Re: Height of hatred in Indians towards Pakistanis..
I haven’t changed the topic at all. Just shown a different side of it.
I’m sorry that you can’t broaden the circle of thought enough to be able to see how the two things are related.
I have. In fact it’s something that has been addressed in my daughter’s classroom and was also discussed in my own several years back.
Now what do we do? Your observation is different from my experience. Who’s right now?
It’s pretty infantile to suggest that I’m trying to paint them as angels. I’ve merely shared my personal experience. I’m not naive enough to think that the entire Indian population shared the same sentiment as the small city in Punjab where my bhabhi’s family came from. Nor am I misguided enough to believe that all of India hates all of Pakistan.
In terms of the incident being discussed, it’s horrible how they were treated. And it’s worse that the hoteliers can get away with this sort of behaviour.
By the same token I do have to question how many people of Pakistani origin or ties travel to India repeatedly (and there are many in my personal circle) and do not face the same sort of discrimination.
As for the forums where Indians are spewing hatred against Pakistanis, it doesn’t take much to find the same happening in Pakistani forums so I guess neither side is immune or better than the other. Look at this thread…nobody is willing to even consider that this incident may be reflective of a small percentage with the thousands and thousands that travel to India all the time. We just want to damn the country and anyone who might show the other side while turning a blind eye to the hand we may have in creating the situation.
Carry on.
