#1 The Hurriyat is an alliance of a couple dozen non-violent political parties, unions, etc. that all support either independence for Kashmir, or it's accension to Pakistan.
It includes the front organisations for many Jihad outfits, and for the past decade it's leaders have been able to live a life of luxury due to siphoning off of funds that they were meant to pass on to the Jihadis.
Recently, the Hurriyat split, with the hardline, pro-Pakistan elements affiliated with the Jamaat-e-Islami split off. The moderates dominate the alliance now, although due to their obvious corruption they have little support amongst those Kashmiris who do want independance.
