Children’s Day: Kids Talk Night Raids, Detentions & Curfew: Kashmir’s New Normal?

"We feel depressed. We wake up to the news of death. This person died, that person died, someone lost their eyesight. My brothers lost their eyesight due to pellet injuries. They went outside but look at what happened. Others have been picked up and detained. There is a special jail for just minors."

Javed*, Student, Class 6

What sort of a morons we became to do this to the kids?

Kids Talk Night Raids, Detentions & Curfew: Kashmir’s New Normal? 

Kashmiri kids as young as 6 talk pellet injuries, illegal detentions and their longing for normal childhood. 

@jamewils When Muslim countries have no problem n there is no backlash against the fascists ruling us, such atrocities will only continue against #Kashmiris and other Indians from the emboldened thugs.
@INCDilSe @jamewils why are we looking outwards and with this "Muslim countries should object" point of view. It's a terrific calamity. This is fast becoming a Holocaust! 😠

@ashwin_baindur @jamewils Secular Liberal India is at war against fascists who are bringing a bad name to our Republic defined by the 1950 Constitution.

So in the war we need allies. Right now only the Gulf Arab Muslim nations can pressurise the GOI because they employ 7 million Indians and supply more than half of our crude imports. GOI has already bought their silence by offering the Butcher of Saudi a stake in India's oil security. Employers in GCC should know v what RSS is.

@INCDilSe
Don't look toward Muslim countries, it is a humanitarian crisis of immense proportions. It's a collective shame on us as a nation.

Then international politics is driven not by ethics but other self interests and strategic concerns.

@jamewils

I've a lot to say on the war against the fascists but I won't reveal them here in public.

For now I'll only say that after all the pillars of our democracy have fallen to the fascists we have no option but to seek outside help.

@jamewils I'll also tell this in public.

Till now India's minorities looked up to the secular liberals from the majority community to safeguard the Constitution of India but the majority has failed.

So it is time for India's minorities to take up the fight against the fascists.

@jamewils

Whatever small chances we had of Kashmir voluntarily staying with India are fast vanishing... if not completely vanished...

@jamewils
What sort of a morons we became to do this to the kids?
The sort of morons who become Nazis and commit genocide of Jews.
The sort of morons who think kill innocents in the name of religion. The sort of morons....well the list is long
