Awesome. Since you know fully well, there's no need to discuss it further.


Correct.......we all know fully well that india is the one that is the occupation force.

Kashmir issue is more complex than what it is. Autonomy, Independence, merging with Pakistan - all three have different meanings. Given the motivation of people to join Pakistan shows the role of Pakistan in instigating protesters.

No..... its actually pretty simple and not as complex as you make it.......let the people vote and decide.....simple.

Masses are very easy to emotionally agitate them.

Your talking about the indians or the kashmirirs?

Anyways, I expect these protests to subside soon as people realize that they are not going to ruin their livelihoods and their economy for something that is not easy to achieve.

Well we have been sacrificing a lot in the last so many decades and we shall conitinue.

And lets not forget the Video set to Chris De Burgh's song 'Revolution' that was the 'anthem' for Kashmiri youth when the BBC report was compiled. The two videos above however contain actual video footage of protests;

These are some truly energetic protests..Cold water on Indian propoganda...Wait till headlines like ISI smuggling camera phones into Kashmir..hahaha...

On the serious note..somebody please help these poors with weapons..if the conflict has to be bloody then be it.. I truly wish those stones were grenades...Iranians never won the war against saddam by pelting stones and Kashmiris wont either..Better to die for freedom then breath slavery!

Every body is so interested in Kashmir only because they are Muslims first and then Pakistan has territorial ambitions.

I haven't seen even one Pakistani speaking about Kashmiri Pundits who also lost their homes because of religious terrorists. However they deny that it is neither of those mentioned above the reason for their obsession with Kashmir.

This is the bitter truth.

They wont talk about them as chest beating people of Pakistan over murders of "Few" Kashmiris supported so called "freedom fighter" to oust "thousands" of Kashmiri Pundits of valley. They never utter a word about them.. Hypocrisy at its best..

* JAWAHARLAL NEHRU

(Statement in the Indian Parliament, 12 February 1951).

* JAWAHARLAL NEHRU
(Amrita Bazar Patrika, Calcutta, 2 January 1952).
“If, after a proper plebiscite, the people of Kashmir said, ‘We do not want to be with India’, we are committed to accept that. We will accept it though it might pain us. We will not send any army against them. We will accept that, however hurt we might feel about it, we will change the Constitution, if necessary.”

* JAWAHARLAL NEHRU
(Statement in the Indian Parliament, 26 June 1952).
“I want to stress that it is only the people of Kashmir who can decide the future of Kashmir. It is not that we have merely said that to the United Nations and to the people of Kashmir; it is our conviction and one that is borne out by the policy that we have pursued, not only in Kashmir but every where.
“I started with the presumption that it is for the people of Kashmir to decide their own future. We will not compel them. In that sense, the people of Kashmir are sovereign.”

* JAWAHARLAL NEHRU
(Statement in Indian Parliament, 7 August 1952)

* JAWAHARLAL NEHRU
(The Statesman, 1 May 1953)

Some people think that it is their fundamental right to throw stones at security forces and no matter how they provoke or misbehave or mislead other people it is their right to pray and walk freely on streets..Fundamental right..lol.

Shoe thrown at Omar Abdullah at Independence Day function

Srinagar: A shoe was hurled at Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah, reportedly by an assistant sub-inspector, during the Independence Day function.

However, the shoe did not hit the Chief Minister.

Just as the Chief Minister was about to unfurl the flag, it came flying from behind the stands.
The man then raised black flags and shouted slogans as he was being bodily carried out by the security in the stands.

The Chief Minister however, was unfazed and said "throw shoes not stones."
