500 Protests, Hundreds Injured in Kashmir Lockdown
2019-08-29
[AnNahar] At least 500 incidents of protest have broken out in Indian Kashmir
...a disputed territory lying between India and Pakistain. After partition, the Paks grabbed half of it and call it Azad (Free) Kashmir. The remainder they refer to as "Indian Occupied Kashmir". They have fought four wars with India over it, the score currently 4-0 in New Delhi's favor. After 72 years of this nonsense, India cut the Gordian knot in 2019, removing the area's special status, breaking off Ladakh as a separate state, and allowing people from other areas to settle (or in the case of the Pandits, to resettle) there....
since New Delhi revoked its autonomy more than three weeks ago, a senior government source told AFP Wednesday, as authorities promised to create 50,000 jobs in the restive region.

The Himalayan valley is under a strict lockdown, imposed hours before India's decision to bring Kashmir under its direct rule. Movement is restricted and phone and internet services have been cut.

#4  I understand, Dron66046, truly. Which is why I offered your link in another form, one that doesn’t interact with my personal hypersensitivity. Bad guys don’t stop until they know themselves defeated, and physical humiliation is a quick road to accomplish that without major physical harm or death.

I am grateful to the rough men and women who do what must be done to keep us safe. My role lies in doing my bit to make sure there is something to come home to afterward.

#3  Yes. In retrospect, it was an upload in rather bad taste. I'll spare you from more in the future.

But you see now what we must descend to sometimes to protect unwitting bystanders and uniformed nine to fivers from being suddenly blown apart by these things. Actually, the military never tortures tangos, we call the police reserves to do that. Some of these police grunts develop issues along the way, most of them end up shooting themselves, divorced loners, broken minds in later ages. The best ones can compartmentalize and adjust.

The shying away from torture and liquidation by 'civilized' States has only led to more audacity over the years. Trump is not wrong when he talks about torture for these things, although even he's stopped stressing on that. They are low down, hedonistic criminals every one of them. Justifying their subjugation of the weak, extorting poor families, abusing women their whole lives, they are fighting for their right to live in a goon paradise. To rob, rape and murder anybody who dares even frown at them. To be Saddam Husseins in their own little Iraq. One has to dredge up this perspective when the screams hit the walls.

You can't fight them without hatred. But that always costs you more than the enemy. For the enemy it's easy. His bloody book tells him it's all A-Ok with the Man Upstairs. In his eyes he's doing great, to his wife and mother he's a bloody hero !

I wish Gawd would show hisself suddenly and clear things up... Gaaah !

#2  The video is here. I’m not sure why it isn’t visible, but it really isn’t for the wimmin sensitive. Three seconds was all I could handle, and I wish I hadn’t. If those moderators capable of fixing the thing please don’t, that would be preferred.

#1  only the few who got violent were maimed, these also have below the waist (non-fatal) injuries.

Probably from this. Standard interrogation of a Kashmiri protesterjihadist. Note the nifty 'butt-paddles'. We are so open-minded about torture that they are mass manufacture by a factory as 'police supplies'.

Right click on video and select Play. Not for wimmin though.



They're asking him for names of conspirators, who paid him to protest among other stuff. A wiseass also asks him to call on Allan for help.

Now imagine doing that to antifa.
