We’re all gonna die!!!!!!
thought i was reading debka
Is this future fiction? Chinese exports were up something like 40% year over year.
When ruling Indian Government is looking for commission or bribe, they sign defense deals. To sign defense deal they have to start scream first, and then they can divert funds to buy weapons and pocket huge commission.
Just watch for new defense deal during Obama’s visit.
My gosh...
I don’t think I’ve previously seen an article this long that doesn’t have even one factual statement in it.
Why?
Are there too many convenience stores in Beijing?............
I got a headache reading this.
Here are the key parts of the article.
1. Bharat Verma is a leftist POS who loves Obama and is Anti-American.
2. At the same time, Verma is scared that Indian pacifism has made it as vulnerable to China as Poland was to Germany in 1939.
Geopolitically, I don’t think it’s that unreasonable to think China and India will clash. But 2012 seems kind of soon. Plus, how exactly do they clash? The majority, if not all, of their shared borders are impassible mountain ranges.
Bharat Verma is Editor, Indian Defence Review and the author of the book Faultlines.
About us

It not only “prides itself on being a sober, pragmatic, mainstream journal”, but is considered “a premier strategic affairs think-tank” that shapes policies in matters of security and defence industry.

Therefore, the journal, both online and in print, ensure your business grows, irrespective of the market conditions.
So I guess this guy is a serious writer. Interesting take from the Indian “hawks?” I really don’t know internal Indian politics well enough to judge this except as an American. It was interesting to read someone that approves of Obama’s foreign policy. Strange actually.
To me, India is nuclear which makes them a hard target, and prepared for war to a lesser or greater extent with Pakistan. Once again not soft.
I did not know China had such high unemployment. I’ll take him at his word.
Competition would be cheaper in the long run, and they both know it.
And,,,, he loves Obamadinejad’s foreign policy!
I certainly think China would pick a softer target than India for its next round of expansionism.
Right now they are poking at Japan. (which means the U.S.)
I certainly think China would pick a softer target than India for its next round of expansionism.
It won’t be the United States......0bama hasn’t softened us up enough.....yet.
if they want a Falklands War to pump-up morale on the home front then the reconquest of Taiwan would appear to be a much lower-risk operation than provoking a billion Indians to come over the hill at them.
I doubt it seriously. India has nukes and China knows they’d use em.
