[Reader-list] advocacy of violence on 'Kafila'

[Aalok Aima]

(someone from) 'Kafila' has now removed the finale lines "Beware, the farce called panchayat elections is round the corner. Throw some stones. Virtual or real. Stop them. You owe this to those 110 warm-blooded martyrs."  
 
(my comment on the lines also has been deleted) 
 
as of this moment, comment by one Tariq is still available "Here I am with a stone in my hand ready to hurl at them."
 
the article including the lines i had highlighted is available (as of now) at:

"Beware, the farce called panchayat elections is round the corner. Throw some stones. Virtual or real. Stop them. You owe this to those 110 warm-blooded martyrs."
 
that "Throw some stones. Virtual or real" is from a  Guest post by HILAL MIR posted by Shivam Vij on 'Kafila' on 23/11/2010 
 
http://kafila.org/2010/11/23/scavengers-pdp-mufti-mehbooba-omar-kashmir-politics/
 
in a thread aarti sethi (of kafila) wrote "Kafila set itself up with a very clear mandate – to articulate and represent voices and views that do not get an airing in the mainstream press."
 
does that articulating and representing voices and views on 'kafila' include providing a platform for the advocacy of violence?
