Re: Hamas attack.on Israel. Oct 2023
As far as intelligence failures go, this is worse than 9/11. For Hamas to pull off such a complex operation with the scale, demonstrates an impressive level of capability or someone let it happen. However, Hamas have lost the media war in the non-islamic world. None of the western world might interv...

Re: India - Canada - News and Discussion. (2018)
Sudham, Why are you surprised by GoB's reaction? Because you expected that they will roll over? While I'm not doubting your good intentions, the way to get articulate is do your research and make your opinions. Just reading brf is not enough, though it's a good start ;-) But calling us emotional et...

Re: India - Canada - News and Discussion. (2018)
I read somewhere that that was to protect himself from getting sued.
Certainly. But do they have to be spoken about in the national parliament?
I think, more then that comment, it's the location of the comment. Is what is driving the fury of the Indian response to Trudeau.

Re: India - Canada - News and Discussion. (2018)
I think we are responding very emotionally to this in BRF. If I see it from the Canadian PM's PoV, this is brilliant.

Re: Bharat Rakshak Celebrates Seven Years!
I guess it was approx 4 yrs back that i first came across BRF. And I can honestly say I have loaded the BRF URL more times than my yahoo internet account. I stopped looking up info on Indian defence in other sites after they kept referring to material posted in BRF. Keep it up BRF.
