Lastly, I agree Indian Military(overall) is gaining weight, but that comes from People of India listening to the military and forcing the politicians to heed them, instead of the Military gaining weight in the Govt hierarchy. However I see that as a good sign, Indian Military was anemic till now wrt the influence it carried in govt policy. The GoI has now and only very slowly started listening the Military. I dont see how that can be a bad sign.
no it wont be a bad sign for you because you are an established , old and big democracy
but with us its wrong because democracy is the best revenge
ok pun aside
I would at the level of this forum take the lead to defuse the tension among us, I must commend you guys to show your response over this incident whereas hundreds of soldiers are killed in conflict with TTP and no one even bothered to offer a condolence.
by the way what you say about unity might have been true back in the 90s and early 2000. the game has passed a long way now and LeJ and TTP together have gone so deep in our society that Malala , Soleman Taseer and the like are disliked and ridiculed and terrorists like Dr Afiya and and Molana Burka of Red Mosque are declared "daughters of Islam"
TTP and LeJ hold the ultimate weapon to play with the mind of our nation, the "Islam".. god forbid if your army one day starts playing Quranic verses and puts Quran on the Bayonets and start marching towards us, we will just drop to our knees and submit to your Islamicness (it has worked in the past where a section of "Muslims" successfully employed that during our civil war).
Today, on Dawn on the news about our DGMO discussions, I read a message of an Indian and I cant ignore it. he maintains that due to low popularity the Congress has thrown this stunt.
NO HOLD on
if this anti India trick work wonders with our emotions.. then so does with the Indians
dont you see Pakistani flags being burnt. Politicians demanding blood? and all that media hoo Haa?
so, if our leadership (Military or civilan) can throw this stunt then so can yours.
my personal view?
I say it doesnt really matter if we did indeed cross the border to kill Indians.
WHY?
because your leadership (military or civilian) will do what it has always done in the past whenever such allegations were leveled
so?
we believe every single thing you say and brace ourselves for the "reprisal".. well thats why we have this hundreds of kilometer long disputed border dont we?
