Some answers

http://rupeenews.com/2008/11/30/pakistani-response-to-indias-cold-start-strategy-limited-strikes-against-targets/

I was just reading up on some “cold start strategy” doctrine that was being contemplated by the Indian army to deal with Pakistan. I fumbled upon some news article where a Pakistani Journalist has made a response to the doctrine.

This is my response to his:

What I know as an Indian is that if we do or have to war Pakistan conventional or unconventional-we will win.My forces have shown  that time & again. Twice conventionally and once unconventionally.

I don’t think I need to worry on that front.

 ”Does Pakistan have a Hizbullah type of defense against invasions? Only day dreamers can imagine that this is not so. Pakistan is ready to give Indians Cold Strategy a warm welcome. Crossing Wagah, Sialkot, Ran of Kutch or Kashmir point the Indian army would not only face the Pakistani Army but a very hostile and armed population.”

One, if are our army is  “welcomed” by hostile, armed civilians, do you by any chance still think we will follow the Cold Strategy Approach?? Do you seriously believe that’s the only strategy we would have?

And two, even if it comes to civilians,do you think our soldiers will be without help? (Not that they would need any).If Indian civilians were pressed into it…do you know your civilian will be staring into 7 pairs of eyes..each. Oh yeah! by the way……they’ll be armed and hostile too.

 

Some questions I wish someone answered

1. Where were the bravehearts from Shiv Sena…MNS..Bajrang dal..RSS etc who so gallantly beat the hapless couples spending an  evening by the sea on 14th Feb, when the ultras sieged mumbai? Weren’t they outraged then? or are they “men” only when there is no AK 56 in sight?

2. How did a bullet seep through a bullet proof vest? Why didn’t the authorities ask Karkare to consume poison, lie on the rail track, jump from a sky scraper or hang himself with a noose or shoot himself? they might as well have.

3. Why were my heroes from Mumbai fire stations sent on suicide missions without even bullet proof jacket…even as the terrorists fired from the safety of the plush hotel?

3. Former ISI chief, when told by Arnab on Times Now that ISI hand was being suspected in the attack, he replied  “no I dont think so…they had a role to play in this attack…given the situation it would be very unwise of them to be involved in such an attack..”…wait then are you admitting that under other circumstances it would have been alright…worse are you admitting that ISI has played role in other (note: “not this one”) past attacks under different circumstances (whatever that means)?

4.Does the Kerala CM know that the entire nation would rather have dogs visit their home?  

5. Who is true Muslim? true Hindu? true Christian? is there any other kind?

Just another “Strong Reaction”

My dear countrymen, fear no more. The antidote for terror attacks is here. Its an old weapon, but the latest version is the best and the “strongest” .  It has so far successfully resulted in getting the resignation of a Home Minister, A Chief Minister and public outcry against another CM (who pays belated visits to households of martyrs from his state and then likens non army civilian households to something that even stray dogs wouldn’t visit).

Ladies & Gentlemen I proudly present to you- the latest version of  “Reactions” christened-

~Drum roll please~

 ”Strong Reactions version ∞

Yes we will defend with reactions! Sorry! Strong Reactions version ∞!

You know its different.

At this stage in war against terrorism,when they seem to improve and advance with every attack with their planning..weaponry..modus operandi.We seem to be receding in our ability to even take precautionary or pre-emptive measures. The only thing we seem to be getting better at is the articulation and vocabulary used to condemn these attacks.

So Let them attack us with ak 47s & 56s and we will defend ourselves with “strong reactions”  & “stronger condemnations”  . Let them spray 400 lethal bullets per minute indiscriminately at us for 60 hours…punctuate their onslaughts with grenades and we’ll lob at them “strongest reactions so far”.

Some where north west of Kashmir the walls of  Bora caves must be echoing with roaring laughter.Simply put-a terrorist some where must be laughing his ass off.

First we make ourselves sitting ducks…and then quack after being smacked.When they turned couple of American planes into missiles…Americans said “you wanna play missiles-missiles, okay we’ll oblige” and boy! did they oblige- they showered missiles at them like out of control meteors determined to set earth on blaze-now thats reaction!

And what do we say-”you have ak 56s ..bring them on…we have strong reactions”.

It has just become so convinient to react between attacks…only if we could act once before…hell maybe just once after.

Just another strong reaction.
