This is fine.
K get it over with then
Silver lining: maybe outsourcing call centers will stop being in vogue?
And they both have nukes so this ought to be interesting. And I don’t mean the fun kind of interesting.
Nukes, alliances with superpowers, incredibly defensible border terrain, and dense population bases. What could go wrong?
I doubt any of the allies are joining this one...
That's what they said about the Crimean War
And that was a severe miscalculation by the Russian Tsar, since the UK and France had a vested interest in preventing Russian expansion.
If we look at India v Pakistan, which powers actually care? Neither group is expansionist, and each side's allies are strained at best. Pakistan is kind of allied to the US, but they pretty much pissed off the US w/ the whole Osama bin Laden thing. India has purchased equipment from Russia, but there's no way Russia is getting involved in another conflict right now. I don't know who would actually help either side. If anything, this could end the US/Pakistan alliance, or whatever we're calling it these days, since the US really doesn't want to get involved in wars at the moment.
I feel the US would want to sit this one out or even take the side of India. We do so much business in India, particularly in tech.
Not to mention our current regime seems to favor Russia so if Russia likes India....
Maybe. But we also like Pakistan because they hate Iran.
Well it's a good thing the current US President is so level headed and history literate.
You don't need to be level headed or particularly well informed to decide getting involved in a war on the other side of the world isn't really something you want to do.
The tiny thumbnail looks like Bob Barker.
