Good info, but out of their own inferiority complex and tribal issues, here is a highly unstable nuclear nation...while India may not feel threatened by Pakistani incursion into their territory of any significant scale, we all should be worried about what happens to Pakistan's nuclear materials should something break out!

Things in Pak military starting to unravel?  Could be the trigger for a civil war, in a nuclear nation already not known to be the most stable of regions.

Hopefully India can stay out of this, or else things could get fugly quick.

And as is always the case, Stymie is either too busy golfing, watching Michelle's butt grow or sticking both thumbs up his arse to know or care what is happening here, so what happens is anyones guess.  If the Persians go nuts or Israel spanks them, I could see Pak hardliners in the military attempt to crush their opposition.
