RE:Tawang: Some Indian plain-speaking at last!
by s deshpande on Jun 28, 2007 06:31 AM

Chinese do such things on purpose. You may remember when Atal Bihari Bajpayee was our External Affairs Minister, he had visited China. When he was still in China, their army attacked our forward posts and hit our dozen bunkers. It was their way to show us that they do not give a damn to the fact that our EA minister was their guest. However, Indian army retaliated and demosished more than twenty chinese forward post bunkers. Long back, when Chou En Li, the Chinese premier visited India in Nehru's time, he was entertained as a guest even to the extent that Nehru accompanied him to our National Defence Academy at Khadakwasla, Pune and showed him how we trained our military officers! At that time, both chanted 'Hindi Chini Bhai Bhai'. Immediately afterwards in 1962, China attacked us. I am not surprised they claimed Tawang just before the visit of the present chinese president. They say one thing and do exactly opposite. They are better quarreling with us than being friendly because their being friendly means they actually hate us! Their history with us shows that they ARE backstabbers. I think George Fernandes was the greatest of our Defence Ministers so far. Because he openly said on TV that we are not concerned about Pakistan at all despite their gimmicks and that Pakistan will not remain if they try to use their nukes against India. He had further openly said that our nuclear weapon programme is mostly directed against China.
