    First of all, this land is the cause of conflict between India and Pakistan, you seem to have read one sided history. If you have read history, you should conclude Pakistan as the occupier as they invaded then indepdent state of Kashmir. The ruler of Kashmir signed over succession to India. The western interest isn’t to aid India but rather drain out resources of India and Pakistan for useless conflict (roots of which can be traced back to British Raj) even USA has been one of the biggest western supporters of Pakistan.

      Sure pakistan is a client state of US. Pak has interest over kashmir but at this point it can barely concentrate on its own. The larger hold has been had India. At this point US state has better standing with India.

      The aid from west since war on terror has been primarily used by paramilitaries here in my country to broadly quash movements. Whether its communist movements with operation steepleback or targeting tribal land through Israeli tech or broadly targeting kashmiri people.

      USA has billions in deals with India and sees it as strategic stand against china. The usa sure picked picked when british left. To use pak and Afghanistan against USSR. But at this point it shifted from assets in pak or afghanistan to India.

      By this year India has restructured their control on j&k since 2020. They got the authority to decide land reforms and development in j&k not pak. They make sure whether internet works or not to control the information flow. Indian military has the stronghold not pak.

      Yet you accuse me of one siding this, which is very gross. On top of it you tell me that I don’t know history or what happened back when the king signs over. I know all that and also just cause a king signed that doesn’t grant carte blanche to India. Its been decades from that and a lot shifted since. Pakistan can’t decide shit in kashmir cause it doesn’t call any shots, India does. Calling pak kashmir occupier in 2024 is untrue and laughable.

      You sound exactly like a Palestinian genocide denier. Since when do “rulers” making decisions to give up an entire country to another state mean anything?

      Kings, shahs, priests, etc have no right to sign off ownership to another country.

      The kashmiris of today want freedom and independence, fuck India and Pakistan.
