Pakistan Defence Minister Khawaja Asif on Friday said that Islamabad has “no option left other than full a blown war” in response to what he described as India’s increasingly aggressive posture over the past four days
Here’s an idea: Let’s take the five or six middle-aged male politicians (because it’s almost always middle-aged male politicians) from each side who want to send their own people to war and put them in a big room with baseball bats.
My bet is it will be like those viral videos where dogs bark at each other when there’s a gate in the way, but if someone opens the gate, they just stare at each other and look nervous.
Whatever happens in there, it’s to have absolutely no bearing on their countries or the rest of the world, but they’re not allowed to come out until they all need a hospital.
And if they still want war after that, they go back in the room.

Unfortunately it’s not just politicians doing this. A lot of people hate each other for no other reason than they’re from a different country/religion/race.
Yeah, but it’s those politicians who’ll send their compatriots to war.
If instead they’d started walking the propaganda back rather than lighting fires under everyone and getting everyone mad, it might have averted this. (Past tense because it might already be too late by the look of it). And one way to convince blood-thirsty ivory tower dwellers that war is a bad idea is that room I mentioned.
I mean, I saw a video the other day of children at a kindergarten or primary school where a little boy declared that he wanted to see the destruction of the other country. I forget now which country the boy was from, but it doesn’t matter. The politicians on each side have been fomenting hate for decades when they could have been doing the opposite, and that, unlike money, actually does trickle down.
Sure the mouth pieces of any country help, but at the end of the day, they’re not the ones pulling the trigger or killing each other. The tourist attacks could have been prevented by the people who did them…all they had to do was not do them. They chose to because they’re hateful people. A politician might have fanned the flames but as I said people hate each other because of some of the dumbest reasons.

Lol, I just posted a similar idea. Leader death match streaming available!
You’d have to use cricket bats, but it’s not the worst idea
It would be exactly like this viral video

Yes, religion is a charged topic here. Especially after the recent terrorist attack.
How is that gonna solve the people in each country hating the other due to incompatible religion or whatever the issue of the day is
Sounds like a Kilgore Trout story
I really hope there is a parallel universe where this happens, I wish it with every fiber of my being
