I was there in the room. It was perfectly normal banter ...and a comment from the current day Charlie Wilson needed a response.
BTW- Foreign Minister to the senator; not Jaishankar to Senator; bad form #Westlessness
What is the best strategic logic for Jaishankar being rude to an influential US Senator? That by being rude you send a deterrent message to other potential interlopers? By being rude you signal you won’t compromise under pressure? By being rude you win domestic support?

It’s clear from the discussion in the terror capital that they somehow want to declare this morning beating that they got (another in the last 3 days) as some illusory victory they can sell to their people and hope that India gives them an off ramp. They know Indian Military has toyed with their over rated Turkish drones and Chinese air defences and visited their city at will. And unlike them - India upto now has only attacked terror clans and military that enables them - not the civilians … could be terrible for them if India escalates

Some would get this … from the #GodFather
“But let me say this. I am a superstitious man, a ridiculous failing but I must confess it here. And so if some unlucky accident should befall my youngest son, if some police officer should accidentally shoot him, if he should hang himself in his cell, if new witnesses appear to testify to his guilt, my superstition will make me feel that it was the result of the ill will still borne me by some people here. Let me go further. If my son is struck by a bolt of lightning I will blame some of the people here. If his plane should fall into the sea or his ship sink beneath the waves of the ocean, if he should catch a mortal fever, if his automobile should be struck by a train, such is my superstition that I would blame the ill will felt by people here. Gentlemen, that ill will, that bad luck, I could never forgive. But aside from that let me swear by the souls of my grandchildren that I will never break the peace we have made.”

Canadian leader of opposition has used this incident to call him out as a China sympathiser …. By the way good angle to pursue on this case as well
And what he said is also what each country said - “show the evidence - complete your investigation”… each one has publicly asked for investigation …clearly which was lacking before #JustinTrudeau decided to go public
“we have conveyed”…. Is diplomatic equivalent of saying … we heard and we passed it on. …
