Pakistan failed to heed India’s requests to deter cross border export of terrorism to India. In order to avenge attack on army camp at Uri, where 18 Indian javans died, on29-9-2016, Thursday, Indian commandos attacked/ destroyed 5 terrorist training camps, killing about 38 terrorists. Our whole hearted congratulations to Prime Minister Modi and commandos for success. But India’s hands are clean, as attack was “along LoC”, in territory illegally occupied by Pakistan, and “not across”. Thus India has not invaded Pakistan; no Pakistani fatality. As terrorists were declared as foreigners, non-state actors by Pakistan it may not be right for it to sympathize with them. As terrorists are said to have no religion, India has not attacked Islam.
No nation has objected to this attack; many have warned Pakistan against Nuclear threat. Actually Pakistan should be grateful to India for cleansing action that Pakistan could not do. Here we must praise Muslim unity too: Pakistan banned all Bollywood films soon after surgical strike, declaring Bollywood as enemy. But Indian, Muslim actor is not accepting that by same standard Pakistani artists in Bollywood are enemies of India. Muslims and whole world must see India’s tolerance as irrefutable reality.
