. The Sino Pak axis is flourishing. Russia is increasingly seeing greater mileage in looking favourably at china. India's neighbours are not overtly fond of it. And history stands testament to the unreliability of the US as a partner. India needs to launch proxies...
Pakistan containing india?! A country that has engaged india militarily 4 times, not once scored a comprehensive victory?? under the n-umbrella, does not have the confidence to engage India militarily, so resorts to desperate measures of terrorism?? a country which is running around like a...
Well India has been alleged to have violated the treaty for years. So, if it is as "invitation" for a no holds barred military exchange what has kept your friends from laucnhing into Indian soil. After all, the Chinese have godfathered them into becoming whatever it is they claim to be.
So...
India, irrespective of who it aligns itself with, can offer enough advantages for the ally to overlook the concerns of petite, irrelavant nations.
Peace be with you, my brother.
In the face off between US and China, i think, it is critical to see how Russia (india's cherished ally) responds. It is positioned as the kingmaker and is likely to be courted by all.
If it chooses to play a subservient role, in China's rise - it could spell trouble for Indian aspirations...
It is a small country which due to the tax arrangements is spelling trouble for India. India should come down on tax avoidance structures based in Mauritius. Besides, we can always bully them again, to offer us the islands.
This is too myopic a view, taken my many here. International relations are complex issues with millions of people as stakeholders. We cannot have a black or white approach. There are always shades of grey. We can't adopt a "love them or fu@k them" approach.
India has to keep the broader issues...
