You can't fight without losses. The assumption that you could destroy the PAF without more losses and risking unprecedented escalation is weird. People talk of attacking Karachi, where do you think the retaliation will be? Mumbai, Reliance refinery...Mundra port...If you think a couple of Rafales are expensive , wait till you see serious economic losses.
Public opinion is fickle. One day, they are blaming Modi for not attacking more and the next day, they will be blaming Modi for the consequences of attacking more....
We all want more to be done but must learn to live with the doable.
Don't accept this outcome, I know nothing is in our hands but had we accepted the same after balakot ,
Pm would not have even retaliated probably.
More can be done , heck it could have been done .
This amnesia in our establishement is mind boggling regarding them
Any honourable enemy would have accepted their losses, but pakis need to be defeated thoroughly like 1971 , you don't fight them in conventional manner
They have spun thier claim of our jets being downed , with चीन help and the statement given by cds today to victory over us .
They have made equal equal again.
Their imaginary claim of jets being shot down is literally dominant over the hard proof of damages we have caused and shown to the world.
When you attack them, attack everything there, heck target the militray first, terrorists are part of thier military, always have been.
Even after pahalgam we differentiated, between the two is deplorable.
Also the damage caused to their base was not great either,which wider world will remember, nor was navy used in offensive role.
We hyperventilate when anybody hyphenates us with pakis , yet we do and act in such a manner as to warrant such hyphenation.
Sorry , but that's the truth.
Air to air combat is glorious ,when decades have passed people will not remember the hangers we laid to waste , rather they will remember the paki claim of aerial victory.
