ISLAMABAD/WASHINGTON, May 8 (Reuters) - A top Chinese-made Pakistani fighter plane shot down at least two Indian military aircraft on Wednesday, two U.S. officials told Reuters, marking a major milestone for Beijing’s advanced fighter jet.

An Indian Air Force spokesperson said he had no comment when asked about the Reuters report.

    But that doesn’t mean I’m going to take pity on Pakistan and denounce how my country is responding to their aggression. Fuck Pakistan.

    I argued about the response to the massacre (which, by the way, hasn’t been conclusively linked to Pakistan so there’s no proof of “aggression”) with the other guy so you can just see that. Here I just wanna point out that no matter how accurate or justified the Indian response was, Modi will use this as an opportunity to curtail democracy and consolidate power further. Therefore, cheering on the strikes as “responding to aggression” is playing right into Modi’s hand. If you want to keep what little remains of your democratic rights you have to start pushing back on this now.
