RE:Bagladesh is becoming another Pakistan & harrasing India

Ok Dude, What year were you born in? Jacob's remarkable treatise on the 1971 war and the historic "Surrender" was published very much while General Aurora was alive. Infact, the book, Surrender At Daaca: The Birth of a Nation by General Jacob was published in 1997 and Aurora passed away in 2006. Meanwhile, there were 9 reprints and Aurora did not have the heart to contest any content of Jacob's famous book, during either of these 9 reprints and during his lifetime. The book was presented to General Aurora on more than one occassion by various top commanders of the army, and yet Aurora didn't have the courage of conviction to contest it.
And for your information, upon reading General Jacob's book, US President George Bush and First Lady Laura Bush sent a personal note appreciation to the war hero- General Jacob in 2006.
The Present British Army Chief, Richard Dannat has this year analysed the winning military strategies, that have been elucidated in "Surrender at Dacca by Jacob" after reading it.
Also, only last week, the historic account has been added to the prestigious House of Lord's library in London.
Now let's hear about your dubious side of the story! Get Real Buster!
