Irfan Junejo Defends his Position on Kashmir
Posted by AROOJ AHMED
Irfan Junejo is in hot waters these days. The people are well aware of the controversy that has erupted after his statement regarding the Kashmir issue. The popular YouTuber was criticized when he said that he does not intend to share any views on the Kashmir issue. After his statement became public, the fan following was considerably reduced. The hate message was in the air from his regular followers. Smelling something fishy around him he chose to come up with a new video to defend his stance and tell the world what is the real side of the story. In the opening part of the video he very clearly narrated that he does not intend to discuss Kashmir in the video, instead, he wants to stop the people who are bashing him without knowing the real side of the story.
In his opening remarks, he stated that by no means he wants to say that the Kashmir problem is something insignificant. It is an equally important issue just like there are other similar issues. He showed his grief n the recent happenings in the Kashmir. Being a human being with a sensitive soul, he can feel the pain in the eyes of the poor Kashmiris who are ruthlessly being killed. Besides the intensity of the problem he still wants to discuss the real theme of the video, he has uploaded.
Irfan junejo after coming to the point said that his social media pages are filled with the messages that he would call harassment. People are passing indecent comments and forcing him to come up with a video about the Kashmir. He made it clear that no matter what these people say he by no means will create any such video. Irfan junejo added that he wants to stay away from the political and religious controversies. If he did not do anything for the martyrs of Hazara, missing Shia people, and similar then he will not make anything on Kashmir too.

You may cancel me if you want to but I will NOT make a video about whatever is happening in Kashmir. NOT because I support the oppressors or I am afraid of losing Indian followers but because I also didn't make a video when Quetta Hazaras were protesting with the dead bodies…

of their family members. I didn't make a video when families of shia missing persons were protesting. If I don't make a video about something, it doesn't mean I support it. I didn't make a video for Sudan as well. Oh and btw Wasim Akram didn't talk about it,

MKBHD never made a video about Trump policies, UK YouTubers didn't make videos on Brexit. If somebody is talking about this, good for them.
Ajeeb apne andar sab activist banay hue hain!

Toh scenes kuch aesay hein keh Irfan Junejo can make a video on the protests happened after the release of Asia Bibi (tbh I loved that video) but he won't make a video on the Genocide happening in Kashmir just because YouTube will delete his channel.

Never thought Irfan Junejo to talk about Kashmir until he himself tweeted about it. I can understand it’s a personal choice to take up the voices but when he did, he shouldn’t have to be this stupid to amalgamate two entirely different issues. People won’t be able to forget this!

i have to say, if you have a voice, better raise it. mehwish hayat did it, hasan minhaj did it, i think irfan junejo could've done it as well. if it's all because of the number's game, he'll lose the game. even if he'd lose his account, he'd get double the support for a new one.

Pakistanis should unfollow Irfan Junejo on every platform so he can rest in peace with his Indian followers. The fear of losing followers by talking on Kashmir issue must be handed over to him by losing a considerable number of Pakistani followers in one day.

It's not about the issue it is just Irfan junejo's personality.
He's an ego-istic guy who just wanna do things on his own terms.
Which i don't know is good or bad.But when its an issue like Kashmir this is not what is expected from you and you have to put your ego behind

Irfan junejo, the one who stays neutral in the situation of oppression, he actually stands with oppressor

Irfan Junejo is next level hypocrite. Justifying his hypocrisy with lame logic.

The post Irfan Junejo Defends his Position on Kashmir first appeared on Web.pk.Irfan Junejo , hypocrisy will never make you acceptable to everyone .
So instead be straight forward and say it loud that you don't wanna lose your indian subscriber's and that's why raising voice for Kashmiri's isn't important for you .— Zain Shamim Jalali (@ZainJalali) August 17, 2019
