    As if this doesn't have the fingerprints of the U.S. and Israel all over it...

    I don't see that at all, it's an old feud between Pakistan and India over water rights...the only thing I can see Israel or the US or Iran doing is selling them all weapons but India shut off the water to begin with and they definitely aren't guided by the West or Middle East. I'm sure we all have covert spies there but India has it's own agenda. From what I've read, India sparked this uprising over water for farmers. Doesn't help that they don't like each other much to begin with.

    no idea but they are also in skirmishes with the Chinese in the north over borders...usually water sources...India has one of the largest armies on the planet and nukes...they are also friends with Russia.

    You should look up the real leader of Pakistan that the U.S. has jailed and see their reasons for it before commenting.

    Possible but I think India is just hooked on Russian oil, they vote against sanctions and also sell stuff to Russia like textiles. Modi seems to play both sides against the middle. We don't have much military clout in that region from what I can see nor many allies. We're based mainly around Guam the Philippines and S. Korea and Japan. The British and the Dutch had the main western influence in that neck of the woods.

    Yes and you would irradiate a huge portion of China and India's fresh water. You would send 100s of millions of people fleeing in all directions. It's impossible to predict what would happen, but it would be horrific.

    possible dumb question here...... but say they do nuke each other..... is it possible it throws everyone in a tizzy once they are launched and everyone starts throwing nukes or would we just assume its just india and pakistan going off on each other..... i forget wtf movie/show i watched but it made me think of it since it was kinda a plot line of it.

    I'm just a nobody. But I don't think anybody else would launch.
