I have not made an issue of my religion or any other personal detail. My responses would be the same, whatever my religion or dress sense. My responses have been, and will be objective, and I will not claim legitimacy on the basis of religion or any other personal details. This will be my last...

1) The point is that you are using a completely different yardstick to make the facts suit your beliefs, instead of beliefs based on facts. One man being killed for eating beef, while a despicable and criminal act, cannot be used to generalize that Muslims are oppressed or that India is a...

Exactly one Muslim was killed, and another one injured. Shouldn't have happened, but that doesn't justify your generalization. And that incident was widely condemned, and will be talked about for years. How many Muslims (and others) are killed in Paksitan for their faith? How many bombings in...

You prefer white skinned invaders, I suppose? Anyway, I have no appetite for this level of discourse. I'll leave that for people like you.

As I asked earlier, how do you expect the police to behave? Wouldn't children (teenager, in that pic) who throw rocks at the police be expected to receive at least a lathi blow? A rock thrown at a policeman will injure him, whether thrown by adults or children. And when the crowds comprise of...

The injuries and deaths are awful, especially of children. But is it really the fault of the armed forces? Should children be part of these (violent) protests, in the first place? Look at it neutrally, and tell me if the armed forces could have done any better - was it possible to use any less...

1) Well yes, there is religious bigotry in India. Nowhere close to the amount in certain other countries, but it is there. But as a nation, everybody is equal in the eyes of the law. 2) Jats weren't asking for sedition from India. Nor were they supporting armed insurgents. Nor have they ever...

Syed Ata Hasnain, as commander of XV corps, was responsible for keeping Kashmir Indian. The security of the entire state was under his command. (And he didn't disappoint.) He was also the Director General of Military Operations, and later Military Secretary. Previously he also commanded the...

You failed to answer my question. I asked you to name 3 things that Hindus can do, but Muslims cannot. 1) Neither Hindus nor Muslims are allowed to eat beef in many parts of India. In some parts of India, both Muslims and Hindus can and do eat beef. Outside India too, both Hindus and Muslims...

Freedom of speech is a wonderful thing. Please state three things that Hindus are allowed to do but Muslims aren't, according to Indian law.

What puzzles me is why we have never even attempted Number 3. There is no dearth of material for a counter narrative. Neither side is an angel, but it feels like India doesn't even bother to make India's stance and narrative clear. The Indian establishment is always content to let things be, or...

Right, I wonder what happens at the end of that 100 years. They pack up and go back?

His comparison with Israel is completely off the mark, but it is true that India has enough military might to ensure that Kashmir will remain India's. That part is undeniable, irrespective of either side's claim to be right.

Well, your countryman stated that he is a "university student", and therefore it means a lot. The reality... By the way, leaving school without completing it is the very definition of dropping out; whatever the reason for doing so may have been.

Err...Burhan Wani was a 10th standard dropout.

Yes, Pakistan stopped (to be more accurate, severely reduced) military support during Musharaff's time in about 2003. But the reason for the big change from early 90s to today, is that now the IA has a very large counter insurgency force - the Rashtriya Rifles. The RR did not exist in the early...

If I was a youtube member, and active in discussions there, I certainly would tell what I said here to anybody who merited it there. On this forum, I can only communicate to whoever posts here. If you find anything wrong in what I wrote, address that instead of directing me to other websites...

Actually it's 2-3% :) : http://in.reuters.com/article/kashmir-human-rights-indian-army-idINDEE9B90AR20131210 http://www.jammu-kashmir.com/archives/archives2013/kashmir20131209a.html...

Exactly. And that is what everybody should have done, instead of so gullibly and gleefully devouring it. If you read on an Indian blog or website that the Pakistani ambassador to Australia has been kicked out for raping women, and if you see neither Australian nor Pakistani nor any other media...

The point is that the "incident" has only happened in a Pakistani journalist's mind. And now in the minds of many Pakistanis here, who are ecstatic at the imaginary incident. You cannot investigate an incident that never happened. If the allegation came from an Afghan woman, it needs to be...
