Folkloristan @folkloristan.bsky.social · 07/05/2025We don’t need heads from DC. The sloppy statements coming in are not welcome. US policies have indirectly caused this escalation - now sit this one out. Pakistan will retaliate. It has too. Not retaliating = inviting more Indian aggression. 030

Reposted by FolkloristanZarah Sultana MP @zarahsultana.bsky.social · 06/05/2025I condemn the horrific terrorist attack in Pahalgam — but no conclusive evidence has been presented linking Pakistan. India’s unprovoked strike on Pakistan is a violation of international law. With both being nuclear powers, this is reckless & a grave threat to regional peace. 1025942
Folkloristan @folkloristan.bsky.social · 06/05/2025The last time the USA intervened in an India-Pakistan conflict was when they forced Pakistan to de-escalate, during Kargil, in 1999. That was 26 years ago. India and Pakistan have been in multiple conflicts since then. 020
