air lift

Air lift is an up lifting and positive movie, it is about the biggest air lift in history. 170,000 Indians were rescued/airlifted during Kuwait war.  Felt very sad. Indian! I am lucky to have a stable country, I am lucky to be an Indian. What about people who dont have a country? Who will help them? Yaziddis and kurds :(  Country is such an artificial construct, nobody knew each other those 170,000 they stuck together because they were Indians. But what is an Indian? So many of those were in Kuwait for so long, They considered themselves Kuwaiti. The movie makes a case for Indian patriotism, but What is Indian? One day they were Indians and now they are Pakisthan.
It drives home the point, make alliances, form groups tribes, It is important. In this world it makes a difference. We are all NOT ONE :-( It made me very sad.
Help your family. what about those who dont have family? Orphans :-(
