Escape from Rezang La A Brave story(1962 war Latest Documentary)
While India may have suffered great losses during the Sino-Indian conflict of 1962, the war is also known for one of the significant defenses put up by India at the battle of Rezang La. This battle was significant in keeping the Chinese away from the Chushul airfield and Ladakh. 120 unprepared Indian soldiers fought over 5000 Chinese soldiers. Of the 120 men, 114 were killed including the brave commander Shaitan Singh, 6 were taken as prisoners of war and 1 was sent back by the commander to warn the army about the Chinese invasion. The story of Rezang La is about the brave effort of messenger Ram Chander Yadav who bought news of the attack to the mainland and of Nihal Singh who despite being heavily wounded escaped out of Chinese territory.

If anyone wants to watch the documentary of the same escape story of Dalai lama I can post it here !!

It would be a mistake to release the Chinese soldier if he has gathered any intelligence about Indian positions or electronic warfare through snooping devices he was/is hiding, or perhaps discarded before getting caught.

Excellent video. My summary:

@4.30 - PLAN expansion based on a spectrum of missiles to knock out US Pacific fleet (including aircraft carriers) and other navies such as Indian Navy as well. Then the CCP will have free hand to prosecute its economic goals globally.

@5.30- PLAN is not yet a global military force maybe like the US. It will likely get there by 2030 to 2045.

@8.15 - A lot of Taiwanese people are finally waking up to the PLA threat to takeover Taiwan as being real.

@8.25 - The US view is that it will be very difficult for the CCP to take Taiwan but the CCP is still planning to do so.

@10.00 - around 2012- 2015 the US let China off the hook in the South China Sea, therefore the US needs to act this time vis-a-vis Taiwan.

@11.30- Naval exercises and grouping like the QUAD are very important to send a message and to deter the CCP. These exercises and groups are deterrence backed by real force.

@15.45- It is crucial US and India move forward and bed down interoperability to make US and India joint operations successful.

@18.00- P8 aircraft crucial for Indian Ocean surveillance.

@18.35 – Andaman and Nicobar Islands are the cork in the bottle for Malacca Straits to prevent untoward CCP ingress in to the Indian Ocean in case of a dispute with China.

@19.30-Need a multi pronged global focus on the CCP‘s military expansionism including to deny the CCP cash to fund its military expansionism.

lol this is nothing, Dell how has "MADE IN INDIA" next to most of their Laptops listed on their website, but this MADE IN INDIA is only in the pictures of the laptop, no where can I find it in text on the site, nor in reviews, and neither can I find a press release stating they are assembling laptops here instead of CBU import from China.
Is there anywhere I can complain about specific sites not following COO rule for listed products?
Instead of giving 15 days notice.. say that their licence to operate will be suspended till they rectify and pay fine.

will get done with 12 hours.

If they say Made in India when it is not, there are a whole bunch of other laws that are being violated from fake advertisment to wilful fraud.

Seems like a case of unsecured cargo, not of truck manufacturing quality.
Maybe bad quality of cargo fasteners.
except I can't see any cargo in there.. seems like an empty truck where the fittings had broken down and detached when truck braked.

Have seen vids were unsecured cargo comes and smashes to the front and front falls over.. this seems truck was faulty

Let's put Brahma's opinion to test..

Did he in any of his writings or speeches or debates in the past, put forth this argument?
If yes, his point is accepted.
If not, the chap is bluffing. he is projecting an idea he is expressing for the first time as a forgone conclusion which everybody should have known.

That's not how policy formation works, somebody has to pitch an idea before hand, then the idea is debated, consensus formed, and made into a policy. it takes years, sometimes decades for an idea to become a policy.
exactly this.. as much as I support that PoV, to me it seems like he is trying to claw back some brownie points.

Here’s What Could Happen If China Invaded Taiwan: That scenario, while still remote, is being taken more seriously these days.

Xi Jinping’s Chinese Communist Party has threatened to invade Taiwan for more than seven decades. Now fears are growing among analysts, officials and investors that it might actually follow through over the next few years, potentially triggering a war with the U.S.

Chinese troops who make it ashore would face roughly 175,000 full-time soldiers and more than 1 million reservists ready to resist an occupation. Taiwan this week announced it would set up a defense mobilization agency to ensure they were better prepared for combat, the Taipei Times reported.
a very nice and to the point scenario analysis:

We really need to work on our shipyards id we want to match china take help from Korean and Japanese if possible.

QUAD is a temporary arrangement and can be considered a cheery on top.

We have to make sure we have absolute control of Indian Ocesn from Kanyakumari to Antarctica, from Mallaca to Cape of New Hope.
It's called Indian Ocean so take a hint.

Extremely informative article regarding a quick land grab. Something we can also emulate in case of GB. The use of para troopers along with air strikes would be key in regaining GB. All local logistical support to Paki army must be destroyed in short time. Local Police & other security assets included. GB is large & mountainous area.. So quick land grab is very very tough but we can destroy any sort of advantage Paki army has there & once that's gone it would be like a walk in the park.

I seriously doubt that the Chinese would go around fighting city to city they are not that stupid neither will they start bombing cities that is even more foolish.

IMO they will take out their airbases and navy and once they land troops on the ground they were will be massive propaganda of the the defeat and then you might see opposition parties funded by china like KMT launching a coup to prevent the so called pointless deaths we might see elements of the military defecting and the opposition might then cease hostilities and join china.

I personally feel china won't just start firing they want Taiwan intact and the global outrage low.

Might sound like a fantasy but India should be prepared at its Northern border for a quick offensive & sieze the opportunity (Quid Pro Quo 1962) INCASE a full blown war happens on China's eastern front.
aren't we glad the troops are already set. No need to mobilise anew.

India can decide when and where it can make its move
