India police jail 21 Kashmiris amid pro-Palestinian rallies
2021-05-16
[AlAhram] Police said in a statement they were keeping a ’close watch on elements who are attempting to leverage the unfortunate situation in Paleostine to disturb public peace and order’ in 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....

Police in Indian-controlled Kashmir said Saturday that 21 people were arrested for disturbing public order by expressing solidarity with Paleostinians and holding protests against Israel's military offensive in Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamaswith about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response...

Police said in a statement they were keeping a ’close watch on elements who are attempting to leverage the unfortunate situation in Paleostine to disturb public peace and order’ in Kashmir. The statement said police were ’sensitive to public anguish’ but wouldn't allow those sentiments to ’trigger violence, lawlessness and disorder’.

Kashmiris have long shown strong solidarity with Paleostinians and have often staged anti-Israel protests when fighting broke out in Gaza.

Police inspector-general Vijay Kumar told news hounds that 20 people were arrested in Srinagar, the region's main city, and one from a village in southern Kashmir.

A police officer, speaking anonymously in line with department policy, said the 21 were arrested for social media posts, taking part in anti-Israel protests and making graffiti in solidarity with Paleostinians in Gaza and Jerusalem.

Some of the arrested could be soon released after ’counseling and assurances from their parents that they would desist from such acts in future,’ the officer said.

The officer said the arrested include Sarjan Barkati, a Moslem holy man and a prominent anti-India activist, as well as an artist. The artist was arrested for painting pro-Paleostinian graffiti on a bridge in Srinagar on Friday showing a woman wearing a scarf made of a Paleostinian flag and a tear tricking from her eye, with the words: ’WE ARE PALESTINE’. The graffiti was later painted over by police.

Since Monday, Israel has pounded the Gaza Strip with Arclight airstrike
...KABOOM!...
s and Paleostinian Death Eaters have fired hundreds of rockets into Israel. The latest round of fighting between the bitter enemies has already begun to resemble _ and even exceed _ a devastating 50-day war in 2014.

During that war, large anti-Israel protests erupted in Kashmir, which often morphed into festivities with demands of an end of India's rule over the region and causing dozens of casualties.

Relations between Hindu-majority India and Israel have long been viewed with suspicion and hostility in Kashmir, and Israel has also emerged as a key arms supplier to India.
