and how easily the congis have forgotten this

Image


so, every kumar, gowda and ghandy is assuming that somebody has thought them important enough to spend 48++ lakhs per phone to bug his/her phone

wouldn't be be way way cheaper and definitely more entertaining to hack rajkundra's phone on the cheap using the local neighboorhood salim bhai's "services" and watch p0rn virtually for free



There are reports that the Pegasus software works on a per license basis and it costs an exorbitant amount.

As per a 2016 report, NSO charges a flat 500,000 USD (more than Rs 3.72 crores at current exchange rate) for installing Pegasus.

For a government agency, the price was USD 650,000 (more than Rs 4.84 crores) for 10 iPhones.

That is over Rs 48 lakhs for one phone.

And these are 2016 prices.


and on top of all that, the company should be willing to sell you the pegasus because they surely will not sell to any and every aira gaira nathu khaira, roadside loafer types like kumars, gowdas, and ghandys

the israelis are far too clever and cautious to get mixed up in local political intrigues in India, where they have far too much at stake and if caught, a humongous amount of business opportunities to lose.



Image


or have these aira gairas even considered amnesty's lies and propaganda that have been so easily exposed

Everyone knows what’s going on and how desperate these guys are to pull Modi down.
“Amnesty, and the investigative journalists and media outlets they work with have made clear from the outset in very clear language that this is a list of numbers marked as numbers of interest to NSO customers” – meaning they are the kind of ppl NSO clients might like to spy on

Kujliwal's jokes/drama just became a bit more serious:

“A statement given in a consciously held press conference, in the background of the lockdown announced due to the pandemic and the mass exodus of migrant labourers, cannot be simply overlooked. Proper governance requires the government to take a decision on the assurance given by the CM, and inaction on the same cannot be the answer,” the court said in its 89-page verdict.


In a democratic setup, persons who hold an elected office and especially heads of government, heads of State and those holding responsible positions are expected to make responsible assurances to their citizens, especially in times of crisis and distress,” the court said.


HC says Delhi CM has to pay the rent to cover landlords when the tenant is going through covid-19 hardships. Funny we have to teach a CM to keep a publicly announced promise.

here is a coconut. basically she is a dilli university history major and all that it implies. Her rise indicates some sort of influential family connection to the powers that be. brookings, is a old age home for darbari Indian and paki foreign service and congi NSA types

she may be an ameriki citizen but inconsequential tanvi seems to be a moralizing and schoolmarmish thinktanki groupie who arrogantly thinks nothing of talking down to a country as big as India.

they all want Modi gone and someone purchasable and pliable to be nominated to the PM's gaddi. A man with such a massive electoral mandate may be very uncomfortable for them to understand or handle. tin pot dictators niazi, bajwa, saudi princes, gelf oil sheiks and such other despots may be more their style

the amerikis (presently) seek out India's "partnership" only out of self-interest and that is how it has always been with any other country too, be it the uk, canada, australia, SL, nepal and maldives.

To make the case that US's current "partnership" with India is some sort of "reward for Indian good behavior" is, extremely far fetched.

the US has interests like any global player and India happens to serve some of those interests in this region. The US's interests are bound to change as the global narrative changes and they will move on without a backward glance as they have done in afghanistan.

Conscience and morality do not play any significant part in the realpolitik's realm.

Interests and the opportunity to profit either in tangible terms or in having a significant say in setting a regional, or even at times, the global narrative is what motivates them.

and as far as authoritarianism goes, in which continent has the US refrained from its agenda of regime change. Is the CIA a welfare organisation or one that murders, renditions and tortures opponents in black sites.

Sounds like ground is being prepared by the Biden admin to crawl back into China's arms, but they need an honourable explanation to give to their idiotic public that believes that it freely voted for freedom and bravery.

India should not worry.
Amreekis lost more than 6000 soldiers to TAliban, several 1000s more wounded and maimed by them, and then eventually struck a deal with the same barbaric primitive beasts.
We are ok. The course we take is our own and devoid of Guantanamos, Hiroshimas, colonial plunder, oil loot, destruction of Irag and devoid of regime-change wars.

Oh and Tanvi Madan should be a lot more subtle. She does come across a little too raw with her words, a tad too desperate and trying to be bow a little too sincerely.

There is growing concern in New Delhi that if the US doesn’t change course from making deals with fundamentalist terrorists such as the Taliban, funding terror supporters such as Pakistan, and engaging in regime change around the world it’s going to be harder to make the differentiation why a partnership with the US is of value when trying to deal with an authoritarian China, an Indian official told me in light of the worsening situation in Afghanistan and the shambles and continued loss of life in Iraq and Libya.

Please post the above in response. It is far more plausible from any logical standpoint.

Besides you cannot really count on a “superpower” that could not defeat the Taliban after 20 years to fight with China. They will dump their allies when it matters most.

The Brown Sahiba in her mid-year performance review was asked by the boss to justify her title and her position at Brookings.
So what does she do? Produce the insane equal-equal theory/equation of Modi's India vs Authoritarian china.

Interesting that when you research Tanvi Madan's name the other profiles that come up as of possible interest were poisonous psuedo scumbags like: Vipin Narang, Sadanand Dhume, Shivshankar Menon and Vaishnav.

There's also pattern that when such superpowers leave or cut corners , they leave dictatorial bigots ex. Shah of Iran, Gaddafi, Saddam, Lukashenko, Ayub, etc to name a few.

What follows is decades of assault on freedom parameters and rights.
In strategic sense this is very undermining for any nation.?

Such questions are only posed to low IQ coconuts who neither have the guts nor the power to articulate a proper reply. This unnamed official thinks too much of their feelings & it's impact on Indian domestic politics. Such statements can be easily countered & put down. It's just that the listener does not want to do so for offending the gora.

Meenakshi Lekhi also said that it is linked to the data protection Bill coming up in this parliament session.

Whether Seema Sirohi and Tanvi Madan share the same outlook or not, the fact is that Tanvi Madan does not engage with people on Twitter who disagree with her and criticise her positions. It can be said, that she rarely praises India on any strategic matter, always hedging it with some problem or other. This is very typical of Indians working at US think tanks.

the "unnamed official" is always a cowardly ploy and a metaphor for the nonexistent.

such officials "can be made to say" whatever the "writer" pleases or "someone" in the organization "wants to be said" and no one is the wiser since it can neither be proved nor disproved because these hypocrites will simply claim that their "sources" cannot be revealed. It also revealing of the writer's prejudices to a large extent.

the amerikis want access to our arms markets, our consumer markets and our financial markets with unrestricted and free one sided data flow. They want their big data firms to have a dominant say in the Indian social media space so selective censorship and regime changes can be orchestrated if the present regimes are seen to be against ameriki interests

the colonial empire had clive and east India company types, and now these digital colonizers have today reincarnated as amazon, mastercard and lockheed martin with the empress, viceroy and the britshit raj back in their new avatars of the state dept, CIA and the pentagon

with the dead native children's bodies being discovered in the US as well as canadian church schools, not to mention the almost similar scandals in australia and maybe even newzealand, these guys are in no position to badmouth anyone.

Trump was regime changed by misusing social and digital media controlled by big ameriki corporates. This was tried out during brexit, successfully deployed to remove trump, and now India seems to be in the crosshairs.

Post wuhan, Indian markets can provide a lot of employment as well as investment avenues for gora companies provided ameriki companies can influence Indian lawmakers to legislate as they want.

The moral decay of their systems are of very long standing and already much exposed

the britshits and their former colonial properties are particularly hypocritical and sanctimonious in this regard.

the congis, the desert cults, and the commies are the political thookers openly aiding the BIF

The more I look at this Pegasus thing. The more I think that this is a not so subtle hit job against Israel through the BDS movement championed by leftists in alliance with global Islamists.

India in political turmoil as a result of the hit job is a beneficial collateral damage to this group.

Sort of two birds single stone.

Jo Biden is too far gone to even understand the damage this is going to do to the strategic capacity of United States.

Very well put, Chetak! Dhume and Varadarajan don't seem to realise that the US has never really been thrilled with India, they would have preferred a dictatorship from day one, which would give the US unfettered access to minerals and other assets. To the extent that the relationship has not been 'transactional' is a credit to Indian leaders, including perhaps most of all Modi. Modi has helped to make India stronger and no-nonsense taking, for the most part. Also, this 'transactional' relationship with Saudi that the US has conducted, has affected India adversely. Money and ideology from Saudi has fuelled Islamist violence in Kashmir and elsewhere. And not just in India. Varadarajan takes an amoral( or worse) position on that.

this explains how and why the "farmer's" agitation has been sustained for such a long time.

There is no doubt left that the congis, commies, khalistanis, shaheenbagh, AAP, and the djinnah wali aazadi types are in it together.

If the congis or the AAP form the next govt in punjab, the border situation will gradually spiral out of control. the pakis may have the jehadi manpower to spare for cashmere and also punjab, especially after the amerikis scooted from afghanistan.

the congis are playing a dangerous game and amarinder has been used and thrown away.

siddhu's father was a congi MLA in the old days so, in a way, this joker has returned back home.

The whole of Punjab came out in protest of the farm laws.

At that time if there had been any other CM (other than Capt Amarinder Singh), then, the protests being held against BJP today would have been against us (Punjab govt & Congress)

In the late 80s Sidhu murdered a man after a road rage incident, given the state of our judiciary he not only walked out scot-free but continued his cricketing career for another 10 yrs before switching to commenting.

The agro-middleman protests has now moved closer to parliament to jantar-mantar. Just like they increased the pitch before WB elections, they will amplify their "protests" and riot before the UP elections. The goal is pretty simple, to repeat what Rakesh Dakait's father Mahendar Tikait did in 1989 by gheraoing Delhi and forcing the VP Singh government to bow to his terms.

In other news Karnataka's BJP vs BJP vs BJP vs BJP battle continues with all 4 factions of the ruling party taking the battle to final stages. We may soon see the curtains come down on Yediyurappa's political career, he is fortunate to have been a four time CM of Karnataka while also unfortunate to have never ruled for more than 2 yrs at a time. At this point it really does not matter whom Delhi selects as the next BJP CM from Karnataka, the party is set for a spectacular defeat in 2023. Its a shame that the only southern state where BJP has consistently grown from the 80s lies in tatters because of bitter factionalism. People don't mind bringing back INC because despite knowing that they are corrupt to the bones atleast there is relative political stability. Besides, most of the BJP MPs and MLAs in the state win riding on the coattails of Modi and Shah and not because of their work or virtues. Almost every BJP MLA including 20 and 30 something first time MLAs have made a min.100 to 200 crores each in the last 2 yrs, so they are just as corrupt as the CongI's minus the blatant minority appeasement programs.

Even a broken clock is right twice a day.

And once in a long long while, between every 10 crore exudations of sheer falsehood, invertebrates of Dhume & Vardarajan's ilk will open their mouths just once to speak the absolute truth.

Here they finally admit in all honesty that the "problem" they are always bellyaching about doesn't involve a practical restriction in any objective sense whatsoever. It's purely subjective... a matter of "attractiveness", or in other words, aesthetics.

The problem with Modi's India is not that it can't have a perfectly good, mutually beneficial relationship with America on transactional terms. The problem is that to the jaundiced eyes and prejudiced sensibilities of these decaying Nehruvians, Modi's India is "Ugly".

Viewed with the blinding clarity of that distinction, it becomes obvious that there is no problem for the USA and no problem for India.

There is very much a problem for these guys, however. See how they lament that India's relationship to the US will be transactional, not "civilizational". What they mean by "civilizational", of course, is: "defined by the aesthetics of a value system shaped by the British, exalted by the Nehru dynasty (and their Khan Market hangers-on), reinforced at such institutions as Doon School and St Stephens, and worn on our sleeves as a hallmark of elite status to conceal the true depths of our undeserving mediocrity".

Modi's India is the mirror that has shown these petty little emperors the nature of their clothes.

Dhume and Tunkuv.
Remember, these guys have ZERO skills apart from some English fluency.
These guys need to earn a living. Some Amreeki org pays them to p1ss on India. Trust me...,if I pay them better, I can make them eat from off my feet while I am taking a dump. And they will do it. And they will write "I trust modern science and its ability to handle disease breaking the traditional norms of cleanliness and hygiene. " .

If all this sounds disgusting to you, sorry foiks....but you need to realize these lot are shameless media mercenaries. They will sell their daughters for a price. Having got elections wrong time and again, spinning tales having no credibility, do you think any person with such poor performance would have lasted as long in any other job with similar blunders. How do these guys continue then? They are there for empty gasbaggery. And soon enough, they will be discarded . Such worthless cretins need humiliation again and again until they break.

I don't think they have to be paid by any American org to take a piss on India.

In fact their problem is the opposite. They are afraid that if American establishment accepts & embraces the reality of the new post-INC/post-Left India, nobody will pay them for anything. So the reason they continuously piss on India is because they are desperate to ensure that day never comes.

All through their careers they used to get paid by American orgs to write about India... why? Because they were Indians fluent in English, educated at elite English-medium schools & colleges, who had "access" to VIP sources in Lutyens Delhi and Corporate India through their family and social-class connections.

Today that English-educated social class ITSELF is losing its monopoly on elite status. Thanks to Modi's India, many people educated in the vernacular medium can climb to top positions of influence on their merit alone. The Shashi Tharoor accent and vocabulary, which used to be the hallmarks of high status, no longer provide the exclusive ticket to success. A new elite class is rising from what used to be the lower-middle class, and its members are competing freely against the old English-educated elite class like Dhume, Varadarajan, Rajdeep Sardesai, Tavleen Singh etc.

These old Angrez-elites no longer control the keys to the kingdom... in fact, they have burned all their bridges to the present governing establishment... so with zero access and zero relevant sources, how much longer will phoren media continue to pay them to write about India? That's what they fear the most.

The people who have survived are those like Shekhar Gupta, who are also part of the old Angrez-elites, also very much anti-Modi, but hide their hatred behind a nice smiling mask of neutrality. They will still continue to have access, and continue to get paid.

Hats off to such an on point description Sir. Having been sent to one such school, I have spent time with these so called elites, and once you get past the anglicised fluff, there is absolutely no substance. Most of their accomplishments in the real world are a result of mediocre performance mixed with "networking"

Self-loathing and India’s Anglophones
This medium article by Professor Subash Kak just came out. It is completely apt for what we are discussing.

This government has finally made a start 70 years after independence with the new education policy. But there is a long way to go and society has a big role to play in this. If we can revive our temples, that could make a big difference.

This whole Naxal-Maoist gang in India is nurtured and protected by Congress mafia. This party is a threat to national security.
