RE:Boycott

Man... such an irresponsible message posted..... Just because Osama-bin-Laden happens to be a muslim does not mean you dont watch sharukh khan movie, you don't watch irfan pathan bowl, u don't use Azim Premji's Wipro's software, You don't pride A.P.J Abdul Kalaam's invention, You don't like A.R. Rehman's Music. That doesnt solve anything

Definition of Pakistan

when created: A place where Muslims of India can live a life of dignity (yes, a nice joke). But Pakistanis openly discriminate against Indian Muslims. They will not agree even a single refugee Muslim from India.

India has a huge problem on its hands.

Gandhi made a blunder

During partition, Hindus were killed and driven out of Pakistan but Gandhi fasted to let Muslims stay in India. And now we pay the price with our lives.

You are wrong Haris Jan. This is always said about partition abt a power struggle between Jinnah and Nehru. It is not so. Jinnah was realistic when he said hindus and muslims are differnt in thought, in culture, inliving, in food and everything else. He wanted a place for muslims (and they were sizable) where they could develop according to their vision. He was realistic and he got Pakistan. The heroes of our freedom struggle were fools living ina fools paradise and all the seditious shit called "Ahimsa" of the gandhian variety propagated by Gandhi. Now in India are we able to live according to our vision and culture? Tell me? This is the effect of secularism. And all these problems we are facing today is because of the muslims boss. Pre-Islamic India never had so much of violence and uncertainity. It is all because of Islam. I hope you don't follow in the footsteps of our so called heroes of freedom struggle. The muslim leagues said Pakistan zindabad, Hindustan murdabad. The first is a reality. The second is slowly becoming reality too. Wake up man!!!

My dear Lovers of Nationalist Indians,
Good day to you.

1. Our dear friends from BJP, Akali, CPM etc have un-necessarily voted against Nuclear deal, which is directly benefitial to India, so all these guys are anti-national.
Lets chuck them out. Let Narendra Modi wrath be un-leashed on them?
Are we going to take India ahead to compete with US, EU, China or Somalia, Ethiopia, Afghanistan are our bechmarks?

My point of view is; On what basis the police have concluded Muslims as suspects? Just because its an easy escape from doing serious work?

Very sad.
Modi fanned communal tension to remain in power. Even he is not much worried about hindus-desh. Many of his home state MPs have voted against his wishes.

PLEASE STOP THIS BUSINESS OF GENERALISATION. ONE MUSLIM MAKES A MISTAKE, THE WHOLE COMMUNITY GETS THE BLAME.
THE SUPER-POWER COUNTRIES IN THE WORLD ARE DOING THIS BLAME GAME FOR OTHER REASONS, THEY WANT OIL AND CONTROL OF ENERGY CAPTIVE COUNTRIE. WHAT IS INDIA GETTING IN THIS?

THINK OVER IT.............POINT TO PODER MY FRIEND.

India's police service is not responisble enough to be handed such responsiblity...... Remember Arushi's murder case where the Inspector General (IG) declared the father as the murdrer and then CBI investigation revealed something else..... I don't wanna see innocent people like Dr. Rajesh Talvar to be booked under POTA. They might not be lucky enough to get a chance for CBI investigation

POTA was removed for political reasons.

Many leaders from Tamil Nadu were under POTA for political reasons. They had to be let out.

Now Congress tried to position itself as a protector of muslims by branding POTA as anti-muslim.
BJP gained pooitical points by saying that we are pro-hindus and favour POTA.

Its pathetic.
Its sadistic.

POTA had nothing to do with terror control measures.

POTA was a weapon to mobile votes on hindutva lines.
POTA was a weapon to settle ploitical scores.
POTA does not have anything extra that already exists in our existing anti-terro laws, except that you can arrests someone without a case for a minimum of 1 year. A grave human-rights issue.
POTA is epitome of a ploitical revenge and not a weapon to have a fool proof anti-terror law.
US has PATROIT act (like POTA) in force even today. But much safe they today. How many from 9/11 have been convicted, charged and executed???

Attacks have been averted in US post 9/11, not because of PATROIT.
Its because of the stringent measures taken, massive survielance, immigration facilities beefed up, foreigners accounted and tracked.

1. Here in India the borders are porous. The para-military at borders in India is most corrupt.
2. Here in India anyone can make a Ration-Card. The single most important doument to prove domicile.
3. Why no id-cards are issued and people tracked. As in Singapore. Everybody has i-card. No i-card no citizenship.

There are many many measures that can be taken to PREVENT and AVOID such acts leading to terror.

POTA is not a deterance, but a Salvaging measure, to digress attention from the main causes.

I agree that the entire community should not be blamed. But who funds these terrorist organizations? Which countries are involved? Surely Saudi Arabia and other oil rich countries are involved in funding madrassas for their Wahabbist ideologies. Or their minions Pakistan and Bangladesh which are spreading the same ideology. Why are the Indian Muslim organizations accepting funding from these global terrorist organizations?

Mr Raman,
You started your argument judiciously. But digresed in between.

Blaming community and (so called) funding of madarsas have no relation.
Madarsas have got a blck mark due to US cold war tactic - to throw Soviets out of Afghanistan. They needed foot soldiers who do not belong to the security/army/para-military forces in Pak. Madarsa talibs (students) were identified as a ready manpower to train and support.
It was opportunistic tendency of Narrow-minded Pak leaders to stoop low and hand-over Talibs to be trained. The Madarsas in India have no such orientation and linkages.

We in India have the tendency to ape what happens in the world.

Chitambram's speech in the lower house where he talks about China and China's vision with Nuclear Electricity. I really liked that part of the speech where he reads how China, even tho it produces onlu 2% electricity with Nuclear power now, has set major milestone to depend on Nuclear power.

Yes china is a nuclear state and can get uranium from Australia. But India can only construct nuclear plants, where will the fuel come from.

One more thing US which is so eager to get India sign this deal has not built a single nuclear power plant in past 35 years.

We have to rise above singular benefit of N-deal in electricity generation.

1. The deal make India open to N-commerce.
2. All ban related N-technology would be removed.
3. We will join the coveted few in the nuclear club.
4. India cannot become a leader, with no access to an important area calles N-club.

Please do not play with statistics to prove a wrong point. Thats what politicians have done. The N-power generation share in the world is growing,
Coal based 39%
Oil 10%
Gas 15%
Hydro 19%
Nuclear 16%
Others 1%

Lets not quote statistics to suit our biased point. Australia does not generate electricity out of Nuclear power, its their funeral. The other countries Korea, Japan, US, EU are doing it. Since when Australia has become our benchmark?

India does not generate power from oil and gas. There are only 3 sources of power in India - major Thermal coal based, Hydro and nuclear currently 2%.


Australia is the most important supplier of uranium which is the fuel used in the nuclear reactors. So if Australia says no for the supply of uranium then major supplier of fuel is lost and that is what it is currently doing. We will join the N-Club for only technology to build power plants but not nuclear weapons but this also puts our our nuclear plant under inspection which are currently the major sources for nuclear weapons of india. And these inspection will be done by IAEA the same organisation which had declared that IRAQ had nuclear weapons.

My dear Mr Sudhir,
IAEA never declared that Iraq had weapons.
They only went into series of inpections on the basis of suspicion by EU, US etc.

In fact US invaded Iraq after getting OK from IAEA that Iraq DOES NOT have any weapons capability and all identied n-facilities inside Iraq are destroyed.

The case in Iraq and India is different.

India will be (insha-allah) 2nd among countries with highest GDP in 2050. We have tp prepare for those days.

In 1980s when IT and computerisation of banks was initiated, there were series agitations that now with computers, people will loose jobs. Life is doomed.
But just the reverse happened. India is IT super-power.

by Rehaan on Jul 26, 2008 04:17 AM  Permalink  | Hide replies

If you see the trend in India and abroad about any terror, before any investigation even begins the suspects are named, without any substantiation.

1. In India blasts have happened in mandirs, masjid, eid-gahs, dargaahs, market places, etc.
2. Terror acts have happened in Congress, BJP, other parties ruled states.

Can we have the stock on the last 3 years of blasts and the suspects questioned. None have been found guilty.

There is always a huge publicity in the following days of the blasts that link them to HuJI, SIMI, al-Qaeda, LeT, ABCD, XYZ...But how many leaders of these so called organisations have been arrested and convicted. Its generally easy to round-up petty criminals and very difficult to accept that they were not connected and wrongly questioned.

My conclusion is;
1. The more un-substantiated blame is put on muslims, the more alienation would take place.
2. Police, investigation agencies have an easy accusation to make and get away with their lacklusture work.
3. Politics of blame always color the incident as communal.
4. How come for blasts in masjids, dargaah, eidgahs, muslims are blamed. Moreover when mandirs are attacked, logical blame goes to muslims. Its so funny.

I dont know about the other blasts but the blasts that took place in Hyderabad masjid was by a muslim for political gain, dont pose innocent questions. Know your comunity my brother!!! The muslims in the Old city of Hyderabad celebrate on the Pakistani victory against India. I have seen them celebrating with fire crackers. So dont say the Muslims are innocent.I will accept if you say they are ignorant about the developments in the world. I have yet to see a muslim become a fan of some other actor instead of a Khan.

Sorry to digress my friend but in response to Muslims being fans of only Khans - let me tell you in early 1980's in Kashmir - Men, women , children - all prayed for the well being of Mr Amitabh Bachchan - during the unfortunate Coolie mishap. I know it, my sister knows it - because we were in Kashmir around that time. Up until 1989 - when the cinemas were closed down by terrorists - Mr Bachachan was the number one star in this muslim majority state, then came Dharmendra, Shatru and Jeetu - older generation loved Dilip saab - but who doesn't.

We blame muslims only becoz of ur votebank, laws like pota are repealed. You know very well hatred is primarily becoz hindus are treated as second-class citizens. One mosque is destroyed, the entire political party fights it. Even I condemn. But, at the same time, Govt. is hell bent upon demolishing hindu symbols. Govt make blasphemous comments while kicking out some author who makes some stupid comments about muslims. We all know it is only becoz of this reason, the hatred grows.

All that it takes for the hatred to go away is one protest march by muslims supporting stricter terrorist laws. Until then, dont make bullshit argument about generalization etc. ... Why can't u make just one support march ???

Unfortunately muslims do nnot have the backing of strong media house in India.

Their sentments are always exploited.

1. Lot of news were in circulation that N-deal is against muslim sentiments. Which muslim leader of significance mentioned this and why?

Mayawati wanted to milk this controversy to gain some points against Mulayam. Now Mulayam had joined UPA. So Maywati targetted the muslim vote-bank of Mulayam.

Its so disgusting.
When our country will rise above this petty blame game that is spoiling the UNITY FABIC of our country.
