I have an issue as there is a 100% weight on a subject in my head and it comes out for 1% summary the way it does...the mind stream effect heh. I am very vision + audio oriented memory wise (it was super tough to summarise rolling thunder like that, and drown out the long convos "fluff" with...
BJP et al. (which contains/allies most of the hindu nationalist factions these days) closest equivalent in Turkish context is something like AKP (and whatever level of Islamist factions it has within it or allied/proxied with etc).
Kind of like Christian Nationalists within the Republican Party...
Will maybe pick this up later more....regarding the dynamic side of things first so we get an understanding of what I mean by all the X factors (no plan survives first contact with the enemy etc).
A lot has to do with energy and timings in the various "states" of engagement of two large moving...
Again things are static or they are dynamic assets (adding another vector).
99.9% folks have done zero study as to why say USN lost a full third of top of the line skyhawks in rolling thunder to begin with (ignoring USAF thunderchiefs faring even worse)...which had top of the line specs for the...
Past the AFB "totally destroyed" claims by Pakistan (w.r.t sat intel to come shortly)....there is also an objective list of other claims to cross-verify with OSINT that comes out:
- "6 BM's" launched from armitsar, landing on amritsar itself
- Brahmos storage facility at Beas destroyed (the...
I said "likely", its not a conclusion by any stretch yet.
For that we will have to wait for the OSINT to get lot clearer (from maxar et al.) for both sides AFB.
Remember AFB's ought to be the most protected infra, and A2G missiles really shouldn't be landing doing major damage at this...
At to why India went to pak military infra as well, it was addressed here:

Damien Symon is good OSINT page to follow btw.
Objective maxar osint will come out, and claims vs reality will be cross checked on AFB damage etc. Members can just wait till its all distilled later.
One thing that likely comes out is S-400 (and rest of Indian IAD for its critical nodes) is superior to HQ-9 one.
Both sides have some...
"Audio recording" presented from one side means default authenticity?
Or harnessing a void on offer to (try) undermine another side with whatever narrative momentum perceived by one?
Has it never happened to the Turks from adversaries? or others?
Which objective authority exists to determine...
Gen Bakshi is not taken seriously by Indian defence commentator worth any beans...much less the defence establishment.
Dunno where random twitterati pull out he is "close aide to Modi" or whatever else suits their fancy.
He has been missing his head a while now...borrowing some earlier...
The above is part of reason AFAIK, Karachi airport has now re-opened (it is southern enough etc). Pakistani OSINT friend I trust tells me most other airports (to the north in Pakistan) are closed.
India also has closed a large number of airports in North India for a few days...
It has to do with whats mentioned in this release here mostly, that mTT posted:
That India says drone + missile attacks occurred (past the artillery barrages at LoC and "conflict window kept open for another phase etc etc") and were responded to... (and also whatever else may be going on that...
Have to go work and will be busy for a while.
Everyone keep to the forum rules and take everything "ongoing" with requisite grains of salt etc
We can only piece together things downstream more objectively.
