Exactly like that, if a dream was let to come true for once.
Until then, could they just not suppress the bad stuff for news at noon, so we at least were let to live in a pink, happy ignorance for just a wee while ?
So how would one get control of them, and where do they enrol people for use in their actions?
India and Pakistan are two powerful countries. A Afghanistan is not really likely in Pakistan, and if the two nations could work together (many bridges to cross, I know) the area would boom itself up the scale in a way we've never seen before.
I spend many hours in solitude (check my presence on-line, I tell you ...)
Reading the ordinary papers, news and channels often makes me feel a buzz in my head, gloomy days and people staring back at me with only despair as a message.
But each time I turn my focus south, the tune change, there on the other side of the water they seem to be looking for the good stuff to bring a little sun to the garden.
Then I found this news-site, and it was confirmed - they may not be better off then us up here, but how they see their day in spite of all madness around them, impresses me.
I think the Taliban were moving in that direction no matter what.
But your question is justified - how to get locals to rise up against that challenge, that is the pressing issue.
When you ask them, they will answer "but how, we have nothing to put against it!”
Then someone finally sends those troops and muscles. What happens then? Well, we know too well what happened. Look at your own words…
In the end the reaction becomes: "Who gives a f*ck?"
What would you rather see done? Reinstate of the Taliban rule in Afghanistan and let them be the energy source for a huge amount of aggressions towards peaceful groups, or finally getting Pakistan AND India's governments down at the table and make it a common cause to fight off these oppressing groups together?
The attacks on Indian soil lately were not performed by the Pakistan state, for sure. So who did?
South Africa, a country with its own share of let-downs and disappointments, have a news portal called "The Good News".
Now, how about having one of those for each country, so we can get a respite now and then from reading all the sulky, grey and depressing news we get fed today.
Maybe it would even calm down one or two to know that some things are actually upward in this life?
Too much Bad News? Then, check this!
I watch the Romanian scandal news at 17, because then I know they will compile the worst of the worst.I would likewise follow a program at a set hour where they had the best of the best.
