Considering Pakistan was part of India until the U.K. dismantled India into two countries before it left. I side with India. Same thing as in Palestine. The Israelis have an inch and want a yard.

Well, just so that you get your facts straight:\n\n1. During the partition, it was ruled that all the princely states(Kashmir was one) could decide whether they wanted to join India or Pakistan. The ruler of Kashmir remained undecided till Pakistani backed tribal invasion in 1947-48. the ruler decided to accede to India following which India sent it's troop to Kashmir for it's defence.\n\n2. The tribal invasion succeeded in occupying some protion of kashmir which is not the 'Pakistan Occupied Kashmir(PoK)'. Pakistan, however does not agree and calls it Azad Kashmir(Free Kashmir) and has coined a similar term 'Indian Occupied Kashmir(IoK)' for the indian territory in Kashmir.\n\n3. In 1965, pakistan crossed the ceasefire line in kashmir to try and capture kashmir, which was thwarted by the Indian action towards Lahore.\n\nPakistani history books(and consequently those who have grown up reading these) however proclaim  that India was the aggressor.\n\n4. Starting 1989 pakistan established terrorist training camps(the same are used for militants operating in Iraq) in PoK to to train extremist elements to disrupt peace in Kashmir.\n\nInitially the local muslims were also involved, a group called JKLF(Jammu Kashmir Liberation Front) being the leading one. During this time hindus were driven out of Kashmir. The economy collapsed and it resulted in a snowball effect of unemployment->unease->terrorism.\n\nHowever, over a period a time, the locals have joined politics and have come for dialogue while ISI(Inter services Intelligence, Pakistani secret service) backe elements have continued to send foreign elements to continue the unrest.\n\n5. In 1999 these militants crossed into Indian territory and lodged themselves in barracks location at mountain tops, vacated by the Indian Army during the winters. Army was called in to dislodge these insurgents, with air force also being used.\n\nUpon recapture, amongst those killed were regulars of the pakistani army, especially notable being regulars of their special forces whose bodies pakistan refused to accept. They had their disposal official arsenal of the pakistani military, even anti-aircraft missiles which were used to shoot down vehicles plying on the road connecting the valley to the rest of the nation.\n\nPakistan continues to harbour and train terrorists whose activities target even the innocent civilians.\n\nCrux of the matter is that terrorism in Kashmir is Pakistan sponsored and India is trying to defend it's soil.

i am pretty sure u wont like this answer and itsnt worth the effort, but still i will answer it.\n\nis india afraid of pakistan??\nthe answer is yes\n\nwhy should not we be?? the country has got a nuke. the country is ruled by its military.  next change may bring in religious fundamentalists to power,\nso why should not we be afraid.\n\nunlike pakistan we cant allow our citizens to be killed by another country(as the usa continuously raids targets inside pak and keeps on killing their citizens)\n\nwe are not foolish enough to send our soldiers to a war which is not necessary(which we can win in the end) and loose their precious lives.\n\nif u take the above factors into consideration yes we are afraid.\n\nu know i was always weak at history but seems u never even studied it!!\n\ncan u please enlighten me which war ended in equality\n\n1948:- when india gained control of kashmir\n\n1965- when pakistan had to run around in the world to find a negotiator\n\n1971- when 90000 of ur soldiers surrendered to our army and needless to mention u lost east pakistan\n\nnow we come to kargil\n\nfirst of all can u kindly tell me whether it was pakistani military in kargil or just mercenaries.\n\ni am not disagreeing with u when u say that it was pakistani army.\n\nits just that the govt of pakistan didnt have the guts to acknowledge those people as its soldiers.\n\npakistan is really a very strong country one which cant even claim back the bodies of its soldiers and give them decent burial.\n\nif pakistan is really so strong then why does it have to send its soldiers in disguise,\n\ni mean 1948:-tribals who somehow had mortars\n\n1999:-mercenaries who somehow had got hold of pakistani army identification.\n\ni am gonna skip the china part thats another story\n\ni am not hoping for a best answer but if u think it is worth it i will only be too glad   ;)

THE REALATIONS BETWEEN INDIA AND PAKISTAN WERE VERY BAD FROM THE TIME OF INDEPENDENCE . BUT THERE ARE A FEW IMPROVEMENTS RECENTLY BUT THE INDIANS WATCH THEM WITH CAUTION JUST BECAUSE THEY DONT TRUST MUSHARUFF . THE FOLLOWING ARE MY VIEWS REGARDING INDIA - PAK RELATIONS .\n\n1. UNLESS UNTIL PAK STOPS GIVING SUPPORT TO TERRORISTS ORGANISATIONS AND ENDS THE DECADES OLD PROXY WAR THERE CANNOT BE ANY PEACE IN THE REGION.\n\n2. NOW THAT KASMIR IS DIVIDED INTO TWO AS INDIAN CONTROLLED KASHMIR AND PAK CONTROLLED KASHMIR(POK) BOTH OF THEM CAN AGREE THAT THE CURRENT LOC OR LINE OF CONTROL BE ACCEPTED AS THE INTERNATIONAL BORDER AND FORGET THE PAST.\n\n3. INDIA DOES NOT FAVOR A WAR .ITS PAKISTAN THAT KEEPS DISTURBING THE RELATIONS EVERY TIME .FOR EXAMPLE THE KARGIL WAR -- WHEN INDIAN PM WAS ON A GOOD WILL VISIT TO ISLAMABAD THE PAK ARMY SOLDIERS DRESSED UP AS TERRORISTS WERE CROSSING THE BORDER INTO INDIA .THUS THE NEXT THING IS TRUST . INORDER TO BRING UP A MUTUAL TRUST BETWEEN THE TWO NATIONS PAK HAS TO CHANGE ITS ANTI-INDIA POLICY .\n\n4. ALL OTHER MINOR PROBLEMS LIKE WATER AND RIVER DISPUTES CAN BE EASILY SOLVED ONCE THERE IS A TRUST BETWEEN THE TWO NATIONS .\n\n5. I WOULD LIKE TO SAY THAT LAST TIME WHEN PAK TERRORISTS ATTACKED INDIA'S PARLIMENT THERE WAS NO REACTION JUST BECAUSE THE WORLD NATIONS ALMOST PLEADED INDIA TO STAY CALM .BUT NEXT TIME IF PAK AGAIN TRIES IT THEY MAY BE WIPED OFF THE GLOBE BY INDIA .AGAIN PAK IS THE CREATORS OF THE PROBLEMS .\n\nSO IN MY OPINION IF PAK CAN STOP ALL FORMS OF TERRORISM ANS BUILD THE CONFIDENCE OF INDIA THEN THERE WOULD BE EVER LASTING PEACE IN THE VALLEY.

Pakistan and India are not run by Islamic Extremist that are bent on harming others outside their countries.  These two nations fear each other, but do not threaten Israel, the United States, Russia or Western Europe.  Iran does!

Its purely political. India is a relative friend of ours, if we supply them with nuclear power it evens the playing field with Iran and Pakistan.

All countries are allies... All countries, including Sri Lanka and India, have differences too.

you are. no doubt about it. on one side u are talking about humanity on the other hand Hiroshima & Nagasaki.on one hand you are talking about fighting against terrorism on the other hand you are neglecting(or helping?) Pakistan. on one hand you are asking China to retreat from chinies taipei on the other hand you are occuping Afganistan,Iraq and Iran on the agenda next. you want the world to be under your foot. but never forget Hitler, Musolini, Alexander the great,Japan they all failed. where are you heading for? as far as China, India,Israel is concerned you will be axing the branch on which you are sitting. Pakistan is already under your control.

hi, im pakistani and im NOT anti-hindu or anti-hindustan, infact i got sum friends from india.\n\nyour question is really funny, as far as kashmir concerns, i think more dan 75% pakis give it a dam to kashmir or kashmiris we as a public dont need kashmir or kashmiri public, we just av the opinion that if you just stop hurtin dem we wud be friends again. now if u say indian military dont hurt them den dat wud b the biggest lie, cus my bro, there is no military in this world whos polite or loving or carin\nif americans can rape iraqi women who got 1million opportunities to get women den why wont ur soldiers wud do dat?\nu keep kashmir, but keep it like u are keeping mumbai or delhi, \n2nd thing terrorism, i think if u av a look on stats we in pak av 50% more terrorism attacks than in india, now im not sayin that indian do that, becaue i dont know that they r americans, afghanis or indians,\nu knw both of our curent polititions (not talkin about jinnah or gandhi) are the most curropt ppl of this world, \ni believe they cud kill their own ppl for their reasons so think about it\nif u personally find any terrorist plz ask for his passport.\nif 99%population cud love aishwarya rai and shah rukh khan, and if 100%women can love star plus dramas, why wud dey dislike U?\nu r not different than those hindus who are on showbiz.\n\ni think both of our countries should stop thiking about kashmir, we shudnt say we need it, and u shudnt say u will keep it wiv force, we need more activities to be arranged between both of our countries, so this hatered shall go away from our hearts

To say that Kasmir belongs to India is untrue, even the UN resolution passed wayback says that let the Kashmiri people decide who they want to join.\n\nDuring the seperation process in 1947 Kashmiri people voted to join Pakistan as being Muslim Majority but the Raja at that time sold it to India and that's why Pakistan had to use force to free Kashmir. India controls about 45%, Pakistan around 38% and China around 17% of Kashmir Land.
