Yeah, there has been a major naval build up between the 2 nations the last 10 years. Scary stuff.

As long as it stays a cold war that's good. It is when cold wars start to warm up that it starts getting bad.

There is a reason why they call it the Indian Ocean!

If it gets hot, I hope India maintains their name in the ocean!

Darn commies, there are 1 billion of them and nothing we can do about it!:damn:

FYI, this isn't exactly new. They have long viewed each other suspiciously, and it has gone hot in the past.
