Why occupation fails in Afghanistan but succeeds in Kashmir and Palestine (for details click below link) goo.gl/ OYJSRC On July 31, 2014, Kashmir entered its 27th year of armed conflict with the Indian state. While armed struggle has receded over the years, the power of the Indian state has increased in Kashmir. In another part of the world, Palestine was pounded by the Israeli state.

In 35 years, Afghans are on the verge of successfully throwing another superpower out of their country.
