Is India really wanting to start a war because you don’t agree with someone over philosophy?
A war with who? The US? Not a chance that happens over something like this. What would the US’ achievable war aims even be that could possibly justify the human and economic costs of a war with India? And I mean that both ways; not only how many American military deaths would the US be willing to incur just to make a point about their sovereignty but how many Indian casualties would the US be willing to inflict over the state-sanctioned murder of one non-US citizen on their territory? How many would be appropriate? I would submit that the most rational and likely answer is none.
Most “acts of war” don’t start wars. At worst the US would probably impose sanctions against the Indian government officials they believed were involved. Given how much they want India as a partner to blunt China it would more likely be strongly worded statements of condemnation and back room tut-tutting. The US isn’t going to fight a war against one of their top 10 trading partners and disrupt maritime shipping in the Indian Ocean over the murder of a foreign dissident on American soil.
No, but other countries might. Canada has the right to view it as an act of war and drag everyone along with it.
You honestly think Canada will start a war over this? There is no way
See History of India
True
They probably just thought they could get away with it and nobody would care.
India still needs to learn how to behave like a first-world nation.
India or Modi?
Yes.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
The murder-for-hire charges against the man, Nikhil Gupta, 52, were announced by the Justice Department days after American officials had expressed concerns to the Indian government about the suspected assassination plot against the separatist.
And the charges came just months after Prime Minister Justin Trudeau of Canada accused the Indian government of involvement in the June killing of another Sikh separatist, Hardeep Singh Nijjar, in Vancouver, British Columbia.
Mr. Pannun is an outspoken proponent of independence for the northern Indian state of Punjab, which is home to a large number of Sikhs, a powerful but minority group in the nation.
director, to visit India to discuss the suspected assassination plot and press the Indian government to hold those involved responsible, according to U.S. officials familiar with the events.
Indian’s Ministry of External Affairs said Wednesday that the United States had “shared some inputs pertaining to nexus between organized criminals, gun runners, terrorists and others” and that the government had convened a committee to investigate.
That individual, who was not identified, is accused of recruiting Mr. Gupta, who prosecutors say then hired a hit man to kill Mr. Pannun and provided personal information about him, including his home address in New York City and details about his daily activities.
