killer instinct
by kalyan ram on Aug 09, 2007 09:54 AM   Permalink | Hide replies

we indians really lack killer instinct whether it is wars or cricket.....ghazni fought with prithviraj chauhan and got defeated 16 times....16 times prithviraj chauhan let off ghazni without killing him.....by 17nth time ghazni was successfull and he killed prithviraj chauhan without mercy.....the rest is history and indian civilisation was gang raped by muslim invaders from then on......post 1947 indian army let off pakistan 4 times without destroying pakistan each time.....dont be illusioned by indian army superiority in numbers vs pakistan......dont be in heaven's paradise that pakistani army can never be able defeat indian army.....if pakistani army failed 4 times who knows they will be successful in 18nth or 19nth time to defeat indian army largely thanks to our indian politicians and army who lack killer instinct.....take no prisoners, we should kill them should be the motto....a country of a billion lacks even a single leader with leadership qualities and who can lead forward.....remember that all great wars were fought and won by army of small numbers when compared large enemy numbers.....example babur vs delhi sultans, vijayangara empire vs bahamani sultans at talikota are sheer examples where having the advantage of high number superiority is not enough......a dedicated army even small in numbers who fight meticulously and courageously will always win wars.....so we indians have to decide, whether to have killer instinct and destroy pakistan once and for all or show

For things to change in our country, we need to elect candidates who are educated, responsible and accountable. For this to happen, we need to ensure that all educated people (especially middle class) gets out and votes. At present we are not doing it, which results in jokers, idiots, murderers, dacoits etc get elected and run this country. What can you expect ???
WAKE UP INDIANS.

i agree with the points kalyan is raising.
while it is true that the comparison with
prithviraj chauhan and ghazni is not absolutely
correct as we were not a united country at the
time, however, our basic character is still unaltered.
we are still peace loving and are more than willing
to forgive and forget when the other side does
not reciprocate. Israel on the other hand
is not like us. They are also peace loving but
do not tolerate rubbish. they adopt a truely
ruthless policy of an eye for an eye. But I also
know that it is too difficult to change the attitude
or mindset of the nation. Perhaps we should have leaders like you in the future, that may change things
for the better.

I do not agree with kalyan... It is the unity and patience and peace loving attitude of India, which has taken the Country to its current position in the world... compare Pakistan with India in the world map... while 90% of the world respects and regards India and keeping in their high esteem, can you find even 10% of the world saying even a single good thing about Pakistan? Forget about US, who are opportunists to retain the upmanship...they will support anybody for that and ditch any time.
don't talk about Prithviraj and Vijayanagar since India was not a unified country at that time and was rules in pockets by empires, maharajas and sultans..
Today, we are all one, it is the largest democracy with freedom. Nobody can dare touch India now...forget about a war with Pakistan... With out patience level, we will still let them go...but for countries like Pakistan, growth, freedom, development, support etc. are a forgotten issue...

if we dont have killer instinct and that much peace loving then why having nuclear weapons at all and thereby isolated nuclear community?....if we are really an peace loving nation, then submit all our nuclear weapons to USA and let us stop missile development also....

Dear Kalyan, We were weak sect comparing to invaders, we were lacking courage or killing instinct and upgradation of war technology. Even today, we lack both the things. Do not compare with Pak or small country, we stand no where in technological upgradation comparing to advanced nations.
