This is absolute madness.
Pakistan is not going to destroy India without destroying itself.
India has bigger nuclear bombs than them aimed at Pakistan

The term Line of Control (LoC) refers to the military control line between the Indian and Pakistani controlled parts of the former princely state of Kashmir and Jammu—a line which, to this day, does not constitute a legally recognized international boundary but is the de facto border.

Sooner or later someone is going to think a first strike will do it.A coordinated attack might happen since so many think the end of the world is coming, anyway.North Korea is more likely to use the first nuke than Pakistan or India,but when you throw paranoids and Islam in the mix,though,maybe the Pakistanis might get crazy enough to take a chance of martyring their country.

Edit: it's not.

Because the damage to our global population and ecosystem would be so great, the U.S. and Russia need to strike Pakistan's launch-points with conventional missiles, if it becomes clear that Pakistan is serious about nuking India. That's a no-brainer.

I'll concede to you and say you're right that we've been dangerously close. I'll also go as far to say the Doomsday clock is closer to midnight than it's ever been (short history for that organization).

You're welcome.
I'm sorry to say I have more info, and it's bad. Very bad. I subscribe to @DEFCONWS and @DWSIntel on Twitter, and fighting between Pakistan and India has been increasing the past few hours. Here is a summary of their latest tweets:
Pakistan moved 5,000 troops to the LOC
Definition of Line of Control per Wikipedia:
The term Line of Control (LoC) refers to the military control line between the Indian and Pakistani controlled parts of the former princely state of Kashmir and Jammu—a line which, to this day, does not constitute a legally recognized international boundary but is the de facto border.
Wikipedia page abt Line of Control
Ceasefire violation by Pakistan, intermittent firing since 4am local time
Pakistan claimed India violated the cease fire at the Line of Control
As a followup to my earlier post, it has been confirmed that 200,000 people have been evacuated from 1,000 villages because of escalating tensions between Pakistan and India
It's not getting any better, folks. I am concerned that this war will go nuclear if it doesn't end quickly. n
