I fail to understand all this high-end statecraft and realpolitik, assuming the Indian government has a definite plan.
Each day they say something else. We will do this, we will do that. Ten Pak soldiers got killed, oops wait, they didn't!
Surely all this is part of some grand plan and not just our government making a fool of itself and the military? Can any knowledgeable member please enlighten me as to what is going on?
Dear indian,
You had a plan and it was set in motion with the blessing of your patron saint- read: not local South Asian deity.
Quite grand in its scale and depth of its scope. It almost worked.
A combination of good luck and Pak State finally getting its act together made the grand plan impotent.
Your new PM did inheret this plan in action but instead of harvesting with patience your new establishment went in overdrive to achieve a certain deadline before a certain date in time.
The said plan would have worked...but as I said...goodluck played its role.
Good luck hier is meant as Speculative Agency, not Operative. Would leave it to your rich imagination...
This thing called Panama leaks, Gen. RS and his team, Pak Peoples Coherence... the rest is now history, really.
At the moment your government and strategic community are trying to find a compelling narrative...to build a new Grand Plan. They have to capitalise internal gains on external actions. All politics is local, as you know already.
However, now the equations are changing faster and Pak is not really Alone. Pak has Friends who, again Goodluck, need Pak more than ever. Some kind of lost love found again. Meta-Material Design? Or just circle completing itself is difficult to determine.
At the moment Kashmir is on the boil and by the looks of things will remain hot. NE is heating up and you are looking at Summer of Discontent there as well. Perhaps a bit more...
What has happened is that your PM and his team somehow miscalculated the global dynamics and went for breakout strategy i.e. breaking the chains of South Asian confinement... in the process they have stepped on rather large claws..
I hope it helps the enigma to be less opaque.
Regards,
SPF
PS.
War is Stupid. Only Stupids want war.
We- you, others and I, - must do our best to discourage people from such dark fantasies. Goodhearted humour is allowed every now and then... but people should realise WAR means The End for everyone.
I guess those Brave ones here on PDF have never seen the Real Action..hence super machoismo and pathetic warmongering.
