#1 My cristal ball tells me India will nuke Pakistan and end this conflict forever. Pakistan's back will be broken, but no one will care.

#2 More great info from John. The fact that there was a separation and that some Muslims departed India's borders probably has saved the nation of India and allowed it to progress to the high level it has now achieved. However, they have never dealt severely enough with the load of Pak fools. Maybe John can comment. Is this because there still exists a sizeable minority of Muslims still ensconced within India ? Why are they not made to move to Pakland ? That was their idea to form a separte nation was it not ? Let them/make them reside in their paradise. India has endured many direct attacks on their governments and peoples over the years. And, of course, the festering wound of Kashmir. Identical to Israel and Paleos. Muslims relish turmoil and mayhem and will never stop unless sent off to the happy hunting ground. Why is India so tolerant of these escapades ?

#3 the J&K Jihad is probably not the longest in contemporary Islam (Hindus have been subject to Massacre, ethnic cleansing and other persecution in E. Pakistan/Bangladesh since the early 70s.

Of the the genocide of Hindus on the subcontinent (about 1000 to about 1500) greatly exceeds, both in length and in ferocity, any contemporary Jihad

#4 Why are they not made to move to Pakland ?

Because the Indian leaders at Independence believed in a secular country.

There are muslims in the Indian cabinet. Some states are ruled by muslim chief ministers. There are muslim Generals - it was the muslim Lt Gen Mohhamed Zaki, the head of the Northern Command, who took back Srinagar in Kashmir from the rule of militants in the late 1980s.

Today the richest man in India, Azim Premji the founder of outsourcing firm Wipro, is a muslim.

The President of India, Abdul Kalam, is a muslim.
Kalam is known as "missile man". He designed the first Indian satellite launch vehicles and ballistic missiles. Werner Von Braun himself visited Kalam in India in the 1960s and gave him encouragment. Next year a PSLV rocket, the successor to Kalam's SLV will send an Indian probe to the moon.

There exists today a generation of leaders, some born in what is now Pakistan, who retain fond memories of their life among muslim neighbors in places like Lahore and Karachi.

There are 150 million muslims in India (more than the entire population of Pakistan) and they cannot be made to move anywhere. They are simply too numerous.
