Deschamps has brashly taken all of his best players and fashioned them into the most lethal attacking unit in world football, sure.
But do they have the squad balance, leadership and cohesion provided by the likes of Dan Burn, Jordan Henderson and Anthony Gordon? I think not.
Yasin Malik’s men didn’t stop at raping the 27-year-old Kashmiri Hindu nurse Sarla Bhatt. They then murdered her, engraved the acronym ‘JKLF’ on her body, and mutilated it out of sheer contempt for her Hindu identity. After that, they issued multiple warnings to her family against cremating her remains according to Hindu rituals. The family still went ahead with the cremation, defying the threats. When they went to collect her cremated remains (asthi) later, a mob of around 200 Islamists descended upon the crematorium and stomped over them.
They didn’t stop even at that. They then bombed her family home with a grenade.
Do you really think all 200 of those monsters who showed up at the crematorium were foreign infiltrators, Pakistani terrorists, or JKLF members? These are the questions that make many Kashmiri Muslims very uncomfortable. The moment you raise these issues, especially when they present a narrative portraying their community as victims, they label you an Islamophobe or resort to similar accusations.
I have seen all kinds of Islamists, but the tribe in Kashmir is the craftiest. Many of them pretend to be atheists in private, yet their public behaviour and political leanings tell a completely different story. Very hard to take their words at face value.
This week
While going to #Singapore
Time taken at Indian immigration - 6.45 pm stood in the queue, around 75 people in the queue - just 2 officers. suddenly at 7.15 pm, 15 people jumped the lane mentioning their boarding closes at 7.45 pm. Finally completed immigration in 45 minutes
Singapore immigration - 30 Sec - scan passport and then facial recognition
No Security check !!
Return journey
Singapore immigration - 45 sec - including thumb impresssion
#India - lucky that my seat no is 8A, could clear in 15 minutes while 100 plus members in the queue again with 2 officers physically certifying. Security clearance another 15 minutes.
Then today onwards EBOLA health declaration. Did online submission, but wanted physical signature finally no one is there to check
On top of this I felt immigration officers to be indifferent and not concerned about queues. There is no higher authority atleast to address this issue
India has long long way to go. Not seen much change in the last 2 years.
You want to improve #tourism, then wake up

BREAKING: America has given India an assurance that access to technology will not be revoked once given, says India’s IT Secretary after U.S. revokes global access to Anthropic’s Mythos AI model
Wait, the same field marshal Munir who attended a black-tie event for the Pakistani-American community in Tampa, Fla., and casually declared, “We are a nuclear nation. If we are going to go down, we will take half the world down with us”?
That Munir?
Americans are going to regret this statement so badly one day.
JD Vance says:
“I have joked that I have two very, very important people in my life. An Indian and a Pakistani. The Indian is my wife, and the Pakistani is Field Marshal Munir.”
