I think you have too high an opinion of yourself if you think this sort of activity will go unnoticed for long.
Unfortunately, ten 'cave dwellers' did a lot of damage in Mumbai over 2-3 days. Today, Pakistan has arrested and is trying the people who are deemed responsible. In an environment where Pakistan and India are at each others throats outright, this will not happen. Then non-state actors on both sides - the Lakhvis and Purohits - are free to do as they please. And then you might have 500, 1,000 or 10,000 "cave dwellers" loose in Mumbai, Delhi and elsewhere. Will that not impact your economy?There's also always the option of outbidding Pakistan and hurting your economy even further, cave dwellers/non state actors can't really do anything about that. Pakistan can choose between a loss of a few billion dollars or put its existence at stake and bomb a dam in India. Simple.
Will you attack Pakistan then? If so, both of us will be destroyed. If not, I guarantee you India will suffer not one iota less than Pakistan. Perhaps more. It is all fine and well to make threats, but when you underestimate resources and resolve on the other side, you just come across as a self-righteous, ill-informed individual.
But let us chuck this idle talk out the window. So far the FACTS are that India has been spouting all manner of threats and has not made good on a SINGLE threat. So until we see some real action, our conclusion is that these threats are a rung lower on the ladder of importance than animal excrement.
Yes, do to them what they do to you. Because what they do to you, according to some of them (Kashmiris in particular), is payback for what you've done to them. And so it goes on.In any case, speaking of war and all that other good stuff, waging an overt war against Pakistan should be a last resort, we should exact revenge in a similar fashion. I hate how lax our defense establishment is. We need to fight terrorists, and their sponsors, like terrorists. We should do to them, what they did to us.
[/quote]I think we'll have first hand experience of India's response to a terrorist attack in October. The CWG are coming up, so its only a matter of time. Here's hoping we respond in kind.![]()
Thanks for giving us a date. I am keenly awaiting October. Let's see if this ends up being another in a long line of duds...
No, no more. Ignorance is bliss ...

This thread has turned into the usual pissing contest.
Let me ask the question again
What evidence is there for theft of water by india? By evidence I don't mean
1) low levels of water in chenab: apparently water level is low on all 6 indus rivers
2) Presense of banglihar: It is run of the river HEP inspected and approved by the WB. (the guarantor of the IWT)
3) Crap spewed by "journalists"
4) how water availability per capita has decreased 5 fold in 50 years (population in pak has probably gone up 5 fold in 50 years. DUH!
Do you have any information on how exactly the water is being diverted?
What is being done with it? No infra-structure for use and storage of massive quantities of water would go unnoticed?
Given that this so called theft has been going on for the past has been going for the past 6 months, the above information should be readily available?
You are killing our people by sending terrorists In, and we are drying your land by Not giving water.... Situation is balanced now... You stop sending terrorists then we will look into it.... Right now The situation is even.
Tejas,
They believe that the opposite is true - i.e. we are arming insurgents in Pakistan and staging attacks on our soil. And we have not violated the IWT - whatever it is that they say. Pakistan would have taken India to court if that were the case.
First, I'd like to congratulate the mods and board members for making this forum is a more sane one compared to the other pakistanifdefence forum. But, I'm still waiting for answers to my questions regarding this water matter. I figure you want to have these answers before you start a WAR, conventional or Nuclear.
Water or War?
War! Bring it on.
