When done effectively, it can help politicians survive even the most crippling of scandals or other problems. Some of the more famous military examples could include the Falklands War, which helped British PM Margret Thatcher win an election she was expected to lose, and US President George HW Bush’s Iraq invasion, which was not enough to carry him to victory.

ISLAMABAD – Indian journalist and a supporter of the ruling BJP in India, Arnab Goswami, had prior knowledge of the Modi government’s plan to carry out a strike on Pakistani soil days before Indian Air Force bombed Pakistani soil, the Balakot intrusion on February 26, 2019.
