I managed to read the paragraph titled 'Is Kashmir a bilateral dispute between India and Pakistan?' and I immediately lost any interest in this thread.
As @Joe Shearer said, the Chinese members do what they do, out of their sense of obligation to their BFFs. In matters related to...
Nope. Try again.

It is amusing, though, how you are completely avoiding to acknowledge the Government document, that unambiguously declares Sikhs and Buddhists as minorities, and...
No you didn’t.
Don’t know what you mean by P.15. If it is a reference to the page number of the verdict, then I am not sure if a 9-page document can have a 15th page.
I had one of my friends forward to me the soft copy of the verdict. I will post it later. Before that I want to see just how...
Contrary to what you believe, or wish, Article 25-30 are meant to provide constitutional safeguard to the minorites. This has been explained in brief by @Joe Shearer.
As evidence to your claim that 'Sikhs, Buddhists and Jains are not given a separate religious status through application of...
The demand for Muslim reservation came from the salariat class who feared the predominance of Hindus will wipe them clean, not the landlords. The landlords etc. joined the bandwagon later on. Even when they joined, their agenda aside, the core objective behind the demand for Muslim reservation...
You do realise that the whole demand for Pakistan came out of this delusional search for Muslim parity with Hindus?
Jinnah had 'hoped' for one thing and then did just the opposite.
If he had really hoped for a relationship akin to 'Canadian-US' relationship, he probably wouldn't have, among...
Just the other day I made a clarification about this incidence, but since I challenged the infinite wisdom of a mod, he felt it would be wise to close the thread down.
Anyway, here it is again.
Below is the speech by Mrs Vijay Laxmi Pandit, at the UN:
Mr. Zafarulla Khan has once again...
He is more Indian than Bangladeshi. He became what he became, here in India, having spent most of his life here.
He was Bangladeshi for a mere 4 years of his life.
That is unadulterated horse manure.
Below is the speech of Mrs Pandit, representative of India, at the UN, on the same issue:
Mr. Zafarulla Khan has once again raised the question of canal waters. What are the facts? There were sixteen canal systems in the undivided Punjab; after...
Another BULL$HIT.
The impatient Pakistanis sent their cannon fodders, I mean, the Pathan tribals into the sovereign Princely State of Kashmir which lead to the Dogra King opting for India.
Pakistan. To be more accurate Jinnah.
It is still BULL$HIT. And please, do not project your ignorance on everyone else.
Mountbatten signed the documents relating to transfer of power to Pakistan, on 14th Aug, 1947. But the documents came into force on 15th Aug, 1947 in accordance to sec 1(1) of The Indian Independence Act, 1947...
So, the Uighur issue is purely ethnic, although the Uighurs and the Chinese govt. themselves call it religious.
However, the LTTE issue is religious, although the Tamils and Sinhalese themselves call it ethnic.
Well thats confirmation bias for you, anything that appears to confirm your bias is considered truth. Sure sign of vacuous mind.
Not sure if the Hindus, the Christians, the Sikhs, the Shias share your sense of relief. Or agree with you.
