I assume India and Pakistan are now both on full alert.

[Swede]

This could be very bad.

1. i hope they launch nukes at each other

just for the halibut...:hi:

[Swede]

4. edit

paranoia strikes deep

[Qibing Zero]

No less funny than 8000 of any other nationality.

That is to say, not funny in the fucking least.

[Swede]

8. Please don't tell me I needed the sarcasm smilie.

I was replying to the glib poster with the idiotic joke.

[Qibing Zero]

14. No, no, I knew it was sarcasm - I was furthering the point.

It's sad that a good percentage of Americans wouldn't give a damn unless other Americans were killed (more of a slight against rabid patriotism than America).

[Parche]

11. it was sarcasm

:sarcasm: :sarcasm: :sarcasm:

:hi:

[Swede]

13. Sorry Pache.

This has got me rattled.

[Parche]

15. i feel your pain

i was just thinking they do have nukes, and one thing, and they might launch them

:hi:

[lxlxlxl]

10. Huh?

xx.x.x.

[burythehatchet]

2. the attacks are continuing

[Nikki Stone1]

3. I'll be Obama is on full alert too

This India/Pakistan situation is only going to get worse.

[mvd]

5. Yep

I know Bush would screw it up. Let's hope he defers to Obama.

[Nikki Stone1]

6. Or at least lets Obama be in on the process

This is one benefit of having a person of color with an Arabic name as President. He's not your average white guy and maybe can break the ice a little better.

[mvd]

7. Yes, that might help

It's no trivial matter here: India and Pakistan have nukes.

[Nikki Stone1]

9. Well, here's hoping.

I knew someone in the foreign service who was stationed in India. Apparently the situation has been teetering so badly for so many years. OF course, we don't hear about that in the US: we're too busy getting "news" on the stars' latest escapades.

12. Don't get paranoid. These aren't dirty savages itching for war.

American's really have no business worrying about crisis anywhere else in the world. It's not because your opinion is irrelevant, but the hysteria tends to fuel an unnecessary posturing, paranoia, and response.
