Didn’t seem to deter the Taliban? Or, are they not considered foreign? It didn’t protect your national sovereignty from drone strikes. While Pakistan continues to spend more on enhancing its “nuclear deterrence” it diverts precious resources away from nation building. The things that were needed yesterday the things that make the lives of your people better.
Buddha smiled in 1974 and yet Pakistan is intact – how did Pakistan survive without nuclear weapons before 1998? I’d argue that Pakistan was doing far better than India in the 80’s and early 90’s.
I don’t blame Pakistan – whatever gave you that idea? And I’m certainly not a “wild pacifist”. I just dread waking up one morning and reading that several million people have been wiped off the face of the earth - including some people on this forum that I have become quite fond of. Let’s be honest, in the Pakistan - India context a nuclear war is not that farfetched.

First of all prior to 1998 India was not recognized as a nuclear armed nation, but had primitive nuclear devices that's all. When India decided to go Nuclear it presented Pakistan a grave national security danger, one that conventional armed forces could not deal with alone. So this means Pakistan had to by Geo-Political and military factors GO Nuclear.
About the "Smiling Buddha" nuclear DEVICE test, that was the forerunner of the nuclear race. Of course Pakistan remained intact, because India's nuclear weapons program was in early stages and primitive stages, they were not necessarily a Nuclear Armed weapons state, but a country experimenting with Nuclear devices. Nuclear devices are not necessarily weapons of mass destruction but well developed/enriched Nuclear bombs and warheads are.
So at the time of the Smiling Buddha the risk was only beginning.
So, it took India 24 years to make a bomb AFTER we conducted a test
OK

Yes of course, and the bomb that brought Japan to its knees was very sophisticated

Animals.
Go find your war and quit hiding behind words. Both of you. May you drown in that much-desired blood.
How little you actually know.
I'm young and I desire war. I want to smell and taste blood. I want to bathe in the blood of my enemy. I want to hold Indian heads as trophies in my hand. What does that tell you about me?
Don't you worry my sworn enemy. I'll meet you one day on the battlefield and your head will be mine. I'll quench my thirst. Mark my words.
Hey, on a different note, I'm young and I desire war. I want to smell and taste blood. I want to bathe in the blood of my enemy. I want to hold Indian heads as trophies in my hand. What does that tell you about me?
