“India did really well in that war after getting its butt handed to it by Pakistan the first time around.”

Nope, that never happened either. Pakistan had a slight edge in the air warfare but it still got it's ass whooped on the ground.....but nothing like 1971. Pakistan army was 700,000 strong and it took only 18 days for them to collapse against India.

“I’m also glad to hear that I’m wrong about Bangladesh. Its nice when something like that works out.”

As poor as Bangladesh is, its still not a terrorist infested nest or a WMD producing shit-hole. Any Bangladeshi Muslim will tell you how grateful they are to India and how the separation from Pakistan was the best thing that ever happened to them.

the reason for Pakistan’s collapse are many but one is glaringly apparent — arrogance. For a long time they believe that they (the Pakist) were a tough, martial race and they could easily defeat the “weak hindoos”. They didn’t prepare well enough and underestimated the enemy — always a cardinal error.
