Kashmiri Muslims looks up at what is believed to be a relic of Prophet Mohammed's hair at the Hazratbal Shrine in Srinagar, May 25. Since the 15th century, the Himalayan kingdom of Kashmir was known for its beauty and serenity. Everyone from Mughal emporors to British colonialists fell in love with its physical beauty. Since 1989, it has been a state under siege, with both India and Pakistan laying claim to it. Human rights organizations say more than 80,000 have died in the 13 year old conflict. The Indian government says 40,000, but whatever the number, it has been mainly Kashmiri residents who have suffered as the two nuclear armed countries continue their proxy war.
