It sounds like it shouldn't matter, but no-experience jitters would explain why those pilots just dumped their payloads and ran back to Indian airspace.

Pakistan has had dozens of low-intensity brush wars with anti-government militias and Islamist radicals. There's an active insurgency going on in Balochistan right now.

Twitter has taught me Brazilians and Indians are the absolute worst.

I lived in India for nearly three months and honestly the stuff you read on twitter isn't too far from discourse you'd encounter quite regularly.

Modi presumably want a nice, quick, gulf-war style conflict that makes India looks strong, doesn't add any more difficult territory, and doesn't lead to thermonuclear annihilation.

He could probably achieve 1 and 2 with a swift invasion and defeat of Pakistan's conventional forces.

3 is kind of a toss-up.

Pakistan has tons of experience fighting on the side of the Taliban, as well as counter intel expertise from their experience with sheltering and supporting Osama Bin Laden

sometimes i wonder how much india downplays jainism because of the Real Rough Look of 'em. just a whole lot of optics with a 100% rational and reasonable and innocent explanation you'd rather not bother with.

Depends how much of that money is getting to Kashmiri Muslims, I'd imagine. In forms other than better-equipped rape squads, anyway.

Would it be better if India genocided them, like what happened to Kashmiri pundits in the 80s?
