The prosecutors are officers of the court but are Govt appointed, no?

The US Govt generally gives a free hand to their prosecutors. Remember that desi guy who created the entire fiasco with Devyani and then she had to be given UN credentials and brought back home. Am sure Obama administration didn’t want it but they don’t generally interfere

India has walked a tightrope in the Ukraine war and is also doing the same in the Israel war - full marks to the Govt and diplomats for that

More than a manufacturing hub (which it can be), two other factors matter 1. Size of Indian market - as Indian economy grows, more and more Indians will consume American goods and services 2. Indian diaspora - it is doing well and placed in various industries there

They could have found any lackey within the US if they wanted to. Let’s see how it plays out. But the lack of outrage by the Indian Govt and the Godi media as opposed to the bombastic coverage with the Canadians is itself telling

I am telling you it was a botched operation. This isn’t politics - it’s merely rooted in incompetence

Biting off more than they can chew. The biggest problem is when you start believing in your own legend.

Umm. How? let’s assume clean sweep in Gujarat 26, 60/80 in UP, clean sweep in Delhi 7, Haryana 10, Himachal 4, Bihar 20, J&K 3, Jharkhand 11, Karnataka 15, MP 20, Maharashtra 15, Odisha 5, Rajasthan 15, Uttarakhand 5, Bengal 10 This equals 226 + 10 seats from NE = 236 - still almost 40 short...

From the looks of it, BJP is poised to win atleast 220 seats in the LS election - they will easily win UP, MP, Gujarat and emerge as a major force in most North Indian states They have negligible presence in the south.

The Americans are handling it more delicately than the Canadians. Also, what’s Modi going to do? Threaten to stop issuing visas to Americans? 😂

So the guy who engineered a coup against Sharif didn't stop him from flying to Clinton?

There was no honorable exit as such. After what was a collosal Indian intelligence failure and Indian losses, the introduction of Bofors and the Indian Air Force changed the equation. Pak Air Force didn't get involved - even Nachiketa was shot down by the Pak Army and not Air Force if I remember...

You are right. If one sees American movies you would think USA single handedly won WW2. In reality, Britain was the only one holding out alone with its colonies and later on the USSR. But it doesn't distort the overall picture of what happened.

This thread isn't about 9/11. Feel free to open a thread in the appropriate sub forum

Please don't peddle conspiracy theories. It's well proven and even acknowledged by various Govts and officials that Pak citizens and agencies were involved in 26/11. And 9/11 information is also available on proper resources outlining the involvement of Osama.

Can't believe it's been 15 years. I flew our from JFK on 9/9 and then this happened a few years later when I was en route to a pub called Henry Thams which was just a few hundred meters from the Taj. I started getting calls to turn around but I thought it's an exaggeration so I pulled over and...

India has always been reluctant to be in any camp as such and it's alliance with the West works strategically as a win-win. If interests collide, both sides will not be averse to charting their own course while still maintaining a strategic alliance in areas where interests overlap - like...

He has chosen his words carefully. Plausible deniability. @Nilgiri @Afif see the deshbhakt (Akash Bannerjee) video on this. I can't post it here since it's in Hindi
