RE:In simple language, dont retaliate?
by crazy on Jul 09, 2008 07:38 PM

Let me give you some more statistics to make my point clear. India spends approx 10 Billion on salaries. So it spends 16 Bill on maintainance and purchase of weapons. USA spends 120 Bill on salaries and around 450 Bill on maintainance and purchase of new weapons.

India buys most of its weapons from developed countries. Therefore we dont get the benefits of Purchasin Power parity in the international arms market.
-------------------------------------------
My point is what big difference will India make in Afghanistan by getting invovled Militarily when USA and Nato are already there?

Isreal... who is the Isreal fighting with? Hizbolla. The jerks think that they can win against Isreal by firing Kasam rockets! besides Isreal has full backing of USA. If any country (e.x. Iran)attacks Isreal then USA enters the war. Thats not the case for India. So its not right to compare India with Isreal.
