Cross Firing on so called 'Cease Fire Line' in the State of Jammu & Kashmir has become a favorite game of Indian & Pakistani Forces. Let me give you examples of blame game of Indian and Pakistani media in beginning:

"Indian Army violated Cease Fire in the State of Jammu & Kashmir, civilians killed, injured." (Pakistan)

"Pakistan violated Cease Fire in the State of Jammu & Kashmir, civilians killed, injured." (India)

So have you ever noticed that who lost dreams, future, innocent lives, properties, became homeless across Cease Fire Line in this 'Holy' Cross-Firing and 'Befitting Replies? Yes, it’s only people of forcibly occupied & divided State of Jammu & Kashmir from both sides of so called 'Cease Fire Line'.

'Luckily', both Pakistan-India are atomic powers & 'Generously' both have occupied & divided State of Jammu & Kashmir since 1947.

Now, finally they should use their atomic weapons to finish ever and each citizen of State J&K to 'liberate' the State from 'occupier' Owners of the State of J&K. This is the only option left by India & Pakistan. Because they both really don't care about their own accepted & signed UN Security Council Resolutions.

The role of so called World Peace Makers including United Nations' Organization is also criminal regarding this oldest conflict in UN. The organization has badly failed until now to provide promised Justice and Basic Humans Rights to people of the State of Jammu & Kashmir.

If we start armed struggle to get freedom from foreign occupation, we'll be labeled as terrorists by the same so called silent peace makers. Although we believe that war isn't a solution of any conflict of the world. It only takes lives and damage properties. But arm sellers and proxy war fighter countries misguide and use our disappointed youth for their personal interests.

Killing State's citizens across 'Line of illegal Control' in cross bombing since 1947 in small & large numbers didn't work to 'Liberate the State from its owners' and obviously it won't work in next 74 years too. So please kill us all (State Subjects of J&K) at once.

We can't afford this forced division of our country J&K, its foreign occupation, abductions of our activists, unlawful killings, and internationally imposed title of the 'Disputed Region'.

Anti-J&K people of Pakistan call Indian agent to Pro-Freedom people of Pakistani occupied side of J&K. Similarly Anti-J&K people of India call Pakistani agent to Pro-Freedom people of Indian occupied side of J&K.

We are really tired of this dirty game of 'Border Border' between India-Pakistan since 1947 in our beloved Country, paradise J&K. We are also humans like humans of rest of the world, but not enjoying our basic humans’ rights guaranteed by UN due to this oldest conflict on the floor of UNSC.

We people of Jammu & Kashmir have a very long history of peaceful, non-violent, resistant struggle for our birth right, the right of Self- determination, right to decide our future & to get our right to live independently with equal dignity in International Community, since birth of Pakistan and Independence of India from British occupation. We want to decide our future, but not a foreign decided future.

When it comes to Right of Self-Determination and UN resolutions, India refuse this right saying "Jammu and Kashmir is integral part of India" in light of Simla Pact (between India and Pakistan only, people of J&K aren't part of it & not bound to follow it legally).

According to India-Pakistan's Simla Pact Jammu and Kashmir is just a territorial conflict between Pakistan and India but not an international issue or issue of the nation of State J&K. According to this, they (India-Pakistan) will resolve this conflict through bilateral talks. According to this notorious agreement, real party, the People of State J&K or UNO & EU can't become part of any kind of dialogue process between both occupier countries Indian-Pakistan.

In Simla Pact, India-Pakistan illegally changed status of an internationally declared "Cease Fire Line" (CFL) to "Line of Control" (LOC) and built international border type wall to divide State J&K permanently. This is the reason, Pro-freedom people of State Jammu and Kashmir call Line of -illegal- Control (LOIC) to their bloody "Line of Control".

Pakistan claims: 'We support Right of Self Determination of people of the State of Jammu & Kashmir.' But do you know which kind of Right of Self Determination that is? 
Pakistan wants people of Princely State of J&K to choose between India or Pakistan only but not Independence. This is what, Pakistan calls "moral, political and diplomatic support of people of State J&K".

Just like Indian false claim i.e. State of J&K is their integral part, Pakistan also claims:
"State of Jammu & Kashmir is jugular vein of Pakistan". Pakistan's imposed act of 1974 in Pakistani occupied side of J&K doesn't allow people of the region to take part in local so called 'Legislative Assembly' Elections without taking oath on an undemocratic and illegal clause of "Merger of State J&K with Pakistan".

According to Pakistani Act of 1974 imposed on POJ&K, people of POJ&K can't become Chief Secretary, Secretary Health, Secretary Finance and Inspector General of Police in their own homeland. All aforementioned bureaucrats are sent by Pakistan Govt to rule over POJ&K.

Pakistani government unconstitutionally separated a constitutional and geographical part of State 'Gilgit Baltistan' from J&K. Pakistan has abrogated State Subject Rule (Citizenship Rule of the State of J&K made by Maharaja Hari Singh in 1927) in Gilgit Baltistan region since 1974 to change demography of the State.

Pakistani government illegally closed all natural geographic routes between Gilgit Baltistan and rest of the State of J&K to physically & mentally divide people of forcibly occupied and divided State. Pakistan gifted a large area of the State (Shaksgam Valley, bigger than current POJ&K) to China from Gilgit Baltistan region. 

Now, Pakistan and China are working on "China Pakistan Economic Corridor". Pakistan don't have border of even an inch of land with China. Pakistani occupied Gilgit Baltistan region of the State J&K is the only gateway for both Pakistan and China for this Economic Corridor but they didn't make people of Gilgit Baltistan region a party of any agreement of this China-Pakistan Economic Corridor. This is economic exploitation of people of the region according to international laws.

Just like India's Armed Forces Special Power Act (AFSPA), Public Safety Act (PSA) and other brutal illegal Acts to suppress voice of people of Indian occupied side of Jammu and Kashmir, Pakiatan also imposed Anti-Terrorism Act (ATA) and '4th Schedule' in Gilgit Baltistan & POJ&K regions accordingly, to use State force to suppress Pro Freedom and right activist voices of the region.

Only few years back, 'Baba Jan', a famous nationalist politician and rights activist of Gilgit Baltistan (G.B) was illegally detained & sentenced to prison for 40 years in jail and he is behind bars along with other political activists, facing unconstitutional sedition charges.
This is just one example of State terror by Pakistan Govt. Many nationalist political activists of Gilgit Baltistan region are forcibly exiled from their own region by Pakistani State for committing crime of "Speaking and Working for their Basic Human Rights in Gilgit Baltistan" region of Princely State of Jammu and Kashmir.

Both occupier countries are criminally violating Basic Human Rights across Line of their illegal Control over the State of J&K since 1947.

Whereas, representatives of both India-Pakistan agreed & signed UNSC resolution of Right of Self-Determination for people of J&K on 13th of August in 1948. According to resolution Pakistan will withdraw all her troops and tribal invaders from the State of J&K in first step.

Because Pakistan invaded the State on 22nd of October in 1947, then India will minimize the maximum number of her troops from the State of J&K. Anyhow according to resolution, India will keep small number of her troops because Indian presence in the State is legal in UN till free & fair Plebiscite, due to conditional affiliation of State with India by Head of the State Maharaja Hari Singh on 27th of October in 1947.

Maharaja Hari Singh called India for help (sent conditional affiliation document) after Pakiatani tribal invasion on his State. (India went to UN to file case against Pakistani invasion on State J&K). Anyways according to aforementioned Resolution, people of State Jammu and Kashmir will freely decide their future in an unconditional and unlimited Plebiscite under the supervision of United Nations' Organization. Both India-Pakistan would be bound to accept the decision made by the people of State J&K in plebiscite.

When the Case of J&K conflict was brought to UN, UN sent military observers' Mission to the State of J&K to watch position of control of both occupiers India-Pakistan. They fixed a Cease Fire Line for both forces not to cross.

In Cease Fire Agreement, it was made clear by UN Security Council that citizens of forcibly divided State J&K can freely travel across Cease Fire Line after identification of their State citizenship without any kind of restrictions. Only forces of both occupier countries are bound not to cross Cease Fire Line. Both Pakistan-India accepted and signed Cease Fire Agreement. But both India-Pakistan don't let the citizens of State J&K travel across Cease Fire Line.

People of both sides of forcibly divided J&K have families across Line of illegal Control.
But occupiers forces of both Pakistan-India don't let them see or meet each other. Many generations of forcibly divided families of this State left the world having dreams of reunification & independence of their Paradise country J&K.

Now let's come back to the topic "Please kill us at once", both India and Pakistan signed Cease Fire Agreement in UNSC but they always violate the Cease Fire. Then, People of the State of J&K are being killed in the name of their befitting replies to each other across of Line of their illegal Control over State Jammu and Kashmir.

People of Jammu and Kashmir are facing world's worst kind of slavery, backwardness, poverty, lack of health & education facilities, insecurities, uncertainties and forced division of their Homeland since India-Pakiatan illegally occupied & divided their Country J&K to steal all the their natural resources.

If you, people of our neighbor countries India & Pakistan, the international community including United Nations & European Union can't force governments of India & Pakistan to withdraw their forces from Country of people of Jammu & Kashmir (84,471 Square Miles),

If you can't force these governments to use taxes of Indian and Pakistani people to "overcome" poverty, hunger & health problems rather than to People of J&K,

If you can't force them to build new schools, colleges, universities, hospitals, scientific research centers/labs for the welfare of tax payers of their countries India-Pakistan rather than competing in making of latest atomic weapons for humans' destruction in J&K,

If you all can't stop them from killings in our State, looting of all natural resources of people of State J&K, from forced division and illegal occupation of the State of Jammu & Kashmir,


In short, if you can't say India-Pakistan to "live and let the people of State Jammu and Kashmir live too", then we, the people of J&K request you all to please force these two atomic powers (India-Pakistan) to use their "Atomic Weapons" to finish us all at once forever.
