Taiwan is as much a red line for the CCP as Kashmir is for us. China knows that they have the upper hand as of now and this upper hand will only grow as the US and its NATO partners weaken in the ongoing war. This is no longer a West Asia-style quick conflict. There are several points that bring...

Looks like they are going to cancel Pelosi's visit. China does not mind crossing into the military line if its sovereignty is compromised. If it is cornered, it retaliates with extreme force. Biden will blink.

It is a good theory. But it will be difficult to convince Putin at least, that the West wants him on their side. He has no love for China but knows that both sides are trying to cripple Russia. The West wants Russian resources, while destroying their military-industrial complex, while the CCP...

Ukraine is Europe's food basket, much like our Punjab. During Soviet times, over 70% of the food crops were grown here that not only fed Soviets, but were also exported. Ukraine has one of the most fertile lands in Europe with ideal summers to grow a ton of fruits, vegetables & cereal (winters...

Not happening. I really am beginning to have doubts about the QUAD. If this is how Biden-Harris continue to simp with Emperor Xi, we need to activate the French trump card. France may not be able to take on China's might but it can definitely convince the EU to boycott China economically & exert...

Why are you so surprised? The 90s was a crazy time around the world. This asshat was our Defence Minister: Basically, only the traditional Western allies were having proper governments in that decade. Countries like Russia, China, Myanmar, former USSR states were in the dumps.

The modern CCP is quite ahead in many research areas and has innovated a lot. Look at their composite and graphene patents for example. More than anything. Their construction companies are using them, their engineering companies are using them. Meanwhile, our construction lalas are using no new...

And that's exactly what I am worried about. You see, this whole myth of associating CCP's aggression with the "middle kingdom" propaganda is just Western ignorance of the East as usual. In ancient China, the Middle Kingdom logic was only philosophical; much like how our land was called...

It would be interesting to see that in the event Civil War 2.0 breaks out in the USA in the coming couple of years, how well are our IFS & defense policymakers prepared to address the geopolitical scenario. If the global cop is busy dousing the flames engulfing his police station, that puts...

I certainly hope we double our defence budget. Not only that, there are consecutive bans on import lists with regular updates as we proceed towards domestic platforms. But I don't see this happening until we see another war. Wars are not good so please don't tell me that; I have 2 brothers who...

You seem to be playing too much Call of Duty, bhai sahab. :rofl::rofl: Wars especially with bully powers are very, very nasty.

Tell me one simple thing: How many countries, given the current global economic conditions, public distrust, and reemergence from a global pandemic, do you think would dare to send boots on the ground against China? Honestly. Do you really think that the US will send its troops against the...

Nothing anti-semitic here. We are just talking about how powerful, smart and shrewd they were to create so many conflicts to secure their position and generate finances.

Fighting the PRC is going to be more than just getting reservists ready. Taiwanese people are no longer as nationalistic as they were back in Chiang Kai-Shek's time. Their military 'will to fight' is lower than ever and in the event that the country is invaded, many will prefer running away to...

Well, I certainly hope that all the countries are prepared for it. The CCP is a rogue regime that can take any measures necessary to get what it wants.

You misunderstand the scenario that I have assumed here; the objective of PLA would not be just to straddle over and capture the island. It would be to employ terror tactics to scare the opposition into submission. China is well aware of their troops' performance in a war where the enemy shoots...

Indian defence purchases are handicapped by babus. Without declaring a national emergency, nothing will move in time, quantity or quality in case a war breaks out.

Are you so naive to think that US will sacrifice 50% of its trade for some tiny island that was also manned by Chinese? It is just a political tool. Please avoid using the word Chink - it is not something I'd appreciate as it is used by some morons for my people as well despite we being...

That is precisely what I am concerned about. The US and China have been for long flirting with the idea of G-2, where the two come to a compromise and divide the world along the USSR-era lines, with trade being the primary mode of diplomacy. US may be training Taiwanese soldiers, but training...

What I am trying to say is that PLA will most likely do this to set an example and intimidate other countries into not resisting their demands; meaning us and the Australians. Taiwan is the perfect country to make an example of: 1) It is considered a renegade part of China that PLA can enter...
