You did not read the text. I said why did Indian then cross the international border with all this support from the US? It still crossed the border. Attacked Pakistan and invaded the territory. Nixon’s actions helped in no way when we were being attacked and my people being killed.
Back up yur claims with sources. Those figures are incorrect. Secondly victory on the battlefield as per the rules of engagemet is per the last man standing or who holds the most ground. Signalling a retreat which is what the Russians defacto did is a loss. Its not based on numbers, its based on who controls Afghanistan and the Afghans did. That is a victory for them.
No you simply lack basic knowledge regarding operations in a theater of war. In modern warfare one has the standard military battle and then prepares for the guerrilla war that is to follow. The americans should have remembered that considering the failure in Vietnam. You don’t win peace. Typical American government bull****. Peace is arrived as a mutually agreed settlement between the two or more warring factions. Do you see that happening in Iraq? No.
As for Iraq being more stable than Pakistan, I am sorry, in Pakistan we don’t have the insurgents running a majority of the towns and cities. Hell the Americans don’t even control Baghdad. They only control the Green zone.
