Hit..a miss..or a changed world?

The Surgical strikes carried out by Indian Armed forces, on terror launch pads along the LOC, in POK has all the ingredients for a quick resolution of the Kashmir issue, and the larger Pakistan Army issue in International fora.

This is the right time for Nobel peace laureate Obama to end the hypocrisy of covert American aid to Pakistan and force their army to cede permanent control of the country to its democratically chosen PM. The PM then can close the Kashmir issue by signing a peace treaty and as a sign of his goodwill withdraw troops from Siachin for starters.

If there ever a need for a Nobel effort - it is now, it is now.

Of course the predictable no-peace effort would be to escalate tensions and watch gleefully as the arms industry make a killing in the killing fields.
