A senior leader of the Pakistan Muslim League said that action against Pakistani groups will have no impact on the Kashmir freedom struggle. Muhammad Ejaz-ul Haq said he that Kashmir's "freedom struggle," being indigenous, would be unaffected by Pakistani government measures. The senior PML vice-president said, "Killing of over 80 thousand Kashmiri people during the armed struggle was a testimony to the fact that it [the movement] was indigenous and Pakistan was extending only moral and diplomatic support to the Kashmiris. You saw reports of Egyptians, Palestinians and people from other countries being killed in Afghanistan but no such instance could be traced in Kashmir."
On the other hand, there are lots of Pakistani dead, and the planning and money boys aren't necessarily the same as the trigger boys. |
