I love international news, especially when it's from non-American sites. I'd like to ask that everyone list ones they know of.
One's I frequent.

www.dawn.com /*Pakistan news*/
www.timesofindia.com /*interesting to see the way these two cover Kashmir*/
www.deccanherald.com /*another Indian site*/
www.russiatoday.com

There isn't much Kashmir coverage in the Pakistan newspaper.
Could it have anything to do with the fact it appeares pakistan is the agressor?

Are you sure? Everytime I go there, most of the front page articles are about Kashmir, the Indian military actions, Pakistani/Indian artillery duels, etc.
Speaking of Kashmir, did anyone notice how India and Pakistan are constantly calling for a multi polar world, and that they will not take orders from anyone (ie the US), yet as soon as this started, both went to the US for validation of their side.
Something I noticed.

No, I am not sure, I just visited the paper first time today.
It is just that at this point, where the "war" seems to draw the most attention I couldn't find much coverage.

Well, that's not necessarily true. You guys are having that referendum on becoming a Republic later this year, true? What's your opinion on that, and how do you think it will turn out?
