Haneef's episode
by krishna ganesan on Jul 25, 2007 12:00 AM   Permalink | Hide replies

The news regarding Haneef is real tragedy for any innocent man caught in paranoid security forces' radar. Any one, forget wherever he belongs, this is the tragedy that can take ones' lives out of track within a minute. You need not be Christian or Hindu to escape it. It can happen to anyone. My point is understand the humane angle of the episode and stop stereotyping.

Unrelated to this story, our high intellectual class often stereotype any inadvertant accident with women as molestation and what not... After seeing guys driving the mahindra jeep, it is certain that 10 year old girl was not molested as suggested by women groups but met with an accident.

Therefore, we must not keep stereotyping every one with one incident.

Seems you are carried away with the media, depicting Haneef as innocent and caught in paranoid. In my opinion, Haneef is well grown and is a father of a child, what I mean to say that he is not a child himself to be caught in paranoid. He must have been in his senses when executing the terrorist plan.

I think it is you who got carried away by the "INITIAL" news reports that labeled Haneef and whole of indians as Terrorists..

The same Media and the police are now saying that he is innocent...so if you believed their reports "INITIAL" reports why cant you believe their "Current" reports...unless you are prejudiced and maybe an extremist.

Mr adfasd

Do you remember the murder of Bob woolmer? If you remember the incident and media coverage correctly then it must occur to you that media and the system is not trustworthy. The instant reaction/outcry/exclamation/statement is more reliable in almost all the cases.

you did not get my point...on what basis do you say say that Haneef is a terrorist...who told you???The media right...

Your above comments say that we must believe the media....so how did you believe it the first time when they said that Haneef was a terrorist...that brings out your prejudice against Haneef and the muslim community.

This is in reply to the below post....

I do not believe in forgiving terrorists.

No religion permits the spilling of innocent blood for whatever reason...

Islam says hang anybody killing innocents, so by the same religion that the terrorists follow, they should be HANGED.

I am very happy with the bomb blast judgements...but i would like the justice to be complete by hanging the bombay rioters as well.

I do not know if Haneef is a terrorist or not but..I know that an eye for an eye is not something that is human..we have to show the world what is forgiveness..and what is greatness. Terrorist or not, let the law decide. However let us forgive the terrorist..as they do not know what is right and wrong..they are not seing the coin from our angle..all we can do is pray that GODAllahBhagwan...give them the knowledge to understand that we are HIS creation and no human has the right to distroy what HE has created...
