If proof still were needed
Much speculative analysis and obfuscatory prognosis have occurred about Pakistan's invasion of Kargil. Questions are also asked, motivated or otherwise, about whether there is any real evidence of direct Pakistani involvement in the conflict.
Time for Sharif's survival script
Having suffered another humiliating military defeat, Pakistan has much to learn from its strategic blunder in Kargil. Never before has Pakistan been heaped with so much international opprobrium and seldom has an elected civilian government, in itself a rarity in Pakistan, looked so much out of control.

With the Kargil crisis almost over, tourist traffic is beginning to pick up again in Kashmir. In fact, this week the state government is gearing up for the mother of tourist inflows -- the famous pilgrimage to the holy cave of Amarnath.
