    Default Waziristan: campaigning in the past and soon?

    A new Pakistani campaign in Waziristan is expected soon and has been subject of scattered comments on SWJ blog and within other threads.

    There are lessons to learn from an Imperial (British Empire in India) campaign in this part of the FATA read thanks to the UK blogsite (again): http://defenceoftherealm.blogspot.co...re-before.html

    There are links to other sources within and this appeared originally within the current Afghan campaigning thread: http://council.smallwarsjournal.com/...?t=8577&page=4 where similar points that lessons can be learnt have been made.

    I do wonder whether the Pakistani military remember this too? Imperial history is still part of their tradition and army units have kept their old Imperial names, head dress and more (not the consumption of alcohol).
