Thanks for the compliments...
aatuif, as an ignorant euro-centricly misinformed "westerener" I'd like to learn a bit more and "indymedia kashmir" is still not online... What's a good source of background info/news on the "region" (other than yourself...)???
whoopie.... relax: meant "in addition" to you, not instead!!!
But now I'm scared - lost all interest in kashmir (thought this was about shakira anyway...what's kashmir?... JUST KIDDING! GIMME INFO!!!!!!!!!!! P L E A S E

what has kiddin' too much to do with me asking for a good news-source??? I started "kiddin'" only after you flew of your rocker!!
But if your news-source is so secret I will ask my MI6 contacts instead of this thread

firstly: why are you always so mean?
Seriously? A good historical "intro" and a good source for "current affairs", as they say...

Ok... I'll be more than glad to give you historical info... But 'current affairs' is a kind of 'debatable' topic...
Are you planning a visit here sooner than later...

No, I'm just someone who likes to learn, always - even if I "kid" a lot!!! And obviously European Media lie about "those places far far away"...
just as they lie about Europe, only more!!!

in a nutshell? (now, don't be offended...)... In a nutshell, it some kind of no-mansland where stupid people live and smart people holiday! (so, it's like most of asia...)... A bit like Ireland in the 70's: terror and hippie tourism... that's why I keep checking indymedia.org - they have announced indymedia kashmir for some time now, but stlii you're diverted from one link to the other... (p.s. "stupid" is my interpretation of the medias portrayal of people who live in so-called "crisis-areas" as professional "victims"... Overall creating the impression in "the west" that it'd be quite lovely "there" once the natives find jobs in call-centres and the tourists can take over... I really am that cynical, but look at my "peers"... However, at least I admit to my media-induced "ignorance" in that respect, and try to "cure" it. Be my doctor!
that is also why your threads title is quite intriguing, by the way...very smart

...and it is totally unbiased, you can take my word for that...
in addition to that, i request you to express your views about kashmir, elaborate on what you have already posted in this thread, that we are a stupid kind of people, that we become cc's and the tourists take over... etc... let's see what kind of a response is there, and how they negate your views by an intellectual discussion...
...& be FRANK; send it to editpage@greaterkashmir.com , and don't forget to send me a copy before mailing it to them... that's important...
