The latter I think. My knowledge of Indian politics is fuzzy at best but the current right wing party is getting butchered in elections so this might be an attempt at getting some sympathy for The Troops.

That said I'm pretty sure this is just some dudes on the border shooting at each other, I doubt it'll turn onto anything more than a minor border skirmish and it'll die down by the start of next week

I wonder what would cause the wholesale collapse of China first, the unparalleled refugee crisis, the global crop failures or the collapse of global trade as any support services/factories are vaporized

I think they're implying china's economy is dependant on factories in pakistan/india which I don't think is true.

Nope, the supply chain for everything in this globalized economy more complicated for a TV dinner is broad enough that the massive involuntary deindustrialization of a country as large as India and the subsequent flood of refugees through out the rest of se Asia will gently caress up manufacturing in every country on the planet op.

It's not like refugees will be fleeing to china unless they want to cross the Himalayas

Look at a map and count how many countries border China. It will not be difficult for people to just hop across a country into China from another country, especially if the country they're going through decides it's for the best if they don't settle down there and give them a boost to keep them moving

People have been fleeing across the Mediterranean in boats made from scrapwood for the better part of decade, terrain means nothing. Every single country in the region is gonna get people entering it.

fun fact: this presumption--and how it's never truly the case--underpinned a lot of the stupid bullshit that led to both world wars. ha ha ha.

It's not that it's inaccurate, manufacturing shortfalls had a big impact on on people's day to day lives and how countries fought each other during those wars, it's just that when it comes to fighting a war the elites don't really care how much suckier life becomes for the proles

its not a net gain if the pakistanis shoot down indian jets and the supposed multiple hundred figure kill count turns out to be total bullshit

So long as modis base is pumped up its a win and the only way they won't get pumped up is if they're bathed in atomic fire.
