Cypher dear, we are not talking of what Gillani wants or not, the issue at hand is if the news piece was fabricated, misquoted or false.
i respect your views, and you probably are right that leaders do try to manupilate the facts for personal gains, and this also becomes clear from the same news link where it says:
"Earlier, Geelani had appealed people to protests against the controversial anti-Islam film, made in the US, which rocked several parts of Kashmir on Friday. But there was no violence reported from anywhere in the Valley even as authorities had placed top resistance leaders under preventive detention to maintain law and order."
So the guy probably wanted to make a mountain out of a mole, but then again we are not discussing this point, the agenda at hand raised by you wrothy members of PDF was that just because the news links to a 'Kashmiri' website and just because the accusations were made by Gillani, the news or for that matter his accusations were just picked up by media without any justification and this resulted into a lie circulating the inter-webz.
So i was just looking for a clarification from them, which after an exchange of 4 posts is much awaited.
