Dear All
Many will know I've been exasperated at Pakistan's lack of actual action in the Kashmir issue. Kashmir is in what I would call an " Emergency state" and Pakistan continues to behave as though it's just another day of human rights violations. I'm persistently troubled by the high number of civilian casualties. India seems to get away with it all.
The closest Pakistan has got is to finally put forward a conflict resolution model. Here it is. We read it in the paper but where is the actual document?
Was this presented to the Secretary General of the UN? How exactly will this model be implemented? Has Pakistan addressed the fact that " dialogue" is never going to be successful with a fascist government like India. If so what is the alternative for Kashmir? There is no point screaming dialogue if India's left the building.
Imran Khan has made a fantastic speech https://timesofislamabad.com/27-Oct-2018/pm-imran-khan-s-strong-message-on-kashmir-black-day but speeches aren't enough anymore.
I am going to ask these questions again
1. Where is the emergency UNSC meeting for Kashmir? Palestine seems to have them but Kashmir does not .See https://www.presstv.com/Detail/2018/05/15/561836/Israel-Gaza-UN
2. Where is the resolution for the full Inquiry for Kashmir at the UNHRC? Countries can't vote without a resolution. The international community can't take action without a resolution at the Human Rights Council. Yemen got it's resolution and vote despite it being a relatively new conflict. Kashmir is a 70+ year conflict.
3. Where is the ICJ application for self determination? If Pakistan is dithering on this application, have Kashmiris sought legal advice from an international lawyer
4. Critics of the Indian fascist state have been taken down directly and indirectly. The latest casualty is Kashmir supporter and campaigner Bea. India clearly finds her Twitter account a threat and has banned it. India is exerting it's pressure on governments to get many critics and campaigners shut down. Where is Pakistan's support for us all? It's nowhere to be seen. India's powerhouse propaganda is allowed uncontrollably to destroy Kashmir. It's also destroying Pakistan and it's reputation.
5. India has slithered it's way into the Human Rights Council? Where was the rabid objection from Pakistan? Nowhere again.
6. It is commonly known that mass complaints to the UNHRC triggers inquiries and investigation. It's well known that campaigning to the UNHRC achieved results. Certainly the African countries manage it. Even though India has banned a UNHRC visit, there are still calls by various people in Pakistan for the UNHRC to arrange a fact finding mission. Well, one can't do that if one is blocked from entering. The information must therefore reach the UNHRC. Is Pakistan doing this? Is anyone in Kashmir doing this?

Is there an ambush of complaints from Kashmir? Well, no there isn't. Why isn't there?
Futhermore, Pakistan remains tight lipped on trade sanctions
We have an Emergency situation in Kashmir with no Emergency Response. While the Pakistani Military does it's best to raise Kashmir, I have my reservations about Pakistan's diplomatic fraternity.
I've always felt that despite Pakistan's immense talents, we never see a proper robust emergency plan from its UN diplomatic fraternity. In the interim, life after life is being lost. Blood is everywhere in Kashmir. The male population is dwindling. It seems as though no one cares enough to stop this bloodshed. Not the UN, and not the Pakistani diplomats. It's time they all did. It's time to make liberty a priority.
