There is never, ever, any push back from the temples targeted with these types of vile, coordinated misinformation attacks by the Left-Islamist nexus. Be it BAPS Mandir in New Jersey (accused of bringing "low caste" construction workers to the US as slave labour— the "accusers" l...

Did Trump literally say "Ukraine is losing lots of soldiers... people are saying they lost seventy-eleven soldiers last week"

Rudradev

And the first highest leadership award (position, rather) with a promotion to Failed Marshal.

Rudradev

My bet: EU will NOT impose sanctions or tariffs on India. 1) They want access to India's markets, and to fill an emerging space that America will be locked out of by India-imposed reciprocal tariffs. 2) They realise that such actions against India will have no effect at all on Putin's intentions reg...

Jai Hind, Jai Bharat!

Rudradev

There is no strategic partnership for India with the US possible for the next few decades; everything will be transactional. I know some people say that "just wait three and a half years and then we can put this behind us". No, we can't. Trump is merely one particular virulent manifestati...

Rudradev

One of the things to understand about India-US relations and how much US values its relationship with India is that US still does not have an Ambassador for India after 6 months of the TanTrump administration. A lot of nominations are languishing in the senate as the Dems are conducting a non-coope...

Rudradev

I think India should employ and eu strategy. Seemingly give him a win but impose massive tarriffs or other barriers at state level . As far as milk products are concerned 1) American milk won't sell in India . It's yucky . Chai made from it tastes weird . 2) local psy-ops about cow eating beef . 3)...

Rudradev

I think the Europeans will eventually join US and put secondary sanctions on us. Isolating Russia did not work. They are unable to isolate China. They will try isolating India next. How many countries will stand with us? Will Russia stand with us? Will China? China stood with Russia because they kn...

Rudradev

The obsessive overemphasis on Ambani, Adani, "oligarchs" etc makes one thing abundantly clear— Pappu Congress, Pakistan, and the Trump administration are all singing from one and the same book when it comes to India. Can't imagine this is happening without intense coordination.

Rudradev

EU tariffs are like Swiss cheese. Even if EU as a whole does decide to impose tariffs (which I doubt), the 27 individual nations can each agree to whatever carve-outs and exemptions make the most sense for them, and the impact will be minimal if any.

It also makes the point for me that one could have a mountain of ore somewhere, but the lack of water could make it not economically viable. A problem to recovering that oil is that the process uses a lot of water I am told - water which is getting increasingly in short supply in Pakistan and on wh...

Rudradev

Reko Dik sounds like something Donald Trump caught from Stormy Daniels.

Rudradev

“Rely” for defense, never. “Rely” as in having reliable economic and technology partnerships that don’t change on a whim is important. Changing on a whim is actually the Achilles Heel of the current US administration. It would be nice if Trump could be induced to lean into his trademark capriciousn...

Rudradev

Make no mistake. Pakistan has nothing with which it can hit India anywhere, north south east or west. Even Sirsa, as we saw, is too far "east" for them. Whatever hits targets in India once Sindoor Part 2 begins is going to be supplied, and quite possibly operated, by the US (likely CENTCOM...

Rudradev

What oil baba? Some natural gas (Sui reserves) is there in Balochistan— not enough for export or even Paki domestic energy needs, but at least it exists. Where is this fantastic trove of oil deposits coming from? If it was there at all, wouldn't the Chinese have discovered and exploited it during th...

Rudradev

America designates the Balochistan Liberation Army and Majeed Brgade as a Foreign Terrorist Organisation. This means India can potentially be accused of sponsoring terrorism if shown to be connected to the BLA. Not even in the worst periods of the Clinton, Bush, or Obama presidencies was there this...

Rudradev

Pakistan wants a war with India on predefined terms that it can "win"— to demonstrate recovery of H&D, gain political capital for Failed Marshal & TSPA domestically, and elevate Pakistan's profile as an India-hyphenated "rival" internationally. As Prem Kumar noted, the US...

Rudradev

Sure. Generally with this Engle Matrix format, the idea is that players (and non-player members on this forum) all take an objective stance to evaluate the reasons for/against an action's success at achieving the outcome... so it's like collaborative umpiring. But it would be great to have Ramana ga...

Scenario 1.1 GOI 1) Action: uses domestic political capital to avoid an immediate reaction, saying India will investigate the incident and retaliate at a time and place of its choosing as always. 2) Intended Outcome: buys time (up to 60 days) for tumultuous political realignments to stabilize and In...

Agreed @AGupta. No "Deep State" references in the wargame. We have to state precisely whom we mean in any instance. Ok, so here goes. We start with Aug 15, 2025, and all prevailing conditions remain the same as they are now. Pakistan carries out another high-visibility massacre of Hindus i...

Rudradev

In all seriousness, play out this scenario. Another Paki terrorist provocation (inevitably) comes, and India restarts the 'paused' Op Sindoor. How does the US react? Does it join (to whatever extent) the alliance of Pakistan, PRC & Turkey ranged against India the last time? Does the Trump regime...

Rudradev

Let me be very clear. I am not saying that the US initiated and backed the Pahalgam attack as part of some labyrinthine deep state conspiracy to start an India Pakistan war. I am saying that Pakistan army/ISI planned and executed it themselves this April because they calculated the risk of an Indian...

There are two levels to this conflict. One is the slowly-unfolding, geopolitical "Thucidydes Trap" conflict which has always existed between India and the US, intensifying since 2014— a struggle of complex machinations, intricate balancing, and multi-dimensional relationship management. Th...

Anand Ranganathan: negotiate with Russia to discount oil sales to the same levels as they offered in 2022-23 (about 24%). India has proved its loyal friendship by standing up for them under pressure.

Just to point out that India misread its relationship with Trump’s America: The government has already reduced duties on imports of U.S. motorcycles, bourbon, ethernet switches, synthetic flavoring essences and fish hydrolysate, to name a few. It has also allowed Tesla to set up shop in Mumbai and ...

We should let Trump make a fool of himself and destroy his reputation. We should simply target his/his minions personal business and not target America. Hit him where is hurts the most. Speaking of this— there are 6 new Trump Tower projects coming up in Mumbai, Pune, Noida, Hyderabad, Bengaluru &am...

Modi has invested personally in building relationships around the world for the sake of realizing India's economic potential. His schedule of visits to foreign capitals and summits has been tireless. Trump has ensured that a good part of that effort, especially as regards Modi's projections for Indi...

Rudradev

India cannot, and will not, make the slightest concession to the US. Trump has made 100% sure of that with his approach. Unless there is a total 180 from Washington, it's either go with RIC or go it alone as an aspiring pole... eating whatever inevitable economic losses and slowdowns this may entail...

Rudradev

At this point, only the “Deep State”, if it exists, can rescue the India-US relationship. No one in the Trump administration is willing to contradict him, unlike his first term. I was listening to a Department of State press briefing, and the spokeslady said, paraphrase, I can only represent Marco ...
