And I wonder why it is so hard for you to understand that NS commanded so much power that nothing could have moved behind him. He was well aware of Kargil plan. I have always admired India's diplomatic machinery but as I have already stated in an earlier post, we have not been as blessed as India in our civilian leaders. No wonder we look to the Military whenever in deep ****. You want a simple example, look at statements issued by NS on Kargil, he declared that Pakistan lost somewhere around 4k soldiers where as even Indian figures for casualties on Pakistani side top at around 1k. These are the civilian leaders that we have, no wonder Musharraf routed NS's tyrant *** to SA.
You are correct that we should have calculated the international response and perhaps we did but incorrectly, especially the reaction from US which was very demoralizing for the civilian Government as they forced us to back off instead of lending any support to Kashmir cause.
Whenever I look back at Kargil, I wonder if we should have done that when the Soviets started withdrawing from Afghanistan as then the US would have been forced to help us politically internationally.
Please have a look at the earlier posts, have a look at my earlier posts in which I personally have explained the reason and planning behind Kargil. It was never meant to be more then a few thousand fighters because of tactical and political reasons. If you understand what was planned and achieved, you would stop statements on poor tactics and organization, plans etc.
