My targets were selected (not elected) to hit the ISI as a snake pit of Islamist subversion in the Pak government, to disrupt internal communications and to disrupt ocean-going trade. All of these targets are relatively low loss of life. The bridges and docks will take a while to repair and will stand as a warning.

Your idea also sounds good. I do not how much air power India can put up to strike Pakistan at once.

the targets i mentioned were more symbolic in nature and would be hardly more than a face saving gesture for the Indian govt.

If India really wanted to make a statement, hitting the ISI as you suggest, taking out a couple key bridges, etc. would certainly send a message to Pak

what I think is likely is that India and Pak will both mobilize and move to the LOC in some number, with low intensity conflict, artillery exchanges, bomb a camp or 2 in Kashmir, much like we saw during the 02’ Indo-Pak crisis
