KNOW THY ENEMY AS NOT THYSELF

KNOW THY ENEMY AS NOT THYSELF

The number of attacks Pakistan has carried out on Indian soil till date proves that we have failed in understanding the nature of the enemy. It is futile to ever expect Pakistan to be friendly with India or to even be on some sort of compatible terms where peaceful coexistence is possible. It has not happened till date and it is doubtful if it will ever happen.

Remember, Pakistan was historically a part of India and was by violence and betrayal carved out of her. Its birth was in treachery and its life cannot be expected to be any better in so far as its relations with India are concerned. It will ever fear its future annexation by India or obliteration at its hands and will never spare itself of resorting to all sorts of dastardly designs to undermine its mighty neighbour.

There cannot be any hope of peace ever with a country that was born out of India and then went on to wage four wars against her and countless other proxy wars in terms of terrorist activity. The only way to deal with Pakistan is to comprehend its nature and act accordingly. India should ever be vigilant, strengthen its armed forces, eliminate corruption, educate the entire nation and cut down on all cultural and sporting ties with this noxious neighbour which till 13 August, 1947 was a province that rightfully belonged to her.

Partition has been a disaster but such are the dynamics of historical evolution that this state did get created out of it as if only to foment trouble across the world which either its utter ruin or regeneration can alter. India, meanwhile, ought to be watchful and wary of this poisonous conglomeration of provinces dubbed Pakistan that, to my understanding, will soon spell its own doom and be fragmented into four.

Jai Hind!
