To Answer Farukh...\nIndia NEVER started war with Pakistan, Pakistan attacked India\n1948 Occupied Kashmir.\n1970s Pissed off that India helped Bangladesh attain independence.\n1990s Occupied Kargil.\nWe also have\na. Democratically elected government since independence and are the only former British colony never to have Military Rule since independence.\nb. Most stable government.\nc. World's 4th biggest economy after the US, Japan and China.\nd. Secular.\nWhile Pakistan has\na. No democratically elected government.\nb. Had so many coups that its diffcult to count. Always been ruled by Military Dictatorship.\nc. Economically not that great, since it diverts 80% of its GDP towards arms and ammunications.\nd. Highly intolerent nation. For EG: Yousuf Youhanna, a good cricketer was stripped of his Vice Captainacy and was forced to convert to Islam.\nPakistani leaders are well known though.\nJinnah was responsible for thousands of deaths pre-independence because of "Direct Action"\nThe Bhutto Family is so corrupt... and so was Nawaz Sharif.\nAnd what can I say about Pervez bhai...\n\nAs for expanding territory, in the 1973 war, Indian Army had advanced upto Lahore, and if they wanted, they could have occupied it.\n\nI agree, India is not a perfect nation but it is still way better than Pakistan, and yeah... check your history first.\n\nAnd as for accepting, India was the First Country to recognize Pakistan, gave Rs. 980 million (1948 value) loan to get it started (Not repaid till date), and co-operated during the intense partition negotiation.

Im writing this more as a response to nawab's answere because its pretty clear that paksitan's being spared because of strategic reasons in the subcontinent region. as far nawb's answere is concerned and his reference to pakistan having a "big" stake in the fight against terrorism and that pakis dying and the casualty number being more than 9/11 victims and also the highlight being and which forced me to post this answere that pakistan's "strategy" winning the war agaist U.S.S.R. Im glad that he pointed out the fact that the US supplied money and weapons for the war against soviet union, however american military and the american intelligence is n was not stupid enough to tell pakistan that "ok guys here's the dow n here's the hardware, go and kick ass we know u can do it on ur own while we sit at pentagon n watch the video game". cmon give urself a break and come back to reality for gawd's sake dude, pakistan couldn't even win a war against india and paki military was not even half of what its right now then (not that its any better now) and you think the US IS GONNA THROW ALL THAT MONEY AND military resources on a country like that and depend on its strategies? yeah rt? The war was majorly won because of the afghan terrain and the afghan mujahideen guirellas and also things were not going great at home for the reds and the deterioration of soviet union had started by then. tye strategies were completely provided by the US military ad to an extent the afgahn mujahideen AND NOT BY THE PAKI MILITARY (maybe there were jobless pakis fighting the war just like they are doing right now by joinign different terrorist organisations). The problems that pakistan faces today and why it has to pump in so much of itys own resources in fighting the terrorist is becoz of it s own "policies and stragies" that it followed, which was supporting taliban and other hard core terrorist groups and also turnign a blind eye to their recruitment and other unacceptable activities because pakistan wanted to get abck at india for helping bangladesh break away by cultivating terrorsit camps. entire world knows that in paki mosques  on fridays there are people collecting and donating money openly and freely in the name of islam which is used for terrorist activites. so pakistan is not the victim here its the perpetrator. its the paki guy who was the master mind behind 9/11 and the london bombers were trained in pakistan and also the 7 terrorist caught in london recently were alos trained in apkistan which they admitted. yes there are good people in pakistan but majority of them hate US and the wesatern world(no one knows for sure why the master mind of 9/11 who is a paki palnned it in the fiors place, he had no good reason to do that). they hate the same world were they immigrate to and crawl to all the nook and corners of new york or london or sydney abd then support terrorism from tere. pakistan is a country which is created by spiulling blood and it will get washed away in blood in its own blood. god bless america!!

I believe you're right about the US attempting to have India as a strategic ally against China.  India is probably happy to have the US to count on in the event of a problem with China, too.\nThe fear factor of India doesn't make a lot of sense, because India does not have a history of attacking its allies.  The biggest problem for the US, as far as India is concerned, is Pakistan.  India and Pakistan have long had border problems, and the US has been known to step in to play referee on a few of these skirmishes.  Pakistan is also an ally that we need to keep close.

YOU ARE ASKING THE QUESTION WITHOUT KNOWING THE FACTS.  THE BOTH COMMUNITIES HAVE EQUAL ENOUGH PEOPLE IN THE SECURITY OF VIP AND OTHERS SECURITY.  EVEN HEAD OF OUR DEFENCE IS MUSLIM AND HIS NAME IS APJ ABDUL KALAM THE PRESIDENT OF INDIA.

I actually want a distance between India and the Muslim states.\nIn this respect I would prefer India to increase cordiality with states like Japan, the USA, Israel and the EU etc.\n\nAlthough, having stated this, our major long term threat is not Paki Land, it is China.  China has already begun to make inroads everywhere, and if India doesn't try and compete we will show ourselves to be the biggest political novices on the face of the earth.

1. Pakistan and India were one country\n2. When the British occupation started withdrawing from the area, Muslim and Hindu leader agreed to split in grounds of who lives where, the area's with Muslim majority will be part of the new established Pakistan, and the other area's will remain parts of India, the thing with Kashmir that the people where Muslims, but the Maharaja rolling this area were Hindu... and that's how it all started\n\nWhat I thing: India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, and Afghanistan should be united as one federal country as here (USA)

The United States and Pakistan share a close, long-term partnership. The $3 billion, five-year assistance package announced by President Bush in June 2003 demonstrates our commitment to support Pakistan's efforts to strengthen security in the region, help Pakistan's participation in the war on terror, and build economic opportunities for its citizens by reducing poverty, illiteracy and the conditions in which extremism flourishes.    \n\nU.S. debt relief and development assistance for Pakistan will enhance private sector growth, economic reform and good governance.  The $200 million of Economic Support Fund assistance to Pakistan this year and $300 million of Economic Support Funds requested of the Congress for Fiscal Year 2005 target the following areas: \n\n    * At least $100 million of Economic Support Funds for Fiscal Year 2005 will go for social sector support, including university scholarships, new health, education and water projects, and training for local officials, including women councilors.   \n    * $200 million allocated in Economic Support supplemental funding will be applied to debt relief in Fiscal Year 2004.  The United States has led the effort to dramatically reduce Pakistan's official debt through Paris Club rescheduling and bilateral forgiveness.  Pakistan's debt to the United States has been cut in half - by $1.5 billion - freeing up national revenue for programs to improve the quality of life and increase the capacity of Pakistan's local governments to meet the needs of their people.  \n\nOther U.S. government assistance will strengthen education; improve maternal and child health care delivery; strengthen the legislature, local government, political parties, civil society and the independent media; and increase access to micro-credit.\n\nAt the same time, the $300 million Foreign Military Financing assistance requested for next year will strengthen Pakistan's ability to confront terrorist remnants seeking sanctuary in its border regions.  Other security assistance to Pakistan will help strengthen its law enforcement  and counter-narcotics capacities. \n\nTogether, the United States and Pakistan are dismantling the A.Q. Khan network responsible for proliferating nuclear weapons-related technologies.  We will remain vigilant in the fight against the spread of all weapons of mass destruction.   The United States is fully engaged with Pakistan on a range of important nonproliferation issues and is working with Pakistan on steps to bring its export control system in line with international standards

A couple reasons:\n1. India's one of the worlds fastest growing economies so\ngood diplomatic relations create better trade deals.\n2. The US didn't just visit India but also Pakistan. \nFrankly I think that the visit to Pakistan was the main \npurpose of the trip with India thrown in last minute\nin order to quell ideas of favoritism.\n3. India is the worlds largest democracy population wise.\n4. Tensions between Pakistan and India are bad for US\ninterests given Pakistans status as our allies against \nterror and India's presence as a trade partner and producer\nof an well trained labor.

Thats a good point. I always considered India to be a part of Asia, but people do seem to just be refering to Chinese, Japanese, Korean....when they refer to Asian. They don't seem to be refering to India and Pakistan. I'm sure I was taught at school that India is part of Asia.

You again prove the fact that Tortoise are the dumbest creatures in the world, followed closely by "khans" ....\n\nLook at history, your a** was kicked in the 1947, 1965 and 1971 indo-pak wars, as well as your infiltration in kargil, you still need more ? \n\nBy the way, Indian muslims are loyal to India, not like you pakis who would migrate to every corner of the world and then create havoc there by bombing the host country and creating commotion there as well. God only knows how Britain has kept its patience so long with so many morons like you there..\n\nLast but not the least...if you are from pakistan, let me tell you, that you are even unable to govern yourself as yet...how can you talk about India...your first president was from India, and so is your present president...you are yet to find a suitable statesman from your side of the soil...and you talk about changing India ? Go pray in the mosque, maybe Allah will give you some knowledge and peace..!!

Here is my opinion...From what I have seen, Pakistan has been (as a country) cooperative in dealing with violence and terrorism (the War on Terror, if you will...) But as previously stated, there are violent people in ALL societies. To believe that World Peace will ever happen, is a fantasy. I am not being negative, it is just not a possibility in this world. Everyone should look at people as individuals instead of lumping them together with the other people that live in their city, state, country, etc. I know I don't want to be judged based on the things my neighbors do! :)

Well, India has a credible nuclear option with a clear and responsible chain of command. Also, the nuclear option is just a deterrence and India acknowledges the disastrous results of it's usage and will restrain from it's usage until provoked.\n\nBecause there's no more reason for research in nuclear field so it makes sense to reach an agreement to ensure a regular supply of fuel for the power reactors. \n\nThe R&D required, if any, would be in the field of weapons and delivery systems which have no link to this agreement and can go on independent of it.\n\nAs far as playing against Pakistan and China is concerned, the days are past when the world's two biggest economies would think of engaging in war. There's too much at stake for India and China to go to war.\n\nIt's just Pakistan against which India needs to keep it's defences up. Unlike, India Pakistan's economy is in shambles, the nuclear button is in the hands of a General(the government and PM are just puppets) and there are extremists dictatating terms and training Jehadis to spread terrorism all around the world.\n\nI find it laughable when I read an answer that said India invavded Pakistan 3 times!!! It's the other way round. In it's history of 5000 years India has never invaded any country.
