Soon after the earthquake that killed thousands of Kashmiris and left many more homeless, soon after the Indian armed forces launched an all out rescue and relief effort, in spite of the United Jihad Council having announced a ceasefire, soon after the Moderate Mirwaiz having pricked consciences, soon after a leading Indian newspaper renewed its call for a halt to counter-terrorism operations in Jammu & Kashmir, a woman suicide-bomber belonging to the Jaish-e-Mohammed blew herself up in an attempt to disrupt traffic flow at a national highway. She failed to reach her target, and the highway remains intact.
Just as Dan said. But this was not the first time that the jihadis resorted to suicide-bombing when the security forces were out doing humanitarian relief duties — they did so earlier this year, when snowstorms killed hundreds in Kashmir.
What ceasefire? This is the time to wipe out the jihadi menace for good.
