We were told to forget about what happened post Ceasefire announcement.  I guess we can't do much against US Deep State... 

It has infiltrated our media and institutions.

Why Israel and US constatly target Iranian nuclear facilties? So does South Korea on North Korea. Why not India accept that it targets Pak nuclear arsenal. It is for ever lasting peace. India/West countries think that they are righteos responsible nations, nuclear weapons with rogue failed states is bad. It's high time to push that narrative.

I was specifically referring to civilian casualties. 

 

As a non-strategic thinker, my mind always focuses on individuals and their plight. When I see someone, regardless of nationality or religion, who lost her child to a stray bullet or a nearby missile strike that destroyed a military outpost, I cannot get my mind off that particular person and focus on the "bigger picture" citing collateral damage. The whole idea of war and violence is abhorrent - even knowing that often it is inevitable. 

 

Science is easy. Ask question. Do experiment. Do honest analysis. Answer is there.

 

Geopolitics, war? Very difficult.

It is a terrific decision regardless, no?

yes but @Lone Wolf said above it's a terrific decision if you are brahmin. fascinating.

ok, you quoted the wrong post.  I am a bit numb about human war casualities, it is inevitable as they say about the the horrors of war. But, war has it its purpose for the greater good if it works out to establish peace in the long term. 

 

Talk of humanity in a war context makes people call you a peacenik and a softie. I cannot watch viral videos of people dying in accidents in some viral videos. I have been called a softie too.  It varies for each person, I guess.

This whole leaving/staying is an individual choice based on one's specific career/family/individual situation at any given point in time. Desh-bhakti rarely enters the equation. I am not sure there is a difference between someone who left Palakkad to go work in Kolkata in 1935 (my grandfather), or someone who left Bengaluru to go study/work in the US in 1992 (me). You go where there is an opportunity at that time.

I just said what India is going to do.  Why directing your anger towards me ? I neither led armed forces or nation.

Technically they haven't broken cease 'fire' . These are surveilliance drones

 

But we must retaliate before losing any more people/jawans

relax, he's as Indian as anybody. Just a bit indifferent, cynical  and disappointed with the way last week went down. 

 

Yes lets not label each other on slight disagreement.

Would we say the same thing if we lived in cities near the LoC/ Border and had to live in a state of perpetual fear?

Yes. Cause I know India army and PM don't have guts to respond.
