Abhimanyu (Mon Jun 14 1999 5:53 IST)
CAPT. GANESH, IF AFTER 40 Yrs. IAF HAS NO CARPET BOMBERS, THEN THIS DOES NOT PRESENT A GOOD IMAGE.

Indian (Mon Jun 14 1999 5:49 IST)
USAF .. yeah yeah .. go ahead .. blame the Russkies .. when it is the US Arms manufacturers that 'manufcture' ALL confrontations in the world .. the private joke about the BOMBS on Yugoslavia is that the US actually used up ALL their non-Y2K-compliant ammo there .. so that they could claim to be 100% Y2K compliant!!

senthil (Mon Jun 14 1999 5:49 IST)
Hello sir first of all let me salute the true indian in war front wiil you convey our good wishes to our jambawans in war frront

USAFKicksButt (Mon Jun 14 1999 5:49 IST)
Abhimanyu>For carpet bombing, you need carpet bombers......they dont have that kinda weapon system out there, plus they are gonna run out of bombs in like two and a half days if they try that kinda deal...thats why its called the third world

someone (Mon Jun 14 1999 5:57 IST)
Sir, is it possible that we have decide to take some strategic areas like skardu this time. So pakistan cannot repeat these misadventures.

senthil (Mon Jun 14 1999 5:57 IST)
SIR IS THERE A CHANCE FOR WAR HOPE INDIA WIIL NEVER MAKE THAT MOVE FIRST

USAFKicksButt (Mon Jun 14 1999 5:57 IST)
Injun>Yeah, I came here to listen to the Group Capt. You are right.

Rohit Varma (Mon Jun 14 1999 5:58 IST)
Indian: and YOU have the audacity to call yourself an INDIAN?

SumitB (Mon Jun 14 1999 5:58 IST)
How experienced are our fighter pilots in the current operation? Is it that all youngsters flying the fighter planes? How many flying hours experience does Flt Lt Nachiketa have ?

DDM (Mon Jun 14 1999 5:59 IST)

USAFKicksButt (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:3 IST)
Gp.Capt>Why are you fighting the war per the intruder's agenda? why not cut off their communications and kill them in their staging areas? If you dont watch out with those politician bunglers, you will have the same untenable situation that our boys faced in Nam-Viet. Death to all politicians silly bunglers, long live the Military.

senthil (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:6 IST)

Rohit Varma (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:13 IST)

Rohit Varma (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:15 IST)
hotting up? of course. What with an ex Indian who calls himself USAF kicks Butt and an Indian who does not want to be called and Indian and feigns not to be one.

USAFKicksButt (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:15 IST)
Group Capt>I thought I read in Jane's that you folks had Frogfoots? I dont see any mention of their being in action, if you do have them....perhaps I am mistaken....or are you all holding back on most of your assets?

Ranga (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:18 IST)
Group Captain D Ganesh: altogether how many intruders are there in Kargil, Drass and Batalik. And why not Indian army produce some of their dead bodies to us?

Samar (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:18 IST)
Capt. Ganesh, what is the extent of the paki infiltration in ladakh?

someone (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:18 IST)

Rohit Varma (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:19 IST)
No wonder we face what we face today. Defence Drunks at 7.00 in the evening. I can see why there was a military intelligence (whats that?????) snafu

Naveen (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:19 IST)
Hello Captain,Since childhood we have been listning that India has a far superior Air Force/Army as against Pak,but now my feelings have changed,pl don't link this issue with patriotism rather be fair and just and not a hippocrate like our politicians,dont u think its been too long to get our own territory back,what's going to happen if Pak stages a full scale war

sanjeevi (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:19 IST)

Abhmanyu (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:22 IST)
CAPT. GANESH, ISN'T IT TIME THAT PERMANET CONCRETE BUNKERS WERE SET UP, INSTEAD OF MAKESHIFT POSTS???

Sanjai Kukreti (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:22 IST)
Captain, why has India not used Fuel-Air Explosives on the militant-infested area, instead of wasting the lives of Indian army jawans?

Indian (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:22 IST)
Rohit .. shush dude .. you're a bloody disgrace to this rediff chat ..

Samar (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:22 IST)
Capt. Ganesh, since the intercepted paki conversation shows they shot down our copter over indian territory, should we start bombing their training camps and other sites in PoK?

Rohit Varma (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:22 IST)
Excuse me but this is not exactly the time to sip your darned half breed gimlets

shame (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:22 IST)
Group Captain D Ganesh: Don't you think it's a shame that our armymen could not stay in winter whereas those intruders could do?

vagra (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:22 IST)
what is this rohit

Indian (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:22 IST)
Sajnai K .. Welcome dude!! From CNN to here eh??

Seema (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:23 IST)
Sir,I mean other means as... Would we need a full scale WAR to escalate such a sitiuation or will the current interface solve the purpose, Are we in touch with the other European Countries and Russ-US for if need be under the WAR circumstanses do we calculate any support atleast in terms of words ,though we pledge to fight this war alone. But this current condition in the World their is defenitly a way for any of the Outside force to intervene. How are our calculations presently.

USAFKicksButt (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:23 IST)
Rohit>Please behave.It is one thing for you to speak ill of the Injun and I, for which we ignore your comments. It is another for you to talk of defence drunks. Please do not shame yourself by talking ill of the people who are defending your sorry little backside. You owe them all an apology and your eternal gratitude

USAFKicksButt (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:25 IST)
Injun> We gotta talk about the chat format. We dont want the Gr. Capt to be exposed to that kinda drivel, dude...later? on the other chat?

Abhmanyu (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:25 IST)

Neekhil (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:26 IST)
Group Captain, while we are at it why don't we bomb the terrorist training camps in P.O.K.

diwakar deshpande (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:26 IST)

CAPT. GANESH, IS THERE A POSTAL ADDRESS TO COMMUNICATE WITH YOU DIRECTLY??

baaz (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:28 IST)
mega i feel it is very much true

Indian (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:28 IST)
ROhit .. in that case you're a disgrace to the uniform .. get out .. and learn to be a TRUE Indian ..

USAFKicksButt (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:28 IST)
Inj>You know the A10, which our guys hate, cause its so low tech and no self respecting USAF pilot is gonna be seen dead near one? well, the Russkies got their own version, called the Frogfoot. I thought the IAF had bought some. I see some people want to launch nuclear tipped SRBMs at the infiltrators (Darn thing is gonna land in India, fer crissakes!!! heh heh). I wondered if the IAF had any Frogfoots to go after them, is all....just idle small talk

Abhmanyu (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:29 IST)
CAPT. GANESH, I WISH TO PRODUCE A MOVIE ON INDAIN ARMY, WHOM CAN I CONTACT FOR GETTING COOPERATION???

Indian (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:29 IST)
Captain: Another question. Could we have better pictures and maps of the local area and terrain so that people worldwide have a BETTER idea about the ddifficulty in what India is attempting? And why they 'gentleman's' agreement was that the posts would be unmanned in Winter?

sona (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:29 IST)
hello sir

baaz (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:29 IST)
u bum i know more than what u know about the army from ousite it. I know it left , right and center

Sanjai Kukreti (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:30 IST)
Captain, it's being said that the invaders have built helipads on our side of the line of Control. Clearly this indicates Pakistani army involvement. Likewise, their own policymakers have been caught on tape. Why isn't India targetting Pakistani army positions more widely, instead confining the conflict on Pakistan's terms?

Rohit Varma (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:30 IST)
Indian I am rather tired of your god forsaken condescending attitude. If anyone is wasting his time on this chat, it is me. And not smelly farts like you and your equally obnoxious friend

Seema (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:30 IST)
Pak has killed so many indian army personnel, have pushed their own miltary into India as infiltrators, tried attempt on PM's life. When the world knows of Paks mis-doings why are we not giving them a firm( miltary ) reply?? Even if the infiltrators out of India as demanded by PM, they can always come back. What is the long term plan to stop these infiltrators???

mega (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:30 IST)
DEAR MR. CAPTAIN: Why is INDIA not retalitating for mutilation of bodies of Indian soldiers?

vagra (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:30 IST)
where did u serve in the army( was it Pakistan)

baaz (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:30 IST)
What were u doing there by the way

Naveen (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:30 IST)
ARE WE FIGHTING FOR OURSELVES OR FOR U.S.A????MAN BE MATURE AND TAKE UR OWN DECISIONS,SOMETIMES I FEEL WE ARE STILL SLAVES??WHY DO WE DO ALL THINKS SO AS TO DRAW WORLD'S ATTENTION OR TO APPEASE THEM??ARE WE JOKERS

sona (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:32 IST)
First of all I would like to salute all jawans who are in the front fighting for our motherland and us.

baaz (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:32 IST)
Hello sir, u have not replied to my earlier question regarding Sukhoi's being used in this Operation Vijay

mega (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:32 IST)
Seema: agree with you 100%. I think Indian political leadership is a stick in the mud.

Samar (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:16 IST)
are you there, capt. ganesh?

siachen (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:7 IST)
i'd know better than anybody..old man!

USAFKicksButt (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:8 IST)
Injun>Negatory on ICQ, pal, remember the Mossad? Hey, guess what, we got a good kill on THAAD two days ago. We launched our weapon and it ignored counter measures and had a direct hit on the target missile...its kinda like hitting a bullet fired from a gun with another bullet, only everything is like 40X faster. This was the second kill, so its no fluke. You can sleep sound, son, them rag-heads not gonna be able to whack us with one off nukes soon

someone (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:8 IST)
Sir, this may sound as a crazy idea. But can India request pakistan permission to fly over POK airspace in order to have a more effective strike capability on the mountains. Pakistan does not acknowledge the existence of the intruders.

senthil (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:8 IST)
HEY PATRIOT THATS RIGHT OUR'S IS A STORNGEST FORCE IN THE WORLD RESCUEING IS NOT A MATTER IS'NT IT

USAFKicksButt (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:8 IST)
Group>Roger Uncle Mike

Seema (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:3 IST)
Sir, Do you have an estimate how long we would have to take this kind of escalation under a

USAFKicksButt (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:3 IST)
Inj>LOL@Fortunately

Indian (Mon Jun 14 1999 5:55 IST)
USAF .. why do you even bother to respond to people like Rohit?

mahesh (Mon Jun 14 1999 5:55 IST)
Sir, i want to what exactly when this war will end

Abhimanyu (Mon Jun 14 1999 5:56 IST)
CAPT. GANESH. I ALWAYS WONDERED WHY COMMANDOS WERE NOT ISSUED BODY ARMOR LIKE US NAVY SEALS/DELTA FORCE??

Rohit Varma (Mon Jun 14 1999 5:56 IST)
Confirms Butt. You are the moron with his alleged superiority chip all over your big butt. A "GIVE THEM CAKE IF THEY DONT HAVE BREAD" kind of guy would talk that way. But I still would like to know where u live. It would seem that you are the kind of self opinionated jerk who has overdosed on a flick like TOP GUN!

Indian (Mon Jun 14 1999 5:56 IST)
mahesh .. umm .. you would do better to consult an astrologer ... the CORRECT answer to it is 'when we get the last intruder' ;-)

Patriot (Mon Jun 14 1999 5:57 IST)
Capt. Sir. why is the Indian PR sooo bad. Pakistan army took the whole world media to our downed Mig-27. If we are claiming that we have "incontrovertible" evidence that Pakistan is behind this whole mess, then why not show it to CNN, BBC and others.. I think you, the military should take the initiative in this regard.

Patriot (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:4 IST)
Senthil.. we can't "rescue them" because our politicians don't have the balls for it.. Leave it our brave defence forces and they'll "rescue" it in a jiffy

siachen (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:4 IST)
well rohit, rubbing a few up the wrong side are you? hello there!

senthil (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:4 IST)
SIR DO WE HAVE HELICOP'S HAVING ABILITY TO FLY IN NIGHT

USAFKicksButt (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:4 IST)
Injun>You got Thor active or no?

Rohit Varma (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:4 IST)
Anyway Cappie, I hope you have a good time answering Ghost Rider. He is a rather self opinionated first rate boor. Have fun.

Indian (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:5 IST)
USAF .. nope .. in fact the OTHER chat server appears dead .. remember my vain pleas to you to activate your ICQ??

USAFKicksButt (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:5 IST)
Gp.Capt>LOL @ Nobody's perfect

Indian (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:5 IST)
USAF .. in any case Thor cannot be used in this chat format ..

Aakansha (Mon Jun 14 1999 5:49 IST)
Captain: There was some concern about Flt Lt Nachiketa's ability to fly again. Is there a cause for concern about this?

USAFKicksButt (Mon Jun 14 1999 5:50 IST)
Injun>ROTFL @Y2K

Indian (Mon Jun 14 1999 5:50 IST)
:-)

Patriot (Mon Jun 14 1999 5:50 IST)
Capt. Sir. why is the Indian PR sooo bad. The Pakis take the whole world media to our downed Mig-27. If we are claiming that we have "incontrovertible" evidence that Pakistan is behind this whole mess, then why not show it to CNN, BBC and others.. I think the military should take the initiative in this regard.

USAFKicksButt (Mon Jun 14 1999 5:51 IST)
Inj>Is that why one of our cruise missiles went after the Romanians? cause it thought it was like 1914? First World War??

Rohit Varma (Mon Jun 14 1999 5:51 IST)
Just one question BUTT: Where do you live?

John (Mon Jun 14 1999 5:51 IST)
Down With Pakistan!! Cowards!! put on your uniforms and face us if you dare!!

USAFKicksButt (Mon Jun 14 1999 5:59 IST)
10 Lakhs is a good amount. It is fair. Are there airmen who are on Flying duties? or do ground personnel get 5 lakhs each?

someone (Mon Jun 14 1999 5:59 IST)
Sir do we have a long term plan and direction for the defence of India. Has the National defence Council evolved a doctrine in this regard.

Indian (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:0 IST)
Rohit .. you are absolutely right .. I am NOT an Indian .. just an American :-)

Abhimanyu (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:0 IST)
CAPT. GANESH. WHY ARE PARATROOPERS NOT BEING USED IN MASSIVE NUMBERS?? WHY SEND ONLY SMALL UNITS TO BE SLAUGHTERED???

USAFKicksButt (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:0 IST)
Inj>Can we send PMs in this chat format?

Indian (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:9 IST)
Captain Sir: Another IMPORTANT question comes to mind. With our forces so distracted with the intruders on the Kargil front, how prepared are we on other fronts? How about any aggresive bahaviour from China? What about the ULFA militants?

Rohit Varma (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:9 IST)
Old Man??? B1 West M'pally?

Rohit Varma (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:10 IST)
of course it is How can I forget the name. SIACHEN???

Patriot (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:10 IST)
Good point someone.. If Pakistan is a friendly country as it tried to portray itself, and if they are really "Kashmiri freedom fighters" and if that is India's own problem, it should have no objection to lending us it's air space

siachen (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:11 IST)
rohit: taking rather long to catch on are'nt you...age catching up...old man??

Aakansha (Mon Jun 14 1999 5:52 IST)
Sir, can u tell us what kind of aircraft are being used in Operation Vijay?

USAFKicksButt (Mon Jun 14 1999 5:52 IST)
All non-nuclear weapons are, by definition, chemical weapons, unless you all talking about knives and teeth and like that....

Rohit Varma (Mon Jun 14 1999 5:52 IST)
HEy John dont get melodramatic will ya.

USAFKicksButt (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:15 IST)
Group Capt>I thought I read in Jane's that you folks had Frogfoots? I don't see any mention of their being in action, if you do have them....perhaps I am mistaken....or are you all holding back on most of your assets?

Abhmanyu (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:16 IST)
CAPT. GANESH, WHY ARE INFANTRY UNITS CLIMBING THE PEAKS NOT PROVIDED SUPPORT FROM HELI GUNSHIPS? IS THIS A CASE OF SIMPLE OVERSIGHT?

Ranga (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:18 IST)
Group Captain D Ganesh: Altogether how many intruders are there in Kargil, Drass and Batalik. And why doesn't Indian army produce some of their dead bodies to us?

Samar (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:18 IST)
Capt. Ganesh, what is the extent of the Paki infiltration in Ladakh?

someone (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:18 IST)
Sir, why can't we use surface-to-surface missiles to pound the intruders.

Are we in a position to win a war against Pak ? How long will it take ?

Naveen (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:19 IST)
Hello Captain,Since childhood we have been listening that India has a far superior Air Force/Army as against Pak, but now my feelings have changed. Don't u think its taken far too long to get our own territory back. What's going to happen if Pak stages a full-scale war

Abhmanyu (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:22 IST)
CAPT. GANESH, ISN'T IT TIME THAT PERMANENT CONCRETE BUNKERS WERE SET UP, INSTEAD OF MAKESHIFT POSTS???

vagra (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:22 IST)
Gp capt ; why was Mirage used in this operation ?

Sanjai Kukreti (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:22 IST)
Captain, why has India not used Fuel-Air Explosives on the militant-infested area, instead of wasting the lives of Indian army jawans?

Samar (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:22 IST)
Capt. Ganesh, since the intercepted Paki conversation shows they shot down our copter over Indian territory, should we start bombing their training camps and other sites in PoK?

Group Captain D Ganesh: Don't you think it's a shame that our armymen could not stay in winter whereas those intruders could do?

CAPT. GANESH, THERE IS NO ELECTRICITY IN THESE REGIONS, EVEN AFTER 40 YRS. OF SELF-RULE .

Neekhil (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:26 IST)
Group Captain, while we are at it why don't we bomb the terrorist training camps in PoK.

CAPT. GANESH, I WISH TO PRODUCE A MOVIE ON INDAIN ARMY, WHOM CAN I CONTACT FOR GETTING COOPERATION???

Indian (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:29 IST)
Captain: Another question. Could we have better pictures and maps of the local area and terrain so that people worldwide have a BETTER idea about the difficulty in what India is attempting? And why the agreement was that the posts would be unmanned in Winter?

Sanjai Kukreti (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:30 IST)
Captain, it's being said that the invaders have built helipads on our side of the Line of Control. Clearly, this indicates Pakistani army involvement. Likewise, their own policy makers have been caught on tape. Why isn't India targeting Pakistani army positions more widely, instead confining the conflict on Pakistan's terms?

Seema (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:30 IST)
Pak has killed so many Indian army personnel, have pushed their own miltary into India as infiltrators, tried attempt on PM's life. When the world knows of Pak's mis-doings why are we not giving them a firm (miltary) reply?? Even if the infiltrators go out of India as demanded by PM, they can always come back. What is the long-term plan to stop these infiltrators???

DEAR MR. CAPTAIN: Why is INDIA not retaliating for mutilation of bodies of Indian soldiers?

Sir, is it not high time for our army to occupy the Pok

USAF .. the OTHER chat server is STILL down .. I'm gonna keep this window up for a while .. OK?

Sanjai Kukreti (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:36 IST)
Indian: The fact is that the US will try and apply pressure wherever it sees weakness. India should show resolve, and thus compel the US to apply pressure not on India, but on Pakistan. Because Pakistan is the belligerent anyway. We have to be firm in reminding everyone of that.

See you there Ghost Rider

Indian (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:39 IST)
Sanjai .. Sure .. but the resolve .. sometimes is translated into stupid statements from our inexperienced politicians .. which forces us to eat crow. UNTIL the lates muck up .. Pakistan showed that they were masterful in their use of the US media .. Even now Benazir is the one that got quoted on NY TImes Op-Ed .. not ABV !!

Koppana (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:41 IST)
Is there anyone ????

Sanjai Kukreti (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:42 IST)
It's not simply a matter of Pakistan making better use of the media. The fact is that a lot of the Western media are biased towards Pakistan.

megaa (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:42 IST)
hello!

megaa (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:44 IST)
Sanjali: Why do you think the Western media are biased towards Pak?? BBC, CNN all have given headlines to Paki claims of chemical weapons. Attempt to kill Vajapayee is nowhere to be seen??? whats up????

Indian (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:46 IST)
Sanjai .. ummm .. biased? .. Is there some innate love affair? let us get real .. India needs to get off it;s high horse .. get REAL about their position in the pecking order .. and STOP thinking that they are the conscience of the world. One thing we CAN DEFINITELY do .. STOP going against USA JUST because it is the US .. and in many other cases just be neutral. THAT is all the US wants ..

Abhmanyu (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:46 IST)
HELLO EVERYONE> POINTING FINGERS AT PAK AND USA WILL NOT HELP. I AM GLAD THAT THIS HAPPENED. IT HAS EXPOSED THE CRACKS IN THE INDIAN ARMOUR AND ALSO SHOWN THE INCOMPETENCE OF THOSE IN COMMAND.

Indian (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:47 IST)
Abhmanyu .. right on .. the so-called infallible Indian defense forces were really caught snoozing .. Nice way to get a wake up call ..

Sanjai Kukreti (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:47 IST)
megaa: The "Western" (ie. caucasian) media are biased towards Pakistan, because the govts over there want to retain Pak's help in grabbing Central Asia for themselves. Furthermore, the "Westerners" are upset at India for challenging their monopoly on nukes, and will use any event to arm-twist Indian to give up its national security.

Abhmanyu (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:48 IST)
BYE EVERYONE. IT IS TIME FOR INTROSPECTION AS A NATION AND NOT FINGER POINTING.

megaa (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:49 IST)
India in terms of military capabilites, deeply stuck to Russia. that means, anti-usa in most geo-sitations. India has to self-relient on defence needs.

Indian (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:49 IST)
Sanjai .. stop trying to make the Western media (and the Western powers) so EVIL. They are manipulatable .. and India just needs to learn HOW. India should get out the 'innocent victim' complex. And grow up. And learn the real-politik of dealing with Western powers.

Maneesh (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:50 IST)
Do you think that the Indian government in its present state and with a distinct lack of support will be able to take a firm decision? If at all it comes to an all out war, will it have the nerve to carry on? I don't think so. There is a lack of political will since 15th August 1947. And will no doubt continue...

Indian (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:51 IST)
Sanjai .. We need to publicise the IAF personnel on chat .. on CN message boards .. this guy is actually answering questions realistically .. don't ya think?

Sanjai Kukreti (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:51 IST)
"Indian": No, why don't you get real? Haven't you been paying attention to what the US has been saying to India?? Stop being a Tom, or a Gunga Din. They were telling us that the Shimla Accord is irrelevant at one point. They were telling us that Pak should no longer be held to its obligations by us. Use your head, man. We can't sit there, and let others give us the shaft.

megaa (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:51 IST)
Sanjai: about nukes. Even China challenged their monopoly. It is shocking to see chemicals weapons claim on BBC. The headlines just says 'India used chemical weapon' as if it were a fact. only finer footprints say that it was a paki claim. As far as India is concerned, it is india for itself.

Maneesh (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:52 IST)
What we need is a first-strike option like Israel. Crush them if they dare to raise their heads again...

Sanjai Kukreti (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:54 IST)
Indian: The fact is that the "Western" media are corrupt, and rife with cronyism. They aren't equal opportunity people, willing to open their ears equally to accept arguments from just anyone. They are pursuing their own political cronyism. That's real life. They're corrupt, they're biased, and they're back to playing the old colonial games again.

megaa (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:55 IST)
Indian: "need to publicise IAD personnel" what do you mean? elaborate please???

Indian (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:56 IST)
megaa .. I meant that we need to get the word out that IAF personnel are available on chat to answer questions.. That;s all!

megaa (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:57 IST)
Western media being corrupt. They are trying to take care of western interests. We got to take care of ours and not rely on western anything. UN,WTO, all inventions are to further western interests.

Sanjai Kukreti (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:58 IST)
megaa: China is grudgingly accepted by the West as part of the nuclear club. And only grudgingly. Meantime, the cunning "moralists" in the West spend their time using the Tiananmen and democracy issues to keep China under seige. But back when Tiananmen actually happened, the Americans went out of their way to keep quiet about it. These moral chameleons in the West like to change their colors very quietly and fluidly, to make their hypocritical flip-flops less obvious to the world.

megaa (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:58 IST)
Indian: you mean to make readers less dependent on western media?? good idea... hats off to rediff.

Indian (Mon Jun 14 1999 6:58 IST)
Sanjai .. umm .. colonial games eh? .. To me it seems they ruled Pakistan for as long as they ruled India. Never mind. That is a bit on inconvenience that sorta trashes the theory. In any case, the facts of the matter are as follows: China manipulates public opinion as well as does Pakistan. The minions in India don;t seem to realise this. They still think they can be righteous. Bottom line: The Western media do NOT like to be treated like s**t. Hey, pandering a little to the Western media is OK .. as long as the point of view is publicised! That is, unfortunately, the way things are. If you don;t like it, bad luck! Watch the 'enemies' steal the headlines. Live and learn, I say - even if it from your enemy.
