I'm rooting for the Indians

No winners in this. Bad deal all around.

Well, I tend to agree there are no winners in a nuclear exchange. But if it has to be, then I have no problem picking a side.

But, it's entirely possible that Israel has supplied India with the anti-missile system which is currently fully deployed along Israel's N/NE borders. It has worked very well in tests, and it's a new version of the Arrow anti-missile system which we supplied them during the Gulf War, which worked semi-well back then. The new anti-missile system, built jointly by the USA and Israel IIRC, has passed all tests with flying colors. So it is possible for one side to win with the right defensive "shield".

However, I doubt India has it, since Israel's top priority is to fully deploy it around the country to avert missile attack from all angles.
