Some thoughts on Kashmir Crisis

Such a hard reality to digest that world is not a fair place to live. International laws means "ABSOLUTELY NOTHING" when the barometer is money and power. India is a billion-people plus consumer economy. Pakistan is surely are short of resources and perhaps had its share of mistakes on crucial occasions. However, here i am compelled to think about few unanswered question, such as: 

  1. Did Jinnah got it right on 2 nation theory. We been told by some that it was a lie. Now things make sense. What an irony. 
  2.  Bacha Khan was pro-Congress which means united India. What if NWFP voted for India in referendum. What an interesting situation that would have been. (Afghanistan (Law aw Bar mantra and refusal to accept durand line) already claims KP and Norther Baluchistan hence could he have gone against his mentors? Gandhi and Nehru. In that case KP would have been Kashmir 2.0 today because Modi's India dont care a damn. we are just Muslims and Godse who killed Gandhi is his idol and a saint)
  3. Pakistan's problems are multifaceted. UNSC was a step in the right direction but people linking Kashmir to Afghan peace (Hamid Mir and co) is extremely dangerous. Cant we focus on that angle? Western provinces must not be the fodder of wars anymore. We also aspire peace and for that peace in Afghanistan is paramount.
