Does India Harbour Territorial Ambitions Towards Pakistan or Not?

[Red Spinifex]

Pakistanis claim India is an external threat to Pakistan. But why? Do Pakistanis feel that India has never been reconciled to Partition and the creation of Pakistan and seeks to reunify Pakistan with India by force? Not so! says Air Vice-Marshal (Ret'd) Abid Rao of the Pakistan Air Force. He maintains that even if Pakistan were to ask India to reincorporate Pakistan into India, the Indians would refuse. If this is true, why is India used as a bogeyman in Pakistan? For what purpose is this done?

Common Pakistanis didnt think daily about it.But their elites especially in intel agencies and Army .need such a propoganda for their lucrative business.

Many reasons but two standout. Pakistan almost at all levels use islam and kashmir as theirs. They cannot agree that so many muslims can live peacefully in India - because if they admit that it would mean admitting the fallacy of the reason used by its founder jinnah. So they continue to need India thought of as enemy in their minds. but since they cannot openly say islam should be their exclsuive, they pick on things like kashmir as an issue.

they believe that pakistan can only survive as long as its people hate India

Only in the minds of those Pakistanis who have to demonize India to keep their businesses rolling.

Is demonising India as the perennial enemy only a ploy to justify military spending in Pakistan? With so much of the Pakistani budget allocated to military expenditure, it must be wide open to corruption. Is the Pakistani military elite creaming off money from the Pakistani military budget and using the Indian bogeyman to justify that budget, thereby allowing the Pakistani military elite to enrich themselves at the country's expense? Is the militarisation of Pakistan a diversion or a distraction from the pressing economic and social needs of the great bulk of the Pakistani populace?

You decide!

For those who are not au fait with the "two-nation theory" in the context of the Indian subcontinent, here is the Wiki article on it:

Two-nation theory - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Bone up!

LoL troll thread, Pakistan maintains it's military to defend against a regional adversary - which is a large country that we have disputes with, why do countries like Russia have a strong military, are the Germans going to invade.

India has long played its proxy wars to take Pakistan areas but sadly for them every time they suffer humaliating defeat.

You are reading the words that were never written. He never took India off the hook for terrorist activities but what he mentioned is that India would "Dare not attack Pakistan because we are strong". It is true that India would dare not initiate a full-scale war and thus this gives them more reasons to engage Pakistan in using sub-war strategies and that includes terrorism.
