  • Conflict Transformation in Kashmir-III
    Journal of Peace Studies, Vol. 12, Issue 4, October-December 2005 Conflict Transformation in Kashmir-III Riyaz Punjabi* [*Professor Riyaz Punjabi is President (Hony.), International Centre for Peace Studies, New Delhi. He teaches in the Centre for the Study of Social Systems, Jawaharlal Nehru University, New Delhi, India.] In the last two parts of this ongoing study, an attempt was made to look inward to locate the roots of the conflict within the J&K state. The study also looked at the political developments which laid an impact on the stateÊs relations with the Union of India. However, the conflict in Kashmir has external linkages too. The present analysis shall deal with the external aspect of the conflict in Kashmir. Backdrop Pakistan has been claiming Kashmir on the basis of ÂTwo NationÊ theory in which the sub-continent was divided on religious lines and the State of Pakistan was created. The Pakistani scholars claim that gradually Kashmir got intertwined in the strategic and defense doctrine of Pakistan. However, this approach ignores the legal arrangements which were evolved to demarcate the boundaries between India and Pakistan as a consequence of the accord to divide the sub-continent on religious lines. That a formula was also devised for the Princely states which were not under the direct control of British government to accede to the either dominion is not taken into cognisance. This approach equally ignores the political developments in J&K state between1940 when Pakistan resolution was adopted by the Muslim League and the 1947 when Pakistan was actually created. It may be mentioned here that Kashmir was not a party to the ÂTwo NationÊ theory advocated by Muslim League.

  • Indian False Flag Operations
    Center for Global & Strategic Studies Islamabad INDIAN FALSE FLAG OPERATIONS By Mr. Tauqir – Member Advisory Board CGSS Terminology and Genealogy The term false flag has been used symbolically and it denotes the purposeful misrepresentation of an actor’s objectives or associations. The lineage of this term is drawn from maritime affairs where ships raise a false flag to disguise themselves and hide their original identity and intent. In this milieu, the false flag was usually used by pirates to conceal themselves as civilian or merchant ships and to prevent their targets from escaping away or to stall them while preparing for a battle. In other cases, false flags of ships were raised to blame the attack on someone else. A false flag operation can be defined as follows: “A covert operation designed to deceive; the deception creates the appearance of a particular party, group, or nation being responsible for some activity, disguising the actual source of responsibility.” These operations are purposefully carried out to deceive public about the culprits and perpetrators. This phenomenon has become a normal practice in recent years as rulers often opt for this approach to justify their actions. It is also used for fabrication and fraudulently accuse or allege in order to rationalize the aggression. Similarly, it is a tool of coercion which is often used to provoke or justify a war against adversaries. In addition, false flag operations could be a single event or a series of deceptive incidents materializing a long-term strategy. A primary modern case of such operations was accusation on Iraqi President Saddam Hussain for possessing weapons of mass-destruction ‘WMD’, which were not found after NATO forces, waged a war on Iraq.
