There are media reports saying that the two heroes are destroying Indian
military infrastructure. The voiceover in the clip can however be heard as
saying that Superman and Wonder Woman destroy 'every piece of military
equipment 'declaring 'an arms-free zone'. There is no apparent mention of
India or Pakistan but Kashmir can be heard as being regarded a 'disputed'
territory.
The viewers are not happy.
"Why are they so specific about Kashmir? First they refer to an imaginary
place like m'gota, but the next moment they mention Kashmir. Its better to
keep quiet about complex geopolitical affairs that they don't know anything
about..." says a Twitter user.
"USA (is) only strong in animation movie" says another.
Some Twitter users have poked fun at Superman and USA's war on terror in
Afghanistan that met a disastrous end in August this year.
"How about superman, Wonderwoman & DC doing something about Afghanistan"
reads a comment
"What a mess.. Superman couldn't save Afghanistan.. Went home defeated," reads
another.
Some comments says that Superman and Wonder Woman are seen destroying a
specific type of fighter jet that neither India nor Pakistan possesses.
