I don't believe that.. < the Indian side of Kashmir is Pakistan's. And that Pakistan should get it by any means and at whatever costs.> I think we have enough of our problems on our platter and we really don't need any more land. Your 600,000 soldiers in Kashmir should stop infiltration, close the border completely. Your security failures should not be attributed to us. If 600,000 soldiers are not enough bring more that is how a true legitimate democracy should really operate and deny them right of 'self determination' or vote with force that should cripple them. I am least bothered what you do but when you fail to control you abuse us that is my only problem. Get things in order, if few million Kashmiri’s need 600,000 soldiers to control how many you would require to control 140 million Pakistanis? Where guns are part of the culture in every house. The issue is realism and acceptance of ground realities, like you vote and take pride to be free and ridicule me for being a slave nation subject (slave to my army) let them vote, don't deny them what you think is right for you, something that Pundit jee promised in 1948 UN resolutions,<The two countries ought not to be in this situation in the first place; and if at the time of partition in 1947 Jawaharlal Nehru had not regarded Kashmir as his original home, its ruler, Hari Singh, probably would not have been encouraged to take its Muslim majority into India. But we are where we are: the problem is how to move on from here> it is the only choice. That is a fact rest we can argue for centuries.
