New Delhi: YouTuber Ranveer Allahbadia seems to have been embroiled yet again in a controversy.
Allahbadia was recently invited to The Piers Morgan Uncensored show, along with journalist Barkha Dutt, former Foreign Minister of Pakistan, Hina Khar, and Shehzad Ghias Shaikh, host of The Pakistan Experience podcast.
In the show, Allahbadia showed a picture of terrorist Osama Bin Laden and asserted that “This is the narrative the world should know.”
Calling Pakistan the “terror hub of the world”, he added that Laden, who led the 9/11 attack and the September 11 attacks, was found 800 meters from a military base in Pakistan. “That's the face that the world recognises,” he said about Laden.
Allahbadia then held up an image of the UN-designated terrorist Abdul Rauf, who is seen “being celebrated by the Pakistani military.”
"Rauf's face is the one that India recognises," Allahbadia added.
Furthermore, he emphasised that India’s recent strikes on Pakistan were “precision-oriented, moderate, and purely retaliatory.”
He further stated, “We export vaccines, philosophy, engineers, and leaders. That’s why our economy is 11 times larger than Pakistan’s.”
Finally, Allahbadia asked Morgan, “Piers, my question is to you. You've seen the objective facts and figures. What do you feel about this situation?”
But, instead of answering his question, Morgan reminded Allahbadia of his now-deleted post, in which he wrote, “Dear Pakistani Brothers & Sisters, I will get hate from many Indians for this, but it is important to be said. Just like many Indians, I don't have hate in my heart for you. Many of us want peace as well. Whenever we meet Pakistanis, you invariably welcome us with love. But...”
“Your country is not run by a government. It is run by your military and your secret service (The ISI). The average Pakistani is VERY different than these 2 bodies. The average Pakistani has dreams of peace & prosperity in their hearts. These 2 villains have hurt your economy since independence. They have also constantly been responsible for terrorist attacks in India.”
When asked by Morgan why he deleted the post, Allahbadia replied, “I deleted it because Pakistan had just broken the ceasefire and gave us another reason to not trust the entire state once again."
