I am lost and will you help me find my way, my good SIR?
Did I say people in Taiwan were clamouring to "re-unite"? No, I simply implied that it is an international issue, regardless how PRC sees it internally.
So you do accept Taiwan (a nation) cant be compared to Kashmir (state)?
And irrespective of how you "democracy" this and "election that", Tibet is an internal issue just as Khalistan or Balochistan is. And by no means am I in agreement with how PRC handled this particular issue from start to finish.
You are comparing Khalistan to Tibet. You are getting too silly. I hope you know about so many state-sponsored curtails on Tibetans. Khalistan?? where does the borders start? How many people claim it - i mean real people who are fighting for it?
For all that free thought of Bharat - plus supersized "free thought" of USA, one would think Sir Raj would appreciate logic ...
And back to your loincloth Kashmiri "democracy", SIR. There is more to democracy than pro-forma elections "fixed" by plutocrats just as there is more to virginity than an intact hymen stitched up by a pimp.
BTW, give anyone half a million soldiers armed to the teeth and some "electronic" voting boxes, and throw in some Rupees or $, and s/he'll have you a list of approved candidates with 70% turn-out just as well.
Excuse me for understanding that you have been in Canada and know what democracy is. You got to have sources to back up your claim that Indian democracy is sham. Apparently, you are the only who is claiming so. India paid people to come to vote? What else are you going to say now? Indian RAW is running the govt. Be credible in what you are saying?
Never mind Asia Times - btw, did I quote it (see why I am lost)? Let me repeat it to you: Kashmir is an international issue and a Plebiscite with an independence option is the way to go - eventually.
For the time being, perhaps a cooling off of the issue is most desirable - analogous to the situation across Taiwan Straight.
Kashmir is a political issue whereas Taiwan is a international issue. Kashmir is already divided among India, Pakistan and China. Taiwan is a country. I cannot see any kind of comparison. Taiwan has its own army, navy, airforce with sole intention of remaining indepent. Kashmir can be compared more to Tibet. Just like Kashmir, Tibet is occupied by China whereas monks dont want them there. And unlike Kashmir, where Kashmiris assists India for protecting them like in 1965 and in Kargil and during recent Chinese intrusion who report back to Indians, Tibetan monks dont want a piece of China.
BTW, you do not know my personal stance regarding Taiwan and I will not veer off topic just for you - not after explicit warnings from mods.
Like it or not, Azad Kashmir is akin to India's Jammu.
And disputed Kashmir is internationally unsettled.
P.S., I registered your "water war" - Bharat's hands on this are blacker than anybody else's in the neighbourhood. But I won't indulge in another off-topic side track.
I dont think any reasonable Indian would say Kashmir is politically settled and that is why posturing is going on between India and Pakistan. It is only a matter of time when it will be settled. India wants to find right moment to get maximum advantage and Pakistan is doing the same thing.
