Be realistic, this isn't 1999 we live in a different world now. Pakistan's days of crossing the LoC and calling its soldiers 'freedom fighters' are long gone. A terrorist attack or two? maybe. Another Kargil? LOL!
That's the whole point buddy, nobody's worried. India has no interest in 'azad Kashmir'. Pakistan's only card was/is terrorism and even that's been gradually brought down to a minimum post 9/11. Sure LeT can pull off stunts like 26/11 every now and then, but how long do you think it'll be before...
Anyone who's lived in the middle east knows that 'potential superpower' is the absolute last thing Arabs think of when it comes to South Asia. Wake up and smell the coffee already.
Thanks, you stole the words right out of my mouth.
FTA's, nuclear technology (despite the NPT, lol), 4.5 gen fighters, 5th gen fighters, a seat on the UNSC AND Kashmir.

The Haqqani affair and its aftermath – The Express Tribune
LOL! You really think the...
This isn't about China, its about India consolidating its hold on its own territory.
Parts of India are undoubtedly as bad if not worse than sub-Saharan Africa, what's important though is consistent improvement. One can't expect a democracy like India to come up with immediate results...
Isn't it funny how terrorists start demanding their human rights as soon as the state gives them a taste of their own medicine?
I don't see what all the fuss is about. They should bury them alive.
I think they should focus more on delivering credible defense systems rather then churning out lofty statements. India desperately needs a reliable bullpup assault rifle, artillery and a point defense fighter. They're way behind the curve on conventional weaponry so I don't understand why...
I can see why they're concerned. Indians are at least a little bit disturbed by even relatively benign expansions in SL and BD. An extra 100,000 troops backed by a modern airforce and SRBM's is clearly going to raise some eye brows.
India is still far behind China, but it seems the GoI has...
So lets see here then...
A motive exists, there's plenty of circumstantial evidence (inaction on the ground), we have a previous record that spans decades and finally we have several eye-witness reports from the ISAF (30 nations), GoA, GoI, Russia and in one instance the PRC.
So why is that...
I see no reason why a nuclear state with the 7th largest army on the planet can't move against a bunch of a cave dwelling bigots. I mean half of the threads on here are about Pakistan taking on India!
Pakistani inaction is indicative of complicity, its as simple as that. Perhaps this will...
Let me see if I can elaborate on this a little further for you. First of all, China will stay out of any confrontation with the states. China isn't what it used to be in the 60's, we're talking about a country that's growing at 10%. It's easier for them to sit it out and watch America get tied...
Alright that's all well and good, but makes you wonder why America's steadfast ally has 'suddenly' wavered in N.Waziristan don't it?
There's a reason Pakistan isn't acting against the A.T and its precisely why JuD openly holds rallies across Pakistan...
now let me guess, JuD is a charity isn't it?
Think about why Pakistan hasn't moved against the Haqqani's in Waziristan and you'll have all the credible evidence you need.

Also someone mail RAW some bangles and panties.
If there's one thing South Asians have been doing, it's bickering. Ignore trolls dude. We've all had the same conversations a million times over there's no need to perpetuate it.
As far as the MFN status goes, it's just an eyewash. Neither side is in a position to make any sort of compromises...
It hardly has anything to do with bravery. India would've achieved little by attacking Pakistan save for perhaps a little dignity. Our politicians have squandered most of that away in any case though so it doesn't really matter. Its simply easier for India to pressure Pakistan diplomatically and...
As you said, its pretty standard trash that's churned out every month or two to remind us of how dangerous it is to attack an 'irrational' power like Pakistan. The reality is that Pakistan has no option but to keep playing up its trigger happy image to afford itself some sense of security...
