Are you on the front lines? Can you give me the names of all the 700 militants killed?
I did NOT say anything about the accuracy of the government figures. You on the other hand said:
*The ground reality is much different people. Unless you're there on the front lines, you really dont know anything. *
If one knows nothing then one also doesnt know that the figures are definitely wrong and that the ground reality is infact 'much different'.

Do you really thing Pakistan will succeed in destroying something 30 other nations have failed at?

I believe that Pakistan could have eliminated these two bit thugs much sooner, and only let this fester because of geo-political gamesmanship/douchbaggery. I also believe that if these two bit thugs survive or find some other corner to hide amongst civilians and launch cowardly attacks on easy targets, it will only be because the state lets them for their own purposes. Not some ridiculous myth of indominatibility.
