Begs the question, what exactly are nuclear weapons defending? These comments apply to both India and Pakistan and can be extrapolated to China and the US.
Are these weapons defending a nation where people have equal rights and are free to express themselves? Free to follow their dreams, free from hate brought on by inherited ideology. Are these weapons defending Utopia – “Garden of Eden”?
Hardly!
Are these weapons defending a cherished “way of life”? Where power is not abused, where justice is swift and fair; where people have enough to eat - a place where people do not seek the sweet release of death because they can’t afford medical treatment.
Nyet!
So what exactly are these weapons defending - an imaginary line on earth drawn by past conquests?
“The young students in this video are ignorant”. True A1Kaid, these young students have not been fully programmed – give society some time. These kids will soon become stokers of flames that have been passed to us by our forefathers. Who knows they may one day make you proud by setting the world on fire

That is nonsense, with all respect to you.
These weapons have defended the nation from foreign invasions, from foreign armies, foreign occupiers, and more.
They have contributed highly to Pakistan's national security. The Army sees it as a requirement and even the overwhelming of the Pakistani youth and majority.
You think you know better?
What these weapons defend is the life of Pakistani people to live without foreign armies controlling them, abusing them, detaining them, and more.
Yes we have issues at home, but Nuclear weapons are not designed to protect us from everything, a Nation must use a multilateral approach to diverse problems. Though on the Nuclear front, it is especially important to deter war with regional nations that threaten Pakistan's sovereignty and nationhood.

Seriously how old are you and how real is your assessment of the reality in this World...."Imaginary line" that's a new one...
This imaginary line is called "home" by 176 million people and many people living abroad. This imaginary line is a place they love and many would sacrifice their live for in order to protect it, our families are they, our childhoods are there, are homes and property, our ancestral homeland even. Call me crazy, but I think Nukes help us to protect these special things from other nuclear threats.

I repeat, "Yes we have issues at home, but Nuclear weapons are not designed to protect us from everything, a Nation must use a multilateral approach to diverse problems.

Afford medical treatment, okay your really a wild pacifist who is against realistic weapons that actually deter further warfare.
Why do you blame Pakistan? Don't you understand we have been forced to go Nuclear? I guess not.
I rest my case, If I wish to respond to your next post I may or may not.
The students in the video are ignorant and thank God they are not serving in the Elite Offices of the Army.
