now terrorism has morphed into what it always was, more openly, more brazenly and more shamelessly than ever. with deep anguish I write these lines...yet again our nation has failed before an enemy it is not willing to understand. as this article on south asia analysis says, how dare these sick men preach to us Indians! we are a democracy, however much imperfect we are, we still have noble ideals which we have set out to follow...and what are they? a country built on blood of innocents, who have ethnically cleansed their minorities and till today have no rights for them..a country ruled by dictator donkeys forever and who know no human rights..they preaching to us and claiming to fight for our rights? what audacity!
to quote from the article:
I ask today, as I rage at these terrorists who may not even be citizens of my country, how dare you speak for people of this country? And if it is Babri Masjid and Gujarat that you avenge, how many times should we apologise as a nation and justify your barbarity with heads hung in shame and guilt written on our faces? If we are paying the price for being a tolerant and democratic (although not perfect) nation (there are many dissenting voices tolerated in this country including the voices that speak of hatred against communities of all kinds, voices that talk of revenge and exclusion and voices that are overtly seditious against the state), I reject the guilt, shame and tolerance today for it makes me your ‘enemy’. You punish our innocent people for crimes of a few; and scream hoarse when the ‘innocent’ in your community are held up because of your barbarity. You reject our diversity (of our opinion and politics as well that has defended you and stood for you always), you do not like it when we have spoken with different voices.
I am praying that atleast this latest attack wakes our people up..our leaders up..
well it might take a long time when India can stand up to Islamist terror but I believe in our destinty and no matter how many years it takes, one day we will get there and get there as we are, and not as mirror images of those beasts.
