Re: 2021 Strategic and Political Analysis-1
I may be required to make an urgent trip to Delhi for family reasons. The place I will be visiting is on paper in Uttar Pradesh (within Ghaziabad district limits) but is seen as NOIDA extension. Can someone tell me if the place is accessible in both directions by taxi in the context of the ongoing farmers' agitation? Thanks.

Bengal post-poll violence: CBI to probe murder and rape cases, HC says
NEW DELHI: The Calcutta high court on Thursday ordered court-monitored CBI probe into alleged into murder, rape cases during post-poll violence in West Bengal and asked the central agency to file report by six weeks.
The high court has also ordered to set up SIT for investigation into other offences. Senior officers from West Bengal cadre will be a part of the special investigation team.
The state government has been asked to hand over all documents and records to the investigating agencies. "In case, the state is not acting properly, it will be viewed seriously," the high court stated.

Thanks dipak. I only hope that things don't change for the worse between now and when I would be visiting as the trip could be anytime between now and second week of September.dipak wrote:It’s open and accessible ...nandakumar wrote:I may be required to make an urgent trip to Delhi for family reasons.

Afghanistan related news but goes into strategic thread

Okay for the maoists in India and their urban naxals like Arundhoti, Do-Ungli Bhasker and their assorted mediapimps and islamofascist apologists like Arfa lehngewali, the "good taliban" will be in Afghanistan cutting trade deals with Cheen. The "bad taliban" will be in Pakistan cutting out Xi's heart and dream.So far, the Chinese are being diplomatic. When asked about the connection between the Dasu attack and the Taliban, the foreign ministry in July countered with an intriguing distinction: Which Taliban? Beijing portrays the Afghan Taliban as “a pivotal military and political force,” but sees the Pakistani Taliban as a terrorist group. In late July, during an Afghan Taliban diplomatic charm offensive visit, Beijing managed to extract a public pledge that the group would not allow fighters to use Afghan soil as a base to attack China.
That promise alone showcases how uneasy China is with Afghanistan’s new rulers. While China has not invested much in Afghanistan, it can’t afford it to destabilize Pakistan. Beijing still has very vivid memories of its last creditor’s trap, which it stumbled into with Venezuela six years ago. One more failed bet on a failed state will cut to the heart of Xi’s BRI dreams.

Planes, Guns, Night-Vision Goggles: the Taliban's New U.S.-Made War Chest

"Everything that hasn't been destroyed is the Taliban's now," one U.S. official, speaking on the condition of anonymity, told Reuters.
Current and former U.S. officials say there is concern those weapons could be used to kill civilians, be seized by other militant groups such as Islamic State to attack U.S.-interests in the region, or even potentially be handed over to adversaries including China and Russia.
President Joe Biden's administration is so concerned about the weapons that it is considering a number of options to pursue.
The officials said launching airstrikes against the larger equipment, such as helicopters, has not been ruled out, but there is concern that would antagonize the Taliban at a time the United States' main goal is evacuating people https://www.reuters.com/world/asia-paci ... 2021-08-16.

Let them loot, but US will have to supply spares which they may or not choose to do. Pakis cant afford the fuel or spares. And Abandoned Equipment is never well maintained. Even Lubricants and Engine Oils will have to be changed.
Paki M-109 also probably have a problem as all the Armies had abused them before sending them to the Pakis.

things like spares and lubricants will not slow them down and there are alternatives to everything.
humvees, for eg. are commercially available and so are their spares, just saying onlee.
regarding ammo of all kinds, they will simply refill the used shells and use them
For all those toyota vehicles floating around in the world's trouble spots, there are no toyota authorised "dealers" servicing them.

That was done so neither side wins and make sure the Iran-Iraq war was a draw. If US did not supply parts through Israel , Iraq would have won pretty quickly, not something which was in the interest of Israel at that time.

https://www.dw.com/en/iran-und-israel-t ... a-17437981
There were increasingly public tensions between Iran and Israel, but at the same time, cooperation was secretly revived, triggered by the start of the Iran-Iraq war in September 1980.
Unimpressed by the revolution in Tehran, almost the entire western world supported Iraq, which had been armed to the hilt by the United States. Israel, on the other hand, regarded Saddam Hussein's regime as the greater threat - and sided with Khomeini.
According to a study conducted by the Tel Aviv Institute for National Security Studies (INSS), Israel supplied Iran with arms totaling $500 million (365 million euros) in the first three years of the war.
According to Fürtig, "Things were not looking good for Iran in the war with Iraq, partly because 90 percent of Iran's armaments had been acquired in the US during the Shah era." Those supplies were running out: "Iran was desperate for new suppliers prepared to provide US weaponry." Israel's offer was just what Iran needed.
Ayatollah Khomeini returned the favor when rumors started that Iraq was working on a nuclear bomb - a threat neither Jerusalem nor Tehran could accept. Iran's intelligence agency passed on valuable information to the Israeli air force, which bombed Iraq's Osirak nuclear reactor in 1981, setting back the suspected Iraqi nuclear program by years.
Such secret cooperation was highly sensitivem, says Fürtig, "and both sides tried to keep it under wraps. Neither Iran nor Israel wanted this to become public knowledge."
In November 1986, the Iran-Contra affair hit the United States: senior administration officials had secretly sold thousands of anti-tank and anti-aircraft missiles to Tehran and used proceeds from the weapons sales to fund rightwing Contra rebels in Nicaragua. Israel was significantly involved in the transactions.
Re: 2021 Strategic and Political Analysis-1
These guys are not so street smart- they are more supported by the powers that be- they keep the propaganda so as to reveal what thier real agendas are- take the above Iran Iraq war, they persuaded Saddam to start the war and then used the ISraeli channel to keep supplying Iran so that both sides would have huge body bags- only 2 nations operated the F-14 tomcat, US and iran- imagine spare parts being sold to this supply chain , if it was not going to US Navy inventories, they knew where this was going.chetak wrote:these guys are street smart and innovative and used to running on shoestring budgets.Aditya_V wrote:Let them loot, but US will have to supply spares which they may or not choose to do.

Similarly, Musharaf first speech on Telivision Broadcast world wide in Urdu after 9/11 giving support to the US clearly spelt he was doing a temporary agreement and was to ultimately defeat the Americans, CNN deliberately mistranslated it. It would be fullish that there were not enough people knowing Hindi/ Urdu who could not tell that to the US Govt. The immediate focus away from Afghanistan to Iraq in 2002, inspite of thier own soldiers protesting various things done to Keep the Pakistan support to the Taliban alive.
So it looks like Full bright Scholar Ghani has implemented some secret agenda which is not known to the Public where he has sabotaged the ANA, this not some brilliant peace of work by ISI/Taliban. Probably they did want to leave a regime friendly to Iran/Russia in Kabul. India is a casualty, see the British are whitewashing the Taliban crimes.
Re: 2021 Strategic and Political Analysis-1
As long as there is no major Terror attack in Western Europe/ USA. The Taliban are the preferred regime for the West in Afganistan, Pakistan and China
1) They keep Afghanistan extremely backward
2) Its out of reach for India- Russia - Iran to work some deal to connect to CAR republic for energy exports or even work together and get seriously start arming Pathans and Baluchis which will lead to the Break up of Pakistan and lead India to be the dominate force in the Indian subcontinent.
In such a scenario, Indian -Russian energy and trade will boom - not in the intrest of Middle East- West or China.
Thats why the US never armed anti Taliban elements and created the Green horn ANA with very limted weaponary. Heck, Biden openly told Hamid Karzai as wise precedent. That Pakistan was more important to them than Afganistan?
Can the West declare their agenda to Public- it is some great feet of the ISI- Taliban but a deliberate policy. Afgan people are the biggest losers, so as long arms and weapons can be supplied, the Taliban will soon be in big trouble in Afganistan, that will not be the problem for West/ China. The don't want too strong an Afganistan where the Pasthuns can start infiltrating and hitting the Punjabi heartland leading to the split of Pakistan.
Their agenda is exactly the opposite of ours.

Re: 2021 Strategic and Political Analysis-1
some guys in UP and bihar are cranking out knock off copies of automatic pistols in workshops out in the boondocks.
the hundreds of stolen INSAS rifles with the naxals are being serviced and they also use reloaded ammo.
Humvee spares are not in the rocket science category.
the yokels will be able to cast, machine or forge parts in crude facilities. For the rest of the stuff, but for the alloy compositions, the paki ordinance factories, industries in SL, malayasia, indonesia, philippines, and ex soviet republics are being used.
The paki gas centrifuges used by xerox khan for the nuke programs were made and built mostly from critical parts made in malayasia/indonesia.
what happens with the cheaper knockoffs is that component life is reduced and such parts need replacement more often is all.
the MICs of eyraan and turki is far ahead of what is available in India, even SL has better infrastructure in this domain, as do malayasia, indonesia and philippines.
Countries of the republic of the erstwhile USSR can do such work without breaking a sweat. All it takes is a plentiful supply of vitamin M.
Israel is in a very different league, often bettering even the US is many highly specialized defence related domains

Re: 2021 Strategic and Political Analysis-1
US detected Plutonium from Paki Test site from samples collected by their intelligence efforts indicating it was not Xerox Khan but Vanilla Chinese import. That's why neither Iran nor Libya made any Nukes inspite of Paki machinery headed by Xerox Khan selling them all their drawings. Plus Pakis claim to have 6 tests but seismic activity detected 2. Did the Chinese Plutonium bombs work and Xerox Khan ones were duds or was it plane lying?
Regarding Humvees it is a specialized vehicle beyond 1 year 2 year they will.need American help to keep them running.

Re: 2021 Strategic and Political Analysis-1
There are many private hummers in India.
They are being serviced and repaired here.
the same guys who trained these Indian guys or the company that trained mu$!im hummer mechanics in the gelf can easily train talibs, if needed.
The hundreds of captured humvees in afghanistan would have been taken with considerable stocks of spares.
Humvees can always be re engined, gear boxes changed and what not. That is the job of a mid level garage.
there is no vehicle in the world, that determined people with money cannot maintain, alter, modify and/or repair. There is always an angle, some guy on the take, some momin, with access to spares, willing to further the cause.
NONPROLIFERATION: The Pakistan Network
very obviously, the then Malaysian Prime Minister Abdullah Badawi, didn't want his family jewels being cut off publicly with a blunt and rusty knife, nor did he want his son to suffer the same way. So the punk wormed his way out of it. This malaysaian involvement has been corroborated by many sources.
badawi had no other option but to say this and take this lying line that he did, otherwise, international sanctions would have bitten huge chunks off his bony butt.
and look at his vague and ambiguous statement
"there is no capability within the country or within the company concerned to produce nuclear bombs or any complete components to make nuclear weapons."
BTW, the amerikis and the britshits were aware of the paki efforts to make the bomb and let them go ahead.
They both abetted the pakis by staying out of their way.

What has the Libya probe found?
Libyan leader Muammar el-Qaddafi’s December 2003 decision to give up his country’s nuclear program and cooperate with international inspectors gave authorities access to a mother lode of information. Documents turned over by the Libyans included centrifuge designs and plans for a nuclear bomb, wrapped in plastic bags from an Islamabad dry cleaner, The New York Times reported February 9. The documents also revealed the source of the nuclear components that Libya bought: Scomi Precision Engineering, or SCOPE, in Selangor, Malaysia.
What is known about the Malaysian company?
SCOPE is part of a publicly traded oil and gas conglomerate whose largest shareholder, Kamaluddin Abdullah, is the son of Malaysian Prime Minister Abdullah Badawi. "The evidence suggests that the Malaysian factory was able to manufacture parts to Pakistani designs for centrifuges that could then be shipped on to Libya and Iran," Shannon Kyle, a nuclear weapons analyst at the Stockholm International Peace Institute, told The South China Morning Post. Kamaluddin Abdullah has not commented on the case, but the prime minister said at a news conference February 5 that "there is no capability within the country or within the company concerned to produce nuclear bombs or any complete components to make nuclear weapons."
How were the illicit goods transported?
The Libyan investigation has revealed a sophisticated transportation network spanning the globe from East Asia to Africa. The centrifuge shipment that authorities seized last October was arranged by a middleman named B.S.A. Tahir, a Sri Lankan businessman based in Dubai, according to The New York Times. Tahir is the controlling shareholder in Gulf Technical Industries, a Dubai-based concern that received the centrifuge shipments from Malaysia, then loaded them onto a German ship to send to Libya by way of Italy. In Khan’s confession, he said middlemen in Sri Lanka, Germany, and the Netherlands helped transport plans, parts, and materials to his international clients.
What has the Khan probe found?
That Khan sent hardware, designs, and technology to countries around the world from the late 1980s until he was forced to retire in March 2001, according to experts and Khan’s confession. "There’s no question that the nexis of this exchange has been Pakistan," says Lee Feinstein, deputy director of studies at the Council on Foreign Relations. Experts say the traded items included:
Blueprints for Pakistani centrifuges, which were swapped for North Korean ballistic missile technology. Paul Leventhal, founding president of the Nuclear Control Institute, says the centrifuge design Khan shared with others is based on a model that he stole from the European consortium URENCO, which produces enriched uranium for nuclear power, when Khan worked there as a scientist in the 1970s.
Blueprints for a crude nuclear bomb that Khan designed.
Designs and parts for centrifuges that can enrich uranium. Experts say Libya was buying parts of--and sometimes whole--sophisticated centrifuges able to spin at twice the speed of sound and separate isotopes of U-235, or enriched uranium, from naturally occurring U-238. (As the centrifuge spins, the lighter U-235 concentrates in the center, while the heavier U-238 moves toward the outside.) The steel used in the tubing for the centrifuges, which rotate at hundreds of thousands of revolutions per minute, must be perfectly balanced and milled to exact specifications, according to Nelson. The level of sophistication required precludes the material from other, legitimate uses, such as medical or pharmaceutical research, he says. And because each centrifuge enriches the uranium only slightly, thousands of them used in sequence are needed to produce enough fissile material for one nuclear bomb.

what does it even mean and what exactly is our embassy in the US doing about this.
this is a toolkit for derailing Modi's election bid in 2024 as well as derailing a few state elections like UP elections, for starters.
It is scheduled to take place on 9/11 and that is not a coincidence.

Tarek Fatah@TarekFatah·Aug 18
"Dismantling Global Hindutva" - Yes, that's the name of the conference, sponsored by Harvard, Stanford and Berkley + 40 others. Look at the speakers - it's a who-is-who of rabid Hindu haters, virulent anti-Indian voices, oblivious to the Taliban terror.
and this is their stated objective.
This rise of militant Hindu groups in India and the corresponding escalation of violence against religious minorities and other marginalized communities is well documented, including by global media. International attention has also been directed at the exclusionary Citizenship Amendment Act of 2019 pushed through by the ruling Hindutva-aligned Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), the aggressive crackdown on all forms of democratic dissent, and the intimidation and imprisonment of journalists, human rights groups and activists working to empower marginalized caste and tribal communities. This overall erosion of democratic practices and freedoms in India has been noted by global research networks. There has also been some useful scholarship, journalism and community-based activism on the links between Hindutva and racism and caste-ism. We need now to develop a comprehensive understanding of Hindutva and its global implications through its different iterations in the large Indian Diaspora and its potential for building links with other supremacist ideologies, especially as Hindutva groups expand their influence well beyond India.
The BJP and its various affiliate groups have been adept at building connections with the vast Hindu diaspora, particularly in the United States, the United Kingdom, and Canada. This reach has contributed materially and ideologically to the strengthening of Hindutva in India. Moreover even as such groups have leveraged racialized minority protections in, for instance, the US, they have continued to support caste-discriminatory practices and have found common cause with far right and white supremacist groups in Europe and the US.
It is also important to recognize the economic turmoil unleashed by the authoritarian economic policies and policy-making framework of the BJP government, including the failed demonetization policies and the ill-conceived agricultural reform policies. Such erratic and draconian policy making has led to stalled economic growth, dangerous declines in basic living standards, and loss of protections for the most vulnerable labor and agricultural communities in India.
This conference will convene panels on a variety of interlinked topics that address the threat and power of Hindutva. Scholars, journalists, and activists will examine the historical development of Hindutva, the fascist dimensions of the ideology, its alignment with other supremacist movements and define all that is at stake across a range of political, socio-cultural, and economic issues. We also aim for the conference to be a space for examining the history of dissent and resistance against Hindutva. Dalit and Feminist traditions have long resisted the singular narrative of Hinduism adopted by Hindu Supremacists. A broader coalition of activists from progressive communities have mobilized to enable both material and ideological divestment from Hindutva. Drawing inspiration from such collectivities, we expect to develop resources for anti-Hindutva pedagogy and organizing in educational and cultural institutions everywhere.

Mehbooba Mufti Draws Parallel Between Afghanistan Crisis & Situation In J&K
PDP president Mehbooba Mufti drew comparisons to the Taliban and warned the Centre to take lessons on how the militant group could drive powerful America out of Afghanistan, while also urging the Modi government to hold dialogue with citizens of Kashmir and restore Jammu and Kashmir's special status. She used the ant-elephant analogy to illustrate how the Taliban drove NATO and other international powers out of Afghanistan. She also advised people to nurture the wound caused by the repeal of Article 370 and use it to fight peacefully.
Re: 2021 Strategic and Political Analysis-1
Yes Taliban fought peacefully till USA with a big gun on their heads stayed in AFG. The day, USA left afg with chinki money they bought the warlords. I will accept that USA is defeated if taliban arrest and hang every American in afg for committing war crimes in Afg.

She needs to introspection on how a Dogra general crushed the Muslim overlords of Kashmir.

India drove the mighty British out of India, the mighty Portuguese out of Goa, and then the mighty Pakistanis out of Bangladesh.
EDIT: Why is she showing her face on TV BTW? She is a very bad woman, she should be in a full burqa.
