why are the United Nations and the world community quite and not doing anything positive for kashmir issue?

The United Nations is a debating society, and cannot agree on hardly anything.  How would we define "the world community?"  And how would YOU define the Kashmir issue?

The question presupposes that the two nations are agreeable to a peaceful solution.\n\nHaving the UN as arbitrator is laughable.\n\nThe UN allowed Saddam Hussein to murder millions of his own people (with WMD's).  He woodchipped people he really disliked and made movies of it so that he could enjoy it whenever.  His sons systematically raped women and murdered their husbands (sometimes before her eyes, just to spice it up a bit).  He ignored UN sanctions for 14 years.  When the euroweenies of the UN finally decided to do something, they sat on their fat butts and had us do it.  \n\nThe world (in the person of the UN) sanctioned our actions.  They then criticised us for our involvement.

The United Nations (UN) is an international organization whose stated aims are to facilitate co-operation in international law, international security, economic development, and social equity. It was founded in 1945 at the signing of the United Nations Charter by 50 countries, replacing the League of Nations founded in 1919.\n\nThe UN was founded after the end of World War II by the victorious allied powers in the hope that it would act to prevent and intervene in conflicts between nations and make future wars impossible or limited. The organization's structure still reflects in some ways the circumstances of its founding, which has led to calls for reform. The five permanent members of the UN Security Council, each of which has veto power on any UN resolution, are the main victors of World War II or their successor states: People's Republic of China (which replaced the Republic of China), France, Russia (which replaced the Soviet Union), the United Kingdom, and the United States.\n\nAs of 2006, there are 192 United Nations member states, including virtually every internationally recognized independent country. From its headquarters in New York City, the UN's member countries and specialized agencies give guidance and decide on substantive and administrative issues in regular meetings held throughout each year. The organization is divided into administrative bodies, including the General Assembly, Security Council, Economic and Social Council, Secretariat, Trusteeship Council, and the International Court of Justice (ICJ), as well as counterpart bodies dealing with the governance of all other UN System agencies, such as the World Health Organization (WHO) and United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF). The UN's most visible public figure, and the representative head, is the Secretary-General, currently Kofi Annan. On 13 October 2006, South Korean Foreign Minister Ban Ki-moon was approved by the United Nations General Assembly as the world body's eighth secretary-general and the first Asian to hold the post since 1971; Ban will assume the post on 1 January 2007.\n\nAims of the UN\n\nThe stated aims of the United Nations are to prevent war, to promote human rights, to provide a mechanism for international law, and to promote social progress and improved living standards. [6] It gives the opportunity for countries to balance global interdependence and national interests when addressing international problems. Toward this end it ratified a Universal Declaration of Human Rights in 1948....\n\n....In reality it's a w@nk-fest!! for want of a better word...\n\n...they will get their massive world army soon and when they do they will report to no one & they've already proved they cannot be kept in check! just go to the website in wikipedia...successes and failures...

It is better.  Less tension on the Kashmir front for both nations.  This is good since both have nuclear capabilities.

The United Nations is weak, indeed. The weakness of the organization stems from the widespread corruption throughout its ranks.\n\nMany of the UN's poorer members (as well as many of its socialist members) view it as an opportunity for wealth redistribution. Take a look at the amount of money contributed by each member nation versus the benefits received by each member nation. I am not saying that helping poorer countries is bad. Indeed, every nation should help out as much as they can. However, help should be voluntary and not forced through the United Nations.\n\nMany top individuals are corrupt, including the Secretary General. If you think the US government is corrupt regarding some of the defense no-bid contracts, you should look up what goes on in the United Nations. Not only are no-bid contracts common, NOBODY can summon the records. When an investigation becomes necessary, it is always conducted by UN members who find no wrongdoing. The company that Kofi Annan's son works for received numerous such contracts.\n\nThese are things that I certainly DO NOT want my tax dollars paying for.\n\nNOTE FOR EMILYROSE: An organization for peace is certainly a worthy goal. But when diplomatic options have failed, the UN has shown in recent history that they have nothing to back up their resolutions. Iraq thumbed its nose at the UN for a decade before something was done - and it wasn't the UN that did it. Countless resolutions regarding the Palestinian state and Israel have been passed (some for and some against each state). Each government laughs them off. Iran is now thumbing its nose at the UN. We'll see what happens. If the United Nations is not willing to go to war to back up the resolutions of the international community, they should disband and all go home because nothing will ever get accomplished. Kind of like what is happening now.

Although I'm an Indian I think that both India and Pakistan are responsible for the Kashmir problem. Normally Indians blame Pakistan and Pakistanis blame India. It's not that simple. We must know what people of Kashmir want. Most of the Kashmiris want independence. However if India loses Kashmir it would be easier for terrorists to attack India. This is the reason why India can't let go of Kashmir

I'm afraid that the majority of people do not know anything about this terrible conflict. (sad but true) The average person is interested only in the things that surround and impact their own lives. I really wish people would stretch themselves enough to learn about what is happening in our world - and this ongoing conflict regarding the future of Kashmir is an enormous problem. What began as a political controversy has gradually evolved to be about ethnicity and religious differences. This has resulted in a dangerous, impossible environment of intolernace, intimidation, and violence. What I feel most sad about is the fact that so many children are suffering. They have become orphans and are living destitute lives...and even if they had the blessing of caring adults, most likely those adults need psychiatric help (due to the huge growth in post-traumatic stress in the region) and are destitute themselves. Basically, no person is receiving the help they need. It's a tragic situation.

The UN is currently dealing with it.\n\nIran doesn't like that and so they bait us.\n\nIf something more is needed, it will become obvious with time.\n\nIran's biggest problem is their vocalized threat of nuclear attack on Israel.

It would not be correct to see Singapore's memberships in ASEAN/UN as successes or failures. It has its limitations as to the roles Singapore can play because of its small city nation status, population, economy, military. As such the country's contribution can't be one of leading the region nor be prominent on the world stage. Nevertheless Singapore have been a positive and pro-active nation particularly in ASEAN throwing its weight behind humanitarian efforts in the Indian-Andaman tsunami relief and other mercy missions; tackling terrorist activity within the state; and promoting intra-regional trade and investments. Despite being surrounded with predominantly muslim neighbour countries, Singapore has achieved remarkable stability, peace and prosperity because its founding fathers laid down a very progressive system for the current generation of leaders to build on. Asean / UN has little to do with the "integrity", "vision" and "ingenuity" of the Singaporean people - these are the real successes of Singapore.

Because hope springs eternal. While the UN will probably go the way of the old League of Nations, it is worth "wasting time" on it in case they do actually get a backbone and start working like they were supposed to.\n\nWars will always be with us because bullies are always with us. However, leagues of nations can make them shorter by banding together to trounce the latest bully and then helping the country in question until they can stand on their own again, hopefully without the bully at the helm.

Mainly because the U.N. won't act in a manner in which it said it was supposed to when first chartered.  A few nations take the initiative to be involved when there should be a general agreement on handling these situations by the majority of the nations to be involved

The world as a whole has nothing to work for. There is rampant apathy, and that creates a void that is filled only by a lust for power, either over one person or one million. People don't really care about anything anymore. When the world has something that everyone is truly willing to work for, then we will have "peace." Unfortunately, only world-wide disasters and wars are what can "bring us together."

No I don't think the UN have been successful. When the people in Africa need the UN help to stop the war within itself the UN waited to long to help them. It is like us in the USA calling 911 and been told that we have to wait a week for the EMT to come and help. That is not right. If they are being asked for help then They need to help asap. Not when they feel is the right time. They are the world police.
