Naxal Bad

One more bad news. Dont blame me for posting depressing R.I.P items. I do my tuppence bit by making the good guys know the bad things. One such atrociously absurd movement is the Naxalite or Maoist. Are these guys mad or something. I am willing to reads tomes on them, because I completely fail to fathom their logic or lack of thereof!
Anyways.. I wanted to talk about this horrendous act by the Maoist. Three things made me post this here
1. It happened at the place where I was born
2. My irritation with Naxalites in general
3. The Talibanesque leanings of this heinous act.

Lankans Attacked

The news of the past few days is the terror attack on the Sri Lankan cricket team. Astonishing. I am baffled at the terrorist framework in Pakistan. They appear to have perfected a system of planning and implementing focused attacks. Left me wondering what would have happened had that rocket not missed the bus or the grenade thrown below the bus exploded or one of the terrorist got on board the bus!!

This attack was copy of Mumbai attacks of Nov. Whats frustrating is not even one terrorist was wounded and all fled in the bylanes of Lahore. How disgusting and shameful. Wake up Pakistan.

I am not a cricket fan and dont even know the Sri Lankan cricketer names, but its clear the terrorists mean business. Attacking an international sports team should be deeply condemned and I would be happy if this leads to complete sporting isolation of Pakistan. What's wrong with you guys, one day entire Marriott is blown to smithereens, the other day sporting guests are attacked. Pathetic.. if its in the name of religion. Dont know what's the motif.

Update: AND it appears the blame is being put on India !! ha ha ha .. oh my gosh .. listening to Pakistani logic is more funny than watching Mr. Bean. Ha ha ha.. haa aaa

Twin Terror Tales

This and this

Two recent terrorist strikes in civilian places, the first one atrocious one the eve of Id at Ajmer Dargah. As I always say, humans suck.

I havent been to Ajmer (though have had an opportunity). I felt some obligation on my part to educate people about Ajmer Sharif partly to bring out in obstrusive glare this heinous, unpardonable crime. During my stay in Rajasthan, another colleague was assigned that territory and had visited Ajmer. He came back with stories which left us boys amazed. Ajmer is probably the only place in India which has never had communal riots. At the dargah of Khwaja Moinuddin Chisti, Hindus and Muslims both pray together. Its a perfect God is one abode.

Now I am not an evangelist sent to cleanse all ills in this world. If there does exist such a job, its mine gladly. But I certainly believe its karmic philosophy to do one's little bit to make this world a better place for the future generations. Anyways, human life on earth, earth itself will die one day.

Pray, all those who drop by this post reflect for two secs on those who lost their lives. It could have been your loved ones or you yourself!. The convenience of lack of knowledge wether Ludhiana is in east or west India does not unfortunately allow us to treat the truth with nonchalance. Truth is that the only certainty in life is death! Let us all respect it, more than fear it.

My eternal scream: Live but please let live.
