It's too late.

So all you do is get these people killed because the Chinese have got the road system all set up in there.

So that doesn't exactly work.

But after the 1962 war, all the way until 1979, when Deng Xiaoping calls it off, the Chinese are funding insurgencies of, let's see, the Mizos, the Manapouri, and the Naga.

people all don't like different aspects of Indian rule, and the Chinese are more than happy to stir that pot.

And the really big pot to stir are the Naxalites.

It's huge.

And while, as long as the Pakistanis have got East Pakistan, they can

stir some of that up.

And by the way, these Naxalites are still there in India.

They have not gone away.

It's a serious part of India where they are.

And then of course, Pakistan's location right next to Kashmir means they can stir that forever.

And the tragedy of these, what they become are frozen conflicts, is the outside power, if they are playing their cards right, their immoral cards right, they're not bearing any of the costs.

They're pinning someone they don't particularly like.

All the costs are borne by the local population who are suffering horrendous deaths, lack of economic growth, you're just having warfare where you live.

What a total disaster.

So that's how it works.

Another, two can play at this game.

So the Indians, according to the Pakistanis, have funded the Baloch people.
