Pakistan troops move to Indian borders
2008-12-26
Pakistan troops were deployed on Thursday to protect vital points along the Line of Control in Kashmir and the international border with India, defence sources told Daily Times. Reports in Indian media said Pakistan moved its 10th Brigade to Lahore and ordered the 3rd Armoured Brigade to march towards Jhelum, following a heavy concentration of Indian troops on the borders. Pakistan's 10th and 11th divisions have been put on high alert, Indian media said, and troops had been stationed in Rajouri and Poonch sectors of Kashmir. Sources in the Defence Department declined to give details of any fresh movement but did not deny reports that Pakistan was moving certain brigades towards Lahore. Indian TV channels also reported that Pakistan Air Force continued its state of high alert and started aerial surveillance of the Chashma power plant and other sensitive sites on Thursday amid fears of a 'surgical strike' by India.

#2  Yeah... now's not a great time to be poking the fear-crazed armed lunatic with a sharp stick, even if he *is* concentrating on the neighbor holding a shotgun on him. Once the nukes start flying, there's no way of telling where they'll land. Unless somebody's smuggled advanced ABM tech into Kabul when I wasn't watching...
