We have paid enough in terms of loss of lives, property and esteem at the hands of Pak and its friends including the US and China. 1971 was the only resolute answer to the past actions to Pak. We are reactive and seldom driven by strategic thinking and remedial. Modi has tried and failed in his soft and so to say hard approach e.g., unscheduled handshake with the civilian outfit of the Pak Troika and the said Surgical Strike. We expect little meaningful in effect on one and other grounds in the short run. Nothing was misplace in 'Loud thinking' such as the one depicted in the write up.Our forst, and foremost task was to put our house in order and have one studied voice and action.
Good article.Important point missing is constant effort being made by groups to attack the army and demoralise them ,foisting cases against brave soldiers,supporting stone throwing activity criticising army for any kind ofresponce ,underplaying loss of life and grave injury to soldiers.No country tolerates attack on the Army as these groups are propagating.We are not acting like China,Russia to tackle terrorists nor like USA,Israel,France who have succeeded in minimising terrorist attacks and loss of life.
