Ya sure... the article is funny enough..... But less then the idea of attacking(cold start) a nuclear armed nation... did the military strategist ever realized the fact... that such a misadventure... could turn into a full scale nuclear war... and the limited advantage that your country believes to enjoy... might not be actually there...
So stop this nonsense right now... wake up...smell some coffee...... you guys are grossly mistaken.... attacking Pakistan... and expecting it to play by your rules.....purely a sign of delusion......
And as far the dis-proportionate use of nuclear arsenal.... time will tell ... who holds the horses....and for how long..... My take... dust to dust...ashes to ashes.
You guys playing with far and expecting not get burnt....
Moral of the story..... gone are the days ..... when India thought it can attack Pakistan.... at its will...... in fact there wasn't any such times in our brief history..... we never provided you this luxury.... specially post 1998.... it has been proved several times.... and i need not to re-open this debate.... You guys are well aware of it...... So stop justifying your dreams to attack and paralyze us...... without getting a noticeable response..... we are very clear about over sovereignty visa-vis India...... You need to get clear as well.
Adios!
Suffice to say, no Army (including Pakistan) will press the red button until and unless its very survival (read disintegration), the very base is threatened and the Cold Start for all the hype it receives is designed to do neither of that
and the Pak Army knows that.
If the nukes are the ultimate deterrent and will be dropped at the drop of a hat as some people claim why does the Pak Army even care for artillery, tanks,Fighters etc ? Will they not invest the entire money in nukes. ?. The idea is that conventional weapons are still not out of vogue.
And my post was specifically aimed at the article which claims that Nasr is a Battlefield Nuke and even after firing some how Pak will get away with it. While in reality any nuke attack - even sub-kiloton battle field nukes - will ultimately be treated ONLY as nukes and the response will be as per our stated NFU Doctrine - Massive and Disproportionate.
So actually it is not me who needs to wake up and smell coffee, but its the other way around where people who think that nukes will be used immediately at the drop of a bomb.
And how you managed to insert Cold Start into what I have written is still beyond me,
Thats the imbalance in your mind which is giving India a "kick to do something". Until there is a feeling on Indian side that India would come out victorious out of a Nuclear War.. the wishes like "Surgical Strike" and "Cold Start" will keep appearing and this is where such tactile armaments come handy.
I am happy that after the development of Nasr, war with India is less of a possibility than it was the day before it got tested. So I would congratulate Pakistanis as well as Indians that they are at more distance from a Nuclear War than you were before.
If Pakistan decides to use the nukes I suggest better use Shaheens and their big payloads rather than using a sub-kiloton Nasr as the response will be the same.
There is nothing called a Tactical nuke. Nuke is a Nuke, Or atleast the official Indian NFU Doctrine says so.
p.s.: What is the fixation with Cold Start for you people. There is NO such thing like that.
