just to live a normal life with peace and dignity. Honestly if thinks were were to cool down in the region and normal life restored then everything will work out be it kashmir / afghansitan or even india - pak.
You don't think the people of Kashmir have already tried that?
Even after India trampled over the wishes of most of the population and illegally occupied the state, the people of Kashmir gave "Indian democracy" a chance. And how did India respond? By breaking every promise it ever made to the people of Kashmir...stripping away the state's autonomy, fixing every election, and denying the people their most basic democratic rights. India had over 40 years to win over the people of Kashmir, and it squandered that opportunity. Now, after all that, plus the laundry list of atrocities committed by the barbarians of the Indian army, there is absolutely no reason why India should ever be trusted again.
As for Mirwaiz, he is a sensible person but he also get into his religious elements, as he did in this land deal also. Look what he said .....
Such is the nature of South Asian politics. Gandhi, a man you people practically worship as a prophet of secularism, had no problem running around call for "Ram raj" and using all sorts of Hindu imagery to mobilize the Indian masses.
ask him what he did when the Dal lake was being ravaged by Kashmiri's.
He, along with Yasin Malik, joined forces with Green Kashmir...an NGO dedicated to the preservation of Dal Lake, which not only works to educate locals about the necessity of making environmentally responsible choices, but also oversees all of the garbage collection and clean-up efforts in the area (without any real assistance from the apathetic Indian government at that).
