Key Snippets: Imminence of War: War seems imminent in South Asia going by current indicators. Short of a formal declaration of war, India seems determined and poised to take on directly by the horns, the strategic and military provocations thrown against her by Pakistan. The imminence of war has also been spurred by the dynamics of Indian public opinion which is pressurising the Government of India to take the war option to put an end to an incessant campaign of proxy war launched by Pakistan. That Pakistan has to be dealt with militarily, today, enjoys bi-partisan political support. This once again has been brought about by the force of Indian public opinion ..... India therefore has to rely on its own military strengths and capabilities to impose restraint on Pakistan, by inflicting irreparable damage, irrespective of costs. In short, India’s public opinion today has reached a ‘zero tolerance’ level of Pakistan’s proxy war. It has become over critical of its own Government of having over-relied on the United States to restrain the terrorist-state of Pakistan. . If India’s overall military aim is to end the Pakistan proxy war and its enlargement, it should incorporate the following major military components: * Destruction or crippling of Pakistan’s war waging capabilities. * Destruction of Pakistan’s defence production infra-structure. * Destruction of facilities of terrorists organizations HQs and their leadership. * Accord priority to destruction of Pakistan's economic and communications infrastructure. *********************************************** There, of course is much more, but I will let you read it. Please bear in mind, this is just an opinion paper written by a journalist, but it does show at leaste some of the mind set in India. |

However if we started bombing, Pakistan would erupt with internal strife, the militants would use that to further agitate hostilities with India and next thing you know Pakistan is destroyed and potentially India as well. Its a fucking complicated powder keg in my assessment, i dont think any wars are going to break out anytime soon. I think its obvious al Qaida would love to agitate it to full scale war to draw attention off the rest of Pakistan, but then again, would that cause a distraction for us to move into northern Pakistan? Who knows. Then that could put our troops in potential nuclear harms way. |
But, Double standards abound with the US relations with other countries. |

Last month, a wing just "fell off" a plane that they just repaired the fuel line on.... That, of course is just speculation. But they have said that the turn around time for these planes does not allow for adequet repair |
