haahh. Man you ought to read beyond the basic high school books about Indian history.
Nehru or Vajpai were no kids on the block. They may make statements, but Indian baboos and the generals were never napping. I think you are now belittling Indian intelligence.
That's not good.
Indian leadership is good at playing chess. Every once in a while the best players get check mated. it doesn't mean the loser was napping.
namaste Bahi log.
Keep believing that if you want to :)
Bottomline is that 1962/1965 was/is not the same as 1971/1999/2009. I daresay our media sometimes errs on the side of hyper-reacting to perceived threats from China (and to a lesser extent Pak) but thats anyday better than the common man being lulled into a false sense of security by the country's leaders.
