Re: Artillery Corps: News & Discussion

A section of IA decison makers were advancing the idea that India should buy from a production line outside India as a hedge against PLA destroying Indian mfg facilities! Surely this was not taken seriously. More than one production facility was planned from the beginning. And if they think the one...

IMO that is what we are seeing. If the Canada PM wants to go support a designated terrorist, why would India take it any other way than what is stated at face value. Doesn't really matter how Nijjar met his end. For that matter JT may well have walked into a trap.
