    I thought a good book about the "partition" was Freedom at Midnight.

    It has been few years since I have read it, but I remember that it seemed to give a good overlook of the events.

      Great top comment. "Ziplining while staring into your device. The faint sounds of bombs going off in the distance. This is 2025."

        Don’t know whether to laugh or cry.

                  So, what we know for sure is that Pakistan wanted the world to think they have received confirmed intelligence that India will strike within 24 to 36 hours.

                  Education is extremely important.

                    The consensus on that thread is India will crush them. Swell.

                    Islam just keeps making trouble in the world.

                            They're much like birds dancing to seek a mate. But you can see the British influence in the ceremonies.

                                        https://www.scmp.com/week-asia/politics/article/3308428/why-pakistan-india-war-would-be-chinese-vs-western-arms-proving-ground

                                        Pakistan’s arsenal of Chinese-made and jointly developed weapons could clash with India’s mix of French, Russian and domestically produced military hardware amid rising warnings of an “imminent” conflict between the South Asian rivals.

                                        China, the US and the rest of the international community have expressed hopes that tensions between the nuclear-armed adversaries will not escalate into a full-blown war. Still, many observers are closely monitoring a potential first-ever confrontation between Chinese military assets and Nato-standard weaponry.

                                        Should war break out between Pakistan and India, the performance of their weapons would be closely analysed by military planners around the world, and lessons integrated into national defence strategies – particularly in the Indo-Pacific strategic theatre, where China and the US are engaged in a fierce geopolitical competition.
