Nuclear Deterrence
[quote name='ramana' date='29 May 2011 - 10:40 AM' timestamp='1306645348' post='111726']

[url="http://www.deccanchronicle.com/editorial/op-ed/bomb-pak-we-will-hit-back-961"]We will hit back[/url]



Quote:Q. Last Sunday, terrorists in Pakistan attacked the Mehran naval base near Karachi and destroyed two sophisticated maritime surveillance and attack aircraft. This has led to fears that Pakistan’s nuclear stockpile and fissile material are no longer safe from theft by militants. [color="#0000FF"]Is India at particular risk of a possible terror strike using nuclear materials? What is our response mechanism like in such a scenario?[/color]



A. [color="#0000FF"]The retaliation against terrorist organisations can be nuclear or with conventional weapons. If we have ascertained that a nuclear strike from the Pakistan side is by a terrorist outfit, and we want to hit back using nuclear weapons, then we should inform Pakistan that we are not striking at the country but only to destroy a particular group.[/color] We know the sites of the terrorist outfits. We only need to decide the strength of the nuclear weapon to be used. It will obviously be tactical, of a particular yield that does not cause damage beyond, say, a brigade strength.[color="#0000FF"] But my preference would be to use conventional force in retaliation.[/color] I think in nine out of ten cases, this should suffice. We should continue hitting them till they raise the white flag.

I find the above highlighted portion very disturbing.



It shows that Indian policy is INVITING nuclear strike from terrorists AND Indian nuclear force will bend down and surrender without firing a nuclear shot much less a massive retaliatory nuclear strike.



One has to be blind and an idiot to believe the oxymoron assertion that:

  1. Pakistan is independent and will launch nuclear attack against India without Chinese instruction/command
  2. Pakistani terrorists are independent (thus Pakistani state shall not carry sin of Paki terrorist burden) can steal nukes, capable of arming the nuclear trigger AND will nuke India without Pakistani Army/Government AND Chinese command/instructions.
