been watching this for a few days. Pakistan rattling the nuclear sabre Pakistan claims it has ‘credible intelligence’ India will strike within 36 hours | CNN Tensions between India and Pakistan have escalated further after a top Pakistani official claimed early Wednesday it has “credible intelligence” that New Delhi will carry out a military action against Islamabad within the next two days. “Pakistan has credible intelligence that India intends carrying out military action against Pakistan in the next 24-36 hours,” Pakistan’s Information Minister Attaullah Tarar said on X. He did not elaborate on what evidence Pakistan had used to make the claim. Tarar’s comments come just one week after militants massacred 26 tourists in the mountainous town of Pahalgam in Indian-administered Kashmir, a rampage that has sparked widespread outrage. India has accused Pakistan of being involved in the attack — a claim Islamabad denies. Pakistan has offered a neutral investigation into the incident.
There is a US centric slant to this. India is likely the China trap door. If you believe India is the mysterious country that Trump, Bessent, and Lutnik are eluding to, it’s a major step toward decoupling from China. If the US can lean in on better US investment into India as a China replacement, you have an economic pressure from the US on Pakistan and India to cool tensions. This is maybe a BRICS wedge to split up the trade block and find better one-off deals. Pakistan has a vested interest in trying to destabilize a US-India deal.
Gonna side with India on this one. OT: When is Trump going to declassify what Pakistan and Musharraf knew about Osama Bin Ladin?
