I've lived for 21 years in the Middle East in 3 different countries. Comparing the so-called "plight" of the Kashmiris with those of the Palestinians is uncalled for. India never invaded Kashmir and unlike Isreal we never forcibly mass-evicted Kashmiris from their homes, built barricades around Kashmiri settlements etc. They were always free to roam from corner-to-corner of our country without any fear of recrimination; something unthinkable for a Palestinian to do under occupied territory. By using religion as USP, Pakistan's actions once again belies it's non-fundamentalist diplomacy.
