Joseph Goebel's sayings, " frequently repeated lies have the potential of being acknowledged as the truth".
It always is when when your fabrications and twisting of history are challenged with facts.
There you go again....trying to make up new facts.
The muslims where getting attacked all over JK by dogra forces and the hindu subjects joined in on the carnage.
Jammu had more hindus and the dogra forces where more successful but when the same thing was being tried out in muslim majority areas the people rose up with Muslims soldiers fom dogra Division including those of Poonch and Mirpur.who got disaffected with Dogra regime for its connivance in the ethnic cleansing of Muslims of Jammu Division.
Hari Singh’s government launched an ethnic cleansing operation against Muslims in which Dogra Army personnel took a vigorous part actively assisted by Hindu and Sikh extremists —— both local and those imported from the East Punjab.
The propaganda launched by government of India and National Conference against the Poonch Rebellion labeling it as tribal invasion has stuck to this day as some sort of soild fact that can not be disputed.
Ian Stephens, editor of The Statesman (Calcutta) noted in his book ‘Pakistan’ that “unlike every part of the State, Hindu and Sikhs slightly out-numbered Muslims and within a period of about 11 weeks, starting in August, systematic savageries ——— practically eliminated the entire Muslim element in the population, amounting to 5,00,000 people. About 2, 00,000 just disappeared,
In retaliation of this large-scale massacre, arson, loot, rape and abduction of Muslim women at the hands of Hindu and Sikh extremists facilitated by Dogra Army, Muslim organized a strong army of about 50,000 in number and started to fight,once the indian army moved in then so did the pak army.
Its not your fault......years and years of being told what the facts where without getting the other side of the story does that to you.
The tribals even if grossly misplaced were in reponse to the jammur massacare, [/QUOTE]
On November 5 and 6, 1947, more than 100 lories, loaded with women, children and old men were taken into the wilderness of Kuthua forests. Hindu extremists and armed gangs were let loose on these innocent people and an unparallel butchery was perpetrated, killing thousands of them. Women were raped, molested and their valuables looted. All these bloodsheds were taking place in full view of the Indian army, which had by that time occupied a major part of the state. In another act of butchery, a large gathering of 25000 Muslims, in Miran Sahib and Ranbir Singhpora, were machine-gunned. During migration to Pakistan in 1947, nearly 300,000 people were massacred in cold British daily "the London Times" wrote on October 10, 1947 in a report from its special correspondent in India that the Maharaja, under his own supervision, got assassinated 237,000 Muslims, using military forces in Jammu area. The editor of "Statesman" Ian Stephen, in his book "Horned Moon" wrote that till the end of autumn 1947, more than 200,000 Muslims were assassinated.
Trying to compare a few isolated cases of tribesman looting to the mass murder and rape carried out by dogra-indian-RSS forces is not correct.
“The Hindus and Sikhs of Jammu and those who had gone there from outside (referring to RSS goons from Gurdaspur and surrounding areas) killed Muslims there. Their women have been dishonored. This has not been fully reported in the newspapers. The Maharaja of Kashmir is responsible for what has happened there” (Collected Works of Mahatma Gandhi, volume 90, page 115 and 298).
It is no wonder, then, that when Gandhi was killed by an RSS supported Hindu fanatic, sweets were distributed throughout Jammu in special thalis supplied from the Maharaja’s Palace.
and guess what Arundhati Roy says 
in an interview. Your definition of trust worthy source is getting dangerously distorted.
