Final Thoughts
The world is watching as South Asia teeters on the edge of deeper conflict. The root cause — state-sponsored terrorism — must be addressed for any meaningful peace. While both nations suffer in wartime, the evidence, admissions, and global stance indicate Pakistan has far more to lose if it continues down this path.
