Growing up, one of my dad's best friends was a guy from India. He was a hardcore pacifist except he wanted to wipe Pakistan off the face of the planet.

Do you seriously think that if India and Pakistan and China and Russia all start lobbing nukes at one another that we wouldn't be affected by it
Highly doubt China and Russia deploy their nuclear arsenal in this fight
I could definitely see some clandestine fighting amongst their forces such as what is seen in Yemen between Iran-Saudi

Is this the same Pakistan that hid Bin Laden from us for years until we found out and invaded to kill his arse?
You sure about that. The burial at sea always smelled like a steaming pile of shite to me.
On another note, India is vulnerable on a few levels imho. Pakistan has allegedly been training terrorists for quite some time and sending them into India. With roughly 100 million Muslims calling India home, those terrorists can blend pretty easily I would imagine. They would just have to be "activated" in order to cause carnage. FWIW, I don't blame India. Pakistan is the armpit of the planet as far as my travels are concerned.

If US is really serious about fighting terrorism, they need to take a close look at Pakistan. That harbor most of them and is a safe haven

More so then if we get involved? Honestly, no. Who is going to invade the USA?
I don't see how us dealing with it helps or saves us any money. This is how we deal with problems, we spend money by either sending troops or paying countries off to not go to war.
What's the alternative? We have to pay more for labor or more for goods. So, we lose money either way.
So yes, obviously we would be "affected" by it. Are China or Russia going to be sooooo pissed we stayed neutral when that Nuke sent by Pakistan landed on Russia and decide to invade Alaska? Doubtful.
We are in a lose lose situation, I just say we let some other jackasses kill themselves and stay out of it for once.

China shares a disputed border with India via occupied Tibet. They could easily decide to tag team India. Then we have to decide if we're going to do something about it. If we don't, they'd consider it a green light to move on Taiwan and elsewhere. That's one way it could get out of control.

I wouldn’t mind sitting back and watching as two nations that have been scrapping for decades duke it out. No US involvement. No hawk thoughts on proxy wars. Nothing. Let it ride.

There's a HUGE difference between India/ Pakistan and Taiwan.

Exactly. Seriously, when was the last time this happened? That the US had almost 0 involvement in a halfway decently foreign war? I'm not talking about like the Faulklands.

They could glass every densely populated area in pakistan.
India is a sleeping giant as far as potential military power that i wouldn’t want to piss off

I hope Pakistan takes out India's phone scammer industry.

Exactly. We would absolutely go to war if China invaded Taiwan.
