Like I said, we will be fighting defensively, just like before.
We can hit New Delhi with conventional weapons while sitting on the high ground of the Tibetan plateau. India has no counter for this, none of our major cities are within range of India's conventional weapons.
And both sides have "No first use" nuclear policies, so it will be a conventional fight. Which is just as well since India does not possess thermonuclear weapons, and the total power of India's nuclear arsenal is estimated at around 1 megaton total, which is less than even ONE single Chinese thermonuclear warhead, which are around 4 megatons each.
Well then, you see the problem. Nehru was setting up military outposts (like Dhola) that were far beyond the McMahon line, even according to their own maps.
If that happens again, we reserve the right to use overwhelming force to defend ourselves.
Or if they open fire on us first, which seems very possible, considering that Indian soldiers are used to opening fire on their borders with Pakistan or Bangladesh.
Please feel free to attack us with your super duper weapons at your convenience, just spare us the silly chest thumping on internet forums.
Btw, try to quote the full text in future.
