Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan speaks at the United Nations General Assembly on the blockade India is continuing in Jammu Kashmir. Khan urged the United Nations and the international public to take action.

Khan, who said that he had first called for dialogue with India in August 2018 when he took office, but that his proposals were not accepted due to nationalist rhetoric in the election environment in India.

Khan recalled that India, which had no intention of dialogue with Pakistan, had violated 11 UN resolutions, its own constitution and the Shimla Agreement between Pakistan and India by removing the special status of Jammu Kashmir on August 5.

Khan stated that India increased the number of troops in the region to 900,000 and imposed a curfew on 8 million Kashmiris.

"I just briefly want to make you people understand want is RSS. Narendra Modi is a life member of RSS. RSS was an organization inspired by Adolf Hitler and Mussolini came about in 1925. They believed in racial purity, racial superiority. They also believed they are an Aryan race like the Nazi belie there was an Aryan race.

This RSS believes in the ethnic cleansing of Muslims from India… It was hatred for the Muslims and for the Christians because they believed that this golden age of Hindu civilization was stopped because of Muslim rule centuries back and then the British rule of India.

"This ideology, which massacred 2 thousand Muslims in Gujarat in 2002 and left 150 thousand people homeless, has now imprisoned 8 million people like animals in Kashmir, among them women, children, and patients. If 8 million animals were imprisoned somewhere, there would be an apocalypse here (at the UN)," Khan noted.

"I need to make you understand this background before I explain to you that what sort of mindset would lay siege to eight million people with 900,000 troops. Women, children, sick people...locked in like animals. In fact, of what I know of England, if 8 million animals were locked in, the RSPCA (Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals) would have made a lot of noise about it. These are human beings!" he said.

"Is it arrogance that has blinded him from what is going to happen when the curfew is lifted? Does he think the people of Kashmir will quietly accept the status quo?" Khan said. "What is going to happen when the curfew is lifted will be a blood bath," said Pakistani PM.

Stating that 100 thousand Kashmiris have died in the last 30 years because they have rebelled because the promise has not been kept, Khan added that 11 thousand women had been raped but the world did nothing because India is such a huge market.

"There will be a reaction to this, Pakistan will be blamed, two nuclear-armed countries will come face to face as we came in February," he said.

"If a conventional war starts, anything could happen. But supposing a country seven times smaller than its neighbor is faced with a choice: either you surrender or you fight for your freedom till death. We will fight and when a nuclear-armed country fights to the end it will have consequences far beyond the borders, it will have consequences for the world."

The Pakistani Prime Minister also spoke about Islamophobia during his speech at the 74th session of the UNGA.

"We all know that marginalization leads to radicalization. We must address this issue...Western leaders equated terrorism with Islam."

"In all human communities, there are radicals, there are liberals, and there are moderates. All human communities ... no religion preaches radicalism. The basis of all religions is compassion and justice, which differentiate us from the animal kingdom," Khan said.

"Terrorism has nothing to do with any religion," Khan said. "No one did research that before 9-11, the majority of suicide bombers in the world were Tamil Tigers. They were Hindus."

"No one blamed Hinduism. And quite rightly. What does Hinduism got to do with what desperate people were doing in Sri Lanka?" he said.

"We all know, we've seen films about Japanese 'Kamikaze' pilots at the end of the Second World War doing suicide attacks. No one blames their religion. But here we were, trying to prove we were moderates and not explaining it to the West," he said.

PM Khan said there is a misunderstanding in the West regarding Islam, which is causing Islamophobia in the world.

"There are 1.3 billion Muslims in this world. Millions of Muslims are living in the US and European countries as minorities. Islamophobia, since 9/11 has grown at an alarming pace. Human communities are supposed to live together with understanding among each other. But Islamophobia is creating a division."

"Muslim women wearing hijabs has become an issue in some countries as if a hijab is some kind of weapon. This is happening because of Islamophobia," Imran Khan said.

"Imran Khan said that after the 9/11 attack, Islamophobia grew at an arming rate. Why did it start? Because certain western leaders equated terrorism with Islam, calling it Islamic terrorism and radical Islam. What is radical Islam? There is only one Islam," Imran Khan said.

"This Islamic radicalism has been the main reason behind Islamophobia. This has caused pain to Muslims," Imran Khan said. (ILKHA)
