| #1 With some lag, India has started to realize that, with China's massive arms build-up, they *must* build-up their armed forces or inadvertently create a power vacuum. And though China has recently made soothing overtures, the Indians are well aware that the last time they fought China, they lost. And oddly enough, one factor pushing both sides into conflict is demographics: between the two, they may have between 30-40 million excess males, with no chance for employment or marriage--an extraordinarily dangerous situation. |
