Open thread on attack in Varanasi*

how long are we going to tolerate this, our home minister is busy picking up colour for terror, who will fight these a**holes??

What is damning is that MMS has not other answer. This has been a well rehearsed answer since the day he was appointed as PM.

NDTV and IBN which had no qualms or hesitation in pasting Om and Trishul with a dhamaruka as background pic for reporting on cases related to Sadhvi did not find it necessary to use Crescent or green color as background for their reporting on this blast. Heck, they didnt even make it a topic of discussion on primetime.

I may be over-reacting but back in 2008, series of attacks ending with 26/11 happened over a period of time. Is this the start of next series? We do not know. With this govt, we cannot be sure that they have a strategy for such a possibility.

Now ask PC what does he call this, green terror???

I do not expect anything better from NDTV. The brand of secularism promoted by NDTV in general and Barka Dutt in particular can only be called ISlam-E-CULAR. NDTV has lost its credibility and has been in the forefront of spreading disaffection among communities and passing of views and opinions as News and facts. The sponsors would always like to avoid bad publicity; this aspect should be fully exploited to the hilt. Whoever can influence sponsors should make the sponsors to avoid certain anchors. We can collectively write to the sponsors making our case.
The good news is that NDTV has hit bad times. It is time to hit back where it hurts most. NDTV is running at a huge loss, so you can imagine how it is being kept afloat. The economic package that was announced by the govt before the elections was for the media and that too without anybody asking for it. That should explain the strong nexus between the journalists and Congress politicians. The complicity of ‘the media stars’ in the various acts of omission and commission is slowly coming out despite the media’s blatant attempt at totally blacking out the news.
I would like to bring the following links regarding the health of NDTV to the notice of your readers.

Attack on varanasi in attack on ethos of bharat.

proper way to respond to this attack is to demolish few more mosques, for each bomb blast by muslims, one mosque should be demolished, may be they will learn a lesson that way

CRUSH THEM ELSE PEOPLE WILL CRUSH YOU.

Manmohan Singh is the most able and efficient administrator. He condemned the blasts just within 24 hours. Nobody else could do that!!!

Not surprisingly, the incident has already been forgotten. Like one of your old posts on this issue says sir “chalta hai attitude” has taken over us.

The thought that it could have been me sends a chill down my spine. I cant imagine what Mr. Santhosh and his family is going through. 2 years old girl child. Girl child is treated as Mahalakshmi in a hindu house. and Mr. Chidambaram had his record ready “we deeply regret”. I say it here “the Government of India is the reason why Swastika Sharma is dead. She could have become an Einstien or a Mozart or a Saina Nehwal, who knows! Who is responsible for this loss if not Government of India.”

Remember how the whole of Israel mourned when Moshe lost his parents? When we will our people come to the realization that every life lost is the loss for the whole nation?

“Here’s how politicians come to terrorists’ aid”

Suspected Varanasi blast plotter, Dr Shahnawaz Khan, was almost nabbed after the 2008 Batla House encounter; political influence helped him evade cop net.

Who is responsible for snuffing out the life of the innocent little Swastika ?
