Muslims can exist peacefully only if they are in the minority.
Take India for instance, if you see regions where they are a lot, you start to see problems - internal strife, poverty etc., Examples, regions of northern Kerala, old Hyderabad ... and of course Kashmir. There are a lot of others.

A Muslim talks, behaves well and is very civilized when he/she is part of a larger non-Muslim group. However, their behaviour changes when there are a lot of Muslims in the group. I guess they just don't like it.

No hate. Just very relevant to the issue discussed here.

Actually it is the opposite: When hindus live in Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nepal, Malaysia, Singapore, US etc.. as a minority they live very peacefully, except in the case of Sri Lanka where they had the Tamil Hindu Suicide Bombers. But when they are in majority and especially tribes they fought a lot. There were maharajs fighting in India all the time. Plus when hindus are in majority they massacred sikhs, muslim in Gujrat, Muslims in Kashmir, Christians in India and claim to be peaceful. They always claim muslims are violent.

how long we need to watch bro?? it is already more than 60 yrs. by the way keep dreaming

It took Indians 90 years to gain independence from British. Freedom movements are not measured in years but in spirit. As long as Kashmiris have the spirit the movement shall continue. Lets wait and see who blinks first.

Kashmiri's don't have much to loose other than their lives while India has a lot more to loose. What if other doormant freedom movements gain inspiration from Kashmiri's then what?

bottomline is if u want kashmir, attack us, beat us and take it.

We will keep on injuring you with small cuts till you bleed to death. Understand.

Curfew re-imposed in Held Kashmir to prevent protests

* Protester injured during last week’s clashes dies in hospital

SRINAGAR: The police and the paramilitary forces on Monday re-imposed a curfew in Srinagar, the main town in the disputed region of Indian-held Kashmir, after the overnight death of a protester.

Shops and businesses had opened on Sunday for the first time in two weeks after the Muslim-majority Kashmir valley was brought to a standstill by violent protests and the deaths of scores of civilians.

The territory has been rocked by unrest since a teenage student was killed by a police tear-gas shell on June 11.

About 50 people have been killed as the security forces regularly opened fire to control the angry demonstrations triggered by each fatality.

Some 33 people — many of them young men or teenagers — have died in the last ten days, the deadliest phase of violence for two years. “We had to re-impose the curfew to prevent protests after the death of a protester,” said a police officer.

He said the victim, a Srinagar resident, was injured last week during clashes and died in a hospital late on Sunday. afp

Pakistan rejects India’s allegations on IHK unrest

ISLAMABAD: Pakistan on Monday rejected a statement made by Indian Home Minister P Chidambaram in which he had accused Pakistan of stoking violence in Indian-held Kashmir, saying India’s “contention is too simplistic and indeed delusive”. Foreign Office spokesman Abdul Basit said that by accusing Pakistan, India was not only insulting the indigenous and legitimate struggle of the people of IHK, but also depicted its lack of seriousness towards resolving the Kashmir dispute. The spokesman said, “Unless India musters the courage and acknowledges that the soul of self-determination can never be killed, its Kashmir policy will remain rudderless.” The spokesman added that Pakistan would continue extending diplomatic and moral support to the people of Kashmir until their legitimate aspirations are realised. app

can you tell me how will you justify killing in Baluchistan

they want freedom from Pakistan

what is your view on that freedom fight there from last 40 years

It people like you who bring in irrelevant topic to derail the actual subject under discussion.

Balochistan is not a disputed territory. stop ranting about it. Do we raise questions when your police or army kills people in Jharkand, Manipur, Assam, Punjab or Chatisgarh. We do not have an issue with what you do to your people and neither should you.

Since Kashmir is disputed and claimed by us and same recognized internationally we report and comment on it.

Oh Yeah.. The famous 1000 cuts.. But do you really believe that its India that is bleeding today? I mean economically, politically, image wise or even stability wise...

I was watching a rerun of disclosure yesterday and in the end, Michael Douglas tells Demi Moore, "Have you ever thought that may be I set you up". Made me think of India - Pakistan. Pakistan keeps of making such big bold statements of war of 1000 years.. Death by 1000 cuts.. Bleeding India to death and so on. But looks like the actual cuts are being made on Pakistan's body instead.

Rising Kashmir, Daily Newspaper, Srinagar Jammu and Kashmir - Govt to provide cash, drugs for injured

Abid Bashir
Srinagar, August 9: Ruling out the creation of a corpus fund for aiding the costly treatment of around 500 injured persons, the state government’s health ministry Monday revealed it has released Rs 45 lakh to ensure speedy recovery those recuperating in different state hospitals.
The government has sought help from volunteer citizens and asked people to form local bodies to reach out to the needy. “We don’t need to have separate corpus fund. We have adequate funds to meet the eventualities. But the citizens should come forward. Let there be committees who would apprise the government of what needs be done and where,” Health Minister Rajinder Singh Chib told Rising Kashmir.

“All hospitals have been directed to ensure best possible treatment to injured,” the minister said adding that the government had already sanctioned Rs 45 lakh for various hospitals to provide free medicine, food and other stuff to the patients as well as the attendants.

He, however, said there may be laxity in treating some patients because of the circumstances. “But majority of the patients don’t have any complaint as far as treatment and medicine is concerned,” he said.

Chib advocated formation of committees in each locality to be headed by senior citizens. “Let those committees visit hospitals and prepare a list of patients, who are not happy with the treatment. The committees should also apprise the government about the patients facing shortage,” he said.

The minister also urged the attendants and the general public to send their complaints on his e-mail — rschib1@yahoo.co.in.This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it “People should also suggest ways and means of how to make health care system people friendly,” he said.

Law and Parliamentary Affairs Minister Ali Muhammad Sagar said the government was ‘very serious’ as far the treatment of injured are concerned. “We have directed all medical superintendents to ensure best treatment to injured,” he said. “In case people face problems as far the treatment and medicine is concerned, they should apprise the government about the same.”

He hailed the NGOs that have started selling the medicines, which are out of stock in market, outside various hospitals.

As per the rough estimates, at least 500 injured are being treated in various hospitals of Srinagar with many of them still having the bullets in their bodies.

India is bleeding no doubt about that. Look at your problem of insurgency such as maoist rebels and kashmir. ethinic tensions between different religions. rise in hindu radicalism.

It is just that you have not yet seen the blood coming from these wounds or perhaps do not wish to see it.

Pakistani Kashmiris protest against 'Indian violence'

MUZAFFARABAD: Several hundred Pakistanis demonstrated on Tuesday to denounce violence in Indian-administered Kashmir, where unrest has surged since a student was killed by police tear-gas in June.

Since then about 50 people have been killed in the Indian-administered zone of the Muslim-majority region where security forces have regularly opened fire in recent weeks to control angry separatist demonstrations.

“If atrocities continue in Indian occupied Kashmir, we will cross the Line of Control to help our brethren,” Aziz Ahmed Ghazali, a refugee leader told the rally attended by more than 300 people.

The protesters marched to the UN military observers office in Muzaffarabad, the capital of Pakistan-administered Kashmir, and sat on the road, shouting “Indian go back,” “UN oh UN play your role” and “We want freedom.”

Ghazali accused the United Nations of taking no action on past resolutions protesting against Indian “atrocities” in Kashmir.

“The UN has become a dead horse and a maid of the United States,” he said.

Abu Ali, a leader in Pakistan's banned charity Jamaat-ud-Dawa, said they would stand by Kashmiri people in their struggle for independence.

Jamaat-ud-Dawa is linked to the 2008 Mumbai attacks, which left 166 people dead and was blamed by New Delhi on Pakistani militants. The carnage derailed a slow-moving peace process between India and Pakistan.

“Unarmed Kashmiris are being killed in Kashmir, while our rulers are on foreign visits,” Ali said, referring to the controversial visit of President Asif Ali Zardari to Britain and France despite massive floods in Pakistan. – AFP
