India, Pakistan threatened to unleash missiles at each other: Sources

[Comfortably Numb]

This is the important point to ponder.
India has already established the new set of rules regarding Kashmir and Pakistan.
The new rule is that a price has to be paid for mischief in Kashmir.
It is India that has crossed the border after 40 years to carry out the attack. But India’s over confidence cost a Mig 21, which is unfortunate but beneficial in the long run.
The important point to be noted is that India has not targeted any Pakistani military installations or personal, so the chance of leading to war is negligible.
Pakistan has downed the Indian Mig 21 after it had crossed over to Pakistan and not in Indian territory, it has right of defending its air space. Also Pakistan has not targeted/ destroyed any Indian military installations thereby not requiring a response from the Indian side.

lol. You hurt bro?
What India has established with their misadventure on 26th is that

1-It is in no position militarily to carry out any kind of aggression against its neighbor without having its a** kicked in return
2-All that talk of being ready for a two front war is just that ; talk
3-It doesn't love crows as much as it does cows

What Pakistan has established with their targeting of Indian military installations on 27th is that

1-Its capabilities in conventional warfare are grossly underestimated by its adversary.
2-It is ready to escalate in reaction to any violation of its sovereignty
3-Keyboard warriors of India are as dimwitted as their media

It's not our fault if following unrest (which despite you blame us for), you rile up your own people and media, and then defy sane calls from PM of Pakistan to allow for an investigation and open peace overtures. Subsequently launching a politically motivated airspace violation, at our expense.

This was done in 2016 and India got away with the drama. What's changed isn't your idea of the price of unrest in kashmir, which you say is a strike inside Pakistan. What has changed is that the price of a strike in Pakistan, is the price of an equal if not greater strike in India, and possibly a Mig-21 for interest.

Senior people in your millitary did not like the idea of using the Indian army for bollywood-esque drama back in 2016. And now no serious person in your ranks will want a superficial drama to be created in future by your politicians, there is a larger threat you pose to us and the immediate threat is payback for the unequal way this conflict ended. But even that doesn't fit with your analysis of the initial Indian provocation.

It seems you have not understood the meaning of the term ‘Price’ in my post. It has always been the economic aspect of this conflict. The economic weakness is the point which is leveraged by India.
The thing is that the burden of maintaining a heightened state of readiness is tiring on the economically weaker party.
India will be the one escalating and Pakistan will be the one de-escalating the matter.
The time of dossier diplomacy is over. The price of militancy in Kashmir will not be solely paid by India like before, now the burden will be shared by Pakistan also.

If and when push comes to shove, money and economy is the least of concerns in a war.

Indians are fools if they think Pakistan will not go for India's jugular vein when the first bullet is fired.

The whole of subcontinent will be turned into a heap of ashes and nothing more within a few minutes.

As PM Imran Khan said, "Don't miscalculate".

So be very careful when you wish for war. The next war if and when it happens, will certainly be the last war in this region for next few millenia.

India and Pak at it

See, this nuclear bluff of Pakistan has been called by India and it’s been proved that it’s just a bluff.
You must know that Pakistan was very quick to de-escalate the entire episode. Our W/C was handed over within 48 hours even after severe opposition from within Pakistan against his release. Many members of JEM ware arrested ( although it’s just a farce) to quickly de-escalate the matter.
Now you must realise that such small skirmishes will never lead to even a small war let alone a nuclear one.
Kargil war was the best opportunity for Pakistan to use nukes, did it use it..? No!
Similarly did Pakistan wage war after the atlantique incident..? No!

So your nuclear rant is just that ... a rant...!

I agree with that, any actual harm to Pakistan has been economic. But all else you're implying and Indians believe are bs. And your own government won't consider this embarassment as a victory citing elusive relative economic loss for Pakistan. You're right technically on this final point, but it really is clutching at the straws.

Lol.............forget about our nuclear bluff. That had at NO POINT come into the equation during the recent skirmish. The ONLY bluff that was called was that india DOES NOT have conventional military superiority over Pakistan. That is a myth and a lie, as is everything that is indian . On February the 27th 2019, Pakistan shot down fighter jets of an enemy that is MORE THAN 7× bigger than Pakistan and has unlimited support from the West and Russia. NO Nation in the ENTIRE history of mankind has achieved such military success against such odds . This was so shocking to indian kind, that their dreams of attacking Pakistan were forever dashed and india was seen as a weak and powerless nation on the world stage .

Having been saying this for years, and I have been proven correct by recent events: india is FAR TOO weak, powerless and incapable of fighting the Pakistan military.


Looks like you are getting your info. and logic from the same indian source that claims indians invented UFOs 7,000 years ago and were using the internet 5,000 to 10,000 years ago :

If Modi had the cajones to fire missiles, invite an even bigger Pakistani retaliation and trigger all out war he would have just done so instead of threatening.

Threats are issued (instead of actual action) because the side making the threats doesn’t actually want to escalate or doesn’t have the will or capability to escalate.

True. But consider the situation at the time, 1-3 aircrafts down, pilot in custody of the enemy, air force with a bloody nose, would not have been exactly an election winning campaign poster.

Yes, you can term the downing of the Mig a victory for Pakistan.
But what is the magnitude of this victory..?
Now imagine the same situation but with a Pakistani fighter jet down instead of Indian...!
Will it change the grand scheme of things..? Will it reduce the already heightened atmosphere between India and Pakistan...?
Will it reduce the posturing..?
And answer is No!
The real damage done is not the downing of an aircraft but the change in the grand scheme of things.
I hope you understand what I mean to say.

 

[Safriz]

If India fired 6 missiles and Pakistan fired 18 in return, then India would have fired back 54 missiles and at that rate Pakistan would have run out of missiles far before India as number of missiles in Indian inventory is far higher.

Phai jii
There are 220 cruise missiles with Indian army and another 100 with navy and that's all. I do not know from where you are pulling off those numbers

If Pakistani jets goes down, Your prime mister will be stupid enough to send your hungry and naked army over the border. Then we will have to cut you guys down like the vegetables you are.

indians are all talk. That is the reality. They will NOT dare attack Pakistan becuasue they are FAR TOO weak, powerless and incapable of doing so. The way we shot down their fighter jets whilst they watched helplessly on and were not able to fightback is clear evidence of this. indian kind was clearly shaken and humbled by this. Even here on PDF, a lot indian hot air blowers have not been back since the 27th Feb. 2019.........

WTH!! Is this a number game to you???

 

[Surya 1]

India will face international sanctions if they fire Missiles. Remember 1998 sanctions?
New sanction will hurt india badly.
We have nothing to lose if Pak get sanctions as we already close to bankrupt, but India has everything to lose , it's economy , it's progress , and & to face isolation .

Pakistan has missiles too in arsenal, I don't think we will sit quite and wait our missiles & weapons to retire if war is imposed on us.

But the point to be noted here is that those sanctions couuldnot harm India. US lifted the sanctions by giving best ever deal of nuclear technology. However, I fully agree that missiles or any other weapons which escaletes the situation should not be used.
