>> supported the Tibetan uprising against the Chinese in 1959.

As did the CIA.

Wow, that is some delusional prose. Damn, if I could think like that, I'd have saved a lot of money on beer.

Sounds like a typical ChinaPakiSaudi whore talking.

With maybe some leftover envy/jealousy of the Britishers.

Why don't you come over and spend your next holiday in India? You would probably realize what India is. India is a dirty place from outside barring a few but if you wanna see what stuff Indians are made of you gotta come here and observe our lives. Sure we have our share of idiots and unfortunately we cannot scuffle their voice but that does not mean all Indians castist. Actually most are not. If one thing differentiates us from the rest of the world then it is our 'chalta hai' attitude or in english the sheer cannot care less attitude.

And lastly hope you have got it i just wanna make it clear

WE DON'T WEAR OUR CASTE ON OUR HEAD

and thankfully never did we

Will India be an ally in a war against China?
My answer:- Probably Not. Lets just adopt cold logic. What options do we Indians have?

a) Support the USA in return for the establishment of mutually (USA-India) acceptable regimes in Tibet after liberating it(finally the Dalai Lama gets his land back), Xinjiang (ditto for the Uighur), Myanmar (a proxy province of China..most FDI in Myanmar comes from China)

b) Stay Neutral...the war will be fought anyway. The Chinese will be bombed out with India's secret blessings and best wishes on the American side....this will wean away all investments including Korean, Taiwanese, Japanese, European and American investments by projecting India as a safe investment destination. Kinda play the role of Sweden in the WW-II. Benefit from the Chinese not bombing India out of the planet, provide a safe haven for investors world-wide so that the global economy doesn't take a tumble (which will be the biggest fear in such a great conflict) Provide a place for business to flourish when the world's at war..

My Pick: Choice B. If you were India what would you pick?
