Let us kick out Kashmir

For for the sake of sanity please let me know why we are keeping it- is it because it offers us some strategic advantages, against Pakistan, and in the absence of that the rag tag army of Pakistan is going to run over us. OR is it just that we are still living in the medieval feudal mindset which evokes the responses of most territorial animals,  like Duryodhana where we can wage the whole Mahabharat and would not give up land equal to proverbial "point of needle"? Is there any self respect left among us? We are trying to woo Kashmiris with immense wealth. Can any one justify that we are spending far more money on "these India hating as well secular democracy hating, foaming at mouth and going to street whenever Islam is even slightly rationally treated anywhere in the world, and are not ready to lease even 40 acres of land to the infidels, while they have successfully ethnically cleansed the non muslims from the valley, and even when Indian government is bribing them to all its capacity, still even the most educated ones among them, those getting professional education in medical colleges or engineering colleges across India wants either to go with Pakistan or to be free of us, and many of them wants to revert to seventh century way of living outlined in Koran" then those starving still being proud and loyal Indians living on our footpaths and our severely malnourished children.
Why we are paying billions to protect Kashmiris  and forcing our military to do Police's jobs while in the same amount we can not only radically develop our outdated antiquated Police force and secure our cities, which Islamic Mujahideens have shown in July, 2008, that they can strike at their pleasure.

Let us face this. More than 90 % of us population of Kashmir is Muslim and this is the state which borders with Pakistan. Islam is a political religion and it would never reconcile in the country which is being ruled by infidels or secular constitution. For them Koran is the word of God and there can not be any compromise on that. While most of us might choose to delude with the government propaganda, the fact remains that separative tendencies are very strong in Islam and Kashmir being no exception, most of them are for freedom, and even those who are slightly Pro India, like Abdullas, they too want a special case of autonomous Kashmir.

Let us not fall for that farce of "Kashmiriyat" propagated by government and mainstream media. The fact is that valley is almost "ethnically cleansed", thousands have been murdered by terrorists and there have been gross abuses of human rights in the name of counter terrorism efforts. 

Instead why not divide J&K in three divisions, and have referendum there. I am sure Jammu and Ladakh, would chose to be with India. Why not leave Kashmir, and let them live the way they want to live; and spend the same amount on millions of starving poor children of India, who wants to be educated, who wants to question everything-from religion to God, to society and create an intellectual force who can be an asset to not only India but the whole humanity.

I am sure there would be many reasons to oppose my view, but let us discuss whether they are valid or not instead of accepting what our mass hysteria tells us.

Though your point of view is reasonable, it is not feasible.

Aim of the so called islamist forces is not 'Kashmir'; they want to convert everybody to Islam by any means. If you give them Kashmir today, this would boost their morale for creating problems in other part of country. If their interest is only Kashmir, then why are they killing innocent peoples in other part of India.

Philosphy of Islam is flawed for holistic society. They will not tolerate anyother religion/faith to co-exist. People of this mindset will not cease their activities. The only way is to confront, either by force or by peace.
