Forgetting Mumbai

Indian politicians have 2 problems, greed and impotence. As long as they are afflicted by these problems they will never be able to take any action even if their close family was killed.

In fact the same rudra from which the Mruthyunjaya manthram is recited contains one more prayer which apt for the occassion.
Maanas thoke thanaye maana ayushi maano goshu mano ashvesu reerishah veeran mano rudra bhaami tho vadhee havishmantho namasa videmathe

We shall offer oblations to you Oh Rudra, do not show your fury (as the kaala kala or destroyer) on our children, dear ones, on our life expectancy (ayushi) on our cattle, horses or our soldiers.

Jai Hind!

Earlier today, my wife reminded me of what she had said fifteen days ago…

NOTHING, absolutely nothing would come out of the attacks in Mumbai.

Once the attacks are over, the intellectuals will resort to their intellectual subversion and try and find fault within ourselves or our treatment of certain minorities.

The poor will start worrying about their next meal.

The middle class parents will again start worrying about their sons and daughters medical or engineering entrance examinations (or going to US for higher education).

The world will move on.

If we really had spine in our bodies and blood in our veins, we will make sure that Mumbai would never be forgotten – not least by the cowards who unleashed terror on the innocents…

But alas, we and our leaders are little better than spineless, bloodless creatures…like invertebrates…

We have no blood in our veins that will boil at the atrocity committed in Mumbai…we have no spine that would help us stand with pride.

I am not an expert in these things and many people here on this blog are better informed than me…

But why did the government not initiate air strikes against the terrorist camps in Pakistan within hours of the attack?

We knew they were linked to the carnage that was unfolding in Mumbai. And any international criticism could have been silenced by saying “We are not against Pakistan…We are only against terrorists”.

Did Obama not say that US would certainly do this if it felt it was being threatened? And did George Bush not send his troops thousands of miles away, all the way to Afghanistan after 9/11? So why should we have been on the defensive?

Why did we not counter-attack then? Why did we not declare a state of national emergency, finish off the unfinished business following the 2001 attack and take the battle into the heart of enemy territory?

Is there anyone to answer these questions?

Sadly, as I said before, we are little better than invertebrates.

She is absolutely right.

How many are committed to fight against terror. None!

Its my opinion, What I found after attack, is that we became more sympathetic towards muslims in India ( I am using these words because they played a major role dividing community in the past and helped terrorrits and boosted terrorism in many ways), we offered a chance to them to defend their religion and their book, without asking them any upfront questions to them, we gave them more space to be safe in India when they were feeling alienate and before they appear scary in the mind of Indian Public. This time they loose the ground so they have engaged themselves in war against the terror. With due respect to many Muslims who are good citizens but not many of them are there. Many muslims has a fancy thoughts that India belongs to Pakistan.

Jai Hind!

I believe all Bhaartis are just worried about today or just tomorrow. Citizens of BHAARAT became resistant to any such kind of threats. They faced it today ovecame tomorrow like mosquitoes, which became resistant to any damn medicine next year. The citizens of BHAARAT are lacking the very fundamental aspect of their culture, that what type of future (country) they are going to leave behind for their generations?
Citizens of BHAARAT selected their leaders, by voting or demoting themselves, and believes innocently that now their SUPERMAN’s can deal with this. It is not a blow to the citizens or a society but to the Government itself. So its none of the citizen’s business. This is the way the “FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS” of INDIAN CITIZEN is observed.
Lets come to the point: What need to be done that such threats never occur?
– What one does to their house that a burgler can’t get in or attack the members, when especially all the burglers know that this community is sloppy, sleeps like Kumbhkaran and don’t have proper doors?
– Firstly, Govt. need to do increase their sucurity and fix their Alert system and the citizens need to be more vigilant. Secondly, Citizens need to display a strong unity and terror to such outsiders who can’t dare to eye on their country. for e.g ISRAEL.
So if the citizens think that they don’t want this to happen again any any distant future then they need to challenge ourselves and the Govt. Rest everybody knows what follows.
I am looking for a like minded people who are ready to accept my challenge of “Creating better, strong and prosperous country” for future generations. Please stay tuned for further plans. I need to discuss these with B.Shantanu.
||NAMO BHAARTAM, NAMO SAMSKRITAM||
Looking ahead.

More than maha mrityunjaya,
its now probably time to say
“Har Har Mahadeo”

Time to ‘uttishtha bharata, yuddhaya krutanischaya’

rise, with the resolve to fight.
Perhaps we can begin with throwing nostradamus’ blue turban and his coterie of invertebrates out of parliament?
But we have voted in the opposite direction recently.

A spine, a spine, kingdom for a spine

I agree, this time we must not forget. I see terrorists on our newspapers everyday on the front page. But the heroes of Mumbai were there only for one day! We have our priorities all wrong.

I would like to share my recent experience here. As I am a practical man, I narrate it below as it happened:

Recently, I was attending a marriage of a far relative. After I reached there, I came to know that the girl is just 17yrs and the boy is 21 yrs.

A group of “mahila Samithi” rushed to the scene to stop the marriage. Most of the samithi members are “mary’s and manores”.

ACTIVIST: who is the father of the girl?

RELATIVE: He is on the death bed. He is suffering from anemia.

ACTIVIST: Who gave the right for you to arrange a under-age marriage? its illegal and crime and dangerous for the girl.

and she goes on even a lot of objections that its their private issue and she will turn major in 3 months and then they will send her to their in-laws house.

But the activist is not in a mood to listen to them.

I: Which group you belong to?

ACTIVIST: (I cant take the name of the group) ” ” which is affliated to Amnesty international.

I: Why are you stopping the marriage?

ACTIVIST: Who are you to ask? even you will go to custody if we complain.

I: So you are opposed to child marriages?

ACTIVIST: Yes

I: are you opposed for Hindu Child marriages or you even oppose child marriages in other religions?

ACTIVIST: we oppose all.

I: Then where were you when poor muslim girls were sold to Arab Sheikhs in the name of “Nikah” by Mullahs?

ACTIVIST: We are protesting but its government should take measures for proper marriages to Minority girls. (well she is not opposing child marriage but marraige to old arab sheikh. If they oppose to Muslims they will Kick their “—“)

I: So, you are opposing child marriage only because they are forcefully getting married, but not because of their health conditions?

ACTIVIST: (got frustrated) We oppose child marriage because pre-mature sex is dangerous for the girls life.

I: So what measures you took to oppose Ms. sarah paline, whose teen (16 year) daughter is pregnant and is still unmarried?

ACTIVIST: (No answer) “??????”

I: So what steps for agitation are you taking to bring Chadar Mohan (Chand Mohammad) to justice for betraying his wife and teen kids and marry Fiza (who is thrice divorced) in the name of Allah?

ACTIVIST: Its religious issue.

I: So child marriage or Polygamy is religious? is it for Hindus only?

ACTIVIST: (Slience) “?????”

ACTIVIST: But its still illegal for a minor to get married. We will complain to the police.

I: According to the latest amendment of the child marriage prevention action of 1926, it was declared that:

1. Child marriage below the age of 16 be made void. (here the girl is 17yrs and 3 months behind to attain majority)

2. The legal age for a girl to give sexual consent to be increased to 16 years

ACTIVIST: “??????”

I solmonly asked the activists to leave the place as the marriage is the last wish of a dying father who wants to see his daughter as a bride (Marriage is a permanent solution to get settled in Hindu Dharma. Unlike in other religions where they can broke the marriage by spelling 3 words or suing their counter parts on huge amounts in the name of god).

My dear readers, I request you, beg you, please stop these kind of psudo-activits to interfere in our Hindu activities and blame as barbaric. If we refer to our ancient Dharma, it was mentioned that girls should not participate in pre-mature sex and at that time the maturity period averages 16-17 years for girls. We, Hindus, have followed excellent principles and living procedures to make our life happy. These IPC is prepared by “Montague & Chimsford” who are fanatics of their religion. We dont need IPC or any such acts if we follow our Dharma properly.

Excerpts from M for Mumbai, M for Mendhar: 26/11 to 31/12 by Himanshu Jain

…Yet barely a month after Mumbai, another serious infiltration has taken place in Mendhar tehsil of Poonch.

…Ten or more terrorists are still holed up in concrete bunkers made over the last four years in these jungles. Wireless communications between the infiltrators and their Pakistani counterparts are being monitored and leave no doubt of Pakistani Rangers (Pakistani Border Guards) and LeT’s involvement in the intrusion.

…Mendhar has no issues of civilian hostages and property at stake. Hence, a full-scale operation should have been launched to flush out the infiltrators. Laser-guided bombs of mirage 2000 or cluster bombs could have been used to smoke out the bunkers. As the bunkers are inside India, right alongside the LoC, a full-scale and quick military action would have demonstrated India’s capabilities and resolve. Even helicopter gunships could have been used to clear the area within a few hours. This operation could have been used as an excuse to deploy thousands of troops along the LoC.

Tragically, Pakistan today views the UPA government as a harmless entity, or perhaps we should say non-entity! The UPA has mounted its biggest diplomatic offensive against Pakistan; it is trying to get world opinion on its side; but Pakistan knows that the UPA is SOFT and will soon forget the issue.

So Pakistanis simply ignores UPA’s international diplomacy and pushes in more terrorists across the border, just one month down the line! This is the sad reality for more than 100 crore Indians today. If India is seen as harmless and soft, rest assured we will see more and bigger attacks in the future. More Indians will die in bazaars, railway stations, hotels…

…Equally pathetic is the role of the press – the watchdog of our democracy and freedom. When the financial capital was under siege, the media covered the event graphically and debated every aspect to death. Now, a similar number of intruders have entered a sensitive border area, and granted that the same graphic visuals are not available, but a very similar operation is underway. Three security men have already given up their lives to defend our territorial sovereignty; many more lives may be lost before we recover lost ground.

So where are the TV channels? Why have they not reached the homes of the slain terrorists? Why is there miniscule coverage of the Mendhar infiltration? Why is it not being called 31/12?

And where are those who frantically lit candles all over India, abusing all politicians, and crying about the loss of comfort in their cushy lives? Why no candles for Mendhar? Is it a routine encounter; have the media and glitterati developed immunity towards attacks in Jammu & Kashmir?

We will have to be far more serious about national security. We are considered soft, even scared, because we refuse to be alert and vigilant. We allowed 11 cities to be bombed, Mumbai to be attacked, and now Mendhar.

Unless we wake up as a nation, we will be the laughing stock of the international community. Symbolic anger and synthetic protests will bring only faux sympathy and manufactured concern, and jihadis who laugh all the way to the next bloodbath.
