Man..you're really hot to trot on global thermonuclear war...


Not at all. I'm being realistic. If the same radical Islamic
fundamentalists who were stirring up clashes in Kashmir are successful in
an
assassination attempt on Musharraf, you'd better believe that the
government
of India will seriously consider a preemptive strike on Pakistan.

India and Pakistan have been at each other's throats since India
achieved independence in 1947 from the Brits and Pakistan "split off" to
provide a homeland for most of India's Muslim population. They already
had a substantial war. India is not run my lunatics. Pakistan is a bit
less insane than it was...but you never know. The assassination of
Pakistan's current leader would not precipitate nuclear war between the
parties.


I didn't make myself clear enough. The assassination itself wouldn't
precipitate
nuclear war between India and Pakistan. The assassination of Musharraf
during a coup
d'etat, where the most radicial Islamic fundamentalists in Pakistani
intelligence seize control
of the country and its nukes, would likely lead to a preemptive strike by
India.



Do you really think that if it starts, your little town won't end up
with a nuke up its butt?


nope.



The US and/or Israel will not let Iran acquire nukes. Mark my words.


Iran has nuclear weapons. Iran is playing its cards close to the table.

Iran doesn't have nukes. If they had 'em, they'd have already passed 'em
along to
Hezbollah and Islamic Jihad, and we'd see the proof in the form of a
mushroom
cloud over Tel Aviv.
