For the first time in 45 years, India has lost soldiers (that too, 20 at the last count) to a Chinese attack with sticks, stones, rocks, and nail-studded clubs, even as machine guns, artillery, and tanks were lined up in the rear. Apparently, some Indian soldiers were beaten to death; some were pushed down a steep slope into the Galwan river below, and others died of hypothermia in the cold desert of Ladakh. China has given India a bloody nose in a most bizarre way.

Our immediate reaction is to rant: Boycotting Chinese goods, burning the effigy of Chinese President Xi
