Have you EVER thought the same about those fanatic elements in your country who have been sponsoring cross-border terrorism in the region for more than half a century? And gloat so much about their support for Mukti Bahini, LTTE, BLA, TTP etc?
I agree, everyone should put own house in order. We Pakistanis feel the same here and despite knowing that more than 90% of terrorist attacks in Pakistan are Indian sponsored, we do not start jumping and accusing India outright after every attack within few minutes.
We feel it is our responsibility to protect our schools, hospitals, buses, funerals, churches, mosques from foreign sponsored terrorism.
Lol
You know what?
North Koreans believe they are the greatest nation in the world. Victims of govt propaganda!
Nazis fooled Germans into believing that Jews were their enemies. How can one forget holocaust?
The gist of it is...Pakistanis believe what is being fed to them by their media which is controlled by a few agencies.
If you thought you could use the same argument for Indian media then you're wrong. We are a democratic country. Diff sections of our media,and its affiliations ensure that we get all the news- good bad,ugly. Manipulating us is a lil hard.
I have heard that till 1990's, it was common among Pakistani parties to use anti-India speeches to get votes. I'm glad your people have matured now. Your post makes me doubt it though.
Now, if you thought I was foolish enough to believe that "
90% of terrorist attacks" in Pakistan are sponsored by india then you're wrong.
Likes of Hafiz Saeed, whose organisation has been declared a terrorist org by UN, are not protected on our soil. Such ppl don't roam around on our streets giving hate speeches.
If I were to give you one more example, then let me remind you not so long back an Indian aircraft was hijacked by a Pakistani terrorist org. It was taken straight to Kandahar (Afghanistan) which was then under Taliban. I'm sure you're not naive enough to understand what I'm hinting at.
Having said that, I don't claim our agencies are angels. Do you expect our agencies to remain mum when the agencies of an enemy state fuel terrorism within our country? Really?
Coming back to our topic- Indian army.
Between our chief and the Uri attack there are many 2 and 3 star officers and soldiers who keep our army going. We are proud of them.
At this crucial juncture I would not like to demoralise our soldiers by criticising them. Army has its issues, it will be dealt with soon (I hope) now that it's come to the fore.
