| #1 Notwithstanding the Pak agiprop, this was bad for Pakistan in several ways, - the 4000 fatalities in the Pak army (as noted above) which were concentrated in a few divisions - the international condemnation of Pakistan - the fact that captured documents and Pak military statements showed the early Pak govt statements were lies - the Pak economy took a hit, severak divisions of the Pak army were demoralized - Pak politicos declared the Govt's actions to be a disgrace - Clinton and then Pres Sharif signed a statement, essentially saying that Pakistan would now respect the demarcation line which of course implies that Pakistan hadn't done so. |
