Bilawal Bhutto is being sent to represent Pakistan because he belongs to a powerful political family that boasts of money, influence, land, two former Prime Ministers and a sitting President. And he can speak English. This is exactly why he was FM. No qualifications. No achievements. Just a family name.
@ShashiTharoor is being asked to represent India because he understands global diplomacy. At the age of 22 years, he completed his PhD from the Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy, Tufts University, becoming the youngest person at the time to have ever done so. For almost three decades, he worked at the @UN rising to the position of Under-Secretary-General.
Dr. Tharoor is an award-winning, internationally-bestselling author of over twenty-five books, both fiction and non-fiction. He has won a score of prestigious literary honours, including the Commonwealth Writer’s Prize, the Crossword Lifetime Achievement Award and the Sahitya Akademi Award — India’s second-highest literary prize — in the category of “English Non-Fiction” for An Era of Darkness, his magisterial indictment of the British Raj. At present, he is a fourth-term Member of Parliament and represents the parliamentary constituency of Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala, in the Lok Sabha.
But perhaps Dr. Tharoor’s greatest achievement is that he is a self made man. He has made it on his own…something that Bilawal knows nothing about.

MAXIMUM REPOSTS BECAUSE PEOPLE NEED TO BE ENLIGHTENED ABOUT THIS. NO TIME FOR GRAMMAR ON THIS.
One more problem is very serious right now, last time skies of JK, PUNJAB,RAJASTHAN were this dark in pre 200 times. After all the increase in light pollution people were not been able to see the night sky this clearly. I have some personal Star Gazing Experience. Now all of sudden light from the sky is gone and people are watch low altitude satellites and confusing them with drone, though a phone in normal situations cannot capture LOW ORBIT SATS. So If you phone is clearly capturing something it can be either AN IAF JET HIGH ALTITUDE(MAKES 0 SOUND WITHOUT AFTERBURNERS)or it can be our own surveillance drone or finally an enemy drone. You guys have to comprehend this basic knowledge in times for Modern warfare. Insta pe reels mien time waste mat karo thoda gyaan khud se gain karo please.
“Bahawalpur.”
I still have chills in my heart from when I first heard that town’s name in late January 2002. For the 23 years since, I have reported on how Pakistani intelligence and military leaders have used that city — Bahawalpur — in the southern province of Punjab as a base for its homegrown domestic terrorists.
When I heard India bombed training camps in Pakistan this week in Operation Sindoor, in response to a Pakistani terrorist rampage in India’s Kashmir state, I had one city’s name on my lips: Bahawalpur.
Did India bomb Bahawalpur?
It did. I knew then India was striking actual hubs for Pakistan’s homegrown domestic terrorism.
Why do I know?
My friend, WSJ reporter Danny Pearl, went to Bahawalpur in December 2001 with a notebook and a pen. Gen. Pervez Musharraf had just promised he was shutting down Pakistan’s militant groups after a strike by Pakistan’s terrorists against the Parliament in India, and Danny reported on the militant offices in Bahawalpur.
He literally knocked on their doors. Dear Dr. @yudapearl, this story is a window into Danny’s reporting enterprise. And because people will wonder: Danny was no cowboy. This was a calculated low-risk reporting trip because no journalist had been targeted for kidnapping in Pakistan. Around that time, Danny sent me an email: “I’m anxious to go to Afghanistan, but I’m not anxious to die.”
What did Danny learn?
The militant training camps were open for business in Bahawalpur.
On Jan. 23, 2002, Danny left a home I had rented in Karachi, Pakistan, for an interview.
I learned Danny’s fixer, Asif Farooqi, had arranged an interview for Danny through a man named “Arif.” Danny didn’t know it but Arif was the PR man for a militant group, Harkutul Mujahadeen. What was Arif’s hometown? Bahawalpur.
The police launched a manhunt to find Arif in Bahawalpur. We learned Arif’s family faked a funeral for Arif. Police found him trying to board a bus in Muzaffarabad, across the country by Pakistan’s border with Kashmir.
It is another town India said it bombed terrorist training facilities.
Arif had handed Danny off to Omar Sheikh,a British-Pakistani dropout from the London School of Economics, radicalized in the 1990s in London mosques. He went to Pakistan to train in these militant training camps. Then he kidnapped tourists in India. He was caught and jailed but on Dec. 31, 1999, he was traded for hostages in the hijacking of Indian Airlines Flight 814.
Omar Sheikh was freed with Pakistani terrorist leader Masood Azhar, whose family was allegedly killed this week by India’s air strike in Bahawalpur.
Did Pakistan jail Omar Sheikh and Masood Azhar when they returned to Pakistan with a third terrorist, freed from India’s jails?
No. Pakistan’s military and intelligence gave them safe passage. They used them as weapons against India. But in fact these domestic terrorists have waged war against innocents in Pakistan, like civil society activists, Benazir Bhutto, Punjab Governor Salman Taseer, schoolchildren and countless others.
Their extremism has ruined Pakistan, and Pakistanis can’t blame America for creating the mujahideen to fight the Soviets in the 1980s.
Pakistan has had a duty to dismantle those terrorist bases — for even the safety of its own people. What India is doing is a strategic attack on terrorist bases Pakistani military and intelligence should have eliminated but never did in their obsession to take over Kashmir.
You will see parallels in the propaganda messages against India and Israel. Like Hamas, Pakistani terrorists crossed a border to kill. Now, Pakistani propagandists call themselves victims of their “fascist” “colonizer” neighbor.
It’s the Reverse Uno strategy of moral inversion, just like @stoolpresidente got from the Temple student who won’t take responsibility for promoting the “HATE THE JEWS” sign. Don’t fall for it. Nations, communities and people must own up to their extremism, from Bahawalpur to beyond.
@sama could you fix the technical glitch with the image editor feature i’m trying to create network flow and what I get right now is just horrendous for a paid subscription platform
