Kashmir should be part of Pakistan

Kashmir has been at the frontline of the rivalry between Pakistan and India ever since 1949, when a war between the two nations left it divided. Asif Ali Zardari, the President of Pakistan, says that it is his country’s “jugular vein”. The recent terrorist attacks on Mumbai have raised fears that rising tensions might provoke another war over the issue. As India and Pakistan are now nuclear powers, the stakes in resolving the conflict are higher than ever.
