There will be no negotiations. There will be no one in Pakistan left to negotiate with. Forget this Babur, its bull-shit. They hope to survive in a submarine if they are still floating. Acharya, once the nuclear threshold is crossed, its crossed. Pak knows what crossing it entails i.e. total self d...

India has NFU policy. So, India won't retaliate till a nuke lands on Indian soil. But after that, TSP's total annihilation is definitely assured. So, are they going to use the SLCM for a 2nd strike on India? . They hope to negotiate themselves out of total annihilation using this weapon system. Fun...

This is about cruise missiles in the strategy forum context. Its critical to understand whether the fellow dangling his cruise missile likes his virgins on earth or the ones promised in heaven.

Syed, can you name a nuke capable country that does not have the will to use their nukes? The only danger Pakistan poses is to itself. i do agree with you that among all the nuke capable countries pakistan is the most unstable country. but believe it is more stable now than it was in 1998. pakistan...

cruise missile can be detected but the detection/ reaction time is too small. it is our irony to live in a neighbour hood where three counries posses nuclear weapon and share borders. all of these countries have the will to use them. now that is more dangerious than any thing else. Syed, can you na...

Nawaz Sharif went to DC in July 1999 because the Pak Army was suffering unacceptably heavy losses at Kargil. Pakistan wanted to put a diplomatic facade on what was essentially a military defeat, Musharraf's military defeat. All this nuclear hooey is so many wasted taps on the keyboard.

There is a problem with capturing 4x territory across the Intl border without vacating the enemy occupation. This is because after ceasefire the territory across the IB is returned due to various intl agreements but that across the LOC will be retained by the enemy. What is returned, when it is ret...

When Indian territory had been occupied, one really wonders on what basis the Indian armed forces were required to operate within the limits of our territory. The correct response to Kargil would have been to capture 4x the area in Pakistani Punjab. PM Shastri had already established the principle i...
