Pakistan failed to kill terrorists, so India had to, says Adnan Sami on 'surgical strike'

Pakistan failed to kill terrorists, so India had to, says Adnan Sami on 'surgical strike'

The singer insists India had to forcefully make its way into Pakistan to kill the terrorists because Pakistan couldn't
04 Oct, 2016

Ex-Pakistani citizen, Adnan Sami has a lot to say regarding the current Pak-India situation, regardless of how far he throws himself in the deep end of the pool.

Creating more heat than he did previously when he tweeted thanks to PM Narendra Modi and the Indian Army, Sami has now reportedly said that "Pakistan should thank India for killing the terrorists" in the 'surgical strike'.

At the India Today Safaigiri Awards the singer drew parallels between garbage and terrorism to explain his point. He said, "If I see garbage flowing from my neighbour's house and entering my house, I will complain against it to my neighbour. However, if the neighbour fails to do that, I will enter his house and clean the garbage myself, because you couldn't clean the garbage, I had to enter your house and clean it."

He further added, "For years, Pakistan has been saying that they too are victims of terrorism. Here, when your neighbour is helping you out, you don’t want to even acknowledge it.”

Urging Pakistan to join hands with India, he said, "Eliminate it (terrorism). If you won't do it alone, let us do it together so that we and our children can live in this world in peace. That is it. There is nothing more to it. It is as simple as that. Why are you taking this personally? You yourself know there are suicide bombers who blast themselves in mosques, so if someone is helping you eliminate it, you should be thankful."

Sami's tweets earlier had hurt the sentiments of Pakistanis, the singer explained that they were not targeted towards Pakistan. “I never said a word against Pakistan."

“My tweets were against a common enemy. An enemy that has been hurting both the nations and the rest of the world, too. If anything, Pakistan should thank India for finishing the terrorists."

On the flak he received for his tweet, he argued that terrorists don't belong to any side of the border. "The tweet came out of my heart and I pardon those who criticised me. They interpreted it in their own way and that’s why I wrote that they see Pakistan and terrorists as the same."

"It is not important where the strike took place, but why it took place. This is a strike to eliminate terror camps, be it on any side of the border. Terrorism doesn't have a border. Terrorists attack Mumbai, Peshawar and also Paris."

The 43-year-old stressed that in times like these everybody wants peace and not just artistes.

"People say that artists always want peace, they call them the messengers of peace and so on and so forth. Although it is true, I don't think artistes are the only ones who should get this 'beautiful credit'. I think all our citizens want peace, not just artists."

His father remained a roaring lion for Pakistan and served as Pakistan's ambassador. He died in 2009 in the Mumbai. His father was given full protocol with 21 gun salute. Something is terribly wrong.

@Old Ravian : Economic reasons apart, Adnan probably took an emotional decision, answerable to his conscience. In fact, he is on record saying that he took the decision when he spent a couple of weeks in Goa. He was born in London and spent several years there, could well have become a citizen of the UK. His decision to take up Indian citizenship by no means implies that it is a decision taken against Pakistan.

Absolutely right. The more he speaks the more he sinks. The least he could have done would have been to be silent. But no, he had to prove that he was more loyal (to India) than the king (India) himself. Shameless to the nth degree. Reminds me of what a top UK spy said after fleeing to the USSR. "I did not betray, to betray you must first belong, I never belonged". And that is Sami's sad story.

So going by Adnan Sami's logic it is okay for Bangladesh, China or Pakistan to attack within India as long as it is killing terrorists (+ 2 Army soldiers) and expect indians to love it. Sorry but that is not how things work in this world.

Sure both India and Pakistan need to cooperate to rid the region of terrorists. Absolutely Pakistan is overwhelmed with the surge of terrorist activities. Now that all Afghani refugees have been sent back, I think Pakistan can better manage the areas who are hostile. However, the key word here is cooperate. The surgical strike was not done with cooperation and teamwork in mind. We need to seriously join hands and put efforts towards a stable and strong region. It may cost us both the releasing of Kashmir. So be it. After all these years fighting and getting nowhere...let them be their own masters. So these two countries can focus on the future.

Instead of blaming Mr. Adnan Sami, Pakistan should do introspection on why son of a decorated Pakistani soldier became Indian citizen. An honest introspection. It must be extremely difficult for Mr. Sami, still he took that decision. You have a habit to blame others and sulk but never to introspect why. His statement isn't wrong.

Does that mean that now pakistan also has the legal right to bomb indian terrorist launchpads in afghanistan, including its consulates? After all if we start bending and twisting international rules to suit our own needs by introducing concepts like surgical strikes, drone strikes, preemptive strikes, this would lead to a very ugly mutation in international rules and norms. But still, if these ugly mutations are the way to go, i'd love to see indian terrorist infrastructure bombed in afghanistan.

It is not easy to kill the terrorists. The U.S. plus its European Allies with all their financial and technological supremacy have not been able to do so over the past 15 years in Afghanistan. So it is a bit naive to expect Pakistan or Indian to solve this rather complex issue with a one-night operation.

I sort of enjoyed reading different comments more than the news, it is reassuring to see not much has changed, both sides are committed to their views. First of all, Adnan is entitled to his views, we must all respect that. Secondly, matters of politics and national interest are in the hands of people who play dirty on both sides. So there is no victim in this, Neither Pakistan, nor India (yes all you innocent people, learn to accept the real truth). My heart goes out to simple soldiers dying on both sides, for fake causes and less than heroic objectives. Its a sad day for humanity.
