Pakistan, April 24 — With the recent incident in Pahalgam, a crunch question to the fore: is it truly an act of terrorism or a cleverly orchestrated false flag operation, cloaked in ambiguity and driven by deeper geopolitical agendas?
Certainly, all acts of terrorism are undeniably deplorable. Nevertheless, hastily blaming Pakistan without a comprehensive inquiry sparks significant reservations. This reckless stance casts doubt on the veracity of the incidents in Pahalgam and prompts examination into whether they might have been manipulated.
We need to scrutinize the order and scheduling of occurrences related to this event. The appearance of the U.S. Vice President in India along with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s trip to Saudi Arabia highlights an intriguing setting. Modi’s swift return to India following the incident seems strategically planned, evoking scenes from a cinematic Hollywood drama or a classic Shakespearean play.
This alignment raises the query: Is this simply an accident, or is it part of a meticulously planned design?
Past events underscore the importance of addressing this issue promptly. Take for instance President Bill Clinton’s trip to India, where around 30 Sikhs tragically lost their lives. Similarly, current affairs present us with an analogous situation: a significant diplomatic mission overlaps with a horrific terrorist incident in Kashmir. These remarkable similarities compel us to pay heed and consider them carefully.
India’s relationships with both Sikhs and Kashmiris are currently fraught with tension. It is these marginalized communities that bear the brunt of the situation, even though the Indian government might benefit politically from their plight. Is this not accurate? Those who suffered the most due to the latest event in Pahalgam are indeed the Kashmiri residents. Following the repeal of Article 370, Kashmiris have encountered heightened oppression, including strict curfews and limitations that significantly hamper their economic activities. As they started seeing potential improvements in tourism, another violent episode unfolded, leading one to ponder if such actions primarily undermine India or directly target the economic resurgence of the Kashmiri populace.
Pahalgam is largely inhabited by Muslims, with the local economy heavily dependent on tourism. This raises the question: Why would any Kashmiri group want to jeopardize the financial well-being of their own people?
This brings up another query: Why might this kind of event not happen in Jammu, considering the majority Hindu populace and the presence of the RSS? Typically, tourists heading to Pahalgam pass through Jammu, which serves as the primary pathway.
However, the ramifications of this incident extend far beyond immediate economic concerns. While the economy of Kashmiri Muslims faces destruction, Pakistan is unjustly being targeted as responsible for this terror attack.
This dynamic yields two profound consequences: first, it paints Pakistan as the aggressor and architect of terrorism in the perception of the international community; second, it cultivates a narrative among Kashmiris that their economic stability is imperiled by Pakistan.
Furthermore, this situation might warrant even stricter security protocols in Kashmir. Security concerns could potentially expedite land acquisition procedures, thereby exacerbating the marginalization of local communities. This issue with land appropriation is particularly significant when we consider the substantial properties controlled by the Muslim Waqf, spanning an area larger than many independent countries at 5,045 square kilometers.
India’s systemic focus on land acquisition needs to be examined within this context. The ongoing processes of colonization and land appropriation in Kashmir under various pretexts are likely to intensify in the name of security.
The undermining of the economic base for Kashmir’s Muslim population, along with efforts to diplomatically pressure Pakistan, fits into the narrative pushed by Indian media about possible surgical strikes. This concerning pattern appears as Pakistan seems to be overcoming its financial difficulties.
In the end, it’s crucial to identify who gains from this turmoil. There is strong reason to doubt whether what we’re seeing is truly terrorism or if it could more accurately be termed a false flag operation designed to divert attention from underlying problems and cater to specific interests.
