CHRISTIE Fair’s analysis, Head of security studies of George Town university, her views are apparently are fixed and rigid accusing Pakistan.
According to her, Mr Modi’s ‘s action against Pakistan was justified, yet admitted he failed in his efforts to damage, which he claims, against Pakistan ironically ignoring who is behind Phalagam.
On May 10th, 2025 Pakistan turned the tables and proved it superiority in all three fronts, land, air and sea.
Pakistan wrote a new chapter in the concept of war.
Capable to fight a conventional war employing most modern technology articulating three dimensions radars to satellites, denying India’s nuclear bluff.
Since 1993 India raised the boogie of terrorism when Sikh movement was on its peak.
Ever since Modi government came into power, 11 years ago, the boogie of terrorism was given a new meaning.
Terrorism and Islamophobia were linked to isolate Muslims.
Under Hindutva, Indian society is in regression (Ajay Shukla).
While India practice state terrorism, it has become a tool in the hands of the Indian diplomats.
An excuse to cut off relations between India and Pakistan citing terrorism and Islamophobia, and also propagate at the same time at the international level blaming Pakistan as the sponsor of the terrorism.
whereas India itself is the greatest state terrorism sponsor, not only against Pakistan but also against its own minorities within India, and abroad.
India always got away as victim, post 9/11 when war on terrorism was declared.
In a grand geo strategic manoeuvre, to check China and Russia, to have foothold in Afghanistan, US came with new slogan, terrorism.
If a terrorist is harboured whole population was declared punishable.
Thus, Afghanistan is rendered destroyed, innocent civilians killed in millions and half the population turned refugees.
Iraq was destroyed on the false accusations of weapons of mass destruction and later in the name of Arab Spring.
Muslim countries were turned into zombies.
Arab leaders, fearing security of their regimes, made to bow before the super power, greater Is-rael plan then unveiled.
Major beneficiary is India, a pivot, located in between Asia and ME, in the US grand geo strategic plan to contain China and stop Russia China alliance.
NATO, from 12 members is expanded to 32 members to encircle Russia.
Proxy war of Ukraine was prompted forcing Russia to react.
Plan was, to weaken Russia militarily and economically.
China has to be contained too, thus Indo Pacific plan to strangulate China in the seas.
India was inducted in Quad.
But Pakistan remained a stumbling block.
The antiterrorism slogan raised India got a boost due Indian good diplomacy.
West and Americans both were buyer of this policy of India blaming Pakistan.
FATF and other international institutions were coaxed.
Anti Pakistan policy helped Mr Modi within the domestic politics.
In the last two elections, his electoral victory was a due to this tactic to project Pakistan’s threat.
To Indian public he was Godlike figure.
He portrayed himself Uttar, a mythological character, in last thousand years.
It is interesting to note that he belongs to Gujarat where he was accused of killing of the Muslims in thousands and denied Visa by the Americans on the score.
It was only on becoming the Prime Minister this restriction was lifted.
The belligerent policy of India kept both India and Pakistan not only in the state of war but also denied the benefit of the trade and commerce enjoyed by other regions like ASEAN and European Union.
Had there been an iota of rationality, the path of friend-ship and mutual respect would have earned much more laurels to Indian leaders than the state of hate Pakistan hysteria created by them.
World’s balance of power has shifted in the last decade.
Rise of global South vs US and the west has drawn new lines of influence among big powers.
The use of terrorism as a proxy war in many regions of the world either is dead or dying.
In Europe war between Ukraine and Russia and, in Gaza, the war is more of a conventional nature and not terrorism proxies.
Regretfully Indian leadership has not learnt any lesson from the changing strategic milieu globally as well as regionally.
Till last week mini war between India and Pakistan, shattered the Indian dream, militarily, politically and diplomatically.
Indian dream to be permanent member of UN SC is for time to come stand vanished.
New balance of power has got created particularly subcontinent and globally in general.
Use of the word “terrorism ”by India has lost to the world at large.
The Indian myth to fight conventional war against Pakistan under the shadow of nuclear threat has also been put to rest due forceful response of Pak armed forces, employing high-tech methodology not only in the air but also in the ground warfare.
The ceasefire arranged by US has saved India, though being contested by Indians.
When Modi announce it is a pause.
It is nothing but preparations for the next round with full Israel’s backing in communication technology and Air Defence.
In the back, support of US can not be ruled out as greater agenda is in tact.
The grand strategic design of US to contain China on ground and in seas will not be altered.
Strategy, diplomacy and economic war will continue.
Israel too will reassess Pakistan’s capabilities and support India to counter Pakistan.
Further to counter China, India will be armed militarily and tacitly supported diplomatically by US and Israel including some western countries.
The pressure on Pakistan will increase from the US and the west, diplomatically and economically.
The subversion and sabotage in Pakistan will increase, new elements may be added by CIA.
In this milieu Afghanistan become important for India.
Neo normal is a pause, a new offensive from India in six to twelve months is possible.
Blockage of water will become raison d’etre, there will be another false flag.
Any such incident, will be act of war, now a stated policy of Modi.
Unfortunately, there is no limit to Indian madness to destroy the peace of sub continent.
Pakistan needs to be ready in all respects.
