cautious sympathy or silence required
by balamurali ramachandran on Dec 27, 2007 11:34 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

Many of our Indians may remember at least from media that she (Benazir bhutto) is one among the many responsible for india's problems with terrorists in punjab and kashmir.India lost to the order of 10,000 citizens and several thousand jawans including former iron lady Indira Gandhi to terrorism.Being an open enemy of India only weak and chicken livered politicians can heap praise to her.We indians should be sorry for her but need not be sympethetic. Our politicians should express their stand are they with our enemies or they can be sympethetic and at least provide some relief to our own brothers who are dying in kashmir, punjab and naxal infested areas.

She had raised the Kashmir issue in the Islamic conference as the Paki PM and returned back empty handed as none of Iran Iraq had anything to do with her Kashmir greivances and none wanted to hamper long standing business relations with India. Iran and Iraq were least concerned even when Babri Masjid was razed in India.

we need to respond with grace to a statesperson who is deceased in such a violent manner. so whats wrong if our PM responded in a decent manner.

we have lost perspective.

Our PM should have condemned the hanging of Saddam hussain a year ago, in same manner which it didn't. Where benazir had facilitated terrorism against India, saddam supported India on it's stand on Kashmir in Global paltform.

responding to an enemy with grace is not overtly praising that person.
perhaps you wont understand.Only people who lost their kins in terror (kashmir terror) will understand.Ask a pandit from kashmir. He will make you understand

People fail to understand the implications of this heinous act. These terrorists have spread their tentacles in India, Bangladesh and Nepal. They will celebrate their success today, they will be encouraged by it, and God knows when and where they will decide to strike again. I do not see any light at the end of this bloodied, dark and long tunnel. Nor do I see any reason why we should not condemn this act, per se.
