The latest conflict erupted after a terrorist attack killed 40 Indian paramilitary earlier this month. India responded by bombing the Islamist group Jaish-e-Mohammed in Pakistan which lead to each nation raiding the other yesterday. More

  1. Well, if they do decide to have at each other India is likely to hurt Pakistan very very badly. The Indians while getting closer to the States, still have close military ties to the Russians so China is very unlikely to step into any conflict on behalf of the Paks. The powers will let it go on until the Paks are badly hurt then step in and call a ceasefire.

  2. So when ya slice off a part of your country and give it to ingrates – look at what that gets ya.

    Kill ’em now or later. You’re just putting off the fight and letting them get stronger when you appease people of this nature.

  3. Pakistan is one of those fake countries that came out of Britain’s fake guilt (even the name was made up) by the minority moslems of that pagan land.
    India was cobbled together from disparate parts by British might.
    East Pakistan (Bangladesh) nearly consumed itself in civil war and starvation after it obtained its “freedom” from the civilizing influence of Britain and is, today, another “People’s Republic” that has little to do with the people republic-ing anything.
    Nuclear weapons in their hands is analogous to straight razors in the hands of toddlers. There’s a direct path from the toilet (water closet) to the cesspool, and things CAN go from bad to worse. Both India and Pakistan need to sheathe their swords and try to ignore one another. Fighting amongst themselves will help none and murder many – and the actual people (humans on the ground) will gain nothing.
