Don't know how else I could put it if you thought the way I put it is confusing......(This is not a diss, I genuinely don't know)
Think of it like a game "Who blink first", if India is willing to do this without you hurting them in the heartland or somewhere actually inside of India. Now, put into the fact that THEY KNOW you have nuclear weapons, yet they were given your response this way. How or what you think you can do to stop the next attack, provocation or attempt? Knowing that if India don't think or don't care about deterrence anymore, each subsequent strike is going to get bigger and bigger, and eventually it may lead to an all out war.
Also put this in your mind, you ALREADY had nuclear weapon, you ALREADY had the plan/framework/what have you to use it, so by that definition, this strike, should not had happened at all, if that deterrence worked, again, you weren't hitting India in its own soil with a direct strike.
Now, does that make sense to you?
I understood you the first time, but I thought you were confused. Hence the request for clarity rather then jump right in to answer an assumption. It happens a lot here and I find it extremely annoying, I try not to repeat such habits.
Now, I'm certain you're confused. I'm sorry to say but you don't have a clue.
Do you know Pakistan's nuclear threshold? I don't think you do. It has one.
You've created an assumption that nuclear weapons are toys to be lobbed at every opportunity. Nuclear weapons are an insurance policy. Nuclear weapons exist within a formal framework. I strongly recommend you do a quick search on what Pakistan's nuclear threshold are. I'm not a good enough teacher so you will have to do that yourself, it won't take long.
But I'll provide an example.
you're holding a gun, you declare that you will use that gun only if anyone stabs me, you create clear guidelines.
Now I start to slap you, then punch you, then kick you. Then I start jumping up and down like a monkey telling you ha ha you can't do jack shyt, ignoring the fact that you have already declared your red lines.
You've declared your red lines because you are certain that if I slap, punch or kick you, you're fully capable of taking care of me. That in effect is the reality.
People are ignoring the reality, creating fantasies in their heads, and blowing hot air, it makes zero sense. In fact, it's idiotic.
Pakistan and India have been acting against each other for decades, neither has an upper hand.
Pakistan has given India a bloody nose last time and this time around.
In the previous 2019 episode. India came from Indian occupied Kashmir and went back to the same location.
Pakistan attacked following the same pattern, from whence it came. Pakistan attacked India from where India came.
In this episode, India attacked Pakistan across the country, crossing the international border.
Pakistan also attacked India across the country, crossing the international border.
It limited it's response up to and including Delhi in the north and Gujarat in the south.
Where is the shortcoming?
Where is the confusion?
Now you are saying next time India will go harder.
Next time Pakistan will also go harder.
You are saying it will lead to a full scale war.
I am telling you the Pakistani public wants a full scale war. The state has already declared if you want it, come and get it.
Which part of that do you not understand?
How is it that people such as yourself can hear India and create wild fantasies, and not listen to what Pakistan is saying or has done.
War is not a game, it is played within strategic realities and advantages, both parties operate under different circumstances, that's the only difference.
Pakistan did not have nuclear weapons, before the 1990s, it has fought each and every war with India under heavy sanctions. It took care of India, but I don't suppose you would know that.
This is the first time in the history of Pakistan, where Pakistan will not face restrictions with regards to supply of weapons.
So I say again, you're sorely confused. If you want to keep one ear and one eye open and completely ignore the other side, that's your choice. But that means your conclusions don't align with reality.
Now, does that make sense to you?
