Why do you guys have to post stupid misleading statements? Upon partition, Pakistani military was commanded by a British, who refused to engage Indian Military in Kashmir upon Jinnah's orders. Our militia had to face the Indian military and were able to hold on to the area already liberated.
Pakistani militia, invaded and captured territory of Hari singh's kingdom, When IA intervened, your militia bolted fast, pretty fast!
Get out of Indian controlled Wikipedia and face facts, I have been posting this again and again that just because there are 7-8 Indians for every Pakistani it does not mean their stories become facts. It was your military commander that exposed the fact that your military had exhausted her war supplies and was not equipped to continue the war where as on the other hand, Pakistan could have continued to fight for a much longer period. Fact is, had India been in such a strong position as is posted on Indian sites or India dominated web then India would not have ended the war in a stalemate.
India's chief of army staff urged negotiations on the ground that they were running out ammunition and their number of tanks had become seriously depleted. In fact, the army had used less than 15% of its ammunition compared to Pakistan, which had consumed closer to 80 percent and India had double the number of serviceable tanks.
Personally, I would have taken even a stalemate as considerable insult as the adversary was 1/7th the size or even smaller. But where Indians are concerned, no insult is 'low' enough.
Absolutely true, but then again facts are not on your side buddy, What started out as a pakistani agression saw indian troops taking the fight back to pakistan, right upto your cities. I call that a a pretty dismal performance for the so called martial race, what say?
If you want to know what happened in Kargil, all you have to do really is look at what happened later in 01/02. You may not have learnt your lesson as the lesson taught to you may have been very misleading but your Military had learned the lesson in '65 and so never really dared to cross the border either in '99 or in '01/'02. Big talk of invasion and surgical strikes proved to be hot air as usual.
If you want to know what happened in kargil, you need to look up facts about kargil,
> there was a comprehensive
retreat
>your-ex priminister claimed it as a mistake
>your own priministers account of 4000 casulty despite being in higher postions of tactical advantage
>your army saw it's own jawans and officers being deccimated with our airforce and arty, but stood witness helplessly
>Your army couldn't even claim the dead bodies of its own officers and jawans
>Your priminister was pleading to clinton for intervention
>Pakistan's primary diplomatic response, one of plausible deniability linking the incursion to what it officially termed as "Kashmiri freedom fighters", was in the end not successful
>G8 nations supported India and condemned the Pakistani violation of the LOC at the Cologne summit. The European Union also opposed Pakistan's violation of the LOC.
>China, a long-time ally of Pakistan, insisted on a pullout of forces to the pre-conflict positions along the LoC and settling border issues peacefully.
>Other organizations like the ASEAN Regional Forum too supported India's stand on the inviolability of the LOC
Spartans at Thermopylae were not ordered to retreat, however they eventually perished 'heroes'. The rest of the post does not merit a response.
A nation that surrender 55000 military personell doesn't deserve to be equated to spartans in any way or form, sorry!
