#1 Last year when elections were held in Indian Kashmir, between the time that the elections were announced and held, almost a thousand people were killed by Pakistani, ISI, Jihadi Terrorist. I'd just like to ask where the hell was the US-UK when Pakland was busy killing Indians. I getting really pissed off when people on Rantburg keep going on about how India is not supporting US. The US frankly hasn't given a damn when it comes to Pak terrorism in India. It just a bunch of dark skinned savages killing each other to them.

#2 I have a better question. Where was the US when American citizens were being killed?

Beirut Marine Barracks - Response: a few bombing raids. Declare victory, go home.

Berlin Disco Bombing - Response: a few bombing raids. Declare victory, go home.

Khobar Towers - Response: a few Tomahawks. Declare victory, go home.

American Embassies, Kenya/Tanzania - Response: a few Tomahawks. Declare victory, go home.

USS Cole, Aden - Response: a few Tomahawks. Declare victory, go home.

You get the picture, so don't give us this Americans are racist because they didn't involve themselves in the bloodletting of Kashmir. We did a piss-poor job of defending our own, so how could we be expected to unilaterally involve ourselves in a conflict that even the locals probably couldn't even explain. India has a big army. Use it.

#3 Good points both.

Biggest problem: Pakistan is nuclear, which complicates matters tremendously...
