Until we moderates (who are hindus and muslims only at home) voice your concerns and raise our voices to such a decibel that all the voices of communalists, secularists and terrorists is drowned it....your and mine children cannot hope to live in peace. The lives of our children may end up violently as the victims of Godhra or Gujarat.
What the writer wants to rightly point out is that we have all become divided by us and them and not just only because of the secularists but more so because of the communalists as well...
Even when we hear heart wrenching tales of horror and even see live proof of it on live TV we think that its only the muslims or the hindus who are being burned and murdered even if they are innocents...
Isnt it a shame that Godhra is a part of Gujarat but we still have 2 separate meanings for Godhra and Gujarat.
These politicians and stripped us naked of our morality.
Dear...if you all really want to think in terms of us and them think it this way...In todays world there are only 2 kinds of people... 1) innocents getting violently killed and terrorised 2) criminals and devils killing these innocents
My friends if you belong to the first group then unite against the second group and fight them...actually we are in a majority so even if we raise our voices the world will be a peaceful place.

I totally agree with you, there can't be any justification to killings of human beings be it at Godhra or post Godhra riots. Does the religion whoever says himself to be a true hindu or a muslim can never justify any killings. We should not be guilty of supporting the crimes which we did not do beacuse that also makes a part of the crime. I feel sorry to see so much hatred here and that people justifying killings against fellow humans just because they do not happen to be co-religionist. Hey guys, understand one thing, there goes a saying''Never fight for your belief, you never know you might be wrong''. Religion is a person's choice; his way of living a life and no religion teaches you to kill humans. I am a muslim and still i dont wish anything bad for Mr. Modi, i just wish he realises what is humanity and what is human suffering at the hands of a fellow human being. You can't live with peace with so much hatred within you guys. Be a true Hindu and a true Muslim an speak truth for your religion--speak for love and compassion not hatred and killings.

True. Modi decided to go after innocent people rather than the culprits who killed those poor Kar sevaks.
