The big 'T'

What recently happened in Mumbai has forced me to start this blog..to put action to my words atleast..
so any guesses,when is the next terror act hapening??
my answer will be soon..very soon..
as soon we all will get back to aur normal lives and this terror act will go down in our history books..and god forbid 'a movie'..
now whenever I pick up the newspaper, it only makes me realise one thing that it's all a political gimmick now, the blame game has begun..its congress' fault, no let's put it on Pakistan..as if BJP or any other party alone would have done a better job..
I dont know why people don't understand that we have fight it all together..we all have to join our hands..it's our responsibility..only BJP..or Congress cant do anything..
If things remain the way they are now, that time isn't far off when little kids will aspire to be terrorrists..parents will want their kids to be one..as its soo bloody easy..u just enter a big hotel..kill thousands of people..and then live to tell the story..easiest way to fame now a days, isn't it?
Pick up any newspaper and we see the common man mourning..we see their grief, have we seen any terrorrist crying..wailing..WHY NOT?
when will the common man wake up, when will we wake up and take up the responisibility...because its us who are losing lives..because its us who don't roam around in bullet proof cars..because its us who travle in buses, locals, autos..so its our responsibility.
Everyone seems to b veryy angry..whomever you talk to has only one thing to say..'bomb Pakistan'. I dont know why is everyone thinking like this or why can't I bring myself to think like them..I dont blame pakistan as a nation for this or any attack on India..bombing any nation isn't a solution..the only people I do blame is our own self..How could we not see it coming..Why did it take soo much of time to deploy army..Why did such an attack shake us..
Why don't we want to mend our ways,ourselves rather than the outsiders..Have we cleaned our nation..have we?? No we havn't..look at all the pending cases..look at the malegaon case..Whomever we catch also is just a hero in the newspapers..look at Abu salem..I think its clear enough to even little kids that he is a terrorrist..then what is being done about it?? We'll just keep printing his celebrity pics in the newspaper front pages thats it..he made mistakes..killed people..harrassed them and even then his life is 'happily ever after', living like a prince..
Our Law and Order needs a change..its as old as our ministers are..they both need change..when the nation becomes dirty like this, we need to make stricter rules, stricter laws. What kind of democracy are we living in, that we cant even ask for these changes?
"America came together the day it was attacked. The differences of opinion, the debates and the downright quarrelling did take place. But that came later. It was first ensured that, by hook or by crook, any terrorist attack on American soil would be very, very, very difficult to make from ‘that day’ onwards. (The invasion of Iraq was about therapy, not protection.) Here in post-26/11 India, the monkey’s already run away with the cake again that the cats were fighting over." {taken from HT}
I think whoever heard shivraj patil and manmohan singh give their desirable speeches would have understood the above comment.
anyways I can go on and on regarding this (people who know me well, know this too)..but seriously it's time to join our hands and do something about it ourselves rather than waiting for the 'fools' to decide for us,so any ideas are welcomed..and are you all with me in this?
