Hi Lalam Good question - it is not very well written. But to me that it refers to some paramilitary groups who, in their activities to protect borders, have caused some ugly incidents of name-calling and maybe even some violence. The writer is saying that these incidents are evidence that people need to talk peacefully in order to understand each other.
