For the veteran Kashmiri freedom fighter and leader of the Hurriyat, it all black and white. He wants Bharat to end the occupation so that Kashmir can join Pakistan. At a recent procession he said Pakistan hamara haiaur hum Pakistani hain (Pakistan is our and we are Pakistani).
Syed Ali Gilani resisted Pervez Musharrafs attempts to sell out Kashmir on the alter of better relations, borders are irrelevant and autonomy. The Lion of Kashmir is old, but his mane is made up of integrity, honesty and a belife system that could stand up to those who wanted to shift from the principled stand on Kashmir.
Syed Ali Gilani made it clear that the people of Kashmir had not given sacrifices for perks and packages.
Even if India lays gold on our roads it cant heal our wounds. India has been exploiting our natural resources for the last 63-years, he added.
The veteran Hurriyet leader warned India of dire consequences if the convict in a false case of parliament attack, Afzal Guru was hanged.
There will be such a public uprising in Kashmir which India will not be able to control if Guru is hanged, he added.

SRINAGAR (Indian Occupied Kashmir): In occupied Kashmir, the authorities arrested veteran Kashmiri Hurriyet leader, Syed Ali Gilani in Srinagar and shifted him to Humhama police station on Saturday, reports KMS.
The move was made following the killing of an 11th class student, Tufail Ahmed Matoo, by Indian police. Tufail was killed while dozens other people were injured when the police resorted to brute force to break up peaceful demonstrators in Srinagar on Friday.
Earlier, Syed Ali Gilani addressing a gathering at Ompora in Budgam said that the US should support the Kashmiris right to self-determination if it was sincere to resolve the Kashmir dispute.
The veteran Hurriyet leader, while reacting to the US Assistant Secretary of State, Robert Blacks statement, said, America should stress more on giving right to self-determination to Kashmiris than Indo-Pak dialogue.
He said that Kashmir was not a border dispute between Pakistan and India but it was an issue pertaining to the future of millions of Kashmiri people and the international community should support Kashmiris struggle for plebiscite instead of issuing ambiguous statements.
