So! It’s been six years since Uncle Sam saw and experienced the pain of terror on their shores for the last time…..The punishment they inflicted on the perpetrators was so severe that they have ensured; at least till date that no one dares or plans any such attack on its citizens.
March 12 1993…
So! 14 years have passed since India saw its first but not the last taste of terrorism on its soil. The punishment we have inflicted on the perpetrators is so severe that Bollywood cannot release some of its unfinished movies as Sanjay Dutt got convicted. Most of the other convicts were mere puppets in the sinister terror plot. The masterminds who got away with this have by now realized that no harm is coming their way for sure…
If you follow the chronology of the terror attacks on Mumbai even when the trial was on-going for the 03/12 blasts, you would realize that India (Mumbai) has been struck at will.
The question is WHY? Why has the USA managed to keep it self safe ever since 09/11 and why are we sitting ducks.
The reason is simple, a sheer lack of will among the political leaders to see the bigger picture of national security and not politicize death.
Typical Indian reaction to subsequent terror attacks
- Call for a City/State/National Bandh to protest the inadequacy of the ruling government. SIR!!! Please grow up, or please explain how this will help.
- Walkout in the state assembly / Lok sabha / Rajya sabha. SIR!! Instead of walking out, can you please sit inside and discuss and decide how collectively you can tame this menace?
- FLASH NEWS!!! Terror Attack in Mumbai… RED ALERT in all Major cities…. Helloooo…. I don’t know about you, but I surely know Mr. Terrorist is smart enough not to fall for this
- FLASH NEWS!!! Terror attack in Varanasi Temple…. Security tightened at siddhivinayak temple in Mumbai.. PLEASE PLEASE PLEAASEEEE!!!! Hmm how many days, before the lone havaldar with a stupid metal detector goes back to his beedi smoking breaks?
I would go on and on about the way in which we react[?], but that’s not the point here. Unless and until definite punitive action is taken, we are there to be blasted and blown….
Hope this ends soon..... for us... for everyone... Prayers for the dead and victims of terrorist attacks.

I agree. First thing India needs is people who can lead the country properly. I am tired of these political alliances and useless coalition governments. They look so obviously greedy and selfish...one tends to think if they would ever be able to do any good for the country.
how do we Indians still elect them?!
