I didn’t have an India/Pakistan war on my bingo ca…oh, wait, yeah, it’s always been there in that corner. Great.
Missing Taiwan for bingo, no?
Is the simulation collapsing?
- Russia/Ukraine ✅️
- Israel/Palestine ✅️
- US/Canada,Greenland (threats) ✅️
- India/Pakistan ✅️
Congratulations, diagnostics complete.
Results: CRITICAL ERROR, SYSTEM FAILURE, SHUTTING DOWN SIMULATION.EXE
Rwanda conducting border incursion and I am pretty sure occupying a major city in DRC
Hold on, Morocco and Algeria isn’t happening yet, same with Turkey and Syria or China and Taiwan.
give it a minute
Judging from history, this is probably what the simulation is for. There hasn’t been a single day in many thousands of years of recorded history without overlapping armed conflicts. You’d probably have to read cuneiform or so to find one.
Well if you were on the fence about this Trump’s dog in the race is Pakistan.
India supplies weapons to Russia. Both are Putin’s bitches.
I mean it supplies weapons to the Philippines as well, it’s getting hard to track the bitchenomics at this rate.
Russia sends weapons to India, not the other way around. India is not a major weapons exporter.
By this standard the US would be the biggest ‘bitch’ as it is the world’s largest weapon supplier (followed by Russia and China).
Isn’t India withholding water from Pakistan? This might be a broken clock situation
No, there’s nothing in place to actually do that at the moment. They’ve said they would, to which Pakistan offered nuclear fallout.
Of course beyond that it’s a question of why they’ve finally decided to withhold water, at which point no, it’s not a broken clock situation. The country that harbored bin Laden turns out to have an Islamist terrorist group funding habit.
they’re both asshole countries what of it
India is increasingly nationalist but does not house terrorists (Osama Bin Laden being the most notable) and militant / terrorist groups are not given access to its intelligence network to destabilize regional geopolitics.
Pakistan had the West’s and especially US goodwill until it became known that the government there was too closely tied to terrorist / militant groups.
Oh yeah the “war on terror”
you mean the one Americans self inflicted? The people we trained? Probably friends with Pakistan in the first place because we were training people to overthrow Afghanistan or Iraq from there or something.
There was a definite sloppiness with proxy wars fought in cold war era. Between the USSR and the US there seems to have been a persistent fear that the other would gain power and influence if a key region failed to self govern.
If there’s one thing that will always be true about America it’s that it will never give up an opportunity to sell or supply weapons.
If that’s your takeaway of the relationship between the two countries and their well over a billion people, it’s hardly like you’d be expected to care at all- so to you, nothing.
Maybe take Rwanda and the DRC- I’m sure you don’t really care about the conflict between those countries either, but the millions of people who live there matter to themselves, as does the actual truth about the conflict and what drives it. It’s so reductive and frankly vapid to just think, “oh asshole bad countries”, as though that couldn’t apply anywhere else, in any other conflict.
Where does it say I have to be humane and empathetic about every conflict?
I have very little power here and the motivation behind these countries beefing (religion) is silly to me. I don’t care of 60 trillion people died over religion it’s still fucking stupid and fuck em.
And I expect the same thrown my own way. When America is nuked and I die, you best damn well say “sucks to fuckin suck”
I didn’t request that you be humane or empathetic, and stated as much. What of it? To someone that is content with not actually looking into things, and just making snap assumptions about how the world around them works, nothing.
You’ve done it again in assuming that religion is the motivation behind the conflict. If you’re going to engage with other people about topics, the bare minimum of thinking about the topic you’ve chosen to discuss seems like a fair ask.
What are you talking about snap judgements you dolt.
You think Pakistan and India’s relationship has nothing to do with religion? Do you know why Pakistan literally exists? Do you know why the relationship between the two are bad? Cultural, mainly religious, differences egged on by imperial powers for well over a century.
Now to modern day. Two heavily corrupt governments who are known for harboring immensely exploited workforces and adhere to, what I see as, insane cultural standards especially in regards to the poor/women.
Fuck em, the resource wars will continue until all humanity has learned a lesson or died. Snap judgements my fuckin ass.
Seems the little guy has grown up real fast
both countries are run by religious nuts. It’s going to be extremely hard believing any of their claims.
