Its all been kicking off since a terrorist attack killed a load of indian soldiers and india have decided they're sick of the pakistani government supposedly providing support for/not cracking down on the terrorists. Its probably all about water though

here is the suicide bomber

quote:

With tensions rising between India and Pakistan in the wake of a deadly terrorist attack earlier this month that killed more than 40 Indian police officers in Kashmir, New Delhi has decided to retaliate in part by cutting off some river water that flows downstream to Pakistan. The decision to build a dam on the Ravi River, whose waters are allocated to India by treaty but a portion of which had been allowed to flow through to Pakistan, adds an extra source of conflict between two nuclear-armed neighbors that have repeatedly clashed over the disputed Kashmir territory.

I said it in the main D&D thread but Pakistan has a first strike policy and India does not, so that limits what India would be willing to do

I'm sure if India got within Islamabad airspace though they'd be nuked immediately.
