TL;DR
Even after India's flashy š®š³ 2019 Balakot air strike šÆ, terrorism in Kashmir didnāt stop š, says top expert Sushant Singh in a bold interview š£ļø. Recent deadly attacks š£ show that political tamashas donāt really fix real ground problems š¶. Balakot was more about winning votes š³ļø than winning peace āļø. And now, the governmentās loud talk risks pulling two nuclear-armed countries into dangerous escalation ā”. Big lessons for us working class youth who dream of peace, not wars started by the rich ruling class š§ ā!

š£ Balakot: A Big Noise, Little Impact ā
In 2019, after the tragic Pulwama attack š, Indian fighter jets zoomed into Pakistan šµš° and did a big dhamaka š„ at Balakot šÆ. Modi sarkar shouted from rooftops š¢ that they had taught Pakistan a lesson. But guess what? šāāļø Former military officer and Yale professor Sushant Singh is spilling the truth š§ ā #Balakot didnāt create anyĀ real #deterrence! š³ Militants are still doing terror attacks like the recent deadly one at #Pahalgam š.
šļø Balakot: More About Votes, Less About Victory š³ļø
Singh drops a truth bomb š£ ā Balakot was less about military success and more about politics šļø. It came right before the 2019 elections š³ļø and boosted Modiās image š. But on ground? Militants kept coming š. So basically, it helped #BJP win votes, not peace ā®ļø. #PoliticalGimmick
š„ The Big Problem with Escalation
When India did Balakot, it actually increasedĀ tensions ā”. Pakistan responded by shooting down an Indian MiG-21 āļø and capturing pilot Abhinandan š¤Æ. Both countries almost went to full-scale war āļø, and it was so bad that US top official Mike Pompeo had to step in š.
Escalation between two #nuclear countries is super riskyĀ š§Ø. Singh warns: "Anyone can start a missile strike š, but de-escalating after that? š« Tough as hell!" If leaders act emotionally š§ ā, working-class youth like us are the ones who suffer š¤.
š„ Why the Latest Attack in Pahalgam Exposes the Truth
The latest attack in #Pahalgam, Kashmir, where 26 people were killed brutally š, shows that fancy air strikes and surgical strikes š didnāt fix the root problem š«. In fact, security on the ground has actually become weaker š, Singh points out.
Once two strong #CRPF battalions šŖ were removed from the area šļø, militants found it easy to attack š”. Again, itās the poor jawans and common Kashmiri people who are paying the price šøš for leaders sitting comfy in Delhi š¢.
š¤ MediaFx's Take
Brothers and sisters! ā This whole issue shows how #Nationalism gets sold to us poor people during elections š, while the real issues like unemployment š, farmer suicides š¾š, and price rise šš„ are forgotten š”. Peace and security can't come through missiles š or chest-thumping speeches š¤, but by addressing poverty šļø, providing education š, jobs š¼ and real social equality š§”.
War is a rich manās game, poor peopleās grave ā ļø. Never forget it, comrades! ā
š¢ Your turn!
Do you think the govt should focus more on ground security and peace talks instead of air strikes? š¤ Drop your thoughts in the comments! šš
