Condolences to the families of the injured and dead.

I hope with misplaced optimism that Indian govt. says enough is enough and goes for just retribution.
I wish for India a bullheaded, unreasonable nationalist PM with b@lls for a while.

Folks I am trying to figure out this MV Suez story from news items. And there are hundreds. I will post a few seemingly relevant ones in order MV Suez with PNS Babur escorting it is enroute to Oman and was expected to reach the port by Saturday. The 22-member crew including six Indians, four Pakist...

Khan, the moment I heard that TSP was securing the release of the crew, I felt the same way you have described. My suspicion grew when PNS Babur suddenly materialized to escort MV Suez. It grew even more when TimesNow interviewed a guy (not Burney) from Pakistan who claimed to have made all arrange...

Austin, From Aesop's Tales the day India decides to stop asking US to get TSP to deliver DI, will be the day they will get DI. It would be naive for us to think US would deliver on Dawood , the only people who would do something to get or kill Dawood is us. Why not send a sqaud and have the rascal ...

The aircraft’s structure was designed with the flexibility to accommodate carrier suitable landing gear, tailhook, drag devices, and other provisions for carrier operations.[7]

To me nationalism means respect for and fondness of one’s own country and its cultural, linguistic and religious ethos. It is a spirit of commonality that connects all of us and makes us think beyond self. It is a sense of pride in your country’s peoples and collective history. Nationalism is a cree...

No point in harping about Indian response to terrorism (or any other problem for that matter).
