Are you then admitting that India has the will to be aggressive against Pakistan?
Isn't that the premise of the thread?
Nope. Donot confuse the issue. India has the will to be aggressive against the deep state of Pakistan. India will do what it takes to make sure the stranglehold that this deep state has on Pakistan gets released.
This can only be done by 2 ways simultaneously:
1. Incrementally chipping away at their powers - ie supporting the natural democratic evolution in Pakistan, something being done right now. The only way to do is is make sure that there is
no threat from India. Nothing unites Pakistani's of all hue and colour behind their deep state like a threat(real or percieved) from India. Something used rather frequently by the deep state to keep in control of Pakistan.
This is being done. Pakistani's are being made to understand that we have no intentions or designs against any peice of territory lying in what is
currently being held by Pakistan. This is currently becoming effective. More and more people in Pakistan are arguing that and knowing the correct history, that we have not attacked Pakistan, not attempted to take over any land held by Pakistan after 1971. We are content with what we call India but will not tolerate any attempt to change it.
Essentially this is about providing space to your political and social process to sort itself out and assert itself against the deep state.
This is being used by your polity to thumb at the PA and the political process is initself chipping away at what was once a very exclusive domain of the deep state. These are the beginnings of change in Pakistan in this sphere. The deep state will lose. The military will eventually have to content itself with the powers given and limited by the constitution only, as is the practice in every other modern democratic state.
2. Making the deep state understand that the good old days of Pakistan matching India in every sphere including intelligence is long gone. We are no longer equal. We are much more capable now, much further ahead than them. And so they will be punished for taking actions against India - by making sure what they desire doesnt come to fruition among other things. Making our military conventionally so strong that their deep state understands that a conventional war will not last beyond 3 days.
This also falls partially in the category of psy-ops.
This is also effective - today the PA also has an increasing number of people who realize that they cannot defeat India or cannot take any territory from India using any means. So having confrontationist attitude with India is bad for them. This will and is making the PA to allow substantial changes in Pakistan's foreign policy being done by the politicians. They have rather grudgingly allowed trade.
So yes, if you call this being aggressive, India is aggressive, however not against the Pakistani people or its polity, but against a deep state.
And Money is fuelling all of this. If Pakistani economy stays in the same state and we progress, then in about a decade more, things will be radically different. We need another decade of progress over Pakistan to be truly effective.
