there is no religion or nationality of terrorists who kill innocent people. I have same disgust and anger against those who massacred innocent Indians in Mombai and I understand the anguish and distress when you hear that Pakistan is talking about going after TTP in Afghanistan but you couldnt do that. I have said it many times that I have no justification or sympathy for those who were involved in the Mombai massacre . just because there was one Pakistani caught and there was an alleged phone call telling the terrorists what to do.
The way I see it Sirji is that everyone has to do what they can to pay back in kind...
I was with America when it went into Afghanistan for retribution...and I will be with Pakistan in this situation if they decide to venture into Afghanistan for their pound of flesh...
It is upon the Pakistani state to decide ahead of time about the consequences that could come with...other than that it is your right to defend yourselves by any means..
In the case of 26/11, India considered similar options and decided against them weighing in the pros and cons...
Maybe it was too pacifist or maybe it was calculated...the point is, we didnt find it worthwhile to take action through those measures...and that's all upon us...at the end of the day, India became more resilient as a country and came together against a menace and that's the most important after effect I think...
here also we found repeatedly Afghan, Arabs and Uzbek terrorists, we didnt threaten to launch attacks on those countries because we know it wasnt done by the state. you made up your mind in blaming ISI and Pakistan army over Mombai massacre so my denial and clarification with any type of reasoning wont matter to you so I stop at just showing my grief as I have done many times before in the past.
Mind you there is a difference...
India didnt say it was going to go after Pakistan and its state establishment...you are absolutely wrong on that..
India wanted to go after the sanctuaries in P.O.K that were home to anti-India terrorists...
Now according to Pakistan, this would be an act of violating its sovereignty..which I can see from your perspective...
Nevertheless, if Afghanistan in today's scenario said that it would react to Pakistani offensive on terrorist sanctuaries in Afghanistan by even going as far as using nukes, what would you say then?
Would you complicit the Afghan govt as sheltering the TTP or not? now please put that into perspective...
India is willing to work with Pakistan on eliminating terror....however it seems our definitions of terror are different at this point in time....
I hope the current scenario bring us closer to identifying our common enemy...although I wish it wasn't at the expense of children's lives!
