No proof it was a false flag. This is nonsense, and worse, it is despicable, insensitive nonsense. Lashkar e Toiba is a Pakistani terrorist group. Ajmal Kasab (one of the terrorists in the 2008 Mumbai attacks) had a relative who fought in the Afghanistan as a Mujahideen, and he was trained in similar camps in Pakistan. Bin Laden was found near a Pakistani military academy. David Headley claimed the Pakistani intelligence agency was involved in the Mumbai attacks. The attack in Pahalgam was evidently done by Pakistan, as it doesn't fit the pattern of indigenous Kashmiri militants. Even in the height of militancy, tourists were not targeted as it alienated the business class and local Kashmiris reliant on tourism. This was an implicit agreement. What's more, Kashmiris came out in huge numbers condemning terrorism for the first time on the streets. You show your ignorance again.
India claims to have hit terrorist bases. Pakistani media has already started spreading fake news. It's best to wait it out as propaganda and emotionally charged lies meant to provoke both sides will start pouring in. So stop spreading lies.
So, an organization not affiliated to the government broke the law and that gives India the right to break treaties and start military aggressions against that government?
according to the Rules Based International Order (tm) yes
Just like USA attacked stronghold of Osama Bin Laden which was in a country far far away (can't remember which country), India is just sorting out known terrorist training camps in its neighbourhood.
I suppose it was equally illegal for USA to kill Osama in (can't remember which country).
Exactly. So it's still not justified
It is justified. Another matter that the justification doesn't respect sovereignity of Pakistan - just like Pakistan army doesn't respect its democracy.
Did you read what I wrote? Pakistan has covertly supported terrorism. Pakistan did not share intelligence with India during the Mumbai attack. Independent intelligence from other countries confirmed Pakistan's role in the attacks.
India did not target any Pakistani military sites. It claims to have targeted LeT and Jaish e Mohammed bases. Pakistan still shields many internationally recognised terrorists.
You're naive if you think Pakistan is 'governed'. It is a military masquerading as a government. Again, read. Maybe look up the Mumbai attacks and Pakistan's role in them. Look up how Hizbul Mujahideen foiled indigenous Kashmiri militant groups like the JKLF and ratted them out to the Indian army because they weren't loyal enough to Pakistan. It's an inter imperialist conflict. Class war doesn't play out on the country level. I don't support war, or warmongering.
So you're from lndia or Pakistan ??
Why do you think Pakistan had something to do with it? You have provided no evidence. India has been occupying and surpressing Kashmir for decades. You really think those Kashimiris have no reason to get radicalized?
Are you from Pakistan ?
Are you from India?
I am
Great can you tell Modi to stop occupying Kashmir.
Where are you from ??
I think you need a good read of this.

Where is the evidence that Pakistan was behind the Kashmir attack it is not in there.
