Seriously. Feel free to whack me with a Clue by Four.

Not trying to evade or be obstinate just don’t understand your objection.

Thanks.

Seriously. Feel free to whack me with a Clue by Four.

Seven plus One already tried to. We cannot go into a foreign country, especially one like India, with our military and do whatever we want to. Even if things get seriously nasty. It would be a huge international incident if we did. A major setback in relations if we even acted like we would.

Our own security details, working under the close supervision of Indian authorities, yes. But they would never allow military boots on the ground. That's why I asked earlier what good warships would be. India has war ships and they control their own waters. There is no possible use for ours there.

If targets on the ground needed striking India would do it themselves. Using heavy air or sea power would be a bizarre way to deal with a terrorist cell on your own soil anyway. It would be highly insulting to India to even offer military assistance beyond the basic security detail.

Here is an example of how easy it is to upset relations with another country.
