India-Pakistan war thread

[Alexander the Straight]

The terrorists used AK47s & American M4 rifles to kill these tourists, probably from the huge stash of weapons the US left in Afghanistan before they fled . Afghan Taliban is selling those weapons to anyone prepared to pay

India is getting some Western backing. Though Pakistan being directly involved in the attack is an allegation. This is a building block on an old dispute. India is going with Pakistan being indirectly involved...

Pakistan is just a proxy of the US regime, just like Egypt

both had democracies which the US regime interfered with

I won't go down that rabbit hole with this terror attack. India, though, is certainly placing the onus on Pakistan.

The Great War started due to similar circumstances. Not the same, but it has triggers in common.

However, it would be in Pakistan's best interest to deliver the terrorists to India. It is complicated. Lashkar-e-Taiba have a long-rooted history.

The terrorist group themselves were involved in that region.

2022, A somewhat simpler time.

I never thought I'd ever agree with this. It feels like yesterday.

That's exactly my thoughts, if they're genuinely not involved then the logical path to follow would be to condemn the act and to help capture the culprits. Yet they're doing neither and have assumed a highly defensive and inflammatory position instead.

the US proxy has no interest in co-operating with anyone in BRICS, infact they wish to undermine BRICS

They can't simply squash Lashkar-e-Taiba. I don't know to which depth the group is involved in all things Pakistan, but attempting to drive them out, or hanging their ideas and ideals, could and probably will cause them great instability.

Neither are they contained to Pakistan, they are operational in India, Bagladesh and Nepal, and well, a country the US couldn't subdue. It is known that they have sects that are active in the US, and likely in other nations too.

The USA have switched sides now if what you say is even true. I don't know, but it was likely.

BRICS is not really a concern.

Protests between Indians and Paks in London, understandably drawing the ire of locals. Reading the comments gave me a good chuckle , I wonder how many of them realise the irony of all this. I doubt they've even heard of a certain Lord Mountbatten

Not to be outdone, Trump tells the world this is a terrible situation that's been going on for over a 1000 years. Pity nobody told him that Pakistan only came into existence in 1947.

Interesting to note that both China and Turkey have sent planes, weapons and missiles etc to Pakistan in anticipation of conflict.

The US stance is a bit on the fence, they have supplied Pakistan with F 16s and a sizeable recent loan or grant for them to maintain the fleet.

Interestingly, Pakistan has just moved all their F16s to the east coast, away from the Indian border.

India is apparently unhappy with the UNSC report into the incident and has asked all UN officials to leave the country.

Seems like only Israel and Russia have been consistently "friendly" to India.

Still not much indication what direction this is heading in.
