back to the topic-you cannot compare the situation in libya to bharain......
Bahrain is rightly said to be the most westernised and free of all the gulf states, unemployment is lowest there(somewhere around 5%), the king is not a dictator as could be clearly seen if any of you had bothered to...
also having grown up in bahrain(and living there till last year) i can tell you that the people do have rights.....this is not some dictatorship where you get arrested for saying that the king is a bad man....people are free to express opinions, form political societies who are completely...
I agree that some people do have problems with the govt....but that happens in any country...do you have facts from legitimate sources that shias have been discriminated against?? this movemennt is not a fully nationalistic one...go to twitter and you will find as many people pro govt as there...
Are you just unwilling to accept that there might be two sides to a story?? And to clarify- I am no longer in bahrain....I just grew up there.
And i am not saying that the protesters do no have a cause.....just that they are blowing things out of proportion and terrorising the citizens. There...

super hornet seems to be the winner if it is a political decision....... seems like babu's are not worried abt sanctions...... personally i wouldnt go fr american planes.....
eurofighter is best plane but multi role functions are limited..... mig 35 is cheapest- full tot - aesa radar -...
personally i wud go fr the mig 35.......eurofighter is a better fighter jet by far but its not multi role (poor ground attack capability).... grippen has american components and will kill lca...... american planes makes us prone to sanctions.....rafale seems great on paper but the fact that it...
india does not openly support tibet.... india has said that tibet is a part of china many times....india supports one china (including taiwan)...... and i think the chinese are already aiding the rebels
70 km..... how is that long range.... seems mid range to me.... s 400 is real long range (we should try and get that)
anyways always nice to see new developments for indian armed forces

why r there tenders for bloody artillery guns??? why cant we just buy them like we did the t-90 tanks from russia.....no tenders, no trials - just went up to them and told them to deliver the bloody things (and give tot )
US carrier couldnt hv done anything as russian nuclear subs were there too...... part of the security agreement made my indira gandhi with russia before the war was that russia wud protect india from chinese and american agression..... and they did that admirably...:victory:
russia might have haggled over money- they might have caused some delay..... yet they have never put sanctions on us.....they even defended us against the US in 71 war wen US ships were in the bay of bengal . The more we buy frm US the more vulnerable we become to their sanctions..... a time...
i think our govt is - we got two offers to upgrade our mirage -2000... one frm france and one frm israel...
