F*** both parties.

Sorry about profanity. An excerpt from Yahoo news follows.

Pakistan ruled out joining with rival India for a joint rescue operation for earthquake victims in divided Kashmir. The nuclear-armed neighbors have been bitter rivals since gaining independence from Britain, fighting three wars, although they have taken several steps to improve relations since last year.

Pakistani Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Tasnim Aslam told a news conference in the capital, Islamabad, that "there is no population" right on the frontier that divides the two neighbors, "so ... there is no possibility of joint operations."

India on Sunday offered Pakistan assistance for victims of Saturday's quake, centered near Pakistan's portion of Kashmir. Pakistan on Monday reciprocated with a similar offer for victims in India's portion of Kashmir. Neither offer was likely to be accepted given the rivalry and distrust between the two sides.
