Pakistan’s Khan says millions of Muslim refugees could flee India
2019-12-18
[ENGLISH.ALARABIYA.NET] Pakistain Prime Minister Imran Khan
...aka The Great Khan, who ain't the brightest knife in the national drawer...
said on Tuesday that millions of Moslems could flee India due to the curfew in the disputed territory of 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....
and India’s new citizenship law, creating "a refugee crisis that would dwarf other crises."

Khan, addressing the Global Forum on Refugees in Geneva, said: "We are worried there not only could be a refugee crisis, we are worried it could lead to a conflict between two nuclear-armed countries."

"Our country will not be able to accommodate more refugees," he added, urging the world to "step in now."

#10  While I'm posting enemy links (New Yorker, 2 Dec.)

Blood and Soil in Narendra Modi’s India: The Prime Minister’s Hindu-nationalist government has cast two hundred million Muslims as internal enemies.

Long read, full of annoying omissions and insinuations (but what isn't?); offered as confirmation rather than contradiction of local opinion.

#5  We did get lucky, Chris. Only in that now we have a list of so many more exposed Leftists and islamists. Enemies and traitors became so much easier to identify now. But nobody's fleeing India.

Indian muslims enjoy liberties even muslims in Saudi Arabia are not allowed. No one flees India, ever in fact. Except for fugitives of course. Imran is just playing on the ignorance of the west about realities in Asia. Trying to drum up a response to the words 'crisis' and 'refugees' before an audience where such things work.

#2  Of course, it would be a horrible loss of diversity for India.

Snark of the day?

#1  "Our country will not be able to accommodate more refugees,"

The population of Pakistain is 218 million. A few more nutters could hardly make a difference. Of course, it would be a horrible loss of diversity for India.
