India's government is
no blessing to its population. The importance of Cashmere is not worth
the millions of Indian lives at stake if a conflict with Pakistan indeed
turns to nuclear blows. As I wrote some months ago: India's government
has no clue! It is not considering the importance of the internal changes
president Musharraf tries to make, changes which would make Pakistan a
better neighbor to India. To the World the negative effect through the
fallout washed into the ocean would have incalculable effect on the sea
live and not just local. Attacking Pakistan ineffable would lead to a despaired
Pakistan having to resort to nuclear countering the overwhelming conventional
forces of India. The large cities of India and of Pakistan would become
killing field dwarfing the Nagasaki and Hiroshima devastation's. That India
is a democracy does not exclude that its government can make stupid decisions
or have less than moral leaders. This is obvious just comparing to politics
in the USA and not just of the moment. |
