So PM decides to address the nation

At last Manmohas Singh decides to address the nation, no doubt its was high time that someone did what is right

Mumabi : Courage under fire

Is the latest terror attack in Mumbai a success? Hell Yes, I am sitting in Delhi, some 2000 KMs away and I am scared. I am scared to come to my office, I am scared to let my wife go to trade fair pragati maidan, I am scared to call my loved ones in Mumbai for the fear of hearing exactly what I dont want to hear.
Am i angry? yes I am. Suddenly in my anger, i can see Lt Col Purohit as an ideal man to look up to.
Am i upset? Again a big nod for a yelling YES. Where is my prime minister when i need him... will he care to address the nation? will he care to mark this tragic incident with national flag at half mast, is he there at all????

Do any of us Indians have anyone to look upto... ???? I dont want to praise fallen army officers like Purohit, but if we dont have anyone else, i would rather have these fallen angels leading movement out of barraks into 1 raisana hill

The Myth of Hindu Terrorist

No one has ever called IRA memebers a christian terrorist, even LTTE - the pioneers of human bombs dont get called as tamil terrorists then why is Lt Col Purohit be called a Hindu Terror head. If anything he is one hates Muslims - an anti islamic terrorist, but not a hindu one.Islamic terrorists are known so because of their Jihadi inspirations, Lt Col Purohit ( as accused ) never faught a war on pro hindu lines. hell he never called up a news station to claim the responsibility. In his true right as an intelligence officer, he felt he was in middle of a sectarian war and he decided to fight it covertly. If anything - its the failure of government appeasement and inaction both towards minority (all the riots of 1980's/ early 90's) and majority (post godra riots). Goverments cannot fall to the temptation of being represenatatives of any constituency else the unrepresented constituencies would love to wage a war under likes of Lt Col Purohit

Who is Indian terrorist?

Here I would like to talk just about Islamic terrorists - for in modern terminology it seems they are the only ones of the breed.
lets try to answer how long has the discontent among Indian Muslims brewing? was it 1947 partition riots, were it the regular riots of Kanpur/Aligarh of 1980's - was it Babri Musjid in 1992 or was it Gujarat riots?
The matter of fact is that partition of India changed the way nationalist ever looked at nation. Two nation theory was counter seeded. So much so that it was creation of Pakistan that still inspires Sangh parivar to look for a Hindu Rashtra. Problem is except for fundamentalists (both Hindus and Muslims) the world has moved on.
In moder metropolitans of India - name, caste, religion etc are no longer the identification benchmarks. They have been replaced by Designation, capability, potential appearance etc. I belong to one such metro fraternity wherein we work hard to churn wheels of economy.
To us if someone wants to kill indiscreminately, because he finds an enemy in each of us, is unimaginable.
But imagine someone who believes that way of Allah is the most revered one and that Quran has the solution to entire mankind.
You are talking about a brain who thinks 14th century Rules (they are not guidelines ) can guide you through things that even our older generation never heard of. When such a mind is exposed to the reality of world he can either choose to completly give up his teaching (or turn rules into guidelines) or believe that entire world is conspiring agaisnt Allah.
To such minds they are fighting to save Allah against everybody - including those who betrayed their faith. Their problem is pure & simple myopia - who would like to get killed to enjoy naked blondes in Heaven (Jannat ki Hoor).
The only way to rule out this problem is to infiltrate madarsas with modern education. Have the teachings be hotly debated and interpreted, ensure those who question the meaning of Allah's will get their answers.
Till the time this happenswe will have to fight a war that will continue to expand both in length and depth

Republicans give thumbs down to all of us

with 1 trillion of wealth wiped out of US stock markets alone, 700 billion seems a apltry figure. Republicans, being the fools taht they are again managed to put the world into an ever deepening crisis.
A little look at the figures :
