"Instead of being thankful, Shahid Afridi backstabbed us, no longer my friend" : Harbhajan Singh

[Mesozoic]

The help for Afridi was done knowing fully well that there is no peace on such fronts between Pakistan India - why this feigned surprise?

Yes they knew there was no peace but I really doubt they'd have expected Afridi to make these kind of remarks towards their PM and armed forces within a few weeks time.

 

[Abdullah719]

His comments are aimed at Indians and esp Hindus.

He said Hindus have smaller hearts?

Nope wrong. It maybe the biggest dispute that Pakistan wants to believe in but Indian stance is totally different. India has always been clear that no relationship, talks, ties or sports can resume with Pakistan unless cross border terrorism is stopped and Pakistan acts on its non state actors. And its not only current Modi govt, even Congress in the past also had same view but perhaps not as explicit. India has made it clear time and again in various international forums that cross border terrorism is the biggest and only issue between the two countries. Kashmir is Indian internal matter and after Aug 2019, its an Indian union territory managed by New Delhi. Just like we dont discuss about internal issues related to UP, Tamil Nadu or Maharastra with Pakistan, there is no question of discussing anything regarding Kashmir too.

The above is India's official stance. The rest of the fake bravados we see in twitter is just that.

Ok, but shouldn't there be a limit to "fake bravados".

When the same underlying rhetoric is observed repeatedly everywhere be it YouTube, FaceBook, Quora, PakPassion and every other platform on the internet and it's repeated by Retd Major to simpleton, then at some point one is forced to pause and wonder if it's really just fake bravado or a genuine widespread mindset. Especially when the voices countering such fake bravado are almost non-existent.

Yes! India as a huge nation of over 1.2 billion people will have a large number of trolls, far more than any other country. But should it not at the same time also have a large number of reasonable voices? Where are they?

Have they been made silence due to Modi-ji-cal correctness?

They are needed or else extremism will only increase on both sides of the border!

Topi walla dreams of Ghazwa-e-Hind and the one with Saffron color fantasies about Akhand Bharat.

Both are two sides of the same coin.

Lol at people here thinking they got "scared" of getting lynched by mobs and are "forced" to do this.

So basically they helped, and in return, they thought that Afridi's mouth will be shut for life and he won't say anything about their genocidal PM or the atrocities in Kashmir.

Wishful thinking on their part.

If there was anything to criticize, it was the 'chooza' comment for someone who was simply carrying out orders, but calling Modi a coward is what everyone's taking offense to

What ? Why would they think that ?

The issue is not Kashmir. Pakistani cricketers have been talking about Kashmir for decades but when was the last time anyone displayed this amount of sheer stupidity ?

If someone like a Gautam Gambhir comes out and abuses Imran khan , would Pakistanis and (Pak cricketers) shower him with compliments?

 

[Sirris]

Yes they knew there was no peace but I really doubt they'd have expected Afridi to make these kind of remarks towards their PM and armed forces within a few weeks time.

I think Yuvraj and Bhajji are well within their right to express their discontent.

However, the way they did it makes it look a bit artificially manufactured as if they were standing in front of a jury and had to use carefully thought out legalistic words.

I also think if any Indian cricketer would have insulted Imran Khan we'd have seen ugly responses by Pakistani side too.

What makes me skeptical is when someone wants Pakistani citizens to believe, that the only issue Indians (yes INDIANS, as in citizens of India, actual human beings and not the Indian state) have is the non-state actors and cross border terrorism supported by the Pakistani state. Such an obvious lie is almost an insult.

 

[Cpt. Rishwat]

LOL Bhajji and Yuvi were expecting anything else? If yes then they are fools of the highest order.

I agree they are fools of the highest order if they put their patriotism above their humanitarian instincts. They should understand that you can be both.

He seems to be even more delusional than Hamid. If Indians want Akhand Bharat, then why do they have to wait for the next generation to realise that dream? This is like admitting Indian army is a bunch of pussies.

Where is that Afghan guy @landofthebravepeople? This is the false hope the Indians are feeding you. All talk to make Afghans hate Pakistan, but they will never put boots on the ground to match their weasel words.

Yuvraj and Bhajji are no saints and playing to the gallery as well. Its not the first time Afridi has spoken against India or Indian army. Yet they decided to support his charity and asked fellow Indians to donate in it. Now once it backfired horribly, they are acting all apologetic.

Maybe, Maybe not.

When Bhajji and Yuvi answered Afridis call for support they got massive abuse in India.

Now after these comments by Afridi they got even more abuse because it blowed up again.

Basically Yuvi and Bhajji did nothing wrong, but they are forced to come in front of cameras to defend themselves and distance themselves from Afridi. To somehow put a stop to all the abuse.

Obviously as they are Indians they would not like someone abusing their armed forces and PM - that plays a part as well, but Bhajji and Yuvi gets a lot of abuse and asked why they helped Afridi in the first place.

Lastly I think this rant of Afridi will strengthen BJP and Modi even more.

If they helped out they helped out on humanity grounds and because they r friends with afridi

Now afridi has every right to criticise a PM who is opressing a state and its people

Bhajji and Yuvi are good people but they know if they dont go with their status quo they will get it in the ear Thats the new india where tolerence is low and where you cant have your own opinion anymore

Theyve got to live in this fascist country and they know on which side their bread is buttered

However in fascist countries you cannot do the former Just like in india

Ofcourse, away from public eye they might still be friends. Regardless, the point most people seem to miss is that Afridi's comment was insensitive.

Same people who get triggered when Arnab or other trolls call the surrender of 71 by insensitive names, are the ones who seem to be ignoring this obvious fact.

Now he has given fuel to the trolls, what happened? He lost on future donations which would have actually helped the people in need.

Now let's come back to my question, what's your views if the tables were reversed? Would you have been ok with Bhajji poking fun of your army and virtually calling them cowards while taking money from Afridi?

Kashmir is a disputed area. Except in India, this is common knowledge around the world.

A genuine question as I don't read much about India - Pakistan cringefest. Has Afridi ever been vocal about his country's treatment towards its own minorities or how the Chinese are handling it's Muslim community?

So? Thread is about Afridi and his comments.

Didnt Afridi donate 10,000 rupees to Yuvraj's foundation, obviously all that money would have been used in India and not just muslims so he doesnt have any hate towards Indian people, he hates the wrong doing fo the indian government.

If Afridi has self respect in him he should return the money paid by yuvraj & bhajji as both have commented against him so technically against kashmir issue & indirectly supporting modi's fascism (at least according to pakistan)

I know he won't as money is one way street in pakistan i.e.. as pakistan only takes donations/aid/loans but will not return it back.

paisey wapass kardho bhai !

Maybe, Maybe not.

When Bhajji and Yuvi answered Afridis call for support they got massive abuse in India.

Now after these comments by Afridi they got even more abuse because it blowed up again.

Basically Yuvi and Bhajji did nothing wrong, but they are forced to come in front of cameras to defend themselves and distance themselves from Afridi. To somehow put a stop to all the abuse.

Obviously as they are Indians they would not like someone abusing their armed forces and PM - that plays a part as well, but Bhajji and Yuvi gets a lot of abuse and asked why they helped Afridi in the first place.

Lastly I think this rant of Afridi will strengthen BJP and Modi even more.

You are not even making much of an effort to come across as an Afghan any more. What gives, is the Hinudtva siren call too potent to hide for any length of time?

Harbhajan - what an A grade clown! Behaving like a little girl being bullied in a class. Afridi is cleaning up these Indians even after retirement. Must be a hobby now

Afridi is betraying his frustration. Because there is nothing else pakistan can do. Only make noises.

Will Yuvraj also return the money, Afridi gave him? Doubt it
