		Worse, the People's Liberation Army (PLA) embarrassed Vajpayee by intruding deep into Arunachal Pradesh and torturing a group of Indian security personnel it had arrested and disarmed even as Vajpayee was in China being feted by the communist leadership and exulting over his visit.
		That the PLA's intrusion was premeditated was demonstrated by the official Chinese reaction that was harsh, unpalatable and undiplomatic.
		Yet another explanation is that incursions were timed to force India to induct more troops into the region to preempt further Chinese incursions - a move that further lessened the prospect of India acceding to the US request for a division-size force in Iraq.
