The 200 fallen angels chained and held in place in this region and around himalayas upto afghanistan by the kailash pyramid if released then contrary to what media reports not only india china russia usa pakistan armies will have to join together for a combined attack but universals galactics will also have to chip in and still it will be mayhem with all their missiles and nukes only the gods goddessess 6 d and above entities with their own ra can tackle them
The courage and skill of our frontline troops has always been laudable and so it was in 1967 too. But please remember that in 1967 China was in disarray with the Cultural Revolution in full flow and their economy – always the determinant in any military confrontation – was languishing just as ours was.
It is different now. China is unified under one strong leader and their GDP is five times the size of India’s. Unlike India, their military reformation and modernization is focused and being driven apace. And – having managed to simultaneously alarm most of their neighbors with their depredations ranging from the South China Sea to Doklam – they now feel threatened, given what they see as an emerging alliance of USA-Japan-India-Vietnam and others ranged against them.
It would be unwise for India to continue in a state of drift as far as military preparedness is concerned on the one hand, while engaging in a public display of intimacy with the US even as our media whips up ill-informed jingoistic sentiment in the public. Its a situation that needs cool leadership, pragmatic diplomacy, focused military preparedness – and sober, intelligent public discourse.

How the issues between India and China unfold will depend on the efforts of diplomats, the preparedness of the military and the sagacity of the respective leaderships – all of which always stays in the background. Playing up jingoistic feelings among the general public is something we need to avoid but sadly it seems all to prevalent in the media.

If the Chinese got a bloody nose with the loss of 300 men, the Indians weren’t much better off losing 200.
500 men killed, for what?
instead of reading lies in this article it is better check against wikipedia “Nathu La and Cho La clashes” to learn the truth.
