India and Pakistan Tensions Escalate!
Yo, things are heating up between India and Pakistan. It just felt very news anchor appropriate to start like that, but it’s crazy, though. This all kicked off when terrorists attacked Kashmir on the Indian side, killing 11 tourists. India retaliated, stating they were only targeting terrorist spots on the Pakistani side and trying to avoid military targets to keep things peaceful. Then Pakistan responded and tensions escalated.
Some reports are saying fighter jets were shot down, but India is denying it. I don’t know why this is entertaining me, but it’s obviously concerning, especially for Punjabis and Sikhs, as the areas Pakistan is attacking are heavily Sikh-populated. People are wondering what the hell is going on.
This is one of those conflicts where the amount of disinformation online is insane, even coming from journalists, making it hard to figure out what’s really happening. These countries have been on the brink of war for a long time. I don’t have any positive thoughts on this. We all want peace, obviously, but the global reaction seems muted compared to conflicts involving Israel, Ukraine, or Russia.
It makes you wonder if people don’t understand the situation or simply don’t care. The only thing I see coming out of this is a bunch more border movies. Sunny Deol probably just secured the bag with Border 2, 3, 4, and 5! But seriously, where’s the peace? Eventually, they’ll probably just call a ceasefire, but until then, it’s insane. I just hope innocent bystanders survive because there are reports of temples and mosques being bombed, which is never good. Peace.
