I’m trying to figure out brother @KhalaiMakhlooq where exactly you are coming from.
I don’t quite understand what source of information to you is brainwashing and propaganda and what is not.
What would you consider as neutral sources of information? Any news site or video channel?
You sound like you support Afghanistan’s government at times, others you are favoring the US, and then you also do the same for Pakistan, although you are full of more criticism of Pakistan than any others.
No doubt, Pakistani governments have had no real policy for the last 17 years and have been reactionary at best. Countering severe allegations with only verbal statements was no way to run foreign policy.
We finally have a new government in Islamabad which is on the same page as the Pakistani military. Afghanis, especially Pukhtoons, have taken notice and are willing to find a solution which brings back Pakistani influence into Afghanistan.
Also note the return of Gulbuddin Hekmatyar (the veteran mujahideen and Pukhtoon leader) to Afghanistan from Iran has bolstered pressure on the Kabul regime to find a solution with Pakistan.
Be a bit optimistic and pray for the best. For Pakistan, this new era is a rediscovery of our potential as a nation.
What box would you put me into in terms of where I am coming from? but I would say the following:
1. There is no single source of information, I collect from multiple sources and unify and abstract in context of history, logic, reason and intellect, other world events and understanding of the macro-world view, that I try to refine constantly.
2. I don't try to criticise government's by saying 'Country X is like this' that's simply not true. Every country is not reduced to single thing. There millions of unique people from diverse cultures, stories, experiences and backgrounds in each country, all different. I try to remain unbiased because of someones identity.
3. I try to challenge an individuals personal views and perspective and world-view. I will not render a comment made by a single person to mean 'well, that's the whole of country x'. If you are wrong, you are wrong - simple as that. I will never take sides of one nation over another, simply because a person or group of people from that country 'feel' in a certain way. That applies to all countries.
4. Supporting the action of one person from country X, does not mean I have to automatically agree with everything they say and reject everything they reject. For example, If country X has great things I will acknowledge that, If you want me to hate country Y because 'thats just how it is', I would not, because that's wrong.
5. I do not see the world with ideology, where I feel obliged to like and dislike based on consensus of members of that ideology. That means a pre-set form of beliefs that i use as a lens for the world.
To say I am more critical of Pakistan than any other nation on Earth is not true. Maybe it may seem that way to yourself as occasionally what I say may seem contraflow to ones thought.
I would support an entity (event or action or policy) based on that entities properties alone.
