Trouble flares up in Kashmir, again.
Deeply worrying. I used to see Free Kashmir written on the wall, on the way to school. I asked who he was, and what had he done, or what was he supposed to have done. I thought it must be a bit like, Nelson Mandela. Who is this fella Kashmir? People laughed, and told me it was a place. In fact a place regarded as a paradise by many. And off the conflict there. To be honest, I blame the British. We do it all the time. India, Ireland, Gaza. Divide and conquer, and sell both sides arms. If they fight each other, instead of us, we can get rich, and they can oppress each other. Anyway, like I say, deeply worrying. I hope it gets resolved peacefully and for the best of both parties. |

Check this out. It's 3 minutes of Michael Palin at the India/Pakistan border ceremony. They say pictures speak a thousand words. So I guess it's best to leave these pictures to speak for themselves. Well, that and what I find to be an excellent commentary, from fellow Yorkshire man Mr Palin. The only Python, alongside Graham Chapman, who is, or was, actually a nice guy. |
