Re: # 81

jayp,

there are three viable options or replies to your line of argument:

(1) Not even in yaa dreams. No brainer
(2) If it can happen to Pakistan then why not to India? After all it too comprises of different ethnic, religious demographics. Maybe, but recent track record and International support can postpone that event for the next ten to twenty years. Having said that, one global economic recession and the differences will re-emerge.
(3) Your dream comes true and Pakistan is split on ethnic lines, quite possible and the worst nightmare for those worried about the Islamo fascist nuclear weapons. Iam sure those nuclear weapons or capabilities will be the first to be taken care of by international community, what happens after that? Ethnic cleansing, genocide, sectarian murders, millions of refugees with nowhere to run will land up in India and Iran. Armed militias will rule their small enclaves and will resort to smuggling and extortion. In short, the entire region will be destabilized leading to increased defence and police expenditures by the Indian Govt that is counterproductive to a growing region faced with uncontrollable terrorist networks.

Take your pick, Iam not betting on any of the above.

Dear NFP

would you call BB's "grand" reception as one off reaction also!!!
I hope that u see this post!!!
