After international pressure and feeling terribly alone in the whole world,even American,British and Russian inclination towards Indian support now Pakistan is taking U Turn on the Kashmir Issue.
Freedom movement is same whether in Palestine,Kashmir or Balochistan but its the perception which matters.
I am totally against support of any freedom movement along with terrorist activities of any kind whether on media,on print or on the road.No,such freedom movement should be taken by iron hands.
India and Pakistan are both corrupt,both lead by illiterate and poor mind so called leaders.
Both prime ministers are funniest prime ministers who even don't know 5 international languages.Both need advisers to run the country,amazing.
Kashmir has been an integral part of India since independence. So the ONE POINT discussion is to be limited to returning POK to India. India has more Muslims, more freedom and Indians therefore don't understand why Pakistan is bothered about Kashmir. Pakistan should stay focused on giving more freedom and improve the overall quality of life of her own citizens. Pakistani citizen will be more happy to get good education, food and job security.
