Flattening the great divide
by sachin nair on Jul 15, 2005 09:28 AM  Permalink 

Hi,
Terror attacks stem from frustration and indoctrination by fundamentalists. All terror attacks are targetted at civilians and will continue to be so. In a way this terror strikes in London have bought about a radical change on two aspects:
1. It gave a feeler of how it vulnerable they are when terror strikes, to the western world.
2. In light of the origins being traced to Pakistan, it reinforces India's decade old claim of Pakistan as a major exporter and breeding ground for fundamentalists.
While watching a BBC documentary on the ban on religious symbolisms and dress code in France, I belive that this is a mighty step in the right direction. The fundamental aim of this law is to root out walls erected in the French society and to put country first before religion. Hence anything that would reveal the religious identity in public would bring the minorities at par with mainstream thereby putting the religious divide on the backburner. If this trend is successful we could see the results paying off in another 10 years. But for it to be overwhelmingly successful this should extend to whole EU.

there are enough crazy people in india. yet we don't see terrorists from india bombing nebody. There is an obvious connection between the number of terrorists from a country and state sponsored terrorism.

Yet it is doubtful that Pakistan State would support such high profile attacks. It definitely suppports such attacks on India.

The million dollar question is Does Islam support killing innocents ? Do the terrorists get inspiration from the Koran ?

Dear indian_analyst,

It is not good to brand a religion for the deeds of a specific country. Blaming Pakistan is good but blaming Islam is not.What can one do when some people implement basic things the other way.Mr.Raman thinks that on every occasion, Quran has negatives to the positives to an issue.Well for that matter Quran is totally Contextual like the Bible, so u need to first understand the context of any sentence rather than lifting it like Mr.Raman and many other people who use these for misdeeds.Further just after Gujarat riots one should not think that Hindus are monsters bcos due to some dirty minds u cannot blame the whole community, rather u need to punish those people.What do u say.

An excellent analysis. Hope our leaders especially the secular variety open their eyes and be more realistic in not trusting pakistan in general and and the Hurriyat in particular.
