Jesus Christ- just wow.
PAF response could be bombing one of the dams India has constructed to block the flow of Chenab and Jhelum rivers, which I term as Water-terrorism. Think out of the box.

The Fifth column speaks:
Totally numb after watching the video of Wing Commander Abhinandan Varthaman.
I don’t care how unpopular it may be to say that he is paying the price for sickening war mongering in TV studios & d ruling party wanting to win an election.

The only winner in all of this is of course China. Finally a sensible commentator on Twitter:
Absolutely. War with Pakistan is open and one can even realize the clandestine part of it. The civilizational war on the other hand is so deadly but subtle, people even when maimed, don't appear to realize it. https://t.co/XLhPKOFuC1

India should cede the Muslim part of Kashmir but then accept that TNT is the “correct ideology” for South Asia.
Whereupon it should administer loyalty oaths to its entire Muslim population (the oath should be in such a manner than no practising Muslim can actually accept so should include some Hindu deities). 100million Muslims cross the border to Pakistan & Bangladesh; India will be left with the Khans the glamorous types of Muslims.
India can then look forward to beating China becoming a first world country. Indians must accept that they have lost the wings of India permanently (thankfully the South was saved by the Vijaynagar dynasty) but instead embrace it’s Hindu Civilisational identity.
Modi has unfortunately lost the election with this humiliation; India will enter a period of darkness with Congress and the Italians. Hopefully the Hindu Right will evolve a new leader that can understand how the Nehruvian settlement is India’s true enemy.
Without Nehru; India would have been at 12,000 per capita, 95% Hindu and a prosperous autocracy.

“India should cede the Muslim part of Kashmir”
To who Pakistan or the Kashmiri Muslims?
“Whereupon it should administer loyalty oaths to its entire Muslim population (the oath should be in such a manner than no practising Muslim can actually accept so should include some Hindu deities). 100million Muslims cross the border to Pakistan & Bangladesh.”
That would require another partition type bloodbath and ethnic cleansing. Indian Muslims are too important a vote bank to completely ignore or side line. Their settlements are also scattered throughout India. Are you being serious or joking?
The loss of Kashmir means that 1947 is up for renegotiation.
India cannot just “give up” Kashmir without also demanding something back.
Look at Greece and every other country that effected complete partitions (imagine if Israel was 80% Arab), the stability is a different order of magnitude.
Ok I see your point. Generally Muslims will always be a fifth column in kuffar countries, with their loyalty to the ummah not the state (UK is suffering with that problem right now). Especially now with the global awakening of Islamic fundamentalism post 9/11. Still I find your suggestion impractical.
Karan, muslims are often fiercely patriotic to their non muslim majority countries.
LOL. You are getting a tad too worried about India. As i have said earlier, nationalism/war is not a major factor in Indian elections. You might win a war (Kargil 99) and still lose votes and you can do zilch (Mumbai 2008 attacks) and still go on and win a election.
The stakes are getting higher by the hour. Seems like the most current and relevant thread to post this from the Bulletin of Atomic Scientists: nuclear war in South Asia could still end up causing enough of a mini nuclear winter to wipe out a billion.

longer article here:

I’d stress that the article is estimating what happens if ~ 100 warheads of 15 kiltoton yield (Hiroshima sized) are used. Pakistan’s Uranium bomb based arsenal and could have up to 140 operational warheads of approximately 10-50 kt yield. India have about 130-140 warheads, but but these are plutonium based and are much more powerful. Bombs will have yields approaching megatons for the larger variants.

https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/00963402.2018.1533162
To put some of these numbers into perspective, one would need to drop about a dozen 20kt bombs to wipe out a city the size of Mumbai. If you have access to megaton yields, then only one or two bombs would effect the same damage. You can morbidly play around for yourself here:

Ma Kasam, Direct Nuclear?
…and wait there is even a nuke map to play around as well! BRB dropping one on WOKE-land. Cant suffer them anymore.
Well TBH “100million Muslims cross the border to Pakistan & Bangladesh; ” would hardly be the “win” Pakistan is looking for here.
In Zack’s hypothetical scenario, how many Indian Muslims will migrate to Pakistan and Bangladesh? Yep, that loyalty oath with Hindu deities will surely get them : )
Reminds me of a trip to Calcutta airport many years ago. Our cab driver gave his name as Subroto and talked about the recently concluded pujo. My friend picked on his accent (?Sylhelti) and on some gentle prodding, he was soon smiling and admitted his real (B’deshi Muslim) name.
Will such a loyalty oath now send back several hundred thousand Bangladeshi migrants – many with Hindu names- back? Yep..even less so the Muslims of UP and Bihar, Kerala and Karnataka settled here for generations.
Must be the cuteness factor of a Pak-origin author suggesting fantastical scenarios that we are discussing this seriously ? which I doubt even outer fringes of Hindutva would suggest in India.
LOL, no one is sending anyone anywhere. But i think we surely are moving closer to the whole “accept that TNT is the “correct ideology” for South Asia.” any way, so i guess it wont even matter who ends up where.
It will almost certainly “get” the Urdu speaking contingent.
The taxi driver with the Hindu driver and puja enthusiast seems like the type who should stay.
Fantastical scenarios all. Administering oath to Muslims on Hindu deities. Hundreds of millions crossing borders…
Somebody is obviously smoking cheap, and possibly banned substances 🙂
