@Anupam (#175),
Will outlook render an apology for jumping the gun.
Why would they offer any apology? A lot of people still buy outlook and a lot of people who do not like outlook still drive traffic to their websites. What would change if a few “internet Hindus” feel offended?

@Gyanp

#174 that justifies the title of the post. Of course, media will not cover this with same vigor. Will outlook render an apology for jumping the gun.

The case of so-called Hindu terror gets curiouser and curiouser. The TOI reports -

“Contrary to Centre’s growing estimate that alleged Hindu extremists carried out the May 2007 Mecca Mosque blast in Hyderabad, the United States and the United Nations have held the Pakistan-based Harkat-ul-Jihad Islami (HuJI) responsible for it. ”

and,

“The world body has also listed a number of terror attacks which were carried out by HuJI. Besides the Mecca Masjid blast, these include the twin explosions in Hyderabad in August 2007 and suicide bombing of the US Consulate in Karachi, Pakistan, in March 2006 among others.”
