Kill and be killed

Pakistan's defeat in the Kargil war did not mean the start of a phase of peace in Jammu and Kashmir. Another putative defeat inflicted on it cannot be as momentous as in 1971. Since 1998, Pakistan has realised that stability at the nuclear level makes sub-conventional conflict safer without the risk of escalation and it can continue to bleed India through Kashmir.
