    Pakistan carries out new missile test

    http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/south_asia/3173362.stm

    Pakistan has carried out its second test in a week of a missile capable of carrying nuclear weapons.

    The test took place in the early hours of Wednesday morning, but the military refused to say where it was fired.

    The Hatf-4, also known as the Shaheen 1, has a range of 700 kilometres (435 miles), meaning it could reach almost all targets in neighbouring India.

    On Friday, Pakistan tested a short-range Hatf-III Ghaznavi missile that rival India dismissed as nothing new.

    The tests are the first by Pakistan since peace moves began with rival India six months ago.

    "We have successfully test fired the Shaheen 1," said military spokesman Major General Shaukat Sultan. "It can carry all kinds of warheads."

    A military statement said Pakistan had notified neighbouring countries, including India, ahead of the test in what it called "a spirit of confidence building."

    "The test is part of the ongoing series of tests of Pakistan's indigenous missile systems," it said.

    "All technical parameters required to be tested were successfully validated."

    In 1998, Pakistan and India conducted a series of tit-for-tat tests on nuclear weapons, leading to sanctions by the international community.

    Wednesday's test was Pakistan's third this year, and India has also carried out several missile tests in 2003.

    pffft, dunno why every1 is so scared...

    so what if pakistan and india nuke each other, **** em.
    there is another country in this world that devloped nukes and carrried out lots of tests and has no real reason to have nuclear weapons and that is the UK. dont see you all stressing about that. at the moment we have a balance of power in that region as they both have nukes, so neither is gonna risk a strike, kind of like rubbishrubbishrubbishrubbishting in your own back garden anyway. you guys should be more worried about our own government (that posseses nukes) going round starting illigitimate wars and ramming its tounge up george bush`s arse.

    I don’t think the U.K.’s current government can be compared to the governments of India and Pakistan (regardless of what you think about Blair). Both sides having nuclear weapons might, hopefully, force them to talk and reach a peaceful solution. Although with the sort of religious hatred that exists in both countries I’m not holding my breath. If the USA and USSR had not had nuclear weapons during the Cold War, it might have been more likely to become a hot war, i.e. World War III. Lets hope it doesn’t turn into a hot war nuclear war between India and Pakistan.

    G4Z a nuclear war anywhere in the world would have serious consequences for all of us. The people killed instantly at ground zero might turn out to be the "lucky" ones.

    I've purposely left Drunken Poncho's post there so that you can all mock him and see what an immature fool he has the capability of being.

    Please guys, try to keep the thread clean, and DISCUSS, DONT INSULT.

    anders, I know what your saying, and of course your right. we would get serious fallout.... but... would it be so bad if these 2 countries that seem to do nothing but fight each other and burden the world their ever increasing populations nuked each other?

    I just think that neither country really has any redeeming qualities, even in inda where they used to get along there is more and more fighting between different religions than ever before. bombing mosques and stuff. I just think, take the fallout issue aside (and lets face it we have plenty of radiation floating around anyway from hiroshima, chyrnobyl and of course our very own sun) would it be so bad if they blew each other up? I know I wouldnt miss them. Harsh maybe but I think fair






    would at least stop UK companies outsourcing for a bit, at least until they find another labour pool to exploit...

    We cant really expect them to disarom though when we and other large countrys such as the USA carry on having the weapons, If we expect them to disarm then surly we should also do the same.

    There is a very good argument regarding India and Pakistan HAVING to resolve their differences peacefully now.

    interesting reading

    i really think that if one nation uses nuclear weaponary then we will have world war 3 to worry about and ultimately that could result in sendung us back to the stoneage.
