Looks like another Praful in the making. The author's views are one sided. There is a difference between an offensive and defensive action. Sometimes the defensive action could be more severe. But the fact remains that it is a defensive action. The riots post Godhra are more severe. But it was a retaliation against the offensive act at Godhra. The author has not made any mention about it. He also does not explain how the same U.S. had earlier issued a Visa for Mr. Modi's visit to the U.S.A. post Godhra when all the information were available. It is unfortunate that such articles are published even in Rediff. RG
