Those who thinks hez telling truth plz consider the following facts:
= First War between India and Pakistan was fought in October 1947.
= Sethi was born in May 1948. [a year after First Indo-Pak war].
[First Indo-Pak War 1947] Bearing in mind his date of birth, in my opinion the facts hez describing about 1947 war cant be true for the reason that those incidents took place a year before his birth, therefore, he does not possesses first hand knowledge or information about 1947 war. Secondly, he has not quoted any credible source or commission report that supports the story narrated by him about 1947 war. Thus to me his story itself is a conspiracy theory.
[Second Indo-Pak War 1965]
Since he was born in May 1948 so at the time of Second Indo-Pak War in 1965 he was just a 16/17 years old boy. Given the fact that he was a teenager in 1965 how he can be so sure about the facts hez describing about this war. He didnt say that at this tender age he actually had a chance to meet any of Pakistani war planner instead he mentioned a third person who asked ZA Bhutto abt the war, so his knowledge is based on hearsay stories thus its not credible.
[Third Indo-Pak War 1971]
Sethi did his graduation from Government College Lahore in 1967 after that he went to England and got a BA Honour in Economics from Cambridge in 1970 thereafter he stayed there for another year as Ph.d research fellow; that means till 1971/72 sethi was not present in Pakistan. Considering his absence from Pakistan during the period between 1967 to 1971/72, his knowledge and information about the incidents took place in that period does not sound authentic and is not based on credible evidence. Whatever he said is based on romours he heard about war sitting in England.
[I'll not comment on Kargil]
Bearing in mind above facts to me his analysis about the reality of Indo-Pak wars sounds illogical and lacks credibility. Moreover hez unfair to blame Pakistan for every thing. No doubt there might have been some mistakes on Pakistan's part but it doesnt mean that he should discuss those mistakes like this in Public.
