Well, I didn&#8217;t know back then that only the selected responsibilities shall be taken up by the world leaders and so-called powerful nations\u2014only the responsibilities that suit their interest and their agenda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I watch the world making comments on India&#8217;s response to terror and am immediately thrown back to the time when 9\/11 was executed and the responses and the flowers of condolences that were poured into it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nothing like comparing graveyards, but watching the world\u2019s regimes&#8217; reaction\u2014discriminating on it\u2014actually pains my human heart, which certainly many in the world miss having. How does the West decide that the Indian graveyard is of less value\u2014so much so that they advocate for de-escalation\u2014and the American one was enough to wage wars against the organizations they built and facilitated?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Is not the doctrine of the Global War Against Terrorism included that every act of terror against every and any country must be responded to brutally with force? If yes, then why do I hear the screams about de-escalation from the world leaders, states\u2019 statements, and their mouthpiece media outlets?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I do not think that was a Global War Against Terrorism; it was, moreover, NATO&#8217;s war against terrorism. They seriously should name it that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Interestingly, I do not remember Osama&#8217;s existence being resolved by diplomatic channels but by an operation done by the US Navy SEALs. Surprisingly, when India does the same and targets the terror camps and the military cantonments which were the actual brain behind the massacre in the land of India, what I hear from the West is not a word of encouragement in contributing to the cause of the Global War on Terror, but the word \u201cde-escalation.\u201d How hypocritical of them. They are exposing themselves with no shame and remorse now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Words set the tone and intentions of the country on the world stage forums, and the words that I have heard aren&#8217;t well-suited or even pleasant to hear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I would like to quote the tweet made by an Indian journalist, Siddhant Sibal from WION, which said:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;White House on India-Pakistan tension: &#8216;President wants to see it de-escalate.'&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What tone exactly is this? Is the President of the US a flag bearer of the world system? But I remember it to be anarchical\u2014and how it shall work\u2014who decides the rules? Clearly not the G7 on our behalf. As far as I remember, I have no memory of the US President being elected as the South Asian peace establisher or negotiator.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And if the US President is so keen to have a say on the matter of 17.7% of the world\u2019s population, then he should consider all the factors in check, including the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If the West is desperate to see the de-escalation, well then, they shouldn\u2019t have permitted the IMF to fund the terror state.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And was the Trump administration sleeping when Maxar sold out the high-resolution satellite images of Pahalgam to Pakistan? Were they not informed? I highly doubt so.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The West never holds Pakistan accountable for the terrorism it spreads. Otherwise, despite the images and videos of Pakistani Army officials attending the funeral of terrorists, they decided to fund them through IMF.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What exactly is the dirt the West is trying to camouflage that Pakistan has over them?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Is the master scared that the dog might fall in its lap and bark against them?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Is the West repaying the loyalty of slavery during the Cold War era when India clearly had a stand of its own?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If the conscience of the West is pure and clear, they wouldn\u2019t have asked us to de-escalate\u2014rather asked the terror factory to shut down the industry of suicide bombers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Well, the self-proclaimed guardian isn&#8217;t the guardian for real but a terror-funding criminal that hides well behind the nice suits and dresses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The last thing the West should be is a moral compass for the world\u2014when in the name of the Global War on Terror they just bombed and destroyed nations where Weapons of Mass Destruction were never found.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They want us to play the role of a good cop and mature nation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Surely, we are mature. Our civilizational history outnumbers the existence of the entire West\u2014and one thing we learned from our thinkers is to hold our ground and protect ourselves against any and every foreign intruder, be it diplomatically or militarily.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Kautilya must be proud. Sam must be smiling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This one was for Mumbai, Uri, Pathankot, Pulwama, Pahalgam\u2014and more.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Riya Karan We all have grown up listening that with great power comes greater responsibilities.
