I must say the Indians this time have made such a grand spectacle of themselves over halucinated fears towards its NO. 1 neighbor!
I even think many of our MPers here are capable of triggering such fervid Indian responses if you ever care to emulate what the Chinese poster done! Super easy for such sensentive type of people!

An article called “If China takes a little action, the so-called Great Indian Federation can be broken up” that was published on chinaiiss.org (China’s International Strategic Studies website) has sparked heated discussion in India’s mainstream media. However, the website’s director has clarified that the opinion in the article is only personal, and does not represent the website.
Posted on April 8, the article stated that if China and India are competing to become the center of Asia, the suggestion was to break India up. The article had triggered nationalistic sentiments in India and was quoted extensively by major Indian media, such as the Economic Times of India, the Times of India, and the Rediff website, a leading website in the country, saying this represented the opinion of Chinese think tanks.
The Times of India published an article, “Break India, says China think tank”, and the Economic Times of India wrote one titled “China's India policy: Murder with borrowed knives”, both of them saying the website is a leading think tank in China, whose views “count with the Beijing’s Communist administration.”
In response, the director of chinaiiss.org told the Global Times that the article that infuriated Indians is actually an old article written by a Chinese Internet user who is neither affiliated with the think tank nor with the website.
He also explained that the website is not related to the International Institute of Strategic Studies in China. Reporters from the Global Times later searched the article online, and found it had appeared in personal blogs and forums in China for several years. The earliest published date was November 30, 2006, on Tianya, a leading Chinese BBS, by a web user named Queen Park Cruiser, with the title “Defeat India from Bangladesh”.
Wang Dehua, from the Institute of South and Centre Asia Studies at the Shanghai Municipal Center for International Studies told the Global Times that an increasing number of web users expressing themselves online signals China’s improving democracy. However, there are always a small number of web users who hold extreme viewpoints. It is common in every country and the Indian media should not consider it as official opinions – otherwise it will mislead India’s official communications with China.
