India on Track for Huge Military Buildup

The race for arms, weaponry, and military power never ends. European powers pursued it for centuries before finally seeing the foolishness of their ways in the last generation. Japan embraced it before having itself obliterated in World War II and swearing it off. America has been infatuated with it for over 60 years now with no end in sight. And now rising powers China and India are hellbent on joining the game with incredible forces, weapons, and military technology. The merchants of death have always been with us and always will be as long as people of vision continue to barely exist in centers of power around the globe.
