Engagement
Early reading. We have captured 6 original posts for this account, below the 8 we require before treating a median as settled. The numbers above describe what we have seen so far, not a finished profile of the account.
A typical post picks up 650 interactions against 733K followers, an engagement rate of 0.089%. Posts are seen about 33K times each, and 1.95% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 4.55% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 0.2 posts a day over the last 30 days, though only 10% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 20:00 UTC, and Tuesday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 6 posts sampled, 17% carry an image or video and 17% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 14K interactions, about 22x its own typical post. Only 6 original posts have been captured so far, fewer than the 8 posts we want behind a median before treating it as settled. Read the figures above as an early measurement of this account, not as a finished profile of it.

INDIAN LIVES MATTER.3 Indian ships have been attacked by the Americans and 3 innocent unarmed Indians murdered. Video clips show the ship was static. No transcripts of communications between ship and US Navy have been provided. 90% of Iran,s oil goes to China. Reportedly over 100 Chinese ships have Jumped this blockade. Not one Chinese or Russian ship has been struck. Just because India has gone out of its way to be friendly with US, it has responded by attacking our ships and murdering our sailors. Kissinger had rightly said- it is dangerous to be an enemy of US but it is FATAL to be a friend.There is a school of thought that IS LEAST CONCERNED WITH THE DEATH OF POOR INDIANS. Their deaths they feel should not poop the party in Europe https://t.co/alHY9kOfTW the initial response was to shrug it off and make a pro-forma protest without Calling the press. It was only when there was outrage in the Indian public did we gather the courage to protest loud and clear. Pak had made it a habit to kill unarmed Indians till we pushed back. Now the Americans are ushering in a new era of colonialism and gun boat diplomacy. There are those in India who would like to compete with Mulla Munir in licking Trumps shoes. Was 250 years of Colonization not enough? Can we kindly outgrow this slavish mentality and behave with the gravitas of a 10,000 years old civilizational state?Just see how China treated Trump.

There are some diehard Trump fans in this country who thought India could still kiss and make up with America even after all that it did to us. We had invested 1 bn $ for a 100 Tejas GE -404 engines. After 4 years we got just 2.instead of cancelling the order all together we placed orders for 200 more such engines! Now we got the ultimate shock when USA killed the Plans for AMCA. Like ninnies we had designed this aircraft around the hopes of getting the GE414 engines. To KILL this program US just raised the price of this engine from Rs 70 crores each to Rs 200 Crores each. Its clear as daylight US does not want India to have its own Vth Gen Stealth fighters. It will Throw a fit if we buy and produce the SU-57 Russian stealth fighter in India or buy Russian or Iranian oil. It is time to tell the US to go to blazes. A number of countries in the world are coming to this sober conclusion ( including Europe, Canada and Japan). Its time for India to show some SPINE

As a soldier I am gratified that India’s democracy has shown the world how to deal with CIA inspired coloured revolutions. Remember Tienan men square in 1989 when PLA was forced to use tanks to crush the students uprising?Closer home Sri Lanka, Bangladesh and Nepal had equally failed to deal with such coloured revolutions. So how did India do it? Most coloured revolutions identify a genuine cause/ https://t.co/bGH1hGs0cy Nepal and Sri Lanka it was abject corruption & neopotism, in Bangladesh it was 35% reservations for Mukti jodhas. In india they chose leakage of NEET https://t.co/dVhBzuDSz7 was a genuine cause that effected young students & their Middle class parents. In Bangla Desh Mohd Yunis was parachuted from Washington. In India youth Leaders were parachuted from Boston and Dubai and some remained in Germany. Phase one is this build up of anger on a genuine issue. Initially Govt was adamant that Mr Pradhan would not resign. That snow balled anger and Instagram was the prime platform. The agitation spread to many cities. Alarm bells Rang . The indian govt acted in an intelligent & sensitive manner to address the main cause of angst. Mr Pradhan was asked to resign and remedial legislation & measures announced. Meanwhile Playbook went into phase2 with introduction of over 2800 Anti- social elements to attack police and introduce violence. Policemen were viciously attacked. In Nepal, Iran and Bangladesh rooftop snipers had been used to kill both police and students. That would take it to level next for action against all police and law and order agencies. The original aim was forgotten in build up to mob lynching, looting and arson. India tripped up the agitation by addressing root causes and not letting violence escalate. Sourav Das did try to challenge the Supreme Court order of no FIRs against students but certainly against the Gundas & gangsters. His defiance gave the whole show away. It was the familiar playbook in action. It was not designed to set India’s exam system right but overthrow a duly elected govt. Indian govt has exhibited the sensitivity of Self- correction & taken the wind out of the sails of this incipient movement.

Iran has lost near 5000 people so far and its military resources heavily degraded. But Prof Robert Pepe says it is stronger now then when the war started. How? Because Iran now controls Gulf of Hormuz which it didn’t do till the US- Israeli attack.Israel has also paid a heavy price in this war. We are now getting concerned. Netanyahu certainly miscalculated and grossly underestimated Miltary power and will of Iran. Underestimating your enemy is a cardinal sin in war. Haifa refinery has taken a big hit. 2 days back Dimona residential complex and Arak towns were hit badly . Media reports indicate 5000 citizens wounded That is terrible for a state where the population is so small. Netanyahu said it was the worst day of his life.Yesterday the Dimona facilty with the nuclear reactor, Plutonium enrichment facility and weapons fabricating facility was targeted. Obviously there are no israeli reports on what was hit. There wont be . Iran claims it was in retaliation for Natanz and Busheher. Will Trump dump Israel and call a unilateral cease fire? Will Netanyahu go it alone?Time for this complete madness to END

Trump has been talking of peace in 2-3 days to calm the blood bath on the stock markets. He always uses the ruse of peace talks to hide preparations for attack. Two small US carrier Battle groups- the Tripoli and Boxer are steaming towards the Gulf. Some say they are to replace the USS Gerald Ford and Lincoln Aircraft carriers which have been hit and damaged by Iran and now on way out. Apparently Pentagon has proposed a very high risk- high payoff gamble. It could use Marines to take the Kharg island and in conjunction with Special Forces to neutralize Iran’s Anti ship missile battries and drones on the Northern Shores of Gulf of Hormuz.There is also a hare brained scheme to capture and fly out Iran’s 450 kg enriched Uranium stock pile! Most military experts give these Inordinately high risk ops 90% chance of failure. Yet Trump seems keen to try them out. It shows a Cynical lack of concern for the lives of Very high quality military manpower in the US Special Forces and marines. This could lead to heavy casualties among assaulting troops. We have all seen what drones have done in Ukraine. Trump has landed himself in a mess by his ill thought thru invasion of Iran. He would be well advised to cut costs and call it off even now. No wonder Joe Kent ( his CT head- a former Green beret ) has resigned. Never reinforce a failure. So far iran has shown escalation dominance. Haifa refinery and Tel aviv have been hit hard. 16 US aircraft are down., Two Air craft carriers damaged and forced to retreat. A2 AD will kick in and USS Tripoli and Boxer could well be welcomed by missiles/ drone swarms. Choppers are vulnerable to Russian Sams with Flare filters. Political masters must show greater concern for the lives of their servicemen

Iran told Mullah Munir no peace talks unless IsraeL hAD CEASEFIRE WITH HEZBOLLAH. So US got a ceasefire between israel and Lebenon. Fiinally Iran agreed to open the Straits of hormuz and come for Peacetalks. Munir informed Trump who went berserk. He wanted to show it as an abject surrunder by Iran. He said he wouild not lift the US Blockade and no payments of Irans frozen assetts. Trumps victory war dance cost him dearly. Within minutes iran said It was again closing Gulf of Hormuz and fired on Indian ships in the lead to go out. Iran has now refused to come for peace talks to islamabad. Vance IS LEFT HIGH AND DRY.THAT IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU ARE NOT SINCERE AND ALWAYS TAKING PEOPLE FOR A RIDE. In view of Mid term elections, Deadline of ceasefire and Ciongress deadlione of 60 days, Trump desperately needs an off ramp. He was getting one when he blew it all by Trying to humiliate Iran

Zelenski has had his country destroyed.His army has to kidnap Teenagers from the streets to force them to fight and die .Now he wants to fight Iran. He found India did not react to US killing of its sailors. So he has decided to attack and kill some more Indian sailors. Enough is enough. India will have to start hitting back. At the very least we must demand compensation and apology. If that is not forthcoming we must tell the Indian Navy to open fire on Some Ukranian merchant vessels. Ukraine has attacked over 160 Russian cargo ships and tankers.I am baffled as to why Russia has not reacted violently so far and allowed this bafoon To continue his stupid war dance

Unconfirmed media reports indicate that in recent missile attacks on US bases US has suffered major losses. 7 F-35 stealth fighters lost on ground in UAE Al dhafa air base on D -13 of war. On D-15 5 KC-135 tankers lost on Jebel air base in Saudi Arabia. Would be grateful if some one could fact check these for me. Iran also claims to have hit and damaged both US aircraft carriers Lincon and Ford. Also claims to have hit Ben Gurion airport in Israel very hard as also Haifa refinery. Grateful if friends could fact check these

Had Gone to Sundarbani in J&K To unveil a statue OF MY BATTALION (6 JaK Rif )hero( SubPraveen singh) who had Laid down his life in 1948 but captured an important picquet in Ladakh. He was awarded the Vrc posthumously. It was great to meet the boys and ex servicemen and fondly remember those days. The Steely Sixth had earned two MVCs in 1947- 48. Brig Rajinder singh MVC had saved J&k valley by Blowing up the Uri bridge and delaying the Pakistanis for crucial 72 hours in which J&K acceded to India and the Indian army flew in. The second MVC was to Brig Sher jang Thapa who Fought the siege of Skardu for six long months of a most heroic stand. We got one MVC and 3 Vrcs . only 48 men came out of that siege in Skardu. We must now take back Gilgit and Skardu. It belongs to us. My battalion defended it in 1947- 48. We had too few men then. Now there is no such https://t.co/QneaOcttOJ see the Republic coverage https://t.co/Z7lbaGBZIx

Die hard America fans in India were telling us how We were again best friends with US. Trump has Dispelled all such Fancy notions. He wants to impose 500% tarrifs on India for buying Russian oil. He called India And China hell holes.His War on Iran has caused us major economic harm. But these US lackeys still insist we should ditch Russia and Compete with Asif Munir in licking Trumps shoes. The US HOSTILITY is masked by Sweet talk to fool us. I think the real attitude is now apparent. It leaves India NO OPTION but to firmly join the RIC triangle to SAVE THE WORLD FROM THIS RAVING LUNATIC.Waiting for end of his tenure will not help because he is a puppet of the US deep state and Zionist lobby in America. There are many sane and Well meaning people in US who are calling Upon us and BRICS to take a Rightful srtand against Dangerous lunacy.Trumps running amok Is pushing the world into an economic DEPRESSION!
