    U.S. drone shot down in Pakistan

    The OP is at it again. Corrupting and distorting titles of articles which have been authored by other people. Lack of basic honesty. The Taliban does not have the means to shoot down a drone. They can make any stories out of it but this one like the one in Iran too crashed due to a malfunction.

    Another Child Sacrifice In India

    Ummmmmmm what you allude to is perhaps the violent and bloody manner in which Lamaism was propagated in Tibet. The Shamans were massacred in large numbers, burnt to death and often their dead bodies desecrated to scare away the others. That was how the Manchurian emperors (Qing dynasty) rooted...

    Indian Soldier Awarded for Fighting Off 30 Train Attackers in 2010

    Yes, this story was missed out by our media but not so the international media. I read it about a year ago on the Military News Humor Photos - StrategyPage. Posting the earlier article here with link. Not much difference in the narration. One Gurkha, 40 Bandits, No Contest February 3...

    MFN status to India will put 70pc rural jobs at stake

    We Indians import a lot of stuff from China and almost all the things we import from China are cheaper than the ones made locally in India. So does that mean that China 'is working on multi-dimensional strategy under the garb of bilateral trade?' and that we 'feared a deep rooted conspiracy on...

    offers to india for halting iranian oil

    Is that enough? Will they accept our Rupees? If not, then the Saudi offer maybe considered only in case war breaks out in Iran and our shipments from Iranian oilfields stop. Other than that, the deal we have going with Iran is still the best one available.

    Manmohan Singh blames US NGOs for anti-nuclear demonstrations

    No one should disagree with the proposal of additional security or safety measures. But there should be stop to this agitation when the additional measures are put in place. The question is whether the US funding of the agitation ever allow it to stop.

    UNSC bows to India, mum on Iran

    I agree with you there, however, there is nothing for us to apologise about. People are requested not to get stuck on obviously frilly and exaggerated parts of a preamble but to get to the core message.

    Manmohan Singh blames US NGOs for anti-nuclear demonstrations

    Tidal wave, solar, wind, geothermal, hydrogen fuel cells, bio gas etc etc. Why are we even talking of all these options now when it is only the nuclear power generation which is currently on the table. That too after expenditure of huge sums of taxpayer's money, the work on the plant has been...

    UNSC bows to India, mum on Iran

    Why bro? It is the largest English language newspaper in circulation in the world. Just because some people here don't like it so what? Nothing wrong with the news content here. India did stymie an attempt to blame Iran for the terrorist strike in New Delhi without adequate evidence. The title...

    Iran, India & Uncle Sam!

    Hey buddy, KSA is a friend of India, has been for a long time, in fact we buy most of our oil from KSA. So what is the problem with buying some more? Your King offered to increase production to meet our needs, very nice of him to do that, so we take you up on your offer. Iran is also a friend of...

    Iran will never seek nuclear weapons: Leader

    I don't see anything wrong with Iran opting for nukes. If we can do it, Israel can do it and Pakistan can do it then so can Iran. No one has the monopoly over nukes. But this is sounding more and more like Iraq, circa 2003. This drama with the IAEA inspection team. The west says they have not...

    IN or PLAN?

    Right now? Neither the PLAN nor the IN. In terms of airpower, PLAN does not yet have an operational carrier. IN's Harriers of which we do not even have a squadron (maybe 10 or 12 left) are too few to make any impact, despite the Derby A2AMs, they would be outnumbered hugely and cut down. A...

    What if the 'people' don't want democracy?

    Yes, they had the choice but made certain unwise decisions to find themselves in the mess they are in. Even now they have the choice to toe the line as advised to or dump the EU altogether. Look, I believe that the people of these nations you mentioned genuinely wanted to discard the...

    What if the 'people' don't want democracy?

    Small children are perfectly happy to have the parents take all decisions on their behalf as long as their requirements are met. Many uneducated wives leave all decision making to the husbands. A degree of competence, knowledge and self confidence is needed to be able to say that one wants to...

    Gun culture spreads in India

    I renewed my gun license a couple of months ago. The office of the JCP Licensing where this was done was so crowded, one could barely find place to stand. believe me, most of these guys have no political connections, neither do I. It is not that difficult to obtain a gun license here, this is a...
