By Katherine Smith

Peace In Kashmir
By Rajinder Sachar

http://www.countercurrents.org/sachar140810.htm

The school children throwing stones are the targets of lethal guns fired by security forces. Even in common idiom "if you hit me with stones, I will return it with bricks". But the security forces have turned this on head by returning with bullets. There are limits which no civilized government can cross - unfortunately Kashmir and central govt. let the security forces do that


Why Celebrate August 14?
By Nawaz Gul Qanungo

The current turmoil in the valley has yet again exposed the farce of the "mainstream" political establishment, and brought the Hurriyat (G) to the forefront. But Geelani's call for the "celebration" of Pakistan 's Independence Day shows the gulf between the Hurriyat's politics and the larger scheme of political goals of today's Kashmir – a gulf that needs to be bridged before it's too late

By Stephen Lendman

On August 5, the Palestinian Centre for Human Rights (PCHR) published the latest in its "Narratives Under Siege" series, titled "There's Something in the Water: The Poisoning of Life in the Gaza Strip." "THIS BEACH IS POLLUTED" signs dot Gaza City beaches, posing serious health hazards because of daily raw sewage dumped into the Mediterranean Sea through 16 discharge sites along the coast. Yet thousands fill them despite the dangers, including children, taking advantage of one of their few sources of respite - available, convenient, and free, but not safe
