Potential for wars in South Asia, Middle East rising

Prophecy Sign: Wars and rumors of wars

You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come. Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. Matthew 24:6-7 NIV

From the article:

Last month The Economist carried a cover story titled "The World's Most Dangerous Border." It described the growing tensions between India and Pakistan, both nuclear powers, whose armies have fought three wars since 1948. Kashmir, claimed by both sides, is a flash point where extremists intend to precipitate another war.

India showed enormous restraint two years ago when terrorists, backed by elements of Pakistan's Inter-Services Intelligence agency (ISI), launched a major attack on tourist facilities in Mumbai (Bombay) and killed 166 people, including six Americans. Despite public clamor in India for retaliation, its government resisted taking military action but suspended diplomatic talks that were under way to reduce tensions. How should Obama respond if another attack occurs and can be traced to the ISI, India retaliates with an armed attack on Pakistan, and Pakistan responds by using a nuclear weapon against India?
