Yeah, India would flatten them. And there's no way the Pakistani government is going to get in a war with India and vice versa. If anything ISIS might make the two governments become allies lol.

This is what desperation looks like. Turkey has joined the fight, PKK is against them, US is training Iraqi soldiers and militia. They're throwing shit at the wall to see what sticks.

They could create problems with terrorist and guerrilla attacks but...

???

A conventional ISIS military attack on India? India wouldn't need our help at all to absolutely wreck them. It would actually be a convenient way to cause mass casualties among ISIS.

If that's what they're planning... well, have fun with that.

It's just recruiting material.

Pat Robertson actively runs a campaign for donations to sponsor Jews to return to live in Israel, which fulfills some nonsense in the Book of Revelations to bring about Armageddon and the Rapture. No one seems to care about that.

There would be nothing to rebuild. That rogue country would likely be completely nuked. It would literally be lifeless ruins. After some time you could go in and start drilling for oil.

I am not quite sure how that would work. They planning to get nukes from Pakistan and Nuke India? Then what? India nukes the whole region and ISIS somehow....wins?
Or are they planning to attack India with this rag-tag bunch of groupies, maybe with the help of the Pakistani and Afghani taliban/Army? They will still get obliterated and will somehow.....win?

The Romans used to crucify. I say bring it back, and sun bake and drip dry each and every last one of these ISIS cunts, then send their bodies home with a warning to their families to settle down.

Enough is enough.

Every major power would have contingency plans in place if Pakistan ever losses control of it's nukes, I just feel sorry for the innocent Pakistani civilians who would be caught in the middle

ITT: People don't think the US has considered this possibility and planned for it

According to military and intelligence sources, any answer to a Pakistani nuclear crisis would involve something along the following lines: If a single weapon or a small amount of nuclear material were to go missing, the response would be contained -- Abbottabad redux, although with a higher potential for U.S. casualties. The United States Joint Special Operations Command maintains rotating deployments of specially trained units in the region, most of them Navy SEALs and Army explosive-ordnance-disposal specialists, who are trained to deal with nuclear weapons that have fallen into the wrong hands. Their area of operation includes the former Soviet states, where there is a large amount of loose fissile material, and, of course, Pakistan. JSOC “has units and aircraft and parachutes on alert in the region for nuclear issues, and regularly inserts units and equipment for prep,” says a military official who was involved in supporting these technicians.

Seizing or remotely disabling a weapon of mass destruction is what’s known in military jargon as a “render-safe mission” -- and JSOC has evidently pulled off such missions before. In his memoir, Hugh Shelton, who chaired the Joint Chiefs of Staff from 1997 to 2001, recalls an incident from the 1990s in which the CIA told the Special Operations Command that a ship had left North Korea with what Shelton describes as “an illegal weapon” on board. Where it was headed, the U.S. didn’t know. He wrote: “It was a very time-sensitive mission in which a specific SEAL Team Six component was called into action. While I cannot get into the tactical elements or operational details of this mission, what I can say is that our guys were able to ‘immobilize’ the weapon system in a special way without leaving any trace.”

Is this a sign they are getting desperate? I don't know the stats but I can only imagine they aren't killing nearly enough people as their own numbers are getting cut down.

It would be nice if they gathered all in one place and waited for the final battle.

Preferably far away from any civilians, civilian buildings, or anything of worth.

India has Sikhs in its Army. They don't play around!

Another brilliant example of bravery by the Indian army was during the Battle of Saragarhi on 12th September 1897. In this battle, 21 Sikhs fought against 10,000 Afghans. All 21 Sikhs died in this battle, and there were 400-600 casualties on the Afghan side. This battle is often cited as one of the greatest last stands in history, often compared to the Battle of Thermopylae, where King Leonidas fought Persian army of Xerxes in 480 BC with an army of 300 Spartan soldiers.

They seem too ruthless to their own members to even attempt to command an army too large. They're a bunch of animals who will turn on each other over petty disagreements and split into factions again.

I think India has a pretty big army that can deal with them.

The Indian Armed Forces are the federal military forces of the Union of Republic of India. It consists of four professional uniformed services: the Indian Army, Indian Navy, Indian Air Force and Indian Coast Guard. Additionally, the Indian Armed Forces are supported by two paramilitary organisations[13] (Assam Rifles and Special Frontier Force) and various inter-service institutions such as the Strategic Forces Command. The President of India is the Supreme Commander of the Indian Armed Forces. The Indian Armed Forces are under the management of the Ministry of Defence (MoD), which is led by the Union Cabinet Minister of Defence. With strength of over 1.3 million active personnel, it is world's 3rd largest military force and has the world's largest volunteer army.

The minute that happens India wipes Pakistan of the map. Israël does the same with any target they can hit in the confusion. They get a slap on the wrist and IS is gone.

I was part of this mission in CoD 4.

Yeah, basically. This amazing Atlantic article put it like this:

Graeme Wood said:
(ISIS) rise to power is less like the triumph of the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt (a group whose leaders the Islamic State considers apostates) than like the realization of a dystopian alternate reality in which David Koresh or Jim Jones survived to wield absolute power over not just a few hundred people, but some 8 million.

So it's not really that they're delusional, they just really believe in their ideology, and their ideology requires warfare and a pursuit of Armageddon.

To say they're delusional would be to assume they want to survive as a nation. They don't. They want the end of the world.
