CHINA MAY ATTACK INDIA BEFORE 2012- INDIAN DEFENCE REVIEW

New Delhi 12 July 2009

The Communists are losing their grip over China. The Chinese government is facing unprecedented internal dissent, growing unemployment and financial problems.

And to divert people's mind from these problems, China will launch an attack on India by 2012.

This assessment has been made by Bharat Verma- Defence analyst and editor of the Indian Defence Review.

Verma explains that such an attack will serve multiple objectives. He said, "China will launch an attack on India before 2012."

There are multiple reasons for a desperate Beijing to teach India the final lesson, thereby ensuring Chinese supremacy in Asia in this century.

Also, establishing their supremacy in the region has become crucial for China because of "The growing irrelevance of Pakistan, China's right hand that operates against India on their behest"

Verma goes on to say that, "Above all, China is worried over the growing alliance of India with the US and the West, because the alliance has the potential to create a technologically superior counterpoise. All these concerns of Chinese Communists are best addressed by waging a war against pacifist India to achieve multiple strategic objectives."
