Children stream back to school across Pakistan to start new term following Peshawar attack

For the COAS to be there when the school reopened was a noble gesture indeed, and one that I applaud. This is a man who knows what to do, it seems. Bravo, Sir, bravo!

Killing innocent people does not comes in the context of bravery or resiliant. Israel is just a coward country which feels proud in killing little kids, which only indians like you appreciates. The only resilient country on planet is Pakistan who in spite of loosing 80000+ civilians and against all odds still fighting these terrorists.
And just look at those kids, after watching their friends being killed in front of their eyes by terrorists, they are still here, they didnt asked their parents to not sent them to this school but instead they were saying that they are not afraid of terrorists and they shall continue their study no matter what happens.
But If still you cant see this then i am afraid i cant help you since you are a complete blind.

Don't you get it? Israel provides SAMs and UAVs to India, which India can't make on its own (No pressure, you guys try hard). Of course, Indians going to appreciate it. Plus, it is only few Indians like him who support Israel, rest of them hate Israel like any of us.

really? and how about defeating 6 muslim nations in 6 days? for a tiny nation Israel is brave like hell. dont you agree?:D btw, your military has kille millions of bangladeshi civilians. where do you find bravery in that?

yes i do feel for the poor kids. they shouldnt have been killed. but doesnt it serves you right. when 250 of our unarmed and innocent civilians were murdered in cold blood in 2008 Mumbai attacks you people were celebrating with joy and were proud of the pakistani jihadists who carried out this gruesome act.

And what would you get after sucking Israeli tasticals...oh sorry that's your job.

the same thing that you get after sucking chinese testicles:D

Being "brave" or being "strong " are two different things. Bravery is not measured by how many people have you killed or how many nations have you destroyed, instead bravery is the word used for those who face difficulties or face opponent stronger than their size without any hesitation or fear.
Israel may be strong but not brave. And i dont know about indians but i personally don't consider those people brave who kills innocent kids. Killing people who are unarmed, bombing their homes and blowing schools are not the features of bravery, it comes only in the context of timidness.

btw, your military has killed millions of bangladeshi civilians. where do you find bravery in that?
The bangladesh incidence is over exaggerated, they have claimed that we have raped millions of womens and killed millions of people how is it possible for an army of hardly 2 lakh to do all of this plus confronting its arch enemy from both side of borders at a same time.
And since you have forgotten, our people were also killed in that war and also dont close your eyes towards the atrocities that your own army also have done covertly on people of bangladesh to keep the situation tense. Even your own people have admitted that they have flamed such riots. And go search for a person named Mukhti bahini who killed thousands of people, and also do search who was financing and supporting that person.

And by going with your logic one can also say that indians are cowards, since they have raped thousands of kashmiri women and killed million of kashmiris. What do you think about it?

yes i do feel for the poor kids. they shouldnt have been killed. but doesnt it serves you right. when 250 of our unarmed and innocent civilians were murdered in cold blood in 2008 Mumbai attacks
Shame on you man! you have no idea what are you saying. You are justifying one terrorists act by the other.
Please care to tell me what was the fault of those kids who were killed in this attack? Were they terrorists? Did they carried out attacks in mumbai? Let me tell you one thing MR, most of the people who were killed in peshawar attack were little kids, they were just innocent kids! who did not even knew anything about the politics. How can you say it serves us right! have you lost your mind or what! How can you frame those innocent kids as terrorists and murderers?
Just tell me are you trolling here or you are just depicting the sick mentality of your nation?


you people were celebrating with joy and were proud of the pakistani jihadists who carried out this gruesome act.
Who told you that we celebrated and said that we were proud of those barbarians who carried out this act?
You just needs to grow up, we are not like indians who do point scoring even in these types of situations
When that attack occurred, we were the first people who condemned it, not only that we also endured the BS that your media was throwing at us. Your country even send its aircraft into our territory, we even tolerated that for you guys by saying that they are in tough situations, lets forgive what they are doing. And what not?

I think "Resilient" is the perfect term to use. When you suffer traumatic stress you can go into a regressive state from which you may never recover. I have worked with people who have suffered PTSD and never had that "chat" with people, instead the took all the "hurt" and locked it up inside a cupboard. One day that cupboard opens and it all comes crashing out and that is dangerous.

Looking at the pictures I can see apparent signs of psychosocial trauma on some of the children, I can see this because I have had to deal with children who lost everything, their homes, families and friends in 2005, 2010, 2011 disasters in Pakistan, I can see that same "thousand yard stare" on the boy in the first picture on Post#2.

Resilience is termed as:

the capacity to recover quickly from difficulties; toughness:

So what these little heroes are doing today is just that. Believe you me, when I saw a colleague die due to a terrorism incident, it took me a very, very long time to come to terms with it. I just hope that these children and their families can come to terms with what happened, and learn to build and rebuild.

You are talking about resilience at an individual, personal level. I know fully well how victims of such traumatic events (especially if they were very young when it happened) suffer throughout their lives. Personally, I know somebody who was sexually assaulted when he was eight years old. Today he is a succesfull businessman and has a family, but he is still haunted by the memory, has recurring nightmares, and is still suffering from the trauma. I am sure that people suffering from PTSD also have a similar experience later on.

But I was talking about this cliche bandied about by the media, about a city's or country's resilience. Is Mumbai resilient, because Mumbaikars went back to work after 26/11? Is Peshawar a "resilient city" because Peshawaris still send their kids to school, after the horrendous attack? Do they have any choice, other than to go on with life? Would any other city or country have been any different? My point is that people are still going to work/school etc, not because they are resilient, but because they have no choice.

And even if we talk about resilience on an individual level - as you rightly say, even trained soldiers experience PTSD after being in intense combat, or experiencing trauma. So would you expect little schoolchildren or other civilians to be "resilient" after such an event? That word (resilient) is used in a positive sense, in a laudatory tone - does this mean that a young boy or girl who suffers extreme PTSD is somehow less worthy? My point is that to become psychologically scarred after such an event is a very human trait - it is not a failing or flaw or weakness. When the media praises a city or individuals for being "resilient", they are implying that other people aren't.
