Let's see: American Revolutionaries, Fought in a Armed uprising against the British and had assistance from the French.
Bangladeshi Mukti Joddhas Fought against a brutal dictatorship with the assistance of the India.
Both formed nation states recognized by the rest of the world, they were no ISIS or AQ operative likes.
Neither the Americans nor the Bengalis ever bombed, maimed, kidnapped, dismembered, innocent civilians into Britain and West Pakistan respectively, to further their agenda. unlike the Kashmiri or Taliban Mujhahideens who have bombed markets, railway stations, bus stations, hotels, kidnapped tourists, hijacked aircrafts, beheaded journalists and the list goes on and on.
But I do understand the need to term MB as a terrorists, it is intrinsic to the narrative. That gives you the justification to advocate LeT, JeM, HkUM, AZ's existence and their acts - calling out India "well it's Similar to those of Mukti bahini, you did it so will we" except that it's
NOT.
There is no Genocide, no Martial Law, no ethnic cleansing, no military dictatorship, and a fully functioning State govet, municipal commision, village panchayat... the democratic infrastructure in the state of Jammu and Kashmir unfortunately more sturdier that what pakistan has managed in the last 65 years, they have had more elections than the entire country of pakistan....
But Paksitan has another trick up it's sleeve, with these Morally supported groups; when their acts get out of the palatable platter, then you disassociate yourself with them with the famous "Non-State actors", which is tricky game of hide and seek and you win at it every time ....
So your govt will do a flippity-flop between State actors - like hurriyat - to whom you provide "Moral" support. And LET/JEM/HuM whom you disassociate but just provide boarding and Lodging and AK/RPG offcourse. and then there are the Magnum opus like Kargil which i don't think even your PM is sure of which bhel puri of actors were cast there, ....(kudos on that btw)
@Irfan Baloch Do I think MB are different from LeT/JeM/HuM, I do.. but that's just my opinion...
