Re: Can Pak ever catch up to India Militarily?
No is the answer. 9 times less population, 9 times less economy. Its a middle weight v heavyweight situation. I have always advocated a peace settlement on Kashmir, which in reality will be in India's favour.
Pakistan can ill afford such a conflict, mostly as it fans the flames of Islamist within the nation and sidelines moderates with an echo of war cries.
Peace, prosperity and realization is what's needed. A secular, Muslim majority state focused on human development.
