Though one understands that majority of muslims are patriotic, but it is a fact that some (either Indian or Pakistan / Bangladesh)Muslims are behind such terrorist activites in the country, that to for the cause of a foriegn country(Pakistan). If after such incidences Muslims are looked with suspicion to carry out the investigations, it is not unnatural.
If Muslims wish to avoid such situations, they have to be proactive and cooperative to report activities which they feel is suspiciously carried out in their locality.
There are definitely muslims behind this and other blasts. It is duty of our honest indian muslims to
help police in bringing them to justice. Once you start doing this you will not scare of police.
Only these people are spreading the rumours that police is catching innocent muslims we need to expose such terrorists who are doing anything in name of islam.
These terrorists are liar and hiding themselves as Islamic warriors.
"There are Naxalites, there are terrorist organisations in the northeast. No one talks calls them Hindus; just the organisation is blamed. The same terrorist act"
--> That's because Naxals have Muslims too. And Naxals are killing mostly Hindus. And Naxals have a different ideology. Their aim is not a Hindu theocratic state. Ppl make silly arguments. It's funny.
First, let us define terrorism. It is "The unlawful use or threatened use of force or violence by a person or an organized group against people or property with the intention of intimidating or coercing societies or governments, often for ideological or political reasons."
That is the broad idea of terrorism. Therefore, we cannot just say that terrorism is limited to Islam. What Israel is doing against Palestinian civilians, what the US is doing against Iraqi civilians, what the Indian security forces are doing in Kashmir against Muslims etc., all amount to terrorism. When Hindus attack Muslims in riots, when the police sides with them in their brutality, does it not amount to terrorism? When a suicide bomber kills a few people in Palestine, it is terrorism, but when Israeli forces carry out all sorts of unspeakable atrocities against Palestinian civilians, what would you call it then?
Terrorism exists everywhere, but it's never highlighted. It's only when Muslims carry out an attack, is it called "Islamic terrorism." What about Christian, Jewish, and Hindu terrorism?
I believe all sorts of violence should be condemned, whether by Muslim, Hindu, Christian, or whatever.

Yes no religion should be attacked!
Don't blame other religions by associating their names with the word 'terrorism'. Why should other religion be associated with the word terror if terrorists say'this is an act of jehad' .They are explicitly using religion UNDERSTOOD!
Why don't you sane people get together (you are in majority and those morons are in minority) and teach them what ISLAM actually stands for!
It seems every website is very fond of only showing one side of story. When ever there is communal problems is that only muslims are killed. Come to Hyderabad and look at the stories of thousands of Hindus who were repeatedly harrased and you can virtually find a mini pakistan in the old city of hyderabad. If you can also publish such articles of that nature I agree that Indian Media is secular.
