I can understand why this subject is so funny. Think about it, only 12 million people will die in the first instance. And it's not as if they are our people, they are only Paki's and Indians. The fallout would probably travel to the Middle East, China and other parts of South East Asia. But that's okay, all of these countries need some population control. Only about 7 million people would be injured. Of course the American, BriTish and other coalition forces in Afghanistan, Pakistan and Central Asia would have to be moved pretty sharply.
Agriculture in the region will be ruined for many years causing millions more to die of starvation.
American intelligence reports that a limited nuclear war would have cataclysmic effects overwhelming hospitals throughout Asia and the Middle East requiring vast amounts of aid.
Of course there is nothing we can possibly do militarily, no-one has suggested that. It's also very difficult to do anything politically. India regards the Kashmir problem to be an internal one (and they heve an excellent point).
But don't make the mistake of thinking that this doesn't concern us. It concerns us economically, it concerns us politically and it concerns me because of the large Asian communities in Britain. They will be at each other's throats if war breaks out.
Please don't trivialise nuclear war - it's not funny and it's not Christian.
