Where exactly did Musharraf state the above?d) He knew there were no supply lines to support them but that was not needed because yindoo is baniya and won't fight
e) Kashmir will be free by august
(very logical thought process I must say)
Additionally, as I argued when the stand-off began, it did not serve Pakistan's interests to have the conflict escalate at this point in time.China knows the game very well.
Take some land. Give less back so whoever is watching thinks it's a concession. Rinse and repeat. This is why they call it salami slicing.
Throughout this period, Indians would do well to remember that they could not muster any effective military response, nor even a simple economic boycott. Indeed, Modi could not utter the word "China". China has taken its foot off India's neck to let it breathe. But the formula is safe for next time.
Excellent point. The importance of the lessons learned and the formula proven cannot be underestimated. Both Pakistan and China know when and how to turn various screws at various pressure points.as I argued when the stand-off began, it did not serve Pakistan's interests to have the conflict escalate at this point in time.
Where exactly did Musharraf state the above?
Again, where exactly did Musharraf make the comments you attributed to him in your previous post, quoted below for your easy reference in case you've already forgotten you made them:man you are completely out of touch with things aren't you? And BTW the direct consequence of these acrions was a doctrine called Cold Start. The essence of cold start in simple terms
a) Mushy decided he will occupy heights because he thought we will take too long to retaliate and he will use the time to build international pressure
b) We do take some time to mobile so forward deploy agile units who will strike at first hint of kargil like operation. Fearing those units no other pakistan general will plan another kargil
end result...no new kargil for 20 yers.

So instead of Musharraf it's now General Mahmood.General Mehmood said 'baniye hain ledenge nahin'
so Indian territory is not sacrosanct anyone can take it. If you surrendered this much area without firing a shot what would happen when the better armed and equipped Chinese start firing.
Maybe that’s what happened. The Indians agreed to surrender and the Chinese moved back to their bases to come back again in force. You do know that by vacating all the peaks there is no active way to alert the Indians of an assault. Even the post at finger 4 was cleared by the Indians

Have you heard of the idiom "you can put lipstick on a pig, but it's still a pig?" - that's what you are doing in an effort to push the Chinese propaganda and narrative.
You seem to forget that China claims all the lands in question UPTO a whole entire Indian state belonging to them. So it's China who has folded away like a cheap suit. All that infrastructure they built, all those fantastical drills they performed...poof - gone
