So when the indians/liberals mocks our "6 Sep ko buzdil dushman ney raat k...." narrative. Do know the complete context.
Wars are not just an armed clash. These are an extension of national policies in pursuits of Interests.
Kashmir would always be our core national interest

British Colonization of Sub Continent is a very interesting story. An ultimate game of Chess by a Grandmaster.
A Thread.
In mid 1700s East India Coy (EIC) had three small armed contingents, at Bengal, Madrass and Bombay respectively.
South of India had three powers..
1/7
..as Mughal power had declined; Nizam of Hyderabad, Sultanate of Mysore and Marhattas of Pune.
1757. British defeat Nizam first, ensuring that Mysore and Marhattas remained neutral. 1799. Next came Mysore, Nizam was a British puppet by than, but even Marhattas joined..
2/7
..the British against Tipu. 1819. Next came the turn of Marhattas (obviously lol)..🙂
British now controlled South India.
Now comes North. 1833. A treaty with Nawab Bahawalpur (who was threatened of Sikh rise north of Sutlej) ensured British deal with the Sikh power.

Lets redefine our ctr terrorism strat.
Premised on the fact that terrorism has been a very successful business for TTP so far, and State has been unable to do much about it.
How is that..?
TTP has numerous financial resources, ranging from extortion, narco and weapons... 1/7
..smuggling, taxing the locals (donations), not to mention the indirect financial support they get from hostile agencies.
Their extortion cum donation business is so sophisticated that almost all tribals based in gulf pay them money to secure their relatives back home.
2/7
Why TTA (or factions of) support TTP is also partially due to its better financial posn.
Issue.
The State is combating TTP in a direct manner, i.e. through mil ops.
This is creating an envmt conducive to TTP instead of defeating it. As it helps flaming anti state narrative..

Ibne Khuldun on Ulema role in politics.
"Ulema's mind and conscience, while grappling with theological problems and ideological insinuations, assumes a conjectured viewpoint.
Having being subjected to the various stages of this mental debate, their mindset is far removed..
1/5
..from the real life complications that are absolutely necessary for the political issues.
The balance of thought and action required in politics can not be attained by a conjectured thought process.
This is the reason why, Ulema usually makes mistakes in political...
2/5
..matters which are detrimental to the nation's future.
In state-craft and politics; Ulema, Scholars, Philosophers do have their niche though. However imp it is to respect their traditional role, it must restrict to their domain.
