#1 This won't stop til the dysfunctional Paks quit exporting their terror. A nuke exchange might be a clarifying event

#3 A nuke exchange might be a clarifying event.

I'm sure the people like myself that have family in New Delhi and other parts of India would object. You know, it would have been helpful if the US hadn't cozied up to the Paki's all these decades.

#4 re: #3,

I agree that a nuclear exchange would not be good in anyway. But re the US cozieing up to the Paks can we please not lose the history of the era, and the USSR cozying up to India and everyone else?

All to often things that the US did historically are not put in the context of the Cold War. That was a very screwed up time all the way around.

#6 If the Paks are saying better sense should prevail I take that as meaning that, despite the captured Indian pilot, Paks got their butts kicked by the Indian air strikes. It doesn't mean they'll stop sending terrorist across the LoC and won't need any future butt kicking.

#7 And in spite of all the cozying our government may have done with the Paks, we were not the ones who armed them with nukes. You can thank the Chinese for that.

#8 Rumor is that the Pakistan plane shot down was an F-16 (A or B). Pakistan acquired a number of these in the 90s.
