The NEW India and Pakistan War ?

Fox News: Reports on the growing tension between India and Pakistan as a result of the Bombay Terror Attacks. As the The Times of London of late reported that Pakistan had made a threat to move its troops from the border between Afghanistan and Pakistan if the tensions between India and Pakistan grew, Fox reports that Pakistan is moving its troops from the border between Pakistan and Afghanistan to the border between India and Pakistan. I have to be admit thought this issue had been dealt with by the Bush Administration, the Secretary of State, Condi Rice made a visit to India while Senator McCain visited Pakistan as to cool the environment. It seems that President - Elect Obama could face a major war between India and Pakistan on his first day on the job. This is a time for Bush and Obama to work together, they should send Condi Rice and Hillary Clinton to the Indian and Pakistan, also use Bill Clinton to keep the lid on this boiling pot of trouble. If Pakistan and India go to War the War on Terror could be hurt badly, the terrorists would have a free hand on the border between Afghanistan and Pakistan, the Government of Pakistan could fall, what if the terrorists get hold of the bomb. The West has to get his stick out, carrot has not helped, e.g dollars, thus both Pakistan and and India have to be informed that the West can not allow these games between the two get out of hand. The UK and USA has a large presence in Afghanistan and the region, thus India and Pakistan will have to behave as grow ups.
