Sopore killings have united chronic separatists and secessionists, who were otherwise literally hunting for blood of each other. They have made a common cause to launch a stir against broad-day killings of Syed Ali Shah Geelani’s men and former terrorists. They are finding alibis to save the ultras who have now taken ‘Kashmir terrorism’ to new phase of gang rivalries. This
is the ultimate end and truth of gun culture, wherever it has flourished or promoted to derive political objectives. Is it a matter of pride or shame for the separatist amalgam to protest over the killings and at the same time shield the killers, as part of
Pakistani version of Jihad?
