Secular media and the ignorant Indians
by Srini on Dec 31, 2007 05:57 PM

You hit the nail right on the spot. I was surprised at the sympathy and concern the media and people of India have shown at the developments in Pakistan.

Benazir when out of power, always spoke of reconciling and peaceful solutions, in power she was worse than most of the dictators. Precisely during her rule the incitement of jihadis,the consequent increase in infiltration and unrest in Kashmir increased manifold. Her statements in her interview with you show the poisoned mind.

Congress and Manmohan have merely rieterated, if not their appeasement policy, atleast the policy of not displeasing the minorities here. Otherwise Manmohan and his Press advisor would have given a plain condolence message without using such big words eulogising her.

The secular media sees only virtues in all her statements and acts. As ethnic cleansing of Hindus and the theory of Pandits exploiting sounds appropriate and valid for them, for them its an issue only if it happens in the reverse.

Then the ignorant populace of our country, who with a short memory, beleive in the preachings of the politicians and media. When our own brave soldiers laid down their lives fighting the very terrorists she was instrumental in encouraging there were no candle light displays, so much for the patiotism of our own countrymen.
