Bilour proposes confederation of Pakistan, India, Bangladesh and Afghanistan!!!

Re: Bilour proposes confederation of Pakistan, India, Bangladesh and Afghanistan!!!

firstly i hope we can discuss this 50 year old war without blood pressure issues. :slight_smile: secondly, you seem to be turning the entire 1965 war into whether or not lahore was occupied by india. on this basis you claim that victory was pakistan’s.

i hope you understand why that is a ridiculous view to take. what about the metrics i mentioned in my post? they are far more relevant to determining victory or loss but you ignored them. pakistan failed to achieve virtually every objective but you are claiming victory by holding india to the standard of occupying lahore? on the other hand, india achieved each of its primary objectives after being provoked into the war.

in your book, preventing india from decisively crushing pakistan has become equal to pakistan winning the war. that is a very bizarre interpretation of what happened.
