- bigDinosaur 4y agoMost people outside of India would be completely ignorant as to terrorism in India, so I wouldn't give their opinion much weight. I was pretty shocked that it was apparently common to have metal detectors at movie theatres, for example, at least in some cities - there's no real awareness of that outside of India/Indian diaspora as far as I know.
- saimiam 4y agoI’m old enough to remember when Indian terrorists used to call up journalists and editors and demand that they be referred to as militants.
