Thank you for tagging me with this interesting question. Let me give it a thought and I will reply you by pm.Tell me something, Neo.
You're one of the more rational posters on the other forum from your country and that is why I seek to ask you this.
Why does Pakistan in general have this tendency to feel that they owe something to religion so seriously? Why is Islam the lifeline of Pakistan so much more than Arabs, Turks, Iranians, Somalis, Sudanis, Maldivians and even Bangladeshis? These are also Muslim nations but don't share the same stakeholdership in religion that you have.
None of these countries mention even remotely anything if say, Russian forces kill chechen separatists, or Chinese kill terrorists in Xinjiang or we kill terrorists in J&K. Maybe they say some stuff about US but not officially and not by government ministers. Maybe some cleric would say it. That's it.
But why is it that Pakistan finds it obligatory to target every country which has a problem with islamist separatists?
Of course for strategic reasons you remain mum on China's clamp-down, but you raise the issue for all other nations. What makes you guys feel this is obligatory?
What does this religiosity and the whole psyche of defending Islam be so prominent in Pakistanis? None in the Islamic countries' groups see you as the defender of your religion. I don't know about your problems with Christians but the world has a lot more than these two religions and no one is going out of their way (other than west) to come to your nations and assault you.
I ask you this as a Buddhist of Vajrayana school of thought. I am the same guy with the same name on PDF and we have interacted a lot over there.
If you could just answer this psyche of stakeholdership of a religion and its tendency without feeling the need to engage in personal attacks.
Thanks.
