You just don't nuke an entire country over some troops which were invading into the enemy's territory. Nuclear responses are not comparable to the conventional ones. This means that nuclear responses from both sides would have to follow a step-wise escalation, from counter-force to counter-value targets, during which both sides hope to prevent further escalation.
Geheh you think so! We dont agree. We CAN have a different thought process which your planners so conviniently ignore.
Comeon your calculations have gone off the mark before, no self respecting pakistani would deny that.
So what is the guarantee that it will ALL go acc to what YOU believe.
Alright some food for thouht.
It is entirely possible that we have mapped out your territory and posible locations for a nuclear strike. Which are regularly updated as per humint and sat images. Now you strike us first with nukes on paks territory and are sitting plum. A possible conversation might goes like this.
Pak General : bwahaha take that suckers we have nuked you on our soil. Now you cant nuke us.
Pak major : ummm. Why not.
General: cos thats what we think fool. How dare you question our wisdom. Dont you remember kargil? Such a comprehensive victory.
Major: umm.. ok
Meanwhile in indian camp
Indian General : buggers. Nuke their own territory, make their already truncated land some more truncated.
Indian Major: you mean our land did not suffer nuke attack
General: correct
Major: and we can now nuke them?
General: correct
Major: you mean. They nuke pak territory we nuke pak territory.
General : correct
Major: possible 10s and 20s of nukes all on pakistani land.
General: correct
Major: hehehe
General: heheh
I have an alternate line of conversation as well . Not so pretty i must confess. But entirely possible.
