The main official briefing ended. They went out of their way to mention number of drones and they were Turkish origin. You think they will hide a pilot being captured? Comeon...
Looks like ddnews wants to enter the ddm club. And the link is giving me a gateway timeout error. How apt.
Whatever, I'd like to be proven wrong but looks unlikely at this point. Anyway I'm done.

Ehh, the kinetic phase may be over. But the Indus Water Treaty is gone. So Phase II of this same operation will take place over the next 10 years as we build dams and canals wherever we want…

To me it does not look like infiltration party, but a proper paki post getting annihilated. The cation says 8 JeM militants kill, you can use your own brain cell to deduce who were halaled!!

This is the psyops we are playing, mar bhi rahe hain aur ginti bhi nahi kar rahe hain. I don't think we are trying to win the PR war (weare winning in is besides the point), we are sending message to the TSP brass, we can, we will and we have fukced you!!, we have not advertised it, we can increase the penetration entensity many times over, choice is yours for today what you want to do and tomorrow what you may plan to do. Choose your option wisely, otherwise unimaginable pain is coming your way. You can sell your fauzi cereal and fertilizer and toothpaste and strut in expensive car, we have no issues, but you try mard e momin stunt on us, we will widen your nether hole beyond your imagination.

Since Jihadis and Pakfauj have done joint funeral, if we leave it at this, expect major terror attacks in a few months, Unless there is some humiliation, for Pakis and public they will be back to the game , and they will be better prepared.

I feel things are not yet over...
1) IPL has been suspended... If things are wrapping up, this will not be required... On contrary, IPL suspension would mean things may escalate...
2) There was hightened security at all airports, temples and other public places since yesterday evening... Airlines sent messages asking passengers to come 3 hours early... Saw news on Telugu channels about extra checkings at Titupati & Srisailam temples... Even railways put up special ads to be careful about unidentified packages... I feel there is some credible intelligence input about another terrorist attack...
3) In Delhi also, they're installing Air Raid Sirens...

Isn't that presenting a pilot would force India to return him immediately? May be he is being held for debrief and other leverages. Why are we doubting even DD News?

Then it confirms my suspicions that the said ministry is running its behbsite on a derated Intel 8086 processor and an early pre 1.0 alfa release of Apache. :D

You dont need to Present Pilots, just the names , Photos of the 3 Aircraft debris with Tail Nos and radar image if AEW shootdown is true.

Otherwise no one is going to belive, and we can always take a few weeks/ Months to release Pilot. Pakis were desperate in Feb 2019 since a lot of their Swift Retreat plans went bad and Balakot was highly unexpected.

Agree. One way to look at it is that this did not happen and news including DD wbesite was fog of war, media circus etc. Other reason can be they do not want any distraction to hijack core objective - visible punishment.

Yup, till Aircraft debris pictures with Tail Nos and Pilot names are out, the shootdown news is suspect.

Strange logic. We are now setting up new boundaries of proof dikhao. Just like that Udhvab Shiv Sena guy said, don't kill those terrorists, capture them alive, and get them identified by the Pahelgum survivors, then only I will believe. Who cares about tail numbers. That is exactly the propaganda trap Pakistan wants us to get in.

I’m guessing even then the initiative will be with the Pakis. Vishwa guru will just cry Suhag, Pati Parmeshwar yada yada.
Actually there will be nothing left to cry about just like Pritviraj Chauhan.

This is a very interesting situation. The preparations on the ground in India are on a war footing with even Finance Ministry going through emergency measures and checks. The GoI media briefings however have been the exact opposite, as if we are only reading out a list of things and there is no follow up plan. India is supposed to be doing a lot of damage to TSP but not speaking about it. However TSP is doing a lot of speaking and not stopping their shelling and drone attacks on India. Someone will have to blink soon as this cannot go on like this.

Boss, we are talking about aircraft shoot down here, if its true that we have 3 fighter debris and 1 Pilot in captivity with it shown in front of Cameras, it will completely dent the Paki psyche- and H&D. They will keep quiet for years as they would have lost face in Public.

If it is not true then our Media claims were as good as their Rafale and Su-30 shootdown claim.

At present lets just treat it as it didn't happen and some event happens which makes the PA and PAF humiliated giving us another few years.

Leaving at this without PA or PAF casualties will mean Pakis will try another a few months down the line.

1971 wAR-18 Years peace, Operation Parakram bought an artillery ceasefire agreement which has largely held, Pakis need public humiliation or significant casualties to Temporarily change their behavior while we prepare better.

Come on, guys!!
Assuming that the fighters and the AEW takedowns were false reporting, does it take away anything from what was meted out and disclosed so far?
The hardware that they have lost is going to cost them dearly to replace since they are broke and will take time. Even Ergodan will not be able to finance this as Turkey is itself in a fragile condition.

We are bleeding them with a thousand cuts and that's the only way with them.

You need to study the Pakistani psyche. They have no shame. Only fear. If they fear, they will put out their activities for sometime. But this is a situation that we are dealing it for a Long long time. It can only be eliminated when we reclaim our lost lands.
You will have proof of F16 and JF-17 and pilot and not of AEW. Even if you show the radar screen, the narrative will shift to them like last time. Pakistanis will do a show with Plane count by journalists at their airbase etc. You will be giving them some Media coverage and they will run with it.
Either yesterdays TV news was deliberate ploy and threatening them with what will happen or winning the Psychological war or these things really happened. We have not yet seen the Pakistanis taking Journalists to their airbase and showing the AEWs right which usually they will be doing by now.

I really doubt their pilot is captured...
I don't think PAF would have flown so close to Indian Air space, let alone cross it... Coz. they know it will be a huge H&D loss after what they did to Abhinandan...
Even if their jet is shotdown by our SAMs, there is very less chance that it will fall on Indian side...
----
One possibility is--->
May be we did hit their planes but in their air space...
Simply saying we hit so & so jets on their side would only lead to social media circus from Pak side...
----
India seems to want to focus on Pakistan escalating things irresponsibly...
They do not want to have any diversions in narrative at this stage...

Exactly. That is their game plan. Win the media war. This time we don't care about that. Let them shout about Rafale kill, F16 fake. End result would be destruction of Pakistan as a state which may not the immediate goal of this kinetic war, but rather a long drawn multi-pronged approach. To break Pakistan, it has to implode from within. External attacks would only unite them.

An old video. A must watch to understand the Mindset of a Jihadi/Pakistanis.

What India Should Do After Pulwama - Sadhguru

Sadhguru answers a question from Prasoon Joshi, on how India should respond after a terror attack such as Pulwama.

For the Pakistan fighter craft shoot downs that are supposed to have happened over India, I am of the opinion that had they happened there would have been ample proof by now. Too many people walking around with cellphones, and too much of a piskoligical blow weapon for the GOI not to make public.

Funny.. I slept for many hours and came back thinking there will be a lot of news for Jingoes... and I see nothing has happened :rotfl:

Few observations:

EAM is in Russia joining the victory day parade in the evening :!:
CNN and AP has some muted news about India Pakistan... Basically US liberal leaning media in the US is losing interest. Conservative media has forgotten the whole thing already. Officially US has washed her hands.
Reuters is spewing Paki version of the whole thing with even more rigor.

DM and HM is preparing the border states. Modi is silent and Pakis had their own presser with reps from Amry and Airforce to do an equal-equal.

All the major TV channels including DD has egg on their faces since nothing really happened except SDREs defended when Paki came with big retaliation of > 300 drones ?? SDREs look really week now :mrgreen:

We are missing something for sure. Modi Sarkar has something up their sleeves. Somebody very official sounding leaked a lot of false information to the media big time. I think other intelligence people, including ISI will be scratching their head big time.

Even more of a joke is Paki DM mentioned in their parliament that they did not shoot the incoming Indian drones in order to not reveal their anti-drone system's location :rotfl:

There is three dimensional levels of Maya here friends.

If you don’t have a vote, then face it, no matter how avid an India supporter you are, you are a guest.

Looks like we are desperately trying to hand Pakistan an offramp, which they are refusing to take. The entire initiative seems to be sitting with them. They can choose to prolong or end this conflict at the time of their choosing. Hope I am wrong and govt has something up their sleeve. These animals take restraint and maturity as weakness. The only language they understand is one of fear.
