Now do a small gedanken experiment with me. Imagine India violated TSP sovereignty and knocked off a few TFTA TSPA troops. Do you think TSP would have not responded by now? Just estimate if you can, the sequence of events that would have taken place,
CRamS all this has already happened, and you only need to look back without trying to prove that US dik is bigger to see exactly how history has played out. I am not trying to prove you wrong or even say India dik bigger that Sri Sri Sri USA. No gedanken required. Just memory of recorded events.
The last time Indians killed Paki troops in numbers was 1999, which Pakistan denied. They responded by getting the army out of the line of fire and conducting a successful decade of "asymmetric war" against India in the form of terrorism. Sometime in the middle of all this - while India was busy trying to figure out what it was coming face to face with, America faced an incident on 9-11-2001 which was blamed on Afghanistan .
The USA befriended Pakistan, pulled them close, apologised for having "abandoned them" in the 1990s and coopted them in the American "War on terror"
The American "war on terror" in Afghanistan was being fought with Pakistani "help and cooperation" in parallel to but separate from Indias' own war on terror that involved putting up a fence to stop Pakis entereing Kashmir while discovering that the fence was not good enough and that internal terrorism in India was the next step in Paki escalation. This was a time when some people on BRF were advising that India should fight terror like America was fighting terror. For Indians on BRF this was difficult to comprehend. To Indians it appeared like India was facing terror from Pakistan, but America was fighting a war in Afghanistan and arming and bribing Pakistan. To Indians on BRF with no split allegiance to America, the American way of fighting war on terror did not make sense because it involved mollycoddling Pakistan.
As Indians watched the US-Pakistan love fest with dismay, it appeared that the American war on terror was grinding to a halt. And that is exactly what happened. it was Pakistan that was benefiting and the US was not winning. (Not winning is a polite way of saying "losing") . Then it turned out that American troops were being killed by Pakistan forces right from 2004. This was being denied by America. The denials ended only after black man Uncle Tom Obama became President. Ironic that it took a kaalu to do that.
The US's war on terror went up shit creek because the US chose to navigate up shit creek with a bunch of foolish misinformed Americans whites (who had eaten Paki salt) advising "The Prez" while a whole lot of rah rah America folks of various nationalities talked as if "sending in the marines" was the best thing that happened after Columbus and Apple pie. Only the marines were being sent up shit creek with Pakistan as the boat.
Please...Indians are dumb as you have often implied. But not that dumb.
