    Zardari calls for unconditional talks with India

    Zardari calls for unconditional talks with India

    Future prediction about Pakistan and the rest of the world

    Zardari calls for unconditional talks with India

    Have a look! World most powerful Militaries.

    Why the heck would anybody want to fight US? Both India and China need a strong US for trade. India further needs US, if for nothing, as an example of the "free world". If you take out US, what ideals of freedom do we aspire to ? Half the Scandinavians are ruled by kings/queens and so is Canada...

    India can launch a short war in case of a Pak misadventure

    Or something like Israel does (and Pakistan sometimes tries). Strike, gain objectives and withdraw quickly. If objectives are not met, still withdraw. As long as the enemy cannot retaliate with a similar quick strike, no worry of a longer term war.

    China requires censoring all computers

    No. It is just an attempt to divert the thread. More inflammatory the post is, less people notice that it is off topic :-) The thread is about Censorship in China and Censorship in general. Not an India-Pak-China comparison.
