Wars are chaotic. Wars are messy. And wars never end. Ideas end, beliefs end. Enemies change, and so do we. What is essential, is to not lose our essence under the pretext of war. Getting overwhelmed never helps. Stop. Look around. Ask yourself. Who is the real enemy? Citizens of a nation, who themselves question their leaders, or the leaders, who seem to be only following the orders of a larger threat? Pakistan or India isn't our enemy. Islam or Hinduism isn't our enemy. Pakistani artists earning money in Hindustan aren't our enemy. Indian artists producing Ek Tha Tiger or Agent Vinod aren't our enemies. How pointless it sounds, to differentiate south Asian art into Indian and Pakistani, seeing as the 'desi' is incomplete without either. Wars are confusing. Wars are manipulative. Wars are passionate too, to the point of depriving us of our ability to question. Think for yourself. The real enemy is he who turns brothers into enemies, turns protectors into murderers. The real enemy is who suppresses the seemingly powerful to unleash violence, the real enemy is who won't go into open battle, but claims lives through cowardly attacks on innocent civilians. Indian or Pakistani, Hindu or Muslim, today, you and I have one enemy, one nemesis - Terrorism.
