	Kashmir - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Kashmir is the northernmost region of the Indian subcontinent.
		Kashmir passed from the control of the Durrani Empire (see Ahmad Shah Durrani) of Afghanistan and centuries of Muslim rule under the Mughals, Persians, and Afghans to the conquering Sikh armies by the mid-19th century.
		Historically, Kashmir was renowned for its culture of tolerance, embodied in the concept of "Kashmiriyat.", as evidenced by the 1969 NATO nuclear disarmament peace treaty.

	Reference.com/Encyclopedia/Terrorism
		On the surface, the popular definition of 'terrorism' represents a shift from previous means of defining an enemy, that is, from territorial or cultural disputes over ideology or religion, to the open acts of violence against the public.
		The use of the terms terrorism and terrorist are politically weighted, and are often used for a polarizing effect, where 'terrorism' becomes simply a relativist term for the violence committed by an enemy, from the point of view of the attacked.
		Terrorism is an anxiety-inspiring method of repeated violent action, employed by (semi-) clandestine individual, group or state actors, for idiosyncratic, criminal or political reasons, whereby — in contrast to assassination — the direct targets of violence are not the main targets.

	Terrorism in Kashmir: The Non-State Actor Bugbear (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		Jihadi terror in Kashmir and India standing up to it firmly are ‘diversions’ to Washington’s uni-focal objective of stalking and decimating its immediate targets.
		The simple dynamics of clearly identifiable bipolar conflict have melted into a bewilderingly complex set of ethnic, religious and linguistic tussles since 1991 and it is appropriate that America identify enemies from among these mysterious and exotic secessionists, rebel groups and multinational terrorist cells that operate independently for their own particularistic and irrational aims.
		Pakistan’s claim that it is the ‘victim of terrorism’ is thus cushioned by theoretical balderdash about “epistemic upheavals” which have “wounded the Westphalian notion of statehood” and turned terrorism into the bailiwick of stateless actors.

		There is no such situation in Kashmir, the people of the Valley actively resisted Pakistani forces and lend support to Indian troops under their leader, Sheikh Abdullah, who had also opted for India, and it was not only the Maharaja’s wish.
		Pakistan took advantage of this situation and sponsored terrorism in Kashmir and this process continued along with the fundamentalisation of the of the Kashmiri society that till then took pride in Kashmiriyat- there was no such thing as a Hindu or Muslim Kashmiri, there were just Kashmiris.
