No we have mutual influence as well. We are your largest trading partner.
That doesn't translate into strategic leverage over India.

No, the Indian defeat in 1962 was rooted in a failure of political leadership. I'm not sure India has proven that it's political leadership has gotten it's act together.
Yes, 1962 was ineptitude of the government. There have been several incidents after that and the results were not the same.
That does show we are quick learners.
Fine until we have different interests. Happy?
It's as deep or as shallow as your hate for us.
See, I believe your colonel OOE on the WAB. "China will fight India to the last Pakistani".
Pakistan has made itself a willing tool and you will use the tool to the hilt. Can't really fault that logic.
But you confirmed what is well known. It is more about India than about any common interests. That can change. Quickly.
Really do you need me to correct you again on those little incidents?

I think you're missing the fact that Pakistan can act as a strategic artery, giving us access to the Persian Gulf via Gwadar Port (and the KKH), as well as oil pipelines from the Middle East. Basically, a method to bypass the Malacca straits.
Hmmm while I respect OOE and his opinions, he represents the views of a Canadian forces officer.
He is ethnic Chinese.
I know that.
Good luck with that. Tell me when it materializes.

Fair enough.
If a future war is inevitable (I hope it isn't), then we might as well have a "soft enemy". We went head-to-head against the USA in the 1951 Korean war, and the Soviet Union in the Sino-Soviet split. Fighting back these superpowers was great for morale, but tiring.
Better to have someone soft.
