^^yeah same lies as ur millitary has been telling u since 1947 coz they were on the war front on all the occasions.The same lie was told by ur highly trained commando in 1999 that there was no pak soldier in kargil and now he accepts in his book that pakl soldiers were there on kargil heights.
Boss ur army is just a propaganda machine like the germans had in WW-2 and the false propaganda which u ppl readily accepts.The ppl who lives in dream always runs away from reality.Atleast IA dont churn out propaganda.
for ur information 1965 war started way back in march on rann of kutch issue.
Many pakistani people say that we won on ground but lost on negotiating table.this sort of foolish remarks i never heard.if pak army was winning the war and was in advantageous position on ground then how can u lose on negotiating table(i m amazed):)
The major theater of war is the broad Punjab plain, which stretches flat from horizon to horizon. It is lushly green, dotted with clumps of trees, laced by canals. The days are swelteringly hot, and dust clouds shimmer in the glaring sun. It is Rudyard Kipling country, immortalized in such books as Kim and Indian Tales.
And the soldiers on both sides are very like the men Kipling so deeply revered. The officers are British-trained, and many are graduates of Sandhurst. They have the British manner, right down to clipped accents, mustaches and swagger sticks. The enlisted men are also right out of Kipling’s pages—sturdy Jats and turbaned Sikhs, rawboned Pathans and sinewy Sindhis, volunteers all, whose regimental flags are inscribed with battle names ranging from Ypres and Gallipoli to El Alamein and Monte Cassino and Rangoon.
Since its army is much the larger (867,000 men to 253,000), India went on the attack in five widely separated sectors of the Punjab front—three columns aimed at encircling Lahore, Pakistan’s second largest city, one thrust at Sialkot, and the last struck at Karachi via the town of Gadra. The Indians hoped to force the dispersion of the smaller but better-trained and -armed Pakistani forces and then chop them up piecemeal.
The strategy worked, at least partially. A Pakistani armored force that had driven 30 miles into Kashmir with the object of seizing Jammu city, and thus cutting off more than 100,000 Indian troops in Kashmir, slowed down before reaching its goal and detached tanks to defend Sialkot.
In the air, it was much the same story—Indian quantity and Pakistan quality. Indian pilots are flying a variety of fighters, from French Mystères and British Vampires to Russian MIG-21s and Indian-built Gnats. The Pakistanis have U.S. supersonic jets, which seem to have made a spectacular number of kills—Pakistani Air Vice Marshal Nur Khan claims that 108 Indian planes have been shot down. If true, that amounts to a fifth of the Indian air force.
At week’s end, both armies were digging in along the Punjab plain, their battalions stretching 800 miles, from the Kashmir border to the Rann of Kutch on the Arabian Sea. New Delhi reported “very fierce fighting” around Lahore and Sialkot and said its tank forces had killed two Pakistani generals, but neither side was claiming major advances and the battle line appeared to be temporarily stable.
…
Pakistan didn’t have any troops [no garrisons] in sindh [from karachi, the next troop concentration was in multan]. Pakistan’s underbelly is sindh which is vital because of karachi. I think major heavy battles would be fought here as unlike Punjab [PA lost 100 tanks to sikhs in a stupid blitzkrieg assault?? ], the deserts of sindh allow heavy battle tanks and pakistan doesn’t have many natural / artificial barriers like in Punjab to stop an all-out indian assault.
Read independent sources - they all state Pak Army initiated the war, was slowly losing ground, and that IA was getting the better of Pakistan overall.
1947, 1965, 1971, 1999. Kashmir is still divided as it was 60 odd years ago.
Atleast, The PA has stopped claiming that one PA soldier is equal to 10 IA soldiers. Mush has stopped claiming '800 freedom fighters' in Kargil holding of the entire IA. Some Pakistani's have started accepting that the brutal crackdown on East Pakistan was a blunder & not fulfilling the election results ultimately lead to independence.
Unfortunately, some pakistani's minds have been so ingrained with lies, that they cannot see the truth even if it stares them in the face.
So Rann of Kutch was started by Pakistan???
I thought it was india or mutual and Pakistan trounced india which ended up with PA designing Op Gibraltor!
