True. We don't want that - - for India.
But the US can take it, and fight fire with fire if need be. Plus, another 4 years of the current orange i.d.i.o.t in the WH would hurt, well, the whole world. I, for one, am not looking forward to that. The racist in chief already:
1) Is in war with the WHO and stopped much needed funding for them, during a damn pandemic
2) Revoked the Paris climate agreement and calls climate change a hoax
3) Backed out the Iran nuclear deal, which resulted in Iran meddling with Uranium again
4) Reduced the pollution norms to a bare minimum, so that he and his billionaire friends' businesses would benefit
And he has done much more damage that affects the whole world, so much so that one page wouldn't be enough for the list. And, he has done most of this in spite, the only reason being Obama did all of those. So he HAS to back out every deal Obama made. He's nerve damaged like that
P. S:
Even though I support your idea of fighting China with aggressive tactics, I would still support and hope for a relatively peaceful proceeding between India and China. Because if things really really escalate, and if a military combat happens, then like you said, they are warmongers - - unfortunately with a much much more refined and stocked artillery than us. I don't see a good result for us in such an unfortunate scenario. May be we could win, if our dearest ally, the United States, sends in troops and war ships to help us. And if Tronald Dump is still at the helm when (God forbid, won't happen) such a tragedy unfolds for us, I see that 'if' turning into a big, big, 'IF'. Because I don't trust him in a life or death situation
