The US cannot afford an open conflict with Pakistan

[53fd]

Afghanistan, with almost 1/5th the population of Pakistan, is causing huge problems for the US & NATO Forces. Let us go over the events that took place in Afghanistan over the last 6 days:

May 23: 4 Nato soldiers killed, 14 injured in Afghanistan blast (Laghman)

May 23: Uniform-Wearing Militants Kill 6 at Afghan Police Station (Khost)

May 23: 3 cops dead, 4 injured in Herat blast (Herat)

May 23: Jordanian peacekeeper killed, 4 injured in bomb blast (Logar)

May 22: Suicide bombers invade government building, kill 6 (Khost)

May 22: Blast Rocks Afghan Kandahar City (Kandahar)

May 22: 7 killed, wounded in Zabul roadside mine blast (Zabul)

May 21: 6 killed in Afghan hospital blast (Kabul)

May 21: German forces kill 4 Afghan protestors (Kunduz)

May 20: 4 Iowa Guard soldiers hurt in bombing in Afghanistan (Nuristan)

May 19: Taliban Kill 35 Road Workers In Ambush (Paktia)

May 19: Blast Rocks Afghan Kandahar City (Kandahar)

May 19: Explosion kills French soldier (Kapisa)

May 19: Roadside bomb kills 3 Afghan officers (Nimruz)

May 19: 5 killed, wounded in Badghis (Badhgis)

May 19: 14 dead in Jalalabad suicide bombing (Nangarhar)

May 18: Binghamton native killed in Afghanistan (Kunar)

May 18: 12 demonstrators killed in Afghan anti-NATO protest (Takhar)

May 17: 8 ISAF troops killed, wounded in northern Afghanistan (Balkh)

May 17: 2 civilians killed in Kandahar mine blast (Kandahar)

May 17: Coalition supply convoy strikes roadside mine in Ghazni (Ghazni)

May 17: Afghan governor says NATO troops kill a child, wound 4 (Kunar)

There are many more attacks that are either unreported, or I couldn't mention because I couldn't find them. The provinces where terrorist attacks have took place in only the past 6 days is shown on this map (with a red cross):

The fact of the matter is that Pakistan also has 620,000 active troops, 1000,000 reserve troops, 100,000 paramilitary, Militia (combined lashkars/volunteers expected to fight alongside Pakistan Army) over 2 million, over 18 million privately owned arms; among many other things. So it would be foolhardy for the US to be in an open conflict with Pakistan.

every lock has a key...and they are masters in this...so m doubtful abt ur logic
also ussr was very strong had nukes,army etc but still got broken...

China has also said that a open war against Pakistan will be one against China. China has many nuclear warheads that can strike any part of the US. Pakistan also has nuclear warheads that can strike Tel Aviv, such as the Shaheen 3 & others. There would be no feasible routes for supplying an open war against Pakistan, Pakistan is the best route the US has of supplying for the War in Afghanistan in the first place. So I think it would be foolhardy for the US to be embroiled in an open war with Pakistan.

There are many more attacks that are either unreported, or I couldn't mention because I couldn't find them. Either ways, the WOT & the US/NATO forces have only made Afghanistan less safer.

The provinces where terrorist attacks have took place in only the past 6 days is shown on this map (with a red cross):

The fact of the matter is that Pakistan also has 620,000 active troops, 1000,000 reserve troops, 100,000 paramilitary, Militia (combined lashkars/volunteers expected to fight alongside Pakistan Army) over 2 million, over 18 million privately owned arms; among many other things. So it would be foolhardy for the US to be in an open conflict with Pakistan.

It's an unthinkable scenario. One is their economy cannot handle it especially with the risk of China and Russia participating. Two Afghan isn't safe for them, they would be cut in two if they wish to use Afghanistan as a springboard for its operations.

Could not understand the context of mentioning the Pakistani troop strength...

Why dont you test India for that?

Loss of customers is not a big deal against US presence in Pakistan especially in Balochistan. so take a chill pill.

Means if US has any intentions in Pakistan like afghanistan....I am loving it.

Are you for real? Why would China risk getting involved in a conflict conventional or nuclear for Pakistan? What will China gain out of it? You brandish nukes as if any launch on US will not ensure the total decimation of whichever country uses it on US. Abbotabad happended in this month, then Mehran happened two days back and still you dare say that US does not have you by left and right. And then the same old thread of the supply line. You really think that US needs a supply line to ensure that Pakistan fighting capabilities are decimated? Your army has by itself showed US around all the relevant installations. Do you really think that the hostilities will last for more than a day? And then with a weak government, do you think that Punjab will be able to control the other states and things will not take a logical course from there?

My suggestion please, leave these jingoistic dreams. You have had 2 recent examples. Change the thinking and see how can Pakistan be useful to the world so that it can make genuine friends and not those with the idea of "enemy of my enemy is my friend". When that happens, forget US but infact no country will be able to afford to wage a war on you.

USA attacking Pakistan can only help benefit China and India economy.

 

[praveen]

what about warfare which is under the guise of feigned friendship

You think the US will let any of Pakistan's nukes fly ? Dude your talking about the United States, they have already shown how much they care and what they can do. Their military budget is 10 times the size of the whole Pakistani economy, you really think they will think twice about Pakistani nukes if they really want a war.
