There is nothing called Hindu terrorism.!!
by Tataghata Mukherjee on Jan 19, 2008 09:14 AM

Just like Modi, who keeps repeating that there is no such a thing called Hindu terrorists,these guy wants to rule out the possibility of Hindu terrorism FOREVER.Most Hindus have started to develop a theory that Hinduism,by its innate nature, does not create terrorists.Even if Hindus do get involved in such terror activities,its only a natural reaction to fight Islamic terrorism engulfing them. [Or they do not brandish their religion while killing people (ex. LTTE).]
Its very easy to argue that every act of terrorism on this planet is a natural reaction to an action that preceded it, and thus going back all the way, we can only blame Adam and Eve for all terrorist activities. This way the present generations can shirk all accountability
The basis for a lot of articles here is hatred (or your so called concern) for hindus and right-wing (whatever that is).
If educated Indians are good at something, I began to believe, it is sophistry. Playing with words!
I get to hear such convoluted logic all the time. Here, the commenter equates my concern with hatred and then equates hatred to terrorism to get the final result- this blog will eventually lead to terrorism. What gets missed in the whole scheme is that the very basis of this blog is fight terrorism and all forms of violence by using dialog, discussion, and bold actions, instead of resorting to propping up one terrorist organization to fight another.
