You don't have to by that time. The developments in battery technology is impacting oil sales. The increasing costs of extracting crude and lower cost of renewal energy is going to weaken the middle eastern countries and their support for radical Islam.

Soldiers in Kashmir fear they are ‘effectively becoming army of occupation’: BBC Report
Kashmir LifePosted on:
Saturday, June 3rd, 2017
Srinagar

Quoting Indian army sources a report in BBC has revealed that many army soldiers fear that they are effectively becoming an “army of occupation” in Kashmir.

The report titled as “Why Indian army defended Kashmir ‘human shield’ officer” appeared in BBC.com on May 31.

Indian army sources have told the BBC that morale among soldiers stationed in the valley is very low. Many army soldiers are becoming increasingly uncomfortable with their role in Kashmir, saying they fear they are effectively becoming an army of occupation, says the report.


The report puts in perspective the controversy surrounding the awarding the army major who committed the act of tying a Kashmiri to the front of army jeep and paraded him through many villages of Beerwah area of central Kashmir.

“Major Gogoi says he decided to tie Mr Dar to the jeep in a “fraction of a moment” and subsequently claimed it saved 12 lives. Despite the length of Mr Dar’s ordeal, he argues it created “a window to move out of the area safely”, the report says.

Indian Army Chief on May 28 said backed the act of using a civilian as human shield and termed it as “innovative” saying the Army is fighting a “dirty war” in Kashmir. He said the commendation for major has a purpose of boosting the morale of soldiers.

“We are fighting a legacy of political betrayal, infiltration, rigging in local elections, cynical politics, bad governance, vested interests, religion and regional divides,” one senior army officer in Kashmir told my colleague, Soutik Biswas, a few weeks ago, the report said.



The report further says that many Kashmiris fear that conflict in Kashmir will worsen. “They say that the award of the medal to Major Gogoi has deepened opposition to Indian rule and to the presence of the army,” the report says.

On the issue of worsening conflict , the report quotes Gen Rawat saying “In fact,” he told journalists, “I wish these people, instead of throwing stones at us, were firing weapons at us. Then I would have been happy. Then I could do what I [want to do].”

The report terms General’s views as “extraordinary sentiment” and says it is “a measure of just how difficult India is finding it to keep order in its most restive province”.

“His worry is that Kashmiris are losing their fear of his troops. If that happens, he says, the country is doomed,” the report adds.

The report concludes with a quote from Army chief saying, “Adversaries must be afraid of you and at the same time your people must be afraid of you,” says Gen Rawat. “We are a friendly army, but when we are called to restore law and order, people have to be afraid of us.”

What a fukin moronic article written by some Hurriyat apologist and publishing it in the BBC. Or probably the ISI's handiwork. The army's morale has never been higher and this clown of a journalist says its 'very low'!!! Lol!

And the Hurriyat are getting screwed, funding will soon stop and militancy and stone throwing will reduce considerably. Without money, these mercenaries will be up shit creek without a paddle.

Soldiers killed in action are not martyrs. ‘Martyr’ has religious overtones, writes Karan Thapar

http://www.hindustantimes.com/colum...s-overtones/story-Fs84kHSrSBDEckwKVL8npN.html


A martyr seeks to die. Soldiers want to live, their commitment to the cause they’re fighting for and their determination to prevail is even greater




A soldier pays tribute to his colleague during his funeral, Kulgam, Srinagar, Jammu & Kashmir, May 10, 2017(Waseem Andrabi/HT )

I have a problem with calling soldiers killed in action martyrs. I know it’s meant as respect and I’m well aware it’s intended as an honour, but that still doesn’t address my key concern which is that the term is singularly inappropriate. I’m not sure I can convince you but I’d like you to think carefully about my argument.

First of all, the term martyr has clear and undisputed religious overtones. Traditionally and historically it’s used for those who are killed defending their faith. Each of the great faiths has its own list of honoured martyrs. In each case it was refusal to renounce their faith that led to the sacrifice of their lives.

This unavoidable religious association is, I believe, inappropriate for a man in uniform and, particularly, for an Indian Army soldier. Remember ours is a military force that defends a secular State. Its cause is constitutional not religious. And secularism is one of the key principles of our Constitution and, therefore, of our nationally accepted political identity.

However, this is only my lesser concern. The bigger one has to do with the way martyrs traditionally approach and accept death. I’d like you to follow this part of the argument with particular attention.

A martyr seeks to die. You could even say he wants to die because he’s deliberately chosen a path that will lead inevitably and irrevocably to death. This is not simple suicide but the defiant embrace of death in defence of the faith he values more than life. And this seeking of death is intrinsic to martyrdom. It defines the martyr.

In contrast, soldiers do not want to die. They don’t seek death. That is not their intention. Their aim is to vanquish the enemy but emerge victorious and alive.

A soldier may lay down his life in defence of his country but that wasn’t what he wanted. It certainly wasn’t what he sought. He has a wife and children he wanted to return to. A mother and father he wished to see again. A life he hoped to live to the full. At no point was he seeking death.

Now don’t misunderstand me. I’m not devaluing soldiers or their commitment. I’m just correcting a misunderstanding. In fact, I would go one step further. I would say that because soldiers want to live, their commitment to the cause they’re fighting for and their determination to prevail is even greater.

So let me reiterate in simple terms: A soldier may be prepared to die to secure victory but that doesn’t mean he wants to. He wants to live to enjoy his success. That’s what sets him apart from a martyr.

This is not a small difference. It’s not one of interpretation or use of language. It’s not etymological. It has to do with understanding the role and thinking of a soldier. You could, therefore, call it philosophical. That’s why it’s important.

Finally, if it’s misleading and, therefore, wrong to call soldiers killed in action martyrs what term do we have that fits better and still honours the sacrifice they’ve made? Because there’s no doubt they’ve made an enormous sacrifice. The biggest any human being can.

I’m afraid I don’t have an answer. Instead, what comes to my mind is the epitaph on the Kohima War Memorial, derived from the words of the English poet John Edmonds: “When you go home, tell them of us and say, for your tomorrow we gave our today.”

The views expressed are personal

India rejects Pakistan's claim of killing 5 Indian soldiers along the LoC

TIMES NEWS NETWORK




India on Saturday categorically rejected Pakistan's claims of having killed five Indian soldiers in the Tatta PaniKrishna Ghati sector, even as the two armies continued to exchange heavy cross-border firing along the volatile Line of Control.


Senior Army officers dubbed as “completely false“ the Pakistan Army's statement made in the afternoon that it had “violently responded“ to “unprovoked ceasefire violation at Tatta Pani along the LoC“, which is faced by the Krishna Ghati sector on the Indian side, to kill five Indian soldiers and injure many others while “destroying Indian bunkers“.

“There has been no casualty on our side. Two civilians, including a woman, however sustained injuries in the ceasefire violation by Pakistan, which began at11pm on Friday and continued till Saturday afternoon. We strongly reacted to it,“ said an officer.

Pakistan's latest claim on Saturday came in the backdrop of wide-spread reports, though unverified, that five of its soldiers were killed and six injured in “retaliatory fire assaults“ by the Indian Army across the Poonch and Naushera sectors along the LoC last Thursday , as was then reported by TOI.

The entire 778km LoC has turned red-hot after the beheading of two Indian soldiers in the Krishna Ghati sector on May 1, with India making its intent loud and clear of “pro-actively dominating“ the contested border by destroying Pakistan Army posts aiding infiltration of militants.

Indian Army's “targeted fire assaults“ have been particularly intense in the Uri, Poonch, Krishna Ghati, Rajouri and Naushera sectors as part of the overall counter-terrorism strategy , which have led to several casualties in the ranks of the Pakistan Army .

Army chief General Bipin Rawat on Saturday also visited some battalions deployed along the LoC in North Kashmir, in a move that comes soon after the entire top brass of the 1.3-million force held a brain-storming session at Srinagar on Thursday and Friday to review the operational situation and military readiness along the western front.

“During his visit on Saturday , Gen Rawat was briefed on all aspects of operational and logistical preparedness. He was appreciative of the measures put in place to meet any challenge posed by elements inimical to national security and complimented the troops for the recent successful counter infiltration operations that had delivered a major blow to the adversary ,“ said an officer.

“Exhorting all soldiers deployed in the Valley to continue utmost vigil and operational focus, Gen Rawat reassured them of the entire nation's support for their endeavours. He said that it was a privilege for every soldier to be entrusted with the safety , security and integrity of his country and that we must always be prepared to live up to that trust and confidence,“ he added.

This ISPR knucklehead General Goofy Gafoor has this habit of spewing crap all over the place at the drop of a hat. These buggers have this inveterate habit of lying through their frikkin teeth. Nothing new for the pussy Islamic Army of Porkistan.

These falsehoods are clearly being dished out at regular intervals by their propaganda machine, the ISPR, to try and maintain the sagging morale of the Porki gang bang army who are getting a huge pasting from the Indian Army.

It is also true that no soldier/sailor/airman wants to die and neither is that expected by their superiors.

So, what is an appropriate word to use?
They may or may want to die, but they are willing to die, ready to die should the need arise. I believe that restricting the term to a strictly theological context is disingenuous on the part of Thappar.
