You mean all the 'sacrifices' in maintaining an occupation of disputed territory and reneging on your nation's commitment to allowing the kashmiris to determine their future.
It's a rather distasteful argument - sort of like Hitler trying to defend his atrocities, invasions and occupation by lamenting 'all the sacrifices the brave sons and daughters of Germany have made to maintain the honor, dignity and territorial integrity of the country'.
An injustice is an injustice and what is wrong is wrong - just because your nation is deluded and morally bankrupt enough to 'sacrifice its brave sons and daughters' in order to perpetuate an occupation and violate its commitments to the international community and more importantly the people under occupation does not make your nation's actions any better.
Well position on Kashmir of India and Pakistan are well known. What seems injustice to you might not be seen the same way in India.
I do not see India doing any injustice in Kashmir. If people take up weapons against a state then there will be killing on both sides and there will be some collateral damage too. Think about SWAT and Afghanistan both Pakistan and American forces have done collateral damages. When somethings happen in Kashmir its always given anti India color. We have seen many such cases where without even thinking blame was put on armed forces, this makes me believe that there are people in Kashmir who will miss no opportunity to blame India. No army in the world is holy, the way there work is designed often leads to frustration amongst them and some people cross the line. The point which is important is weather it is individual who is doing those acts or is it a state policy. If it is individuals it cannot be blamed on a country.
I have few questions to ask, if all people in Kashmir does not support India then why the J&K assembly has Kashmiri people in there, why there are people in India Parliament who are ministers belong to Kashmir. Why we have 60% turnout in elections, which no-one can debate were not fare. Why there was no problem before 1980 and why people who are now terrorist once participated in those elections. The chief of Hizbul Mujahideen fought elections in 70's or 80's when lost became terrorist. So if one losses election, he has right to start killing people. I assume that election might not have been fare, but does that means pick gun and start killing.
I am open to have a midway position on Kashmir and I do not think extreme position will be acceptable to anyone.
I also condemn countries using terrorism as state policy to settle political disputes. The reason is terrorist kill people who might have nothing to do with the issue in Hand. And last but not the least, no matter how much terrorist attack happens on India that will not influence it decision on Kashmir, if it will, then it will harden the stand only. Look what happened after 26/11.
I am open to debate with anyone who thinks that terrorist can achieve what they say they want to achieve by doing what they are doing now.
If they say they are freedom fighters then explain how each acts helps them achieve there goal. I think this can be interesting topic if anyone wants to start a thread.
