War against terror Cost Pakistan $107 Billion

[544_delta]

look at those vehicles offering zero protection to soldiers inside... must have been either poor planning or non-availability of resources and i would think its the latter. Nevertheless, some good blood also will be shed when its a war of such a huge scale... next thing is, making those areas developed and worthy of sacrifice of those 500 men.

the lessons we learnt were pretty damned costly man...but lessons were learnt nevertheless..

IEDs, Sniper fire and ambushes. Plus, the terrorists had advantage of having dug in positions on mountains. The terrain were extremely hostile for ground based ops in these regions.

all the more reason to use APCs

 

[Furqan Sarwar]

Joint Collaboration between military was lacking in the beginning which led to too much losses. When the air force was deployed then losses became less and less.

The apc`s in our inventory are not suitable for those kind of hilly terrain,we should also keep in mind that to never underestimate our enemy who have master(hit and run) kind of battles over the decades.

A war worth fighting for. PA has done a good job.

What I Don't understand is that why is troop movement only not Confined to APC's?
When 500 get killed,There's something seriously wrong man.

Simple we dont have enough cash to buy APC,s tropps are transported mainly tbrough unprotected Hilaxes

500 Soldiers martyred.Why?
Would've been better if Bajwa saab tried to explain that
Can someone tell me how the heck did we lost 500 Lives to those BASTARDS? -_-
Ohhh Don't tell me some bushmen terrorist opened fire on this

Its not understandable for me that PA lost 500 men to those fucking scums especially when you're on the offense against Ground forces.
Someone care to explain?
This saddens me man,500 Another addition to the numbers of innocents killed at least they got the chance to fight.
Government should make a memorabilia to every single Pakistani that has been killed due to terrorism.
There has been a holocaust going on against our people and it should not be forgotten.

Don't be deceived by the militants wishy washy appearance and lack of advanced equipment, they are very well trained. It's a miracle we beat them so quickly.

Yeah but ask yourself how many militants died/were captured in comparison.

Rephrase it to ----- soldier's lives don't matter .... on our side too.

Sad state.

 

[mikkix]

Who is the responsible for the cost of 107 billion or who is responsible for loosing 107 billion.
Can anyone explain?

 

[Abu Zolfiqar]

challenges remain (as seen in Mardan today) but we've been on the right track.....military operations backed by good intel inputs have yielded results.

stricter border management is still needed, bold leadership and punishing foreign enemies for their misdeeds would go a long way
