Hardly a week passes by without someone in Pakistan, or its Indian lackeys like the All-Parties Hurriyat Conference, calling for a solution to the J&K question via the plebiscite route recommended long ago by the United Nations. Why, even some of our byline journalists who've not even read the UN resolutions have cavalierly referred to India's unkept commitment to that plebiscite.

It's no surprise then that the package of lies in the anonymously written article 'Jammu & Kashmir Dispute' on the Pakistan foreign ministry's web site contains the allegation that "despite the decision of the UN Security Council for the holding of a plebiscite... India... refuses to allow the Kashmiris to decide their own future". And to illustrate how, in stark contrast, Pakistan is the angel, the Web site article avers that "a peaceful, negotiated settlement of the Kashmir dispute in accordance with UN resolutions remains on top of Pakistan's foreign policy agenda".
