Will this influence OE's pursuit of suppliers to this market?
There's no doubt in my mind that sooner or later, some third world hellhole will initiate nuclear war. The really ridiculous fact is that all these nations (Pakistan, India, Iran, Iraq, Libya, etc) hate each other because of differing religions - how they can distort worship to somehow justify war is bizarre. Unfortunately, that conflict NEVER changes, keeping the factions at each others throats forever. The West always fights over land, but the land in third world hellholes is worthless, so it's not the dominant issue. As are the lives of the citizens. These people may not remember 1945, but they ought to remember Chernobyl. The key player is China, an ally of Pakistan. If a nuclear heavy hitter gets involved, the West could be drawn in, and you'll wish you'd spent all that money you put in 401k's and IRA's.
Despite the title in the article below, India and Pakistan are not nuclear equals, which is revealed in the body of the story. And an imbalance is MORE likely to trigger war.
