My Pakistani friend believes Modi bombed his own troops a couple weeks ago to ensure his reelection and this bombing run was an attempt to hit Islamabad since Balakot is like 50 miles from it, so it's basically entirely a bid to get reelected by the Indian PM to her. But she also believes Pakistan will win if it comes down to conventional war since she went through some kind of military training during her time in school there, apparently what they do instead of ROTC is attach you to a military unit and give you real training for a year, but that may just be her being very Pakistani.

For those of you who don't know, the Indian army conventional forces completely outclass the Pakistani one qualitatively and quantitatively

if there's a tank battle or w/e the pakistanis are gonna get trashed but they'll portray it as a huge victory kinda like Egypt in 1967

also there won't be an actual war, this is one of those "leader A and leader B both need to look tough" so some dudes on the front line are gonna die to satisfy public blood-lust situations

That can be pretty difficult to back down from, though. Especially if whoever above is correct and the Indian forces are sufficiently superior that Pakistan is humiliated. An engagement that bloodies both sides can probably be walked back but a rout of the Pakistani forces could lead to Problems.

any small scale engagement can be casted as a victory regardless of actual outcome

have a hard time seeing how this deescalates anytime soon

both sides just needs to blow up enough poo poo on the other side to call it a "win"

I don't think we are that far from the threshold, especially if India already shot down a pakistani plane

ofc i could be wrong and by tmr morning new delhi and karachi could both be radioactive sinkholes :shrug:

hey now the avg pakistani/indian can fight alongside their brave warriors on twitter

it's gonna be awesome once ww3 starts and diff country's citizens can shitpost at each other during the war

once upon a time we thought more communication between citizens of different countries would prevent conflict but I think it just makes shitposting another theater of the war

Isn't the whole problem that there's a positive political incentive to escalate right up to the point of nuclear annihilation, and exactly what escalation might set off a runaway reaction to that is unclear?

There's inherently like 1% or something that this goes nuclear but at some point there's some face saving agreement in which both sides declares victory

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

it doesn't matter, the truth w/e it is won't be established for months at least and by that point the narrative is that India won in India and Pakistan won in Pakistan. And the nationalists on both sides will just call w/e source that says their side didn't win fake news puppets of USA/Pakistan/India/Mossad/Zionists/China

the only way Modi loses is if there's a horribly embarrassing defeat and given how small/low-scale the fighting it is it's basically impossible
