This time India was caught lying with its hand in the cookie jar

Initially it said two of its air force planes crossed into Pakistan, pounded Balakot and killed "many terrorists."  Some Indian sources said "350 militants" in Pakistan were killed.   Didn't take long for the truth to emerge.  One Indian plane was shot down, its pilot captured, later freed, and the other plane vamoosed and crashed near the village of Budgam in occupied Kashmir.  No news what happened to that pilot.   All images on the two crashed planes circulated internationally while not a single evidence to show the pounding of the so-called Balakot camp.   

Quite red-faced about how the real story unfolded, India now threatens that its next potential escalation will include economic measures or militant attacks.   While no one is rattled at the idea of economic "sanctions" from poverty-stricken India, it's interesting to read that India finally acknowledged its own involvement in militant activities. 

Has anyone bothered to keep count of how many common Pakistanis have been butchered by RAW's intricate as well as brazen terror schemes in the past 3 decades starting from the "hammer group" in the mid 1980s?

Brothers in arms, Bibi in TelAviv has apparently cautioned and comforted Modi with new suggestions.
