Thanks Patrician, and I agree with what you say. I have touched on a few posts back that India finds itself in a bind like no other. There is also the tug and pull from the Security Forces as they believe relinquishing AFSPA could be a mistake. What I'm critical of is that there doesn't seem...

Because: 1) This isn't 1947 2) A plebiscite takes into consideration the entire region of Kashmir - and there are regions (Leh, Ladakh, Jammu etc) that have no real desire to be with Pakistan 3) China controls a part of that original region - doubtful whether they'd relinquish that...

No it's not.

And as I have said countless times, what will a 'diplomatic offensive' achieve? Don't the OIC have TV's or read the press reports? How loudly is the P5 speaking out? How loudly have the EU spoken out in the past 2 months? Nothing, zilch. India whether we like it or not has the clout to tell...

You're still missing the point. It has come out and said it stands with Kashmiri's, SMQ has come out with condemnation and uttered the resolution in accordance with UN resolutions etc etc. And it can visit every capital of the OIC and raise what it likes at the UN, but that won't change...

Well then it's pointless isn't it? Try to understand that raising this at such international fora has been done to death by us. Then try to sit back and ask 'what did or has it achieved?' What impact will it make? The US spoke up yesterday, sure it did. But that was in response to church...

Omar, Pakistan has been speaking up for Kashmiri's, and was doing so when things were even worse. But the question you and everyone else needs to ask is: Has it helped find a solution to the problems? The answer is no. This has gone beyond speaking up. It's now about solutions, but we're...

I'm afraid you're mislead if you think this will get you anywhere. The UN will do nothing, because the P5 don't have a desire to get involved. And what is the OIC? If they can't close ranks and be effective when it comes to Palestine then you can forget Kashmir. They're a pointless and...

:hitwall::hitwall::hitwall: No, no and no.

Why do you make it sound so simple? The notion that a plebiscite is going to be held WILL NEVER HAPPEN. Get over it and deal with the situation as it stands. The issues lie predominantly in the Valley. It's not about Kashmir as a whole. A solution must be found there, but that means less...
