If one takes Pakistan to task for bluster, then they should also take India to task for bluster. Heck, I’m taking Putin to task for it right now.
I did mention that India is in a situation where it has to bluster if Pakistan is going to, so I do realize there’s a reason for the bluster.
IMO, Pakistan has been the aggressor with India, so I understand your objection, and wouldn’t disagree with it’s merits.
It’s my thought that you don’t bluster when it comes to the use of nukes. You use back channels to let your opposition know exactly what will happen if they should be so stupid, but it isn’t a matter for public discourse.
India hasn't used its nukes for bluster. It doesn't need to.
That cover was used by the Pakistanis when they initiated the Kargil war in 1999. But India called the bluff.
