The conventional campaign cannot compel capitulation. Thirteen days of history’s most intensive bombing have demonstrated this. The people’s revolution has not materialised, consistent with a century of evidence. The ethnic fragmentation strategy risks creating a failed state with ballistic missiles and potential nuclear breakout capability. Each escalation has produced more retaliation. This war is not ending. The trap has no exit. And the price of that trap is being paid not by the three parties that built it, but by the rest of the world — and by India most of all.
