  1. The appeal is not to India as India has no beef with Pakistan, but to the Pakistan military particularly Pak army who consume 70% of Pakistan's budget. Defense doesn't creates wealth and is a pure cost center. If 70% of the nation's budget only goes to a non value creation activity, that nation is in for serious trouble. This happened with USSR and now happening to Pakistan. Pakistan has been propped up with aid from USA and Arab countries particularly Saudi Arabia. Now when these aid have either stopped or come down to a trickle, Pakistan economy cannot support its expenditure bulk of which goes to Pakistan military. Hence, the appeal is more to Pakistan army that Pakistan economy can no longer support the humongous Pakistan military therefore it needs to mend fences with India.
