#1 How many years has Pakistan controlled that part of Kashmir? (I could look it up, but it's a lot.) I'd say it's part of Pakistan now until somebody takes it from them. I'd say the Golan Heights are likewise part of Israel. And Arizona is part of the US.

#2 Kashmir originally voted to be a part of India. Orbat has a good section on kashmir from about a week ago.

#3 newc - what 'should be' is not always what 'is', and most of the people who participated in that original Kashmir election have moved on to where they only vote in Chicago. Don't get me wrong - I'd prefer to see it as part of India, but unless India takes it over, it is de facto part of Pakistan.
