When soldiers are dispensable, civilians like you and me hardly stand a chance.

We are at least putting up some form of token resistance, border infrastructure development... I doubt we would have seen Rafales and S-400 ever under UPA rule.

Though I agree we must also indulge in such snatch&grab operations but way I see it, Govt. is preparing for one final showdown instead of allowing China to engage us at multiple places and wear us down.

Yes, pride and dignity takes a beating but look at the Chinese side when Weibo exploded with search requests after Shiv Aroors tweet on PLA casualties due to weather conditions during the first week of January. They denied it but the citizens know their Govt. is lying and here we have Govt. friendly media which usually gets the first soundbytes from ground zero make very confident claims. You can't ignore those though we have not provided any proof.

The Chinese only keep coming up with footage of the Galwan clash. Its like a loser who got laid once claiming to be the Prom King every Friday night.
We cannot ignore it true but India like always only ends up making claims while the Chinese show actual proof. It is what it is.

One can say oh it's galwan it's doctored it's of a different incident but India has not even shown anything from galwan.

This whole final showdown is a feel good thing. After 14 meetings and 14 fuck offs I don't think we are preparing for some final showdown.

Trade tries are mostly back to normal and the govt is not interested in any further escalation with 3 back to back election years.

PLA is back at Sirijap. Isn't that a gain?

They wouldn't have gone back if we didn't have anything to barter against.

Man, they are not at Finger 4. They are back at Sirijap. That's a big win IMO after Galwan.

What have the Chinese showed other than Galwan?

They came and shook their Dao's at our men, we fired in the air and they meekly went back. We outmaneuvered them not once but at many points.

The border issue needs to be settled. If we were in any mood to concede to all of their demands, our men wouldn't be posted there any more.

We are up against one of the largest military power in the world... and heck, even US hasn't drawn first blood from the Chinese like we have.

It is not over till we officially sign an instrument of surrender, grease up and bend over. This is not a quickie to get over in a couple of minutes.

Can someone locate this place?
its from a larger set.

just some long distance marching exercise in xingjiang involving regular border guards , and some PLA regiment.

this dude has a history of bullshitting , he does it on purpose to fuck with indians.
Tried to match it with PP15 terrain features, this place is definitely not PP15. Some random photos from somewhere else in occupied Tibet.

The latest Pentagon report had noted the People's Liberation Army Navy (PLAN) was now the world's largest navy, “with an overall battle force of approximately 355 ships and submarines, including approximately more than 145 major surface combatants.”

US intelligence believed China was intending to build a “permanent military presence” in the tiny African nation of Equatorial Guinea. Such a facility would be significant as it would give China its first base on the Atlantic Ocean.

This would mean “Chinese warships would be able to rearm and refit opposite the East Coast of the US—a threat that is setting off alarm bells at the White House and Pentagon,” The Wall Street Journal reported.


unlike us and the west , the chinese are playing a entire different game.

One thing I have noticed is China stands to gain from every conflict going on in the world right now.

US will be busy with Russia and the middle east while China expands it's influence.

Pre 9/11 US was focusing it's attention on China but post 9/11 US ignored China.

It's as if they are extremely lucky or their foreign policy vision is top notch.

China is not that nice country we probably thought-German Navy Chief Vice Admiral.
China is giving money to dictators, killers, to criminals as long as long as they give resources to China

For a western military official this guy is talking a lot about politics...Looks like he downed too much Scotch.. thanks to Indian Navy..:daru:
