adjunct article to "Sino-Indian claims, what is the truth."

 Here is a little background facts to Sino-Indian claims. 

In the 1760s to 1780s England and France fought fiercely to control India as a colony. England evolved as victor and France was booted out of India. At that time India consisted of over a hundred small independent states with over a hundred twenty different local languages. England was able to exploit the differences among the different weak states  and took easy control of them under British rule which amalgamated them together under a unitary political unit of British India. Then all these small Indian states were unified by the British which intriduced the Englis Language as the official language,  the lingua franca of British India. So this is one beneficial facet of British rule.

At this period of time practically all the western European countries were fiercely spreading far and wide across the seas to grab lands and territories from defenseless natives. Russia another European country was spreading its claws and pincers across continental Asia into China and the Far East. Russia was also spreading south into Chinese Xinjiang in which Tibet lies further to its south. England was apprehensive of the Russians and so it took a forward policy of acquiring parts of Tibet to forestall Russian incursions into Tibet. England took Aksai Chin in South Western Tibet and large chunks of South Eastern Tibet including the province of Tawang in which present India now renamed it as Utter Pradesh. China had from the very bdeginning protested against the British illegal grabbing of Chinese lands. There were frequent negotiations from time to time between England and China for the return of these stolen lands from China. But the British intentionally dragged and stalled the negotiations to no conclusions. The reason is clear for the British had no intention to leave India. However after the Second World War in 1945 British occupation of India was so untenable because England was impoverished nd bankrupt. It was forced to grant India independence in 1947 before settling all the border issues with China.

Following India's independence India did not want to negotiate with China for the return of Chinese lands illegally taken by the British. India intend to inherit the mantle of British imperialism. In fact  in the 1950s Nehru and some Indian politicians and the Indian military were deliberating of occupying  Tibet as an Indian colony. It was so preposterous of the Indians that they provoked the Sino-India border war in 1962 thinking that it could defeat a very weak China which just evolved from decades of Western invasions and the Second World War cum the Korean War 1950-1953 imposed on China by the Americans and its 25 allied countries.

So the present China-India border issues is actually the seeds of divide and rule planted by the British. Nevertheless China was prepared to negotiate with India on a give and take basis just as it had settled all border isuues with all other 14 Chinese neighbouring countries. However a recalcitrant India would have none of that for it stubbornly  insist on retaining the stolen Chinese territories thus assuming the mantle of British imperialism. Hopefully in future reasons will prevail and the Sino-India border issues will be settled amicably. Otherwise the evil United States and its Western hoodlum allies will exploit and instigate an open warfare between India and China to the benefit of the Americans.

  1. In the 1700s to 1836 China under Emperor Kangsi nd Emperor Chien Long was able to repulse all Western, Russian and Japanese encroachments on Chinese territories. At that time England, France and Russia could not take even an inch of Chinese lands. England was forced to stay out of Tibet and Russia was forced to stay out of Lake Baikal and all the Chinese lands to the north of Heilongjiang river and all the territories fronting the Pacific Ocean where the rich gigantic Chinese island of Sakhalin is situated.

    But in later years due to the decalence of subsequent Chinese emperors who did not bother to protect the Chinese borders, the hordes of European and Russian invaders began to probe and marched into Chinese territories with impunity. The British took parts of Tibet in Aksai Chin and South Eastern Tibet of the Tawang province. The Russians were even more greedy and aggressive in walloping and swallowing Chinese territories by the millions of square miles. Russia took the Ili province of Chinese Xinjiang and from 1689 t0 1946 Russia took away all the Chinese lands around Lake Baikal which includes the province of Tannu Tuva and all the lands north of the Heilongjiang River up to the Ussuri River fronting thePacific Ocean which include the Chinese island of Sakhalin. In the meantime in 1875 Japan took away the Chinese islands of Liu Chiu Dao which they renamed it as Okinawa, while France made inroads into Southern China and incorporated some Chinese lands into French Indo-China. During this choatic period of the 1880s Germany took away the Chinese province of Shantung as Germany's colony.

    The European powers described this scrambled for Chinese territories as cutting the Chinese melon to be shared and controlled by the Western countries and Japan. Thus China sufferred more than a century of humiliation which must one day be redressed to restore Chinese sovereignty over her former territories and to restore Chinese pride,selfrespect and dignity.

  3. Under American instigation India provoked the China - India border war in 1962. India thought it could win the war easily against the poorly armed Chinese peasant army.

    The Indian army kept on encroaching on Chinese lands in Tibet inspite of constant Chinese warnings to the Indians not to do so. As the arrogant Indians threw caution to the winds and marched deeper into Chinese territories China could not help but to fight back and repulse them. The Indian armies were routed by the Chinese peasant army which marched into the proximity of the Indian capital of Delhi. The Chinese army captured almost ten thousand Indian soldiers as prisoners. The Indian prisoners were well treated by the Chinese who provided them with good food and hot drinks. Their guns, rifles and canons were cleaned and polished and duly returned to the Indians before sending them back across the border. If in a similar situation had the Indian soldiers were captured by the Americans or Russians or Japanese they would surely face certain death by the firing squad. However, the Indians are not grateful for they still continue to be troublesome at the borders provoking troubles and skirmishes all the time and of course under American instigation.

  4. The Chinese in 1962 thought they were dealing with human beans so treated them kindly.

    They did not know that they were dealing with snakes. And snakes would be slimy and sneaky and would bite back like snakes.

    The Chinese must forget about being kind to snakes and thinking snakes would return kindness and sincerity with the same.

    See how cocky the snakes are, everyday talking about how tough they are, wanting to start another war and psyching themselves that they would win.

    Now they are telling the whole world they are ready to defeat China. Hope they are not silly enough to repeat another 1962 and get bashed again and then cry again that they were not ready. Everyone today heard them clearly that they are ready and all prepared to go to war with China and to win.
