In same manner Pakistanis say "well they killed kashmiris" "well the attack was by their own in revenge" well this and that
Therefore majority just toe their own line specially when it comes to armed forces. Soldiers unfortunately are people who are most loved by own side and seen as killers by other side. This is more true here because of wars, accusations, hatred, division. Attack on Quetta generates sympathy but not attack on cadets who are blown up by same terrorists. The later of course were soldiers. In same manner Mumbai generates sympathy but no one on other sides condemn URI even if it is by terrorists.
This is standard run of the mill thinking that is going on since many years ...so no need to expect much from other side specially when it comes to soldiers. poor people who are doing nothing but following establishment and politicians. Other side do not think that they also have family.
people like sonu are rare and special. who understand the bigger picture.
Really? I wonder where all the overflowing sympathy was when the Pandits were getting slaughtered and chased out by the majority community with help from pakistan? I heard benazir bhutto's hate filled speech that she gave at the time. Simply no words for it and for that woman.
The problem is pakistani interference with its neighbor's affairs be it India or Afghanistan started from its inception itself. Most people think that poor pakistan, all it did was help US in the Afghan war and ended up with terrorists. But the fact of the matter is that pakistan was creating mischief there long before US and Russia came on the scene.
Sonu can keep his sympathy to himself. And no he is not a rare one and there is nothing special about what he said. Just turn on any Indian channel you will find a lot of such sympathy on the Indian side.
Pakistan is reaping what it sowed. Too bad! Please stop giving aman ke bhashan Sonu.
