Replugging some thoughts, in light of the recent engagement in the Valley where we lost five special forces men in a freak engagement.
2
Ever since the humiliation of 1971, further reinforced by 1999, Pak Army is well aware they stand no chance in a face to face war with the Indian Army, chest thumping and bombastic statements notwithstanding.

Hence the other option - the uniformed jihadis hiding behind their non uniformed brethren and bleeding by a 1000 cuts - first by the Punjab insurgency and later on with the Kashmir siyapa.
4
Thank God for the uniformed men of this Nation that the Punjab issue has been successfully resolved (recent Paki attempts at reviving it nothwithstanding) and the Kashmir insurgency has been prevented from spiralling out of control.

However, in doing so, our forces have been paying a huge price by the way of their own blood, with the army itself losing on an average 100-150 men every year, as per figures released every year on Army Day. JKP/CRPF etc too suffer huge losses each year.
6
In the process, they do extract much more in way of blood from the scum that the uniformed jihadis of the Paki Army push in relentlessly.
However, IMO this is a strategy for stalemate, wherein we are only treating the symptoms instead of the root cause.
7
We are merely dispatching the puppets instead of the puppet masters in Khaki that sit comfortably across the LoC.
8
The locus of what is wrong in the Valley lies not within the Valley, but in a far away Pakistani town called Rawalpindi, that houses the terror central targeting India.
9
The Khaki clad jihadis operating out of Rawalpindi have a strong sense of self preservation, having amply displayed it in 1971, Kargil and even Parakram when a rattled Musharraf committed to not using Pakistani territory for terror attacks on India.
10
With this insincere statement, the Brown Panted ones once again saved their skin, and outsourced the fighting to their pet terror organizations that have no dearth of cannon fodder in their country.
Kaluchak attack on wives & kids of soldiers happened barely a few months later
11
Things will NOT change unless and until the Pak Army feels the consequences.
And by Pak Army, I don't allude to the grunts manning the posts across the line of control.
12
These uniformed ones too are expendable for the senior echelons of the Brown Panted fauj, amply demonstrated by their abandonment during the Kargil war and subsequent refusal to even accept the mortal remains of their own soldiers and young officers.
13
Till such time the middle and senior level hierarchy of the Brown Panted Ones personally feel the pain of consequences for their terror franchises, nothing will change.
14
How might it be done, is for the powers that be to decide - whether by another overt military slap, this time going even beyond the previous surgical strikes, or alternatively, through covert actions of our own.
15/15
But either which way, the Khaki clad jihadis that pull the terror strings feel the brunt, we may keep killing a Burhan Wani every day, this mess will not get sorted out.
In the end, I will just leave this link here for those who still have doubts.
