		<description>India did not even give any chance for the Kashmiris to vote. How would they have treated Muslims of Pakistan if a Union would have formed? I know, not all people are against Muslims. But there are Extremist wings in any community. If they cannot be controlled, no two nations or communities could merge. Specially Two nations like the hindus and muslim with completely different beliefs and teachings.</description>

		<description>Realtions b/w India and Pakistan should be kept friendly. As there will be nothing but spilling of blood by any war. Btw, if India can so easily accuse Pakistan of Mumbai bomb blasts, then Pakistan could also have accused India of the last three-day Terrorism in Karachi, but it was not. Without evidence this is being said so. Also, there could have been an Indian Union if Hindus respected Muslims. Our cultues and teachings of our religions are completely different. Muslims are a separate community, we cannot merge with Indians; more particularly, Hindus.</description>

		<description>Pakistan and India do have a lot in common. The two countries are so close together the people should be coming together and stop the quarrel. They are all humans. We all want to live and be happy at the same time. The fact that the Indian Prime minister is traveling to Pakistan to try and resolve matters is astounding. It's about time someone tried to negotiate the situation. The two countries need to take into consideration the opposing sides ideas and thoughts. Both sides of the argument need to be considerate of the other. Pakistan is a small country and India is fairly large. It would be beneficial to both countries if India would join forces with Pakistan instead of fighting. Though both sides have hurt the other, the Indian government has been closed minded to the needs of the people of Pakistan. They have forced them out of India, condemned their religion of Islam, and tore them apart. Families were brutally murdered, and degraded; businesses were burned down, children were killed. All these things should be taken into consideration when negotiating a solution. It is not about whose image looks better; it is about justice, respect, honesty, and loyalty. The land of India and Pakistan are basically joined together. They are neighboring countries and they should be able to get along.  The two countries should have a meeting with the representatives from India and Pakistan only. They should not have any outside influences at the meeting. Having outside influences will not only cause tensions, but it is completely unnecessary for them to be there. The problem started out with India versus Pakistan, and today, presently, the problem is still between India and Pakistan. I believe that Pakistan is more ethical in this argument. They didn't have choices because they are a smaller country. Their religion is Islam in Pakistan and the majority of the Hindu- Indian population didn't agree with the Islamic views of the Muslims that resided India. This problem has caused much heartache and has led to more fighting. It has to stop here. I agree with the title of the blog. It's now or never.</description>

		<description>Most of the civilizations in sub continent reside in Pakistani area such as Indus civilization and Harrpa and list can go on. Most of the people in these civilizations were immigrant from Central Asia or West Asia, which means simply that most of them were non-Indians. And obviously this is applies to Pakistanis in general also. Pakistani culture and especially Urdu language is a non Indian entity. 

Taj Mahal was also build by Mughals who were Non-Indians and Urdu transformed from Pakistan. Pakistan is more sophisticated in its language and culture then India. Our ancestors brought civilization to India for example beautiful Islamic buildings, Ittar (perfume) Urdu language and manners.  

We should learn a great lesson from Mughals who tried hard to mix Indians and Muslims but at the end they end up evaporating. Every Pakistani knows today that Urdu language is in great threat from Indian channels.

Finally, India’s history belongs to outsiders always remember.  

Other reason that we should not watch Indians movies because of Kashmir is a political one. We should watch embrace every culture and society movies and shows including India’s but not at the cost of Pakistan’s own culture and language.</description>

		<description>I, being a Pakistani, am extremely ashamed of Musharraf. The parliament should expel him from the position of President immediately. I don’t see why national interests of a rogue communist authoritarian state like China to be more important than the the security of all countries in South and Southeast Asia. Musharraf has allowed China to build a deep sea port in Gwadar and as if this was not enough he is allowing China to build rail and road links into Pakistan under the name of trade.

History is being created as we speak and if we spinelessly bow down in front of a belligerent regime of China, I have no doubt that it would be opening up the way for Chinese invasion into Pakistan for our natural resources. I hope Pakistan does not become the “next Tibet” to be occupied or rather peacefully liberated by China in a few decades.

The best solution is a Free Tibet and a Free Xinjiang. The world should give them a chance and a helping hand to come out extreme oppression at the hands of the Communists. It is possible only with a unified and coordinated attack by the whole world on diplomatic, military, economic fronts.</description>

		<description>Let us call a spade a spade pakistan is for all practical purposes a punjabi muslim country,despite its grandiose claims of representing muslims of the subcontinent it was prepared to go to genocidal lengths in 1971 bangladesh and 1973 in baluchistan to protect its punjabiyat. 
And to all my over enthusiastic fellow indians please get this into your mind right from childhood they are taught about the glories of islamic conquests and the inevitability of the subjugation of the kafir(u and me),these people don't want to live with us in peace they want to rule us.unfortunately for them in this day and age diplomacy and advanced technology has neutralized the power of well built hordes prepared to die as they found out in 1971.But still we must never lower our guard they talk peace when they are weak and jehad when they are strong will we never learn?</description>

		<description>There is no such thing as India-Pakistan friendly ties. Pakistan doesn't even understand the geopolitics of the region. Here's the situation. China's wants control over the Indian Ocean through Pakistan. Pakistan air space is controlled by the US for obvious interests in the entire oil-rich region (under the name of fight against terrorism). If Pakistanis were really smart, there would be a revolution within Pakistan to join a secular India. What I don't understand why both sides keep fighting over Kashmir when forming an Indian Union is of utmost importance given the geopolitics of the region.</description>
