No body is holding Indias hand so India should solve this problem once and for all... That is if it can.....
Its kind of interesting hearing that Kashmir is a dead issue...when there is still an active insurgency...we just had the kargil skirmish, a million men in arms faced each other over Kashmir....and the Colin Powell has said soon as he's done with Iraq, he will try to resolve the Kashmir issue... come out of the la la land,,and into reality....
Like indians aren’t doing anything to suppress the so called “minority” (Muslims). Events in Gujrat do show their and their goverment; BJP’s terrorist activities… 
Baseless Statement
Fernandes’ statement termed baseless"
ISLAMABAD, April 12: Pakistan on Saturday blasted as a lie a statement by Indian Defence Minister George Fernandes that Pakistan was a prime case for pre-emptive strikes.
“It is a lie that has no legs to stand on,” a foreign office spokesman said in a statement.
“The whole world knows George Fernandes as an irresponsible leader who lost all credibility because of his wild and unfounded allegations against each one of India’s neighbours,” the spokesman said.
The spokesman described Mr Fernandes as a “tehlka-fame” minister, referring to an Indian television report last year on corruption in a defence deal following which he quit but was later reinstated.
The FO statement said Pakistan had caught “several Indian agents, some red-handed, who masterminded many terrorist incidents in Pakistan”. “Indian support to terrorist movements in the region is also well documented,” it said.
The world community has lauded Pakistan’s central role in the international war against terrorism, which “continues to irk malicious leaders like George Fernandes,” the statement said.
“Instead of fretting over Pakistan the Indian leaders should shed their hegemonistic mindset and focus on settling disputes with Pakistan peacefully through negotiations,” it said.
Mr Fernandes on Friday said: “There are enough reasons to launch such (pre-emptive) strikes against Pakistan, but I cannot make public statements on whatever action may be taken.”
He said he endorsed Indian Foreign Minister Yashwant Sinha’s recent comments that India had a much better case to go for pre-emptive action against Pakistan than the US had in Iraq.-AFP

India creates baseless statements everyday. I think this was a good answer to their foreign office.
There is no way to deal with India when it comes to Kashmir without violence in one form or another. India will never accept that Kashmir is not a part of their Union, so talk is useless.. Its all a matter of force, that is all India understands.
Kashmir will never be a dead issue so long as your country continues to occupy it… 
If you people want to see an end to “cross bordere terrorism,” maybe you should come to terms with that reality:)
pakistan is no iraq or afghanistan. the americans will think twice before they try to take pakistan down. pakistan is already saying its weapons are superior to that of india. india on the other hand may not like to see a war in pakistan cos it may escalate to within indian borders as well
Pakistan says its missiles better than India’s
By Chaitanya Kalbag and Simon Denyer
ISLAMABAD (Reuters) - Pakistan’s foreign minister on Tuesday warned India of massive retaliation if it tried to launch a pre-emptive strike on his country, arguing that Islamabad had a more advanced missile programme than New Delhi.
Mian Khursheed Mehmood Kasuri described as “irresponsible” comments from his Indian counterpart Yashwant Sinha this month that there was a stronger case for military action against Pakistan than Iraq.
“Of course one is concerned, but I am not alarmed,” he told Reuters in an interview, when asked about Sinha’s comments.
“They are threatening nuclear war against us. My response is this: ‘Don’t make that mistake’,” he said. "Our (missile) programme is more advanced than India’s.
“If India launches into anything stupid, they will pay a price.” Both India and Pakistan detonated nuclear devices in May 1998 and have assembled arsenals of warhead-capable missiles.
Sinha said India had better grounds for staging a pre-emptive strike against Pakistan than the United States had for invading Iraq. But he later said India was not about to attack Pakistan and said his comments may have been misunderstood.
“I don’t think they become a foreign minister,” Kasuri said of the comments. "Foreign ministers have to keep their language in check because their primary purpose is to lower tension. To raise the tension all you require is a wag of the tongue.
“My constituency is on the Indian border and I will get many more votes if I start speaking like Mr Sinha, but I take my job very seriously and I will not ever use such language.”
REJECTS PRE-EMPTIVE DOCTRINE
Kasuri said he rejected the doctrine of pre-emptive war, but added that there was an argument to use it against India itself, saying New Delhi had rejected United Nations resolutions about the disputed territory of Kashmir and violated human rights in its north-east, where separatist insurgencies rage.
“I do not believe in any such doctrine,” Kasuri said, “but if, for the sake of discussion, one assumes there was such a doctrine, India would be a fit case.”
Tensions between the nuclear-armed neighbours have been stoked by the killing of 24 Hindus by suspected Muslim rebels in Indian Kashmir last month.
New Delhi blamed the attack on Pakistan, but Kasuri said India’s ruling Hindu nationalist Bharatiya Janata Party was simply playing for votes domestically, with state elections due in November and national elections next year.
“These leaders are issuing these inflammatory statements to soothe the domestic electoral agenda of the BJP,” he said. “I think it is irresponsible.”
India, he said, also seemed concerned that the West, in an effort to soothe Muslim anger after the Iraq war, might push for a resolution not only of the Palestinian question but also of the Kashmir dispute.
“One strand of my thought says it is the domestic electoral agenda,” he said. “Maybe there’s something else underlying it, that is this fear the international community may turn its attention at long last to a resolution of the Kashmir question.”
The South Asian rivals came close to war last year over Indian assertions that Pakistan was sending militants across the Line of Control into Indian-controlled Kashmir.
Kasuri said those claims were not correct, and challenged India to accept neutral observers along the ceasefire line in Kashmir, a suggestion New Delhi has repeatedly rejected.
“Why does it want to be accuser, prosecutor and judge at the same time?,” he asked. “Let them accept international monitoring along the Line of Control on both sides.”
India needs to think twice before attacking Pakistan. Pak is no Afghanistan or Iraq. And India is no America.
this guy makes me laugh!
iraq fell coz the public was against the govt....he said that india had a case of a pre-emptive strike against pakistan......then let them go ahead with it.....pakistan in no iraq
