Let's flip this around.
People want Pakistanis to boycott Israel. But it's okay for other Arabs and the rest of the world to have trade and relations with Israel. I just want to understand why the double standard.
What people are you talking about? Activists in general? The PA? Who? If you are talking about Palestinian activists, there is no double standard, they want everyone to condition full relations with Israel on commitment to two state solution.
It should be made clear again, I'm talking about double standard in this forum, not anywhere else. Turkey and Iran can trade with India and meet with Modi and members here have no problem with this but throw tantrums if they see any Arab leader doing this or any Arab state trading with India. Arabs do not have such a double standard.
Where the **** do you get the idea it's not as grave as Palestinians?
It is not, this is a fact, especially from your perspective where you believe it should be integrated into Pakistan. Pakistan is an independent nation, not under occupation of anyone, and they have a functioning military to overlook the Kashmiri territories. Palestinians whole country is under occupation and they got no military assistance from their neighbors. It is a more grave situation.
You need to make up your mind too, do you want Kashmir to be integrated into Pakistan or you want Kashmiri's to declare independent state? I don't downplay Kashmiri peoples struggle and I support them in their own quest for independence and referendum for whatever they want to do.
This does not mean because one conflict is more grave than the other, nothing should be done about it. That's not true, but the way you approaching Kashmir is wrong. There are ways to support Kashmir without cutting ties with India, and Pakistan has a lot of time to plan things out and to campaign for support. Their military is there standing behind the people in Kashmir. Things like that make a big difference.
The people of Indian occupied Kashmir are not the same as the people living on our side of border. That's like saying Palestinians already have Jordan and Syria as countries of their own so their situation is not as grave!
I don't even know what you are talking about here, but no, Palestinians are not Jordanian or Syrian. I was simply talking about which part is administered by which country.
The people of Kashmir face existential threat, demographic engineering, rape, mass killing and oppression in every way possible.
I don't downplay the struggles of Kashmiri people. I am talking about Pakistani's here and their expectations/double standards.
I don't expect you to care when your President awards Modi, the butcher of Gujarat and responsible for genocide of 8000 Muslims in broad daylight, the highest civilian award in the universe!!
First of all, he's not my President, second of all your own leadership, Iran and Turkey leadership all met with him and you said nothing. I personally do not like Modi based off his views and anti-Muslim/Islam bias, as well that of his party's. But, this Modi-Abbas meeting over funding to a hospital is a non-factor.
Anyways you do what's in your best interest. We do what's in our best interest.
No, I don't operate with this kind of mentality about 'interests'. I don't have 'interests' besides establishing the worship of God in this earth. Also I am one person in America, I'm not no government official. You can believe in what you want.
No special relationships. My post are directed at other Pakistanis who are fooled by the concept of Ummah and are ready to sacrifice the entire country to serve others' interests. I don't hate Palestinians or anyone else for looking after their interests selfishly.
Well you need to look in mirror, because you are just as selfish and so the Turks, Iranians and everyone else in this world. For you, the 'solution' is just another political initiative by different nations to achieve more of these selfish interests. I don't share this view and I'm view of stopping selfish behavior which is only going to be achieved by repenting to God and worshipping him. 'Interests' in this world mean nothing to me, I'm not taking them with me to afterlife.
I'm in favor of establishing Islamic Caliphate in the Arab world to remind the people of the Greatness of the Lord and how he can establish a just, God observing society if he wanted to and grant them victory. And God would do that just as an example for human beings, not because he need us for some political victories which are irrelevant in afterlife. It's about pledging allegiance to God and making people know their Lord can influence this world and is ultimately in control of our fate which we seem to forget.
