What's with indians trying to save their country's utter humiliation by claiming "announcement" and actual strike produce same geopolitical impact?
Talk about catching at the straws. Who are we kidding here?
So if Mexican army says "we conducted surgical strike in U.S desert 1km inside" and U.S military LAUGHS at it---you think Mexicans achieved a "victory" over the U.S?
Also, any artillery gun can strike targets within 5 kms in LoC of with very effective precision. Who the hell would send their elite troops to strike just 2 kms inside
heavily guarded enemy territory when same can be done by artillery fire?
Surgical Strike---ACTUAL strike--is something akin to what U.S did in Quetta through her air assets, or even OBL operation.
Pakistan Army's internal image has only strengthened after this fiasco--with media and our military officials laughing at Indian claims and portraying that indian military is so tied up by us that they have to resort to "claims" and "press conferences" rather than actual action in Pakistan's territory to satisfy their gullible crowds. And all of that when india is the
bigger power in the confrontation. Oh God, this is seriously embarrassing.
Gives us a kind of confidence booster.
Today, Lt. General Asim Bajwa was literally giggling while showing International media the LoC area and comedic value of indian claims with literally zero evidence on the ground.
