Why will the world feel more threatened by North Korean or Iranian missiles and less threatened by Indian long range nuclear missiles?
The reason they dont is testament to India's reputation!
the rationale for making such a weapon - is it a status symbol?
The reason why the SLV has been decommissioned and hasn't been converted into an ICBM as of yet. Not that they cant!
I see my comment on parity with Pakistan offended you. that was not my intention, but isn't that the reality? Today Pakistan have nuclear deterrence and in effect have neutralized your conventional / numerical superiority.
Not at all. On the contrary, India understands the consequences of using nuclear weapons on the regions' well being. That being said, it wouldn't be in the best interests of everyone concerned - including China- to provoke any trigger happy deranged rouge in charge of nukes, which according to Pakistani govt's first use doctrine says a lot! None of the south Asian countries want radioactive clouds blowing over their territory and neither does China, for that matter the whole world. Can you imagine how the world - including your BFF China - would react if Pakistan decided on lobbying a couple of nukes into India? Any guesses as to why China didnt support Pakistan during the Kargil war?
Are you calling me a whiner?
Take a guess on who I call whiners!
BTW reading from your other posts arent you an ABCD albeit of Pakistani origin? No offense meant, but AFAIK and have seen, ABCDs dont 'get' the intricacies of subcontinental politics, and neither do they understand the US's views in such matters!
