India has nearly as many troops in Kashmir to repress 8 million Kashmiris as the US & Russia each have active duty soldiers & still it cannot destroy the spirit of resistance. Indian militarism is consuming resources that could be used to build a modern sanitation system, public schools, & provide for child welfare. In the long run, Indian militarism will be defeated but millions of human beings will have paid a terrible price. The struggle of Kashmiris includes the struggle for the soul of India against fascism.
