@adios - well we are debating Pak's response to a possible Indian strike. There are two assumptions implicit -
1. There is a serious terror attack in India. Akin to 9/11. Thousands of Indians are killed. It could even be a dirty bomb or a chemical attack by LeT supported by Pak army.
2. India...
@Pak posters - such bluster and big talking - I'm impressed! Wonder why people do that - to hide their weaknesses perhaps !
If the way you people think (we'll reply with everything egot and such nonsense) is how the Pak military leaders think the only conclusion is that Pak is a reckless child...
@Blackblood - you are taking this personally. As if you will be fighting the Indian forces! :)
Please comment as to the likely response of the Pak government. Many Indians wanted India to hit back at Pak after 26/11 that did'nt mean that the government did so.
@Asim - I know Pak has been going on about it for 60 years. I wonder you will stop coveting Kashmir and get on with developing your own country.
As soon as terrorism in Kashmir is stopped Kashmir will return to normalcy and the so called "freedom movement" will die out. You can see the signs of...
First of all any strike on Pakistan will not be unprovoked as you mention.
I think India will only attack militant training camps near Lahore and in *** to keep world opinion on it's side. Brahmos cruise missiles and laser guided air force strikes would be used.
The Pak response will be...
@seiko - i guess you silenced the Pak posters.
I'm sick of hearing about human rights abuses. No one knows the real story here. Who knows that this man was shot dead by the army or by the militants. Or can't someone be hit in a cross fire ? The Indian Army does not want to operate in interior...
@Windjammer - please understand the basics of a war - It is not fought fair, one on one!
Pak was defending smaller territory than India. It was Pak strategy that defence of East lies in the West. Basing only 1 squadron in the East was a bad strategic decision. Just like Hitler telling Paulus to...
BD posters - if you help your friend you do it and expect your friend to help you. Now can't India expect some gain after helping BD ? It's only natural. Plus it's a win-win situation for BD and India. Does BD want to be India's ally and friend or an enemy ? What is the gain by being India's...
@Windjammer - any link to the strike where most of the Mig 21 s were destroyed. I don't recall any such strike having taken place ! btw should'nt the thread topic say "alias" instead of "alas" ? :)
Yes India is helping Afghanistan for gaining a foothold in that country. But the Afghanis have welcomed us into their country and are gaining from India's help. India is interested in seeing a progressive, modern Afghanistan and so is the rest of the world. What does Pak want Afghanistan to be ...
@Windjammer - please live in your fool's paradise.
Which air force was dominating the skies at the end of the 1971 and had more than double the planes of the other air force. Suffice to say India won the Air war. No question.
Soviet Union lost more tanks, men and aircraft than Germany. But who won the war ? Pakistan accepted that they lost the 1971 war to India. Learnt that they can't beat India in a war.
Pak went ahead to use Sikh and Kashmiri terrorists/freedom fighters to defeat India. They continue on such a...
calling a team ordinary is disrespectful and wrong. Bangladesh showed that they can fight India. We Indians need to show more respect to Bangladesh - you never know when they would start beating us. Did the Australians or English imagine India beating them in the 1950s ?
hmmm.. looks like revenge from the Indian Army to me. Hope that this does not start tit for tat actions up and down the LoC. We need the cease fire to hold for regional peace.
India needs to start talking to Pak soon as well.
PAF is a defensive air force which will try and prevent IAF from taking over the Pak skies. IAF is not yet equipped to gain air superiority over Pak skies. It is moving in that direction though. 126 Rafales or Eurofighters could help the IAF become a dominant force as Pak will have nothing to...
