US response to IOK incident    

Letter February 18, 2019
ndian brutality under Modi government has reached its peak hence the acts of retaliation from Kashmiris

LAHORE: The US has been quick to support the Indian response to the Pulwama incident on the pretext of self-defence. The US has once again picked sides without giving much consideration to the facts and has blatantly ignored Indian atrocities in Kashmir. If India is justified in reacting militarily, so are Kashmiris. Indian brutality under Modi government has reached its peak hence the acts of retaliation from Kashmiris. Furthermore, the US instead of wrongfully supporting India’s right of self-defence should condemn Indian atrocities against Kashmiris.
