Hawaii\u2019s ballistic missile attack <\/a>on Saturday turned out to be nothing more than fat-fingered “fake news” by State officials. However, a far more significant threat of nuclear war is growing on the border between India and Pakistan, called the Line of Control (LoC), which continues to be generally ignored by Western media outlets.<\/p>\n

Indian\u00a0Army Chief General Bipin Rawat said Friday his military was ready to call Pakistan\u2019s\u00a0\u201cnuclear bluff<\/a>\u201d and carry out aggressive military operations across the border.<\/p>\n

“We will call the (nuclear) bluff of Pakistan. If we will have to really confront the Pakistanis, and a task is given to us, we are not going to say we cannot cross the border because they have nuclear weapons. <\/strong>We will have to call their nuclear bluff,” Gen. Rawat warned, responding to a question during a press conference\u00a0on the \u201cpossibility of Pakistan using its nuclear weapons in case the situation along the border deteriorates,\u201d said the Hindustan Times<\/a>.<\/p>\n

On Saturday,\u00a0Pakistan\u2019s Foreign Minister Khawaja Asif unleashed a Tweetstorm denouncing Rawat\u2019s\u00a0comments as\u00a0\u201cvery irresponsible. Amounts to invitation for nuclear encounter. If that is what they desire, they are welcome to test our resolve. The general\u2019s\u00a0doubt would swiftly be removed, inshallah.\u201d<\/p>\n
