Chinese PLA Wants To Advance And Improve Defence Ties With India



Chinese military  said it is working to advance its ties with the defence forces of India, even as it intends to strengthen its already "multi-dimensional" relationship with the Pakistani military.In a 41-page "white paper" outlining the policies and perceptions of world's largest standing military of 2.3 million personnel, the People's Liberation Army (PLA) said it intends to work at building trust with its neighbouring countries."China has strengthened military relations with its neighbouring countries," said the PLA policy paper."It conducts friendly exchanges with the DPRK (North Korea) and the ROK (South Korea) militaries, attaches importance to Sino-Japanese defence exchanges, strengthens multi-dimensional Sino-Pakistani military exchanges and cooperation, works to advance the Sino-Indian military relationship," the paper released to the media by its top military brass said.While PLA shares very close strategic links with its all-weather ally Pakistan, it has also in the recent past tried to enhance ties with the Indian military as part of wider attempts to improve overall relations between the two countries.The process suffered a reverse last year after India, in response to the denial of visa by China to its top General B S Jaswal on the ground that he headed troops in Jammu and Kashmir, which it regards as disputed territory. 



He was to come to Beijing to attend a bilateral meeting.Following this, India called off its defence exchanges with PLA, even though Chinese Defence Ministry continues to maintain that its military ties with India were intact.The issue was expected to figure in next month's meeting between Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and Chinese President Hu Jintao on the sidelines of Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa (BRICS) at the Chinese island of Sanya.China had also promised to review its policy to issue stapled visas to residents of J and K.Besides this, the paper, which is issued every year said China faced an increasingly "volatile" Asian region, in the backdrop of attempts by US to expand its footprints."Profound changes are taking shape in the Asia-Pacific strategic landscape. Relevant major powers are increasing their strategic investment... The United States is reinforcing its regional military alliances and increasing its involvement in regional security affairs. Suspicion about China, interference and countering moves against China from the outside are on the increase," it said.It reiterated that China's national defence policy is "defensive" in nature and said the pursuit of such a national defence policy is determined by China's development path.

Pakistani JF-17 A Thunder OR A Blunder

Pakistan has witnessed new defense acquisitions in this decade than any other, and in the center of it all is the new fighter which was designed by China with partial funding from Pakistan. It is formally known as JF-17 Thunder. When the fighter was in development, Pakistani online communities were jumping with excitement comparing it with its arch rival India’s modern combatants Su-30MKI, Mig-29S & Mirage-2000H. There were claims of it featuring western Radars and long range missiles, & Chinese ordering some due to its superior capabilities. But the reality is far from it. China having spent significant amount of money into a fighter which it is never going to use, most probably forced Pakistan to accept its avionics to offset some its development costs. Chinese who are known for their self reliance first and quality next, are further downgrading JF-17s capabilities with their poorly copy-pirated avionics. Along with their dubious weapons, any chance of JF

Mossad & CIA Committed 9-11: Italian President Francesco Cossiga

Source: http://www.rumormillnews.com/cgi-bin/archive.cgi?read=114778 Former Italian President Francesco Cossiga, who revealed the existence of Operation Gladio, has told Italy’s oldest and most widely read newspaper that the 9-11 terrorist attacks were run by the CIA and Mossad, and that this was common knowledge among global intelligence agencies. The evidence that Mossad planned 911 using Arab patsies is overwhelming; Mossad were caught filming the attack from Liberty Park and then later said on Israeli TV that they were sent there to document (they along with nearly 200 Mossad were rounded up and sent back to Israeli in the weeks following the attack, preventing the FBI from questioning them). Only 5 Israeli's died in the WTC attack; 3 on the airplanes and 2 in the buildings. It is a fact unexplainable by Zionists apologists that Idigo, and Israeli messaging service sent a warning in Hebrew worldwide that a terror attack would happen in a few hours on the da

India Planned Attack On Pak Navy Mehran Base To Kill Chinese Engineers

The terrorist attack on Karachi's Mehran Naval Station on May 22 was conceived and launched by India with the primary objective of killing the Chinese engineers present there, a Pakistani newspaper has claimed, citing 'informed sources'. Four to six Taliban terrorists had entered PNS Mehran on May 22, destroying two maritime surveillance aircraft and killing ten military personnel during their 17-hour siege of the naval air base. "India is the only country in the region that feels troubled by the Pakistan Navy, which had awfully beaten the Indian Navy in Operation Dwarka of 1965. Since then, it has been an earnest desire of India to harm the Pakistan Navy but it was perhaps not possible on the battle front, hence it struck the PNS Mehran," The News quoted sources as saying.
