Sorry, just to clarify, is that before they take off and needing repair, or after when they've been shot down by a proper fighter?

Isn't that being just a little bit provocative. You know that this will wind the English up. Let's face it, that's trolling.

Not really. Whatever happens he still is living in a country with no long term water supply, mass poverty and illiteracy and about to go to war with it's neighbours.

Not really pissed off at losing the contract, because it will be late delivered and over priced and the aircraft will be unreliable and falling out of the sky. And as for the £1Billion in aid every year, even your finance minister doesn't want it (see here[^]) But the restiction of visas for foreign students is all down to politicking.

That's very unfortunate, but true.

I find it plain stupid to state things like that. What is the point ?

WW1, WW2, French Indo-China, Algeria, Fench Congo, Ivory Coast, etc...Hardly great victories attained through air superiority. And even the Falklands were won by our Fat Lazy Harrier Jumps Jets and Tornado Strike Fighters rather than the Super Duper Étendard that the Argies used.

IMHO, Even when Indians did not need this aid, it was accepted to placate some political class in England. And England assumed that, this aid would help in future trade talks like this one. But the ultimate losers were the Tax payers from England.

So provocativing provoking the Englsih is forbidden now?

In the same way that posting such a thread about Indians (or insert nationality of choice) would be as well. You deliberately set out to provoke a nationalistic reaction - and that's trolling.

But I assumed that it was only forbidden when "Indian" was used to provoke. I assummed that Its Ok to provoke Aussies, English and to some extend Irish because thay have better sense of humour. If thats is not the case, I am guilty as charged. I will be waiting for the judgement sentence.

Errm, the aid was from the UK, not England. You'll aggravate Scotland, NI and Wales by assuming that only England contributed. This is why it's a good idea to stay away from politics in the lounge. Take this whole thread to the soapbox and it will be properly debated there.
