Kashmiris are not demonized. We love Kashmiris but not the islamic terrorism emanating from Kashmir.

Kya natak hai arresting innocents.

There's a fundamental problem with Islam that despite being the most followed one, somehow makes it the one that’s always in jeopardy.

At root of all this is the seed of injustice, feeling that injustice has been done.

evey major islamic scholar has given fatwa against suicide bombings and terrorism, idk why young guys like him still think they have a better view of religion than the actual scholars.
