What i am saying is with my real time knowledge of sitution.
We havn't to date never ever had an IBO which has brought an organization on her knees.
Mostly facilitators are killed or nabbed,who are replaceable like a toliet paper.We have'nt secured a big hit om there higher command,financial or logastics network.
There finance is secured along with logastics.Do whatever you want until enemy has a secure area to replenish itself forget about defeating it,we are going to hit the third decade.
If IBO's didn't bring organisations to their knees then I wonder what has been happening regarding clean up in Karachi and elsewhere.
Every nabbed facilitator gives lead to a network. You do know that yadav was monitored for 2-3 years. Hosh and josh ka yahan pata chalta hay. He could have been shot instantly in first few days of monitoring, end of story.
If the big hits haven't been struck then how come the devastating incidents have come down, although I agree that this one incident is massive due to loss of life. Nawab Raisani was informed what's coming his way, his security should have been alert. His son was also died in a tragic incident few years ago. He was well aware that he is on hit list.
There are other politicians and government officers who know they are being or will be targeted. Their own security should be alert. All it takes it one slip.
Intel agencies are not idle. They do report on transmissions, monitor agents, report dangers etc. FATA has been secured, which was thought to be impossible at one time. Baluchistan may take a few years.
You can blame the COAS, Government, intel agencies, security set up but bear in mind that if you are in Pakistan and breathing freely, it's because of these entities.
Pakistan is not India that in order to satisfy you and others here, a stage drama act of surgical strike will happen and everyone will be happy. And if you and others think that top brass doesn't care what happens in Pakistan or to Pakistanis, I wouldn't agree with you and others.
If you want an offensive on external forces sitting in Afghanistan or India or elsewhere, so do I. Some ops are possible, some are not. That's the reality.
