A nuclear exchange would result in the death of millions. Still there will be many millions more left. And the fallout?
“Dot-heads and rag-heads with war-heads”
What could go wrong?
They don’t call nuclear weapons the “peacemaker” for nothing. If India were to invade and take Kashmir, they could never be sure that a defeated, desperate Pakistan won’t retaliate with nuclear weapons against their population and political centers. The carnage would be immense, political disorder and famine would ensue. It could be the end of Indian Hindu culture as it is now known and the nation itself. China would take what it wants. Pakistan would become a barbaric wasteland. The Indians won’t risk it. The skirmishing will continue but there will be no big conventional war
