Lots of rumors floating around out there, I heard Pakistan had crossed the border .

What a hot mess. Pakistan supports Ukraine, Turkey Supports Pakistan, China Supports pakistan, Russia supports India

Got my head spinning, what could go wrong?

Plus, India was supposed to replace China as our supplier of cheap junk.

We might have to go cold turkey

I guess so but it’s been escalating. Both crappy countries and I had not heard about it until this.

There are volumes “WE” don’t hear about. What is retold (I avoid reported at this point. It is all interns using google so the actors speak about the directed topics of the day/ week) is so isolated. Very little about PA losing power last week, Germanys current strifes, Europe in General….OH AND THE WHOLE CORRECTIONAL OFFICER DEBACLE IN NYS that NOONE else in the nation has heard of.

These two have been hammaring at each other for decades. I flew with a guy from that region. Every flight he had was at the service ceiling of the AH-1. During his engagements with his counter parts, the engine would quit. He had done over 30 engine restarts in flight. In a helo that is no joke especially in mountains.

Totally agree. I want no part of it.

However,

They are 2 nuclear powers that have a history of conflict. It's not a stretch to say that there are very plausible scenarios of escalation that can lead to a nuclear exchange.

And I can't help but try to connect the dots that this is another front in WW3 that is starting to go hot. I don't think it's a coincidence that all these conflicts are seemingly starting. Wait for Taiwan and the western Pacific to go hot, wait for Iran, etc.

Nothing happens in a vacuum anymore. When there is an imbalance somewhere on the globe it's felt elsewhere. Other nations are now seeking to exploit a vulnerability or opportunity.

I view it from the lens of history, what would people have said in 1935, 1937, 1939, 1941. All those random independent events (Spanish civil war, Japan invading Manchuria, Germany taking the sudatenland, Denmark, Poland ) etc... you get the idea. All those events increased in velocity and severity and became increasingly connected. I think it's entirely plausible and perhaps even likely to make an argument that we're seeing the battle lines of a multi polar ww3 forming. Very interesting times indeed.

Good, let them use all of the power that they hold. I am fine with the powers and the might they wield.
