Operation Zarb E Azb Analysis
This global war on terror has eventually changed the traditional concept of warfare’s tactics to counter the perceived threat and demolished its roots. Operation Zarb e Azb (sharp & cutting strike) is also an episode of anecdote of other military operations, a ‘war of survival’ to eliminate all kinds of terrorists from Pakistani Soul, with backup support by entire nation. It has been conducting North Waziristan (NW) near border of Afghanistan's Khost and Paktika provinces, which has become the ‘safe havens’ for dozens of militant outfits.
The raison d'être Opertaion Zarb e Azb was when peace talks between Government of Pakistan and Tehreek e Taliban Pakistan (TTP) flopped after an armed attack on Jinnah international Airport Karachi, which

This level describes the roles of management of economy, diplomatic and military solutions to accomplish the final objectives. In this operation, final objectives are to remove terrorism from Pakistan and restrain its land from covert proxy wars. Pakistan lost 19,633 civilian and 5,966 security personnel since beginning of war on terror. These are the enormous sacrifices from any country who engaged in any military venture. The irony is that besides colossal assistance by Pakistan and its security forces, an ungrateful tone always arises from Afghanistan’s side either from Afghan officials or US’ alliances. This ongoing operation not only eliminating terrorists from Pakistan, but also contain the precarious situation that would craft after US-NATO forces’ with-drawl from Afghanistan. As Afghanistan security forces not able to control the cross border flow of …show more content…
After fall of Taliban’s government, India has been emerging up “strategic ally” of Afghanistan. India has been invested massive endeavors from political to economic and security sectors. At least $ 1.5 billion aid has been promised by India, which has made it 6th largest donor to Afghanistan. They built strategic Zaranj-Delaram highway, a direct connection from Afghanistan to Iranian port Chabhar, thus diminishing the dependency on the Karachi port. Beside economic cooperation, India has established more than 100 consulates and information centers near Pakistani borders, especially Miran Shah with the support of Afghan security forces. It is the ‘perception’ that Indian intelligence operatives are briskly working along border side and supporting TTP to create havoc in Pakistan. During search operation, Pakistan forces have found weapons, explosives made by India along with anti-Pakistan literature. However, Islamabad apprehensions are valid to avoid another “offensive theater from eastern front”; it should be eliminated at the beginning. Conversely, India never wants with-drawl of US-NATO forces from Afghanistan; to sustain pressure on Pakistan from both eastern and western borders, though; no significant response by Indian side has been registered in the support of Zarb e

    In his book, 7 Deadly Scenerios, Andrew Krepinevich, explores a wide range of non-conventional sources of threat to United States security. Of these, threats he dedicates a chapter to Pakistan’s political and socioeconomic failures. Pakistan, reeling from the assassination of its president on Feb. 24, 2013, faced a week economy, strained relations with India, sectarian conflict, and a fragile democracy. As the government slowly lost its credibility and control on its people, the Loyalist army leaders attempted to impose control and order per their orders. This time they faced a problem – “they had to contend with Islamist elements within the armed forces, led by a clique of young colonels and a few junior generals, who command perhaps a third…

    These acts of violence and state of destruction lead to a very rapid mobilization of society, political structures, economic processes, and social classes. While in control the Taliban created a transit treaty between Pakistan and Afghanistan. This treaty established an illegal smuggling network. This illegal network created an artificial system that could never establish a stable national economy “the poor economic condition of the country and the unstable economic condition would cause further political instability in the country, and the Islamic Emirate may never have the chance to become a normal and functional administration” (History of terroism Nojumi…

    President Trump and Pakistan have exchanged argumentative and accusatory rhetoric over the security problems caused by terrorists and Taliban traveling back and forth from Pakistan and Afghanistan. Washington recently cut off 900 million of military aid to Pakistan until they show signs of fighting the Afghan Taliban and Haqqani militant groups in Pakistan (Landay, 2018). The Pakistani Defense committee claims to be a scapegoat for the U.S. failures in Afghanistan. Meanwhile, Washington recently requested India to step up their support by providing military assistance in Afghanistan and India agreed. Strategic critics will argue that increased Indian involvement in the form of hard military power in Afghanistan will exacerbate Pakistani fears of being strategically surrounded by India and potentially lead to Pakistan-India proxy wars in Afghanistan (Paliwal,…

    The ‘analysis’ about the ‘wiping out’ of al Qaeda and the sharp diminution in its ability to target America and Europe is based on the number of al Qaeda terrorists killed by the drones inside Pakistan. As if to confirm this, a meeting took place between an al Qaeda leader and Mullah Umar in the presence of other commanders in which the al Qaeda representative was quoted as appealing for help for more attacks by allies in Pakistan. Pakistan’s wrath against the CIA after the Raymond Davis case in Lahore early 2011 had brought the US-Pakistan quarrel to a boiling point. Since then, and since the May 2 attack that killed Osama bin Laden, the relationship has been hurtling downhill, ending in Pakistan’s decision not to attend the Bonn conference on Afghanistan. This would then lead to many arguing that with this all as a backdrop, how Pakistan could possibly be cooperating with the US on the drone…
