Right, so its not similar AT ALL. What do they want independence from? I'm sure you could say the Palestinians are just fighting for independence too, but that pesky religion tends to nicely divide the sides again, doesn't it?
Over 3000 people were killed by paramilitary organizations on both sides via bombings and shootings since 1969; I'm sure they're counting their blessing that no one was beheaded, or that their religion is legal.
