Jokes and Pak bashing aside - what do the forum members feel about the current Pak Situation.
So far our establishment was content giving the Paks a long rope to hang themselves as they stole the money that they borrowed on commercial loans.
What I am more interested in following is the slow and steady stirring of discontent in Sindh, Baloch and PoK regions.
Over the last few months, a lot of videos have shown up on SM - Jaise Bana Bangladesh, Ab banega Sindhudesh, Kargil skardu khol do tute riste jod do etc.
I find it hard to believe these movements while organic do not have some degree of external sympathy. If this can be sustained for a fair duration the balkanization of Pak might just be possible. That would be a best reply to Op Tupac
More than supporting the malcontents there , I'd rather we start focusing on the security implications & impact a slowly disintegrating Paxtan would have on India. Already we're seeing record hauls of drugs being intercepted in the high seas off Indian coastline all the way from Gujarat to TN , none of which have been reported by MSM or even analysed by them ( it's only the SM with channels having Ltd subscriptions & which usually conform to the RW ideology & disseminate such information who've been covering these issues from time to time.
The value of these high sea drug bursts are alarming to say the least running into thousands of crores per haul. Their reach even more so ranging from Muslim smugglers in SL with bases of operations in Malaysia , Maldives , UAE , India & obviously SL with political patronage received from the highest levels in case of the latter sitting in jails in India masterminding the entire operation.
This also connects the smuggling network to Islamic terrorism outfits like the PFI & other smaller outfits in TN & Kerala one of which was responsible for the attempted suicide blast of a temple in Coimbatore last Diwali ( the sole perpetrator died in the vicinity of them temple when the vehicle he was driving carrying the bomb went of prematurely with the ruling DMK whitewashing the incident claiming it was a van full of fertilizers . This is the kind of ruling classes we have. ) .
These aren't your ordinary narcotic smugglers however big time they're but these signify involvement of state actors. Long before the Taliban seized power in Afghanistan they held de facto power in a number of provinces especially in the south & east of Afghanistan.
Helmand which even in the past was some sort of narcotics capital in Afghanistan was long controlled by the Taliban whose group had relations with the Iran essentially the IRGC thru whom they used to traffic those narcotics to raise funds for their jihad .
Those networks have become more entrenched now & given the state of the collapsing economy in Paxtan , you can expect much more involvement by the PA & ISI into such activities . Besides these activities neatly dovetail into their existing plans for raising funds thru such endeavours for jihad & other separatist activities in India especially in Kashmir & Punjab. You are already seeing drone shipments across the IB in Punjab carrying limited quantities of arms , ammo narcotics to sustain such operations & at times currency as well .
Going ahead we'd need to strengthen our borders , border guarding mechanisms & protocols (meaning more fencing where there's existing ones & fencing where there's none from Punjab south right upto Rann of Kutch which can't be fenced for obvious reasons ) , border guards organisations viz BSF , ICG , etc. This also means ensuring Marine Police by coastal states upto 3 kms from the shores , a decision which was agreed upon but very poorly implemented post 26/11 .
Enact harsher laws for smuggling narcotics viz capital punishment & if that's too harsh for bleeding heart liberals then at least do so where cases of narco terrorism have been proved.
