Not really.

My point is that Pakistan and Pakistanis should be primarily concerned with problems at home, of which there are plenty.

Since Pakistan claims Kashmir, it is logical for it to express concern over territory that it considers potentially its own.

I agree with your statement.Stretching it further can't one say that Kashmir needs development and if a similar situation occurs in Kashmir, then you would support the cause of development

Sure - if a Kashmiri Muslim shrine were to be submerged, and there was no alternative, then as in this case I would not be opposed to the misconstructions.

If Hardliners in BJP come to power, GoI's policies would be that India Claims entire Pakistan, then again like as in this case, none in Pakistan should have problems - by your token that is

From what I understand, you already claim all of J&K - or is the current official Indian position that AK is Pakistani territory?

Re-Read my statement again. I am talking about GoI Changing its position and stating that not just AK but entire Pakistan[Islamabad included] is Indian territory.

The world is not what you think or claim to be. J&K is part of India,if you have problems with that, try another Kargil but oops, you cant do another Kargil as the entire NLI is dead from the days of last kargil

Refer to the Indian and Pakistani controlled territory as IOK, POK or Timbuktu for all I care.

I used the reference I am comfortable with.

If you don't like it ignore it.

When you can get the world to agree that "entire Pakistan" is disputed territory, and the UNSC to pass resolutions indicating the same, then you can talk.

Better luck flaming next time.

AM,
Dont take it personal but I have a Question for you.
Would you be so comfortable to do all things as you wish were you not in Auburn Hills and were you in Pakistan.

The reason I ask is that I get to see a lot of posters from China and Pakistan that claim things we all know is just bogus eg., freedom of expression in China and yet everyone is like you, posting from either US or Canada or some other Western country?
