Our Intelligence agencies have matured and far surpassed what your Raw was capable of in 71'. If Pakistan was a walk in the park for India, which it is not, then Indian hegemony would have already dominated the sub continent. The fact of the matter is your nation's promised surgical strike threats were hollow.
So answer me Joe. Why were those so called surgical strikes not carried out?
What was the reason?
Were your guys sitting in their HQ's twiddling their thumbs?
May I take it that this is a clever retort? I ask because the cleverness is not immediately apparent.
You seem to be in love with the sterling capabilities of your intelligence agencies. If the excellence of intelligence agencies won wars, the Soviets would never have left Afghanistan; the Americans would not have left Vietnam with people clinging to their helicopter skids. Your agencies being mature is a laugh; all they have done so far is to maim your own country, some observers, Pakistani included, think beyond repair. Not very mature, to piss in the soup that you have to drink.
Nobody sensible ever said that Pakistan was a walk in the park (you obviously have a thing going about parks). For one thing, Indians don't sit around the whole day thinking about walking into Pakistan. Indians sit around the whole day making sure that the Pakistanis don't come here for a walk in the park. Other than your prime operative Sorkh Razeel, that is. And equally, if you have any sense for what is going on in India, and has gone on for decades, Indians do not strive for hegemony in south Asia, other than Indians on PDF, who are, present company not excepted, brain damaged by being here anyway. This is every Pakistani fanboy's way of justifying their existence, and that of their military, by imagining imaginary dangers from which they
have been saved. The real-life situations were such obvious downers.
Ah, the surgical strikes. They didn't take place because there was no way for them to take place, realistically. When the Indian military comes up against a contradiction between doing something flashy and stupid, and something less demonstrative but mature, they choose the second. It would do you a lot of good if your military did the same, just once, just by mistake, instead of consistently doing the other. So our guys spend a lot of their time in their HQs twiddling their thumbs. Look at what that gets us:
No sending out a crowd of rapists and looters to 'liberate' a country, or to rape and pillage their way through their co-religionists;
No cloak and daggers games going sour, leading to a salvaging attack, which nearly led to loss of a principal city;
No butchery of a main province, leading to it revolting and freeing itself;
No attempts at taking over disputed territories in so ham-handed a manner that orders for snowshoes were placed with the same suppliers who were supplying the declared 'enemy';
No weeks of denial of a military misadventure, followed by an abject climb-down and a mercy mission to POTUS;
Isn't that enough stupidity to last a country its lifetime? Are you surprised that some foreign observers (not Indians) think that this amount of stupidity means that a country
has lasted its lifetime?
