    India-China 2020 Border conflict

    China at first claimed that it suffered no casualties whatsoever. Many, many months later, they admitted to four, and then five. American, Russian and Indian accounts all state 40-50 Chinese deaths. The truth comes out in India pretty quickly, it's not like China or Pakistan, which takes...

    India-China 2020 Border conflict

    Pakistan has nothing going for it, except being a hired gun, a condom, a conduit. India has lots going for it, including being one of the fastest, if not the fastest, growing economies in the world. Of being a pluralistic democracy, where the military stays out of politics, and many more.

    India-China 2020 Border conflict

    Getting exposed by whom? If India is being attacked, it can't be because the world believes China or Pakistan. Or if they do accept the Chinese/Pakistani propaganda, that the acceptance is for honourable reasons. That's virtually impossible. Knowing the state structures and media of those...

    It's good to see Indians, including Indian news agencies, being vocal and proactive, if that is what they are doing. A common refrain heard about India, is that it does not express or present its views, information and philosophy. While the Chinese, and Pakistanis, go on with their own crude...

    India-China 2020 Border conflict

    "Want to laugh, Indians tell the Chinese that your life is too miserable, and our per capita income is five times that of India, and life expectancy is ten years longer than that of India." Indians don't view everything in terms of pie charts and bar graphs, but yes, those are important too.

    India-China 2020 Border conflict

    And yet the attention in recent years has been drawn to Moslem casualties during that whole integration process. By writers like Pankaj Mishra( right in the NY Times) and the British leftist, Perry Anderson. Not one word about Hindu losses. This is again an issue, where people have to give out...

    India-China 2020 Border conflict

    ^ One of the stupidest refrains coming out of discussions like the above, is the idea that India would be much better served improving its economy and uplifting its people out of poverty, rather than counter China at the border, or say anything about China. As if all India is doing 24-7 is...

    India-China 2020 Border conflict

    A pro China propaganda site, by two non-Chinese! This particular installment is about India. Some very condescending and ignorant stuff put out. Anyone know of this?

    India-China 2020 Border conflict

    Actions do take place in India, though they are often delayed. There was some complaining about the Chinese company Vivo sponsoring the IPL league, and it was removed( Aug 2020). Now, a Chinese brand has been dropped from supporting the Indian olympic team.
