I think someone needs a wake up call. Sorry to burst your bubble buddy.
Bangladesh doesn't have any kind of defensive pact with either Pakistan or China. Neither country has any reason to intervene militarily on BD's behalf.
India can count on the US, Russia, France, UK and Israel for assistance, both material and diplomatic. The US alone has enough leverage with the Chinese and the Pakistanis to ensure that they exercise restraint.
India probably will face some terrorism, the Nazis bombed the bejesus out of London, they terrorized and killed thousands with their V2's, they had the strongest military in Europe. Yet the English prevailed. My point is that a few bombs and random shootings will not bring a nation of 1.2 billion to its knees.
Lastly, this is a very small piece of land we're talking about, not even a full square kilometer, yet people on here are flipping out like its the beginning of a world war or something.
Its a very small dispute, this is a small insignificant bump in our relationship, at the end of the day we have to live right next to each other, so we should focus on finding ways to work with each other.
Full scale war with BD is a remote possibility which will put India in odd with other players in the international arena also India will loose its credibility of being a regional super dog.
My question is why India lost 18 of its soldiers for this small piece of land in 1998? Its not only this small piece of land, India did sent its frigates to occopy our Talpotti which is also a very very small piece of land. Will India ever be able to act rationally? I guess not, that is why PK and China taken away half of its Kashmir, China is claiming huge amount of land in NE and India is still claiming China yet to return its territory.
