Hit where it hurts the most...

A forwarded e-mail best served on the platter of public buffet than a personal serviced e-mail ...

The pusillanimous, inept, to be damned in hell Government and the vociferous citizens.
The bombs leaving public in tatters and the country weeping, while the politicians cry about Peace and wot not.
De-weed the garden. Hit the root.

Have a few minutes to read this!!
GOOD MORNING FRIENDS!!!


I am an Indian citizen. One among 1 billion of us. When somebody bombs
us we die. Just like Americans did when the Al Qaeeda drove their
planes into the WTC. Just like Londoners did when terrorists attacked the
city last July.
But while Americans have the right to retaliate and bomb Afghanistan
offt the face of the map because the terrorists HQ was based there, we
Indians have to negotiate, talk, send peace buses, and "build confidence"
with the government across our border - the Pakistanis who are
supporting the terrorists with money and explosives.

The world applauds how resilient we are in the face of our tragedy, how
quickly we go back to "normalcy". Ironically we ourselves applaud our
resilience. The fact is that the world expects us to be less than human
- hey you fella, so what if you lost your colleague, friend, partner,
husband, wife or brother, get on with it old chap, that's it my boy! No
time to mourn. No time to fume and rail at the injustice being meted
out, no time to even call the terrorists the filthiest of names, no time
to give incompetent politicians and policemen, intelligence agencies
and the powers-be a piece of our mind. (Shivraj Patil, our honourable
honourable minister said something to the the effect that we knew that an
attack was planned but we didn't know the time and place. Really! What
did he expect - a phone call from the terrorists giving him the details
of the local trains, timings and compartments in which the explosives
would be kept !)

We also have to prove to the world that we are RESILIENT. Be happy with
Musharraf's "quick condemnation" and go back to the business of dealing
with old betrayers. After all we cannot "change the region's positive
course", as LA Times' editorial put it. So what if a few hundred Indians
die - Indians who are not into big time negotiations. Indians who just
want to earn their
living and return home to their families after a hard day's work.
But well no, Musharraf and his terrorist friends will deny them the
luxury of going back to his family because en route the train blows up!
And our incompetent politicians and policemen will let terrorists do
their horrific jobs and launch a hunt post-facto...
So Bombayites died for a cause: for the peace of the region! As did
Delhi-ites last year before Diwali. As did people in Bangalore when
Pakistan-supported terrorists hit the city. As did Indian tourists who had
gone to Srinagar for a holiday....And as will many many more will
die...Wow, that's some consolation!

If you feel as angry about what's happening to us, please feel free to
pass this on. If your reaction is: "hey nothing is going to change -
this is India," feel free to delete the mail!

I will be proud to call me an Indian if India crushes so called
"foreign powers" like Isreal did, like USA did ....
