your article deserves only 2 cents purely for the ink you would have wasted. I am not calculating the mental effort you have put in. come on! why waste other's time?!!
Indian media must be responsible not to rouse passions on the other side by predicting rather irresponsibly,without understanding that China is far too strong financially& militarily.Many a times silence would be the best weapon..
"The most belligerent sections of the Indian media"- we know these media Mr.Gupta is referrig here.
"all insecure powers in their front-yard, Australia to Japan and all the way westwards to India" -For his hate towards the present govt, he is even cursing/belittling the friendly nations
"unleashing our own angry grey moustaches and war-painted anchors". -Guptas hate towards Nagpur and CERTAIN channels
Overall the article is missing the message....its more of a hate on the present govt and govt friendly media houses.
The govt do not want to get into a war. why waste money on arms and millitary . is this not an another way of putting money in the pockets. we want to finish this chinese bully

If the govt is always planning of extracting money from poor people and common people we want to see that our hard earned money supposed to be used for buying weapons and training and paying armies should have some kind of ROI.
wrote on Rediff just a few days ago that the most glaring disadvantages India starts with against China are that, for most stretches of the 3500 km long India China border, the Chinese enjoy positional, altitudinal and infrastructural superiority over India !
Now, the Chinese could just be biding their time over Doklam. They made a reference to their above mentioned advantage along with one of their calls to India to withdraw all its soldiers from Doklam.
If India retains the remaining 40 odd soldiers in Doklam for long, China could indeed make one or more incursions into Indian territory elsewhere along the border where it enjoys strategic advantage (such as that of height). They could perhaps be waiting just to shape world opinion to the view that India is the aggressor before launching such incursions. As Shekhar Gupta implies, the Chinese would be hoping that Indian troops fire the first shot !
What follows after such a Chinese incursion could be a long and slow low intensity war of attrition with both countries making incursions into each others territory at spots of their choice !
Such a prospect could be devastating for the struggling Indian economy while the Chinese are far better placed to absorb its effects !
The Indian govts silence and repeated pleas for talks in the face of persistent and belligerent war cries by the Chinese media stem from these realities.

As I reminded you earlier, the stink you get could be from your neighbourhood, where 70 % of all residents defecate in the open as per Census survey 2011 !
Why China Has Order To Collect Bood From Blood Doners in Blood Banks ?? Why China Shifted Its Blood Banks In "TIBET" ?? We Indians Are Ready To Face Any War.

Wrong. If war happens, it is most likely to be a low intensity war of attrition lasting for long. WMDs are very unlikely to be even considered for use.
