Indians do not need to do any thing adverse for Pakistan, we dont need to when Pakistan itself has gone into self distructive mode. Instead of wasting precious resources in inciting unrest in India they should fight the evil forces present in their midst.
snfbdkj: "To save them self Pakistani soldiers are hiding behind or hiding in civilian shelters."
@snfbdkj: This line is stolen from your ally Israel, which uses this same argument to brutalize our Palestinian brothers. Shame on you.
India has been killing our Kashmiri people for 66 years in Indian occupied Kashmir, now they are killing our brothers in Azad Kashmir in Pakistan. When will someone stop this murderous and rapist nation?
"Pakistan reserves the right to retaliate and it’s about time we exercise that".
A line copied by the Indian COAS. Funny of a Pakistani.
why pak army does allow likes of LET,JM to operate from other side of kashmir. the whole world knows the truth and pak cant remain in denial mode.the civilians in pak have suffered a lot due to this civil military conflict ,and if they dont learn it now pak is going to turn into another egypt sadly.INDIA does not hols anything against pak but i repeat beheading and 6 august operation without the tactical support of army considering the heavy deployment of army on both sides LOC.
Pakistan reserves the right to retaliate and it's about time we exercise that. But we must not in anyway target civilian populations, like India is doing presently, since the likely casualties of such activities would be our own brothers and sisters in the Indian-occupied Kashmir.
Pak. should retaliate with force instead of exercising restraint. Indians should not be allowed to murder innocent civilians as a ploy to get more votes.
Where are all those people and tv anchors who wanted Musharraf to stand up to US? I wonder why they are quiet now?
To save them self Pakistani soldiers are hiding behind or hiding in civilian shelters.
