From a conversation with Brigadier "Aman" Amanullah (ret),
formerly the chief of Pakistan's military intelligence in
Sind Province, which borders India and includes Pakistan's
biggest city and a cultural center, Karachi. Aman in 53.
Currently a liaison with Benazir Bhutto and the Paki military.

Two hundred million dead! How's that for a death wish?

I told Aman that I was disturbed by the ease with which Pakistanis talk of nuclear war with India. Aman shook his head. "No," he said matter-of-factly. "This should happen. We should use the bomb. ... We should fire at them and take out a few of their cities - Delhi, Bombay, Calcutta," he said. "They should fire back and take Karachi and Lahore. Kill off a hundred or two hundred million people. They should fire at us and it would all be over. ... We should teach them a lesson. It would teach all of us a lesson. There is no future here...My children have no future. None of the children of Pakistan have a future. We are surrounded by nothing but war and suffering. Millions should die away."

The frightening thought is can you imagine the reaction of the Navy or the Air Force if they found a missile commander or submariner boomer captain with this attitude ?
