Operation Sindoor Beats Operation Epic Fury On Every Metric

Iran: Podcasts



Operation Sindoor Beats Operation Epic Fury On Every Metric.

Instead of focusing on a vague climate of fear (which India has always been aware of and has been articulate about... I mean, Pakistan is Iran with nukes), India responded to a specific terror attack.
It collected all the facts, sent teams to hunt the perpetrators who had melted into the surrounding jungles, and then gave the Indian Army full play. Modi was not micromanaging day by day. Neither was his Defense Minister. The PM and the Defense Minister gave the mandate. The army carries it out.
India did not attack with aircraft carriers and fighter jets. That is World War II technology. India used missiles like Iran is using. And the first, and in India's view the final, wave of the attack was over in 20 minutes. We are done here. We just destroyed all your terrorist camps. We have no further designs. Pakistan could have taken that off-ramp. Pakistan chose not to take it. And so India had to expand its devastating attacks for a few more days.
India then allowed for messengers. Yes, the US was involved. So were the Gulf countries. The ceasefire was reached directly. It was a direct India-Pakistan dialogue over the phone. That is the cleanest way to do it. Kashmir is not an issue. And the India-Pakistan skirmish is bilateral.
It was a clean-cut ceasefire but the operation continues. Because it was a pause, it was not peace. India is proactively seeking terrorists hiding in Kashmir, not waiting for them to attack. Many are being nabbed.
The operation was picture-perfect, although most Indians wish it had gone on for a few more days.
In stark contrast, Operation Epic Fury has been Trump and Hegseth micromanaging furiously and then firing the generals when the picture looks messy.
It can be argued that Iran is more complex. Israel is a Manipur-sized country. Most Indians could not find Manipur on a map. And in Iran's case the danger is more acute. Iran has been trying its best to get a bomb, and it will not hesitate to use it. That cannot be allowed.
Unless spiritual clarity on Islam is achieved by the Iranian diaspora, we will keep talking tactics and strategy endlessly. You can have political parties and elections and still not achieve liberty. Proof: Pakistan.
Islam is the anti-religion. Islam is the religion of the Devil. Allah is not God. Allah is the Devil having distorted who or what God is. God is omnipotent. Allah as described in the Koran does not have the power to enter human history. Sharia Law is utter tyranny. That is the Devil's way. God's way is liberty. The Devil's way is tyranny. There is no historic Muhammad. Runners run. Swimmers swim. Prophets prophesy. What prophecies have been attributed to Muhammad? There are none. Isaiah was a prophet. Some of his prophecies are still coming true today.
The office of the Ayatollah does not make the Ayatollah head of state of Iran. That office claims all the earth. Blocking the Strait of Hormuz is peak terrorism. Because it spreads fear across the entire earth. As per the Islamic Republic, countries like the UAE are not Muslim. You are only Muslim if you are under the thumb of the Ayatollah. That is the definition. A Muslim obeys. Obeys who? The Ayatollah. Those protesting are no longer obeying and become worthy of death. Those protesting are no longer Muslim and become worthy of death. The opposition in Iran has 30,000 names. If your son did not come back home, your son did not come back home.

China's Role In Operation Sindoor

 


China's role in Operation Sindoor, the Indian military operation launched on May 7, 2025, in response to the April 22, 2025, Pahalgam terror attack, has been a subject of significant discussion but remains complex and layered. The operation involved precision strikes by India targeting nine terrorist infrastructure sites in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK). Below is an analysis of China's role based on available information, addressing whether it was actively involved:

China's Role in Operation Sindoor
  1. Diplomatic Stance and Public Statements:
    • China expressed regret over India's military strikes, describing them as "regrettable" and urging both India and Pakistan to exercise restraint to prioritize peace and stability. The Chinese Foreign Ministry emphasized that India and Pakistan are neighbors and called for de-escalation to avoid further complicating the situation.
    • Chinese state media, such as Xinhua and Global Times, framed the conflict in a way that often supported Pakistan's narrative, with some reports alleging civilian casualties from Indian strikes and downplaying the terrorist infrastructure targeted. For instance, Xinhua claimed 26 people were killed in "civilian settlements," a narrative that contrasted with India's assertion of targeting terror camps.
    • China's diplomatic response included a call for an "impartial investigation" into the Pahalgam attack and reaffirmed support for Pakistan's "legitimate security concerns," signaling its continued strategic alignment with Pakistan.
  2. Military and Technical Support to Pakistan:
    • Reports indicate that China provided Pakistan with significant military and technical support during the conflict, though the extent of active involvement during Operation Sindoor itself is debated. According to a Bloomberg report citing an Indian defense research group, China assisted Pakistan by reorganizing its radar and air defense systems and adjusting satellite coverage over India to enhance Pakistan's ability to detect Indian military movements.
    • Pakistan deployed Chinese-supplied military hardware, including JF-17 fighter jets, PL-15 air-to-air missiles, HQ-9 and HQ-16 air defense systems, and Wing Loong-II drones armed with AR-1 missiles. However, these systems underperformed significantly, with Indian forces bypassing or neutralizing them effectively, particularly with BrahMos missiles.
    • The poor performance of Chinese-supplied systems, such as the HQ-9 failing to intercept Indian missiles and the YLC-8E anti-stealth radar being destroyed, was highlighted as a strategic embarrassment for China, raising questions about the reliability of its defense exports.
  3. Allegations of Direct Involvement:
    • There is no conclusive evidence that China was directly involved in the conflict in a military capacity, such as deploying its own forces or assets. China's military dismissed rumors that it sent Y-20 transport aircraft with arms to Pakistan during the standoff, labeling such claims as "rumors" and warning against spreading misinformation.
    • Analysts, including retired Lt. Gen. Vinayak Patankar, suggested that China is unlikely to engage directly in an India-Pakistan conflict due to economic and strategic risks, preferring to use Pakistan as a proxy. China’s support is seen as strategic, focusing on bolstering Pakistan’s capabilities to counter India without direct intervention.
    • Some unverified claims on X speculated about deeper Chinese involvement, with one post humorously suggesting China supplied "faulty" equipment to Pakistan, though such claims lack substantiation and should be treated as inconclusive.
  4. Geopolitical and Strategic Context:
    • China’s long-standing "all-weather" alliance with Pakistan shapes its role. Beijing has historically provided Pakistan with over 80% of its arms imports, including missiles, fighter jets, and drones, and has invested heavily in infrastructure projects like the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC).
    • China’s response to Operation Sindoor reflects a balancing act: supporting Pakistan while avoiding direct confrontation with India, a major regional power. Chinese commentators expressed concerns about the conflict escalating into a nuclear crisis, urging international mediation to complicate India’s diplomatic position.
    • China’s strategic interests in Pakistan, including control over parts of PoK (e.g., Gilgit-Baltistan) and its investments in CPEC, heighten its stake in the region’s stability. However, its actions appear calculated to maintain influence without risking a broader conflict with India, especially given the economic and military costs of direct involvement.
  5. Counterterrorism Narrative vs. Actions:
    • China’s public stance against terrorism is at odds with its support for Pakistan, which India accuses of sponsoring terrorism. For example, China has blocked UN Security Council proscriptions of Pakistan-based terrorists and diluted resolutions on the Pahalgam attack, highlighting a contradiction between its counterterrorism rhetoric and actions.
    • This duality was noted as casting a shadow over China’s role as a leader in the Global South and a potential peace broker, as it prioritized its alliance with Pakistan over impartiality.
Was China Actively Involved?
China’s involvement in Operation Sindoor was primarily indirect, centered on providing military and technical support to Pakistan before and during the conflict. While China supplied critical defense systems and satellite support, there is no definitive evidence of active military participation, such as deploying troops or directly managing operations. Its role was largely strategic and diplomatic, aimed at bolstering Pakistan’s capabilities while avoiding direct entanglement. The underperformance of Chinese-supplied systems during the operation has been a significant setback for Beijing’s reputation as an arms exporter, suggesting that its involvement, while substantial, was not decisive in the conflict’s outcome.
Conclusion
China played a supportive role for Pakistan through pre-existing military supplies, technical assistance, and diplomatic backing, but it stopped short of active military involvement in Operation Sindoor. Its actions reflect a strategic calculus to maintain influence in South Asia while avoiding escalation with India. The operation exposed vulnerabilities in Chinese military technology, which may have broader implications for China’s arms export market and regional influence.
