India v. Pakistan will not happen so long as Afghanistan is a trouble spot, and we need Pakistan to behave itself. The question is how long Pakistan can hold together internally. If/when it collapses, we will claim their nukes, and break them down strategically, so that India, as to only force prepped for the task, in exchange for Kashmir, can pour in with minimal bloodshed to the disputed and rural areas to preserve our supply lines. But without a central government it wouldn't be much of a fight.

Islamic nations would obviously rush to defend Pakistan.

Why would you say that?

If anything, friendly Muslim states like Saudi Arabia and Turkey will side with us to the cities and maintain order. Iran might try to take advantage, but that would guarantee Saudi, Turkey and Gulf State involvement on multiple fronts without any clear objectives.

Europe would have to take sides at some point and would certainly not offend the Islamic world.

Europe will swing back nationalist long before they are that deep enough in Islams pocket. They haven't really had their 9/11 yet that wasn't attached to Iraq. Wait till Germany or France gets it.

Australia is rapidly becoming an economic colony of China and is moving quickly away from the US, so it will probably have to take sides with whatever nation China supports.

Why would you say that?

Brazil is turning into a major power. How would it respond? The nations of Africa are enjoying large investments from China. They would likely side with China - except in those nations with large Muslim populations.

Brazil has neither a dog in this fight nor means to influence it. They will side with whomever can protect their interest. Us. Mr. Chavez may be a different matter.
