Summary of "Pahalgam attack - Jo mann kare so Pran de jo mann kare so Pran le"
The video draws a historical and global parallel between the spread of terrorism and the migration of people during famines, illustrating how violence and extremist groups move from one region to another when expelled or displaced. It traces examples from the 19th century anarchists in Europe, 20th century communists, the PLO’s expulsion from Jordan to Lebanon, Osama bin Laden’s movements from Saudi Arabia to Sudan and Afghanistan, and Jamaah Islamiyah’s displacement from Indonesia to Malaysia and the Philippines. The commentary emphasizes that terrorism often flows from stronger or more stable countries to weaker ones, similar to how waste is discarded from rich to poor areas.
The video also links the Afghan War’s end in 1988 to the redirection of unemployed mujahideen by Pakistan towards Kashmir, leading to significant violence such as the expulsion of Kashmiri Pandits in 1989. It compares the recent Pahalgam attack to Hamas attacks, suggesting a similar pattern of violence and retaliation, exemplified by Israel’s response after the October 7, 2023 Hamas attack.
The underlying theory referenced is the Opportunity Structure Theory, which posits that countries with weak centralized violence systems, slow judiciary processes, and poor criminal accountability become hotspots for criminal and terrorist activities. The video concludes by implying that strengthening these systems is crucial for peace.
