This is all the region needs right now but India must maintain the right to defend itself.

Both of them are nuclear powers.

[Jimbuna]

As are quite a number of other nations.

Having nukes and the willpower to use them can and are two entirely different entities.

The terrorist training camp was only there twelve years, if only Pakistan had a bit more time to take care of it themselves.

The other nations do not generate incidents by conducting air attacks in each other's territory without proper prior negotiation.


The point I am trying to make is that while this incident did not escalate we should still be aware of the dangers those incidents create. Especially in the Indo-Pakistan relationship, where Pakistan's nuclear use threshhold is low and civilian positive control is questionable.

I'm well aware of the dangers and what you meant but recent history shows both parties are never going to become the best of friends and I should imagine neither side would be willing to give advance warning of air strikes.

Pakistan has vowed revenge so now we wait and hope the potential escalation and further retalaitory actions will be minimal.

Pakistan is a known Muslim terror supporter, a breeding ground of jihadists and militant extremists that gets cloned in its radical religous schools due to an unlimited supoply in angry young men, and Pakistan also needs to be mentioned in combination with nuclear proliferation.

So tell all your warnings to India to Pakistan instead. From their soil the attack was laucnhed, and do not tell me that Pakistan did not know of it. They did attack India and killed 40+ of its security personnel by the use of "bucaneers", that way waging war without wanting to be called out for it. In my book Pakistan lets the Muslims terrorists wage a proxy war against India.

It were terrorists hosted by Pakistan since long that struck first here, like many times before. And you have the nerve to warn India of retaliating...? India did not start it - India saw its people getting killed in significant numbers.

Plus, Jim needs to maintain his supply of curry. I suspect this is some sort of nefarious plot by British or Aussie cricket....
