Surprisingly silent on Kashmir issue

I find the silence of the Jihadi groups that specialised in Kashmir very interesting. I understand Hafiz Saeed is custody but he was hardly the only member. These groups have deep roots and had been training members since late 80s and 90s.

I'm sure they all didn't just disappear into the ether because Hafiz Saeed was taken in to custody.

Some of their soldiers were next level commando types - and super motivated. My guess is that they had at least trained in the 10s of thousands over the years if not more.

Apart from the fighters they actually had members and workers in most of the country. These workers were trained to raise funds and organise rallies and such. These people would've been on the roads the day this whole thing went down.

They were capable of creating a lot of noise. Yet they are completely silent.

I find their lack of noise very interesting.

Oh the man should look into the history of loyalty and betrayals...

I found this article which was published yesterday (31 August 2019).
I know it is an Indian source, but read it anyway.

Terrorist threats against opening schools, shops in Kashmir: Army

Terrorist groups have threatened locals in the Kashmir valley against opening shops and schools through posters put up in various areas, the Army said.

Women have also been threatened against going out through these posters.

The terror threats came after Parliament, earlier this month, withdrew the special category status to Jammu and Kashmir by reading down Article 370 of the Constitution and divided the state into two Union territories. The Valley has been under unprecedented security cover ever since August 5, with most areas still without any communication lines.

Posters belonging to terror outfits Hizbul Mujaheedin and Lashker-e-Taiba have been recovered, army officials said.

In a poster of Hizbul Mujaheedin recovered from Kulgam district, locals have been warned against plying their private vehicles on roads, the army said.

"We have registration numbers of certain private vehicles that are still plying on the roads and we issue a final warning to their owners. No schools should be opened. No woman should be seen on the road. Keep your womenfolk inside your houses," says one of the posters.

According to officials, traders have been warned by terrorists particularly in the last two weeks of August from carrying out business.

Officials said that on August 21, three terrorists had threatened traders in the Aishmuqam market in Anantnag against opening their shops. On the same day, four terrorists had threatened traders in Pulawama district against sending fruit outside Kashmir.

On August 24, militants had threatened traders in Anantnag against opening shops and the next day, three terrorists had threatened orchard owners against selling pears. On August 27, terrorists had threatened traders that their shops will be burned if they opened them.

On Friday, unidentified bike-borne militants opened fire upon a shopkeeper in Parimpora area of Srinagar. The victim, Ghulam Mohammed, 65, succumbed to his injuries in a hospital.

Let us assume that this is true.

The Jihadi groups are apparently not silent against the Kashmiri people.

I know the Jihadi groups have a strict interpretation of Islam, which explains why they do not want any women to be seen outside.

But why could the men not open their shops and trade? Why must the schools be closed?

Do they not want the Kashmiri people to go on with their lives?

What exactly is their strategy?

Perhaps, they know that the time for their action is in the offing.

The less they talk, the more nervous India will be.

the most important ingredient of gorilla attacks is surprise. With Indian government in a fully prepared mode why would any terrorist group attempt any attack; I also read somewhere that any FATF decision will be conditional, so whatever 'influence' govt of Pakistan may have on these groups would actually be a leverage AGAINST terror attacks.

Must of these brainwashed jihadi groups turn against state anyway. A militant Kashmiri fighting for freedom of his land vs brainwashed ISIS jihadi going from Pakistan.. Remember jihadis don't care about civilians, they will quickly turn opinion of average Kashmiri against Pakistan. This already happened in 90's.

Even many lovers of taliban in Pakistan changed their views few years after their onslaught.

Apart from the fact that Pakistan cannot control Pulwanas done by Kashmiris like Wani. As far militants crossing over, that stopped after Musharraf joined war on terror. Though Pakistan left alone all these Kashmir jihadi organisations in Pakistan. But even that is no longer the case.

So expect even more Pulwanas as India start ethnic cleansing of Kashmiris.
