@ehsan

I was there just like you in fact much closer to the action than you were, so stop twisting facts and spreading lies. There was no internet or satellite TV in those days so the only info you got was from the national radio stations. Both India and Pakistan were doing propaganda to boost their countryman’s morale. Nothing wrong in that. Talking about lies the biggest lie came on the first day of the war when India declared to the whole world that they had captured Lahore and their generals were having tea in Lahore Gymkhana. Hasratein hee reh gaye becahron kee. Bottom line an enemy ten times bigger than Pak at the end was unable to break through Pak’s defenses and make any significant headway and that is the biggest sore for army hater and anti Punjabi like you. Regardless of what you say you cannot twist facts just because you were there.

I am not talking about the how Pakistan defended Indian reaction?? I am talking about who started the war, what was the purpose and what were the consequences?? Was it worth to start that war??? Historical facts have always been distorted to favor one faction of people. To me Ayub Khan rigged the elections of 1964 when Fatima Jinah emerged as a major opponent to Ayub Khan. If you were there as you claim you will not deny this. To regain his popularity and continuing his tyranny, Ayub Khan started proxy war with India just to divert the minds of people. I am not anti Punjabi but I am concerned with Punjabis supporting this corrupt and most incompetent army at the cost of country.
