re: #46 Sharmuta

The people who should be the most concerned about this are the Indians. It wasn’t Afghanistan where radical islamists went on a rampage, but rather in Mumbai. India likewise has nukes, but like Iran, I don’t think mutual assured destruction is going to stop the Pakistani islamists.

True but if your average Islamofascist had a choice between nuking NYC or New Delhi, I’m not sure he wouldn’t pick NYC?

To your point, I wonder what India would do if Pakistan fell. They probably wouldn’t stand idly by whatever they do but might wait for the Taliban to focus on some sort of internal cleansing or purge before making a strike.
