Im glad that it is over and you and your family are safe.View attachment 50684 Sindoor (Vermillion) that married Hindu women adorn the hair-parting with.
India-Pakistan war (7-9 My) The Epilogue
The shortest war between two nuclear-powers. Pakistan asked for cease-fire on day 4.
"Firstpost" is a generally critic of Modi's party and government.
One doesn't get to choose their race or ethnicity.I have no sympathy for cultures that willfully perpetuate hatred based in race, rthnicity, and religion.
We had no worry about it. We knew it will only be at the terror locations on the border, and nuclear bombs are just for boasting.Im glad that it is over and you and your family are safe.
It hasn't ended. Not one thing has changed. It's just on a temporary pause.We had no worry about it. We knew it will only be at the terror locations on the border, and nuclear bombs are just for boasting.Im glad that it is over and you and your family are safe.
Even Pakistanis hugely enjoyed the war and were sorry that it ended so soon.
You are correct. It has not ended but the fireworks are over.It hasn't ended. Not one thing has changed. It's just on a temporary pause.
I have no doubt that in Pakistan, India is reported to be out of action for at least six months.You are correct. It has not ended but the fireworks are over.It hasn't ended. Not one thing has changed. It's just on a temporary pause.
(Pakistan is reported to be out of action for at least six months)
Since the partition of British India in 1947 and subsequent creation of the dominions of India and Pakistan, the two countries have been involved in a number of wars, conflicts, and military standoffs. A long-running dispute over Kashmir and cross-border terrorism have been the predominant cause of conflict between the two states, with the exception of the Indo-Pakistani War of 1971, which occurred as a direct result of hostilities stemming from the Bangladesh Liberation War in erstwhile East Pakistan (now Bangladesh).
It was the British - a "western liberal democracy" - that broke up India along religious and ethnic lines, causing decades of bitter conflict. That's not exactly "broker[ing] peace and profitable trade".It is western liberal democracies that try to broker peace and profitable trade. Mantain a glabl order.
The rest is anarchy.
What we consider as success was bombing of 9 major centers of terrorism (indoctrination, training and dispatch) in which reportedly some 160 of them died on the night of May 7, the first night of the war.Neither side achieved a single solitary thing, so inevitably both are crowing about their "success" for domestic consumption.
No, it wasn't.This was something that we had to do after years of provocation.
Does your country have as exalted neighbors as Pakistan, China and Bangladesh; two of them with nuclear bombs?And it achieved three eighths of fuck all. So if you had to do it, then you still have to. But you didn't, you don't, and you shouldn't.
1. Who asked for cease-fire: Everyone did.The most perfect measure of the success of a military action are the following:
1. Who asked for cease-fire: Pakistan did.
2. How long it took them to capitulate: on the fourth morning of the war.*
3. Who dictated the terms of cease-fire: India did, including the continuation of the suspension of the Indus water treaty.
Literally every part of that is obviously wrong.Nobody knows Pakistanis better than Indians. But either you are grossly ill-informed or grossly biased about the recent war.
You say that like it's a good thing.By next year, we may have SU-57s and Match-5 Brahmos cruise missiles.
You have my sympathies.They have already been tested.
Yes, we will be better equipped than what we are today.You say that like it's a good thing.
