I don’t know why you think terrorism needs to be excused as some sort of geo political game. Actually the terrorists in their manifesto say what they are doing is to punish the west for anti-Islamic actions. And then they go and kill innocent civilians and children in Peshawar. You like PAKistan cannot succeed in any objective if you want to use terrorism as a means and at the same time want to be seen as anti- terrorism.

Mr Mirchandani, where in my posts did I excuse terrorism? Please don’t make such assumptions, its extremely saddening and agitating to be blamed of such. I can be anti-terrorism, and be anti-“war on terrorism” at the same time, because both are leading to suffering for human beings. I believe in the utmost sanctity of human life, regardless of national and religious background.

All nations are at all times looking after their geopolitical and geostrategic interests. Just because I’m of Pakistani origin, I’m not going to blindly believe in the Pakistani narrative. I expect likewise, from any peace loving Indian and American. Because none of India, Pakistan and US, are working unconditionally for the greater good, which is 100% (unconditional) peace in the region. Not when that peace comes at the price of what they perceive as the best interests of their nation.

Am I wrong in pointing this out? Am I wrong in being able to distinguish between an objective view on the matter, from a biased one?

I would also like to know, what correlation does condemning American military intervention have to do with supporting terrorism? I’m baffled how you can correlate the two, so please do elaborate on this? Its rather simplistic to believe that America is unconditionally working for the greater good, when facts prove otherwise, no?
