I have discussed this at length here multiple times with various posters but yet no one is able to tell me how did Pakistan won the war. Every other day someone makes this statement but dont tell us how.
Even if we assume, Pakistan down 7 Indian jets, which we all know is not true but lets assume it to be the case for this discussion, that also mean nothing. In any war, soldiers will die and planes will go down. These are by products and perks of war. The winner is someone who achieves the ultimate goal for which the war was fought.
Why the war was fought? It was because terrorists hiding inside Pakistan killed innocent tourists and holiday makers in Pahalgam.
What was the objective of the war? To eliminate those terrorists and their camps as much as possible.
India achieved that goal by Operation Sindoor on 7th May by sending jets deep inside mainland Pakistan and eliminate multiple terrorists. The war was over then as far as India is concerned.
From there on, all India has done is reciprocating to Pak's aggression. Ofcourse India lost jets in the process but did fair bit of damage inside Pakistan as well like destroying 11 airbases including Nur Khan. Pak also hit India with drones due to which IPL was called off etc.
However, all of these are skirmishes. You hit me and I hit you stuff. When Pakistan actually announced Operation Bunyan Marsoos, Trump declared ceasefire within 4 hours...meaning that operation never meterialized unlike Op Sindoor. Now we all may have different perspectives on who called ceasefire and why but no one knows for sure. Trump says he has done it even though until 8May JD Vance said US will not intervene, Ishaq Dar says he asked Prince Faisal to speak with S.Jaishankar and tell them if they stop we stop, Indian National Congress and our internal traitors says Modi surrendered. So no one knows for sure.
Only thing that we do know is, India has no reason to not accept the ceasefire as it has already won the war on 7th May. If Pakistan indeed downed 7 Indian jets, why did they accept cease fire just 4 hours after launching Op Bunyan Marsoos? They should have go ahead and send jets in Delhi, if they were so daring.
So pls tell me, or the learned posters here, where in this war Pakistan won and how? Expecting a genuine response without any trolling or bias.
