We are worrying too much about Chinese aggression,
not downplaying them but let's not over imagine & twist our selves.
India is NOT a priority to China, not in the near future, reason for that is that there is no easy way for them to cross Himalayas or Indian Ocean to attack us.
It's not a remote possibility. The maximum they can do is a short skirmish at border points.
In this case, India can absorb these skirmishes and even dish out mayhem at their border points as well - just like we are doing with Pakis.
Chinkies don't want that.
Coming to the whole fiasco in last few months....
Chinkies did not expect India to behave this way to salami slicing. They have been doing this shit for decades & we never pushed back. So, they came in expecting something similar.
the hard stance both militarily & economically is something Chinkies did not expect.
Their rollback is not unexpected, India is not a threat to them & they are not really a threat to us.
Their main focus & aim is more towards their eastern border.
They really can't afford to move significant portion of their military towards India and leave their eastern sector empty.
In case of war, they would pretty have to pull everything from everywhere and bring it to Indian border - which they cannot afford.
Any war with India will not a short, pretty or decisive one. What's worse, Chinkies would really end up getting hurt.
Bottom line....lets observe 2 minute silence for Paki female dogs who were wanking off to Xi raising CCP flag on red fort.
I've a bit different view.
India isn't a priority to China - is true as well as false.
may be the primary target of China is not India but the secondary target is.
they have to secure Karakoram Highway and a different route to Arabian sea in case of any conflict and Karakoram highway passes through Indian territory that is illegally occupied by Porkis.
one of the main reasons of this standoff was/is Karakoram highway and GB.
they are a real and very potential threat to us.
they are
- backing Porkis.
- baking Naxals
- backing NE terrorist orgs
- encircling us with string of pearls
- causing disharmony among neighbours and India
- trying to kill our industries by dumping goods.
- five finger approach
- middle kingdom mentality
and many more.
if we consider China as not a threat to us then we'd also consider Porkis as our friends.
Porkis announced GB as their 5th province and we are not that much bothered on that. so this time this standoff may subside. but that doesn't translate into China isn't a threat to us.
