The US Embassy has openly stated that it is not in a position to evacuate or assist private US citizens, advising them to make their own arrangements. Think about that. This is the most powerful country in the world, refusing to evacuate its citizens from the soil of a strong ally, and yet there will be no public outrage, no social media theatrics, no performative victimhood. Now compare that with India. India has no direct stake in the conflict. It repeatedly advised its citizens to leave. Many ignored those warnings. Yet when the situation worsened, and airspace closed, India still scrambled resources, and worked to ensure their safety. And in return, it will still gets taunts, mockery, and political point-scoring. The same thankless voices who ignore advisories are usually the first to ridicule rescue efforts. This isn’t new, we saw the same during the Ukraine crisis.
