I think we can have discussion like gentlemen instead of calling names and stuff.....
Let agree to disagree , that you have your idea and I have my idea and we both enjoy the freedom of expressing those ideas .
They have a population of 1200 million people which is 6 times larger than Pakistan's 200 million so that logic does not make much sense.
By that logic , why is companies like Tata , Mital Steel are expanding their global reach to Europe , America e.t.c
They already have market of 1200 Million no ?
They are the one who have given us the status of "
Most Favourable Nation " if you can recall that, beacuse they want to have trade with Pakistan. Plus a war with Pakistan threatens their billions and billions Dollar investment in India as simple as that.
hey have fought wars in the past (48, 65, 71)
Those were different times for both the nations, they were no nuclear capable back then and their corporates were not involved in politics to the level they are today.
they have occupied and invaded into Siachin
Again a small conflict , not a full fledge war . There is always a chance of limited conflict but no chance what so ever for full scale war.
they are still occupying Jammu & Kashmir so the core issues not only exist rather getting severe (water and Kashmir issues) and additional issues (CPEC, Gwader port, Afghanistan etc)
IOK will remain under their occupation, they will never let go of it because of its strategic values e.t.c , and neither will Pakistan will let go of its part of Kashmir.
As far as Gwader and CPEC are concern , they will fund proxy war to their fullest . That is what they can do the best . That is why they have created 500 Million USD fund for its disruption.
We can return them the favour by funding and training the people from the separatist movement within india.
But we are ready for all eventualities and we won't sit idle
No where I said that we should not prepare , we should always be prepared. I have my full trust in Armed forces who are keeping this country safe from scums like TTP and Alqaeda .
The most recent example of not going to full scale war , after being nuclear power, was the full military stand off on borders by both forces in 2002 (If i can recall it correctly).
That standoff ended with India withdrawing its forces from border without a fight .
So yes India and Pakistan will not have full scale war. Period
