In the aftermath of Feb 26th, Pakistan claims only a lot of trees were felled (ecoterrorism- https://propakistani.pk/2019/03/01/pakistan-to-lodge-complaint-against-indian-eco-terrorism-with-un); the fact is these trees were felled along with the deadly terrorist camps they were harbouring.
Listen to how some brilliant personality was inspired by this scenario:
Me: Bhai, why have you got the tree outside my house cut and destroyed?
Neighbour: In your own interest, bhaisaab.
Me: How’s that? (The branches of the tree in question were coming inside my house, providing much-needed shade, greenery plus the sweet chirping of birds).
Neighbour: Look, it brings snakes also (there was a snake which had come last year, providing some cause for concern to my neighbours. I was however nonchalant- it went back after some time)
Me: But the other trees (including outside and inside your own house) are intact. Snakes don’t come there?
Neighbour: Look, this is a selective surgical strike (I was away from home when the assault on the tree happened)
Me: Hmmmmmm, I understand, but bhai, trees give us shade and cool.
Neighbour: Look, trees also harbor terrorists (for eg. snakes).Look what happened in Pakistan? I am acting in national interest.
Me: I get your point, saab. Jai Hind! (aur kya boloon?)
Jai Ho ! Ecoterrorism on this side of the border!
