Pakistan President Pervez Musharraf on Wednesday night condemned "human rights violations" in Jammu and Kashmir but in a speech to his nation didn’t speak about the Government’s plan to impeach him.
"Every Pakistani is with our brothers and sisters in Srinagar. Kashmir beats in the heart of every Pakistani," Musharraf said in a speech on the eve of Pakistan's independence day.
Musharraf's remarks came hours after the Pakistan government said it was contacting the UN and would ask it to take note of the violence in Kashmir.
Musharraf described as "martyrs" the 21 people who died in the violence in Kashmir in the last couple of days.
Mushrraf's comments appeared to be an attempt to divert attention of his countrymen from the impeachment threat he was facing in Parliament.
Where were the humar rights violation cries during the 80's and 90's when Kashmiri Pundits were slaughtered and driven out of their own homes and asked to leave their women behind for the pleasure of these very same "brothers and sisters" ??? If they cant answer that then musharraf and his hypocritical countrymen need to shut up and worry about the NWFP region where al-qaeda still operates freely.
