The only similarity is that we are both third world countries. The similarity stops there. Socially pakistan compares only to afghanistans taliban, and economically, pakistan is close to defaulting. [Stats] No exalted stats will take away the fact that pakistan is close to defaulting whereas india with all it's problems is in much better shape economically. As we have said before, there are a lot of problems with india, but the fact is, we have done well since becoming independent 52 years ago. Given the logistics we inherited we have done immensely well. [Indo-Pak and the paki insanity] > Let's take them one by one. There has been a Kargil > and there will be more down the road.

There will only be state sponsored terrorism. And that's nothing new. In fact the khalistan movement is dead, and kashmir movement has ebbed, with the militants losing more and more support everday. > Which leads us to the second point -- nuclear > capability. Both countries are nuclear-capable now. And > the first > and fundamental rule of the nuclear revolution is > that nuclear superiority does not matter. Nuclear superiority does matter. It determines the fine line between existence and non existence (that's not hindu philosophy but rather it's teh ground reality). If what yu say is the case then kargil should have escalated. Teh fact is, pakis turned tail and ran, because the world community blamed pakis for the fiasco (1.when yu're holding a begging bowl there aint too many things you can do 2. note that the Press core walked out of a tarig altaf briefing) and, india was at a stage of widening the conflict. Pakis chose to exist today to fight tomorrow (suddenly they were enlightened). But tomorrow will never come for pakistan. > Even if Pakistan has a > few crude nuclear weapons, it can stave off India, > no matter how sophisticated a nuclear arsenal India > builds. If that was the case they would have widened the conflict. But see where they stand now. Di'india is made up of 600 kingdoms'py keep dreaming of india disintegrating. In fact you have been saying wait and see .... well, pakis have been waiting and waiting, but they find themselves holding the begging bowl. Note. I'm not calling you a paki, if I did then I would be calling yu names.. and insulting you. That's something I don't want to do on this forum. Well, anyway, I gotta stop before this becomes soc.cult.paki (that's an oxymoron ... never mind ... you wouldn't inderstand)
