jack_newmann··on Navy SEALs reportedly killed North Korean fishermen to hide a failed mission
> The plan called for the Navy to sneak a nuclear-powered submarine, nearly two football fields long, into the waters... then deploy a small team of SEALs in two mini-subs, each about the size of a killer whales..

What? What is with these measurements?

Such a well thought out response.

So India should ignore how US has been funding a terrorist nation on their border, and hate Putin for a war that is half-the-planet away?

Sorry, but the world does not revolve around USA :)

Humor me -- different how?

India should ignore US support of a nation that sends terrorists to target their civilans... but should proactively care about a war happening thousands of miles from them?

That too, to the extent that the entire country shifts to a much more expensive source of fuel, burning bridges with their longtime ally... I don't really see why they should do that.

Edit: Rephrased my point to be argumentative instead of accusatory
