Neither side will disarm because both don't believe the other side will honestly disarm. This is a PR move, nothing more.

I'd agree if I were India. Get US inspectors to ensure transparency in both side's disarmament. If the Pakis don't go through with it, you come out smelling like roses. If the Paki's do disarm, you've just gotten rid of the biggest nuclear proliferation threat in the world. And who cares about China? They aren't going to launch a first-strike against you and the Himalayas should slow up any conventional attack long enough to allow you to deal with it.

Smelling like roses doesn't keep you from feeling as dumb as an idiot if you've just gotten rid of your nuclear weapons and your enemy hasn't.If the Pakis don't go through with it, you come out smelling like roses."I read a book twice as fast as anybody else.

It´s just sad and the world would be a safer place without them. (especially, if you think about the fact, that most larger strategic nukes are intended to be launched at Cities and therefore are Weapons not to fight against the military, but to strike civilians)
I don't know this to be true. I bet the US and USSR would have had at least one war during the Cold War, if they had not been available.I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891Comment

You'd obviously wait to see if the Pakis were really going through with the disarmament before you destroyed all your nukes. Just destroy a few of yours and then wait to see if Pakistan follows suit; India has more nukes than Pakistan anyway, so they can spare a few.KH FOR OWNER!

Yep, what Dal said. There's no way India's going to disarm their nukes considering China."Beware of the man who works hard to learn something, learns it, and finds himself no wiser than before. He is full of murderous resentment of people who are ignorant without having come by their ignorance the hard way. "

I once got in a fight with my sister with wooden spoons as weapons. We were giving each other really big welts, and while we were still mad at each other we thought it would be better not to use weapons. I told her that if she put her wooden spoon down that I would. So, she put down her wooden spoon. I smacked her with mine.
The I will if you will thing is so stupid, and it is not the first step in negotiating. One should lead by example, not ask other to...of courseComment

i doubt it'll happen...seems to be 'for show' only. But that would be nice

Yeah, India will never agree. But at least it gives rise to some optimism.“I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”
