Pretty good breakdown of the unfortunate situation Kashmiris are in due to the insane governments of India and Pakistan. While the extremist Hindus that run India continue to mistreat Kashmiris, Pakistan doesn’t actually help and instead just uses it to inflict damage on India. They claim to care about Kashmiris, but in reality they want to conquer it instead of supporting independence which is what Kashmiris actually want. I suspect that’s also the reason most Muslims outside of Pakistan don’t really care about Kashmir. While their situation is similar to Palestine or the Rohingya, most of what we hear about it is obviously self-serving Pakistani propaganda.
Kashmir is also a good example of why Afghanistan should stop allowing itself to become a front for the Indic wars between Pakistan and India. Neither country is run by mentally stable or rational people, so why do Afghans fight over which side to ally ourselves with? How about neither? Stay neutral and trade with both, but focus on establishing stronger relations with our Muslim neighbors to the north and west.
