Squeeze their buddies in the media first
by Diwakar on Jul 13, 2006 04:17 PM   Permalink

Well said, sir! Entirely agree. Remember, this government is scared of acting against terrorists - because that would be contrued as anti-Muslim acts. We have seen umpteen cases of this - and I have no reason to believe that the Congress, CPM and the so-called secular parties will change so easily.

But the media can change - because media lives on public opinion - their biggest patrons. These terrorists have innumerable friends in the media who are quick to jump to their rescue - they are not terrorists, we are told, but victims of American imperialism. They are only retaliating against injustice. They even go to the extent of invoking religious sanction for fighting the infidels. We have apologists who are in senior positions - editors, managing editors, politburo members, lyricists, civil liberties activists - we know them we see them everyday on TV, we read their writings in leading newspapers everyday - these are the people who are misguided - they believe India should tolerate whatever a small minority of people perpetrate on its people - these are the people who say minorityism is ok, but majorityism is communal.

I say, death to these poisonous snakes in our midst!
