All fundamental koranic rights maybe.

#3 Underestimate Trump at your own peril. He is dealing with mental children. All they offer are the wailing tantrums of children.

#5 The Pakistanis are about to discover that nukes, while useful for deterring another power from nuking them, doesn't confer any offensive advantage against a nuclear-armed power. A nuclear exchange means millions dead. No Pakistani leader is going start a nuclear war *and* end up losing anyway, in the conventional war to follow, which may even see Pakistan broken up - again, into even smaller components.

#6 Besides, even if Allah intervened directly and Pakistan won Kashmir, it's not clear that the electorate would be in a mood to celebrate a victory that left their cities irradiated and millions rotting in the streets.

#9 This reminds me of the scene in "Blazing Saddles" where the sheriff takes himself hostage by holding a gun to his head.

#10 The military has found greater acceptance for its 'cold start' doctrine of gradated assault and expansion with the current political leadership. The problem with Indian leadership was that their ambitions were just too self-obsessed and limited. There also hasn't been any suggestion by economist eggheads or party strategists for expansion-related positives yet. So the military keeps proposing options to the successive PMs every few years, and getting non-committal replies like 'Let the time come' and 'Yes, we'll take that under advisement'.

Suffice to say that so far India has only played defence with them. The day we undertake an offensive, it'll be because we have planned it to the end.

#11 Why should we be worried about it? I for one would not give two shits if India nuked Pakistain.

#12 I have more faith in the Indians rockets taking their payloads to target and their nukes actually working. I hope it doesn't happen, just saying.

Also it's not really the US's business.

#15 If the Jihadi's in Pakistan get a hold of nuclear bombs or even materials they won't hesitate to take it to the Great Satan, that is the US. If it looks like the Pak's are going to lose security on their nuke set up perhaps we she drop nukes/FAOAB's then blame India.
