Speaking of AYMAN ... * BHARAT RAKSHAK > INDIA COULD BE KEY TARGET FOR NEW AL-QAEDA CHIEF | AL-ZAWAHIRI UNDER PRESSURE TO ESTABLISH POWER OVER JIHADISTS. ARTIC = due to long-standing ideo feuds, differences between Egyptian, Yemeni, + Saudi Arabian Islamists + MilTerr Groups, ZAWAHIRI AS OBL'S CHOSEN SUCCESSOR MAY BE FORCED TO MAKE RAPPROCHEMENT WID INDIA-HATING PAKISTANI = AFPAK MILTERRS TO CONTINUE WID AL-QAEDA'S AGENDA, an act or decision which could see Zawahiri-led AQ supporting violent Jihad agz India [South, SE Asia]??? * NEWS KERALA > MILITARY TACTICS OF AYMAN ZAWAHIRI SHOULD NOT BE DISCOUNTED: EXPERTS. Don't underestimate the A-Man = Z-Man in anything. versus * NEWSMAX > {Ronald Kessler] AL-QAEDA BECOMING MORE DESPERATE, hence more likely to commit to the launching of deadly Terrstrikes agz Americans + CONUS per se. In any case, most Perts anticipate AYMAN TO CONTINUE WID JIHAD AGZ AMERICA + AMER INTERESTS. * TIMES OF INDIA > [PAK COAS]KAYANI FACES NO [PAK Army-led = Colonels]COUP THREAT OVER OSAMA RAID, SAYS US. * DEFENCE.PK/FORUMS > US NEEDS PAKISTAN MORE THAN PAKISTAN NEEDS US. Post-Osama. * BHARAT RAKSHAK > INDIA "COLD START" NUKED BY PAKISTAN? ARTIC = ... > PAK new NASER, HATIF-9 nuke-capable Tactical BMS is supplied by CHINA, strongly inferring that Beijing has accepted LINEAL, PROXY TACTICAL NUCLEAR WARFARE AS "REALISTIC/FEASIBLE" AGZ INDIA IN SOUTH ASIA. > PAK may be too willing to resort to TacNucWar agz India - situation could easily devol into PAK-UNCONTROLLABLE STRATEGIC NUCLEAR WARFARE [Indo-Pak, Indo-Pak-China, Global], espec given Pak's belief that anti-Cold Start TacNucWar could deter any Indian mil retaliation for new Mumbai-style/26-11 terror attacks. IOW, INDJUH BELIEVES THAT PAK BELIEVES THAT PAK TERROR PROXIES COULD STRIKE INDIA WID MAJOR ATTACK(S) WHILE ALSO BELIEVING THAT PAK'S NUKE ARSENAL WILL DETER INDIA FROM ANY MIL COUNTERRESPONSE. Sub-IOW, Pak can unilater attack India via terror, but India can't attack Pak back unless India is willing to risk major war agz Pak "Big Brother" + BFF China. > Author believes India = Indian Navy should dev, deploy 3-4 FBM Subs in the Arabian Sea to counter Pak's anti-Cold Start efforts. > Author believes that India = Indian Army should undergo Total Mechanization + modernization, espec its Cold Start "Battle Groups", as the only solution to Pak anti-Cold Start Tacnukes. > India must give new consideration to any + all NON-TRADITIONAL, PREFERABLY NON-MIL DIPLOMATIC SOLUTIONS/ALTERNATIVES TO "NEUTRALIZE", BUT NOT DESTROY, PAKISTAN. Sub-Sub-IOW, INDJUH MUST DEV + EXPAND ITS GLOBAL/STRATEGIC NUCLEAR, CONVENTIONAL REACH, NO LONGER JUST "REGIONAL"??? |
