hey smrithi...
so many posts related to this,
and all have one common denominator, that is the anguish and the hatred, the rage and the shock...
its a political war now, rather than finding the culprits, its a blame game...we need to be helping the wounded, the ones who lost loved ones...
we need to change... the society needs to change too...better efforts to stop such attacks(god forbid, i hope there isn't another)...the time is now indeed...

I can understand the anger, but at the same time its quite obvious that everyone of us here has a role to play and we (as the citizen) have to make note of only one thing that we must not forget what took the lives of the innocents? The candle we light should burn until we accomplish our tasks to fight against terrorism.
The only people who are responsible and accountable for these mishaps in this country are non-other than some of our own politicians and bureaucrats. Their highly indifferent attitude, negligence on duty, lack of knowledge on critical situations and above all the inability to take decisions for what we see could have prevented these kind of situations at first hand. For example, the top ministers of the state are like hopeless jerks; they even don’t know how disgustingly they handle media & pass information, totally out of focus. And citizens, now have a bigger challenge to face in terms of identifying the right leadership. We must not let down while exercising ‘the power of vote’. Which means together we can make the difference and we are not helpless yet and we shouldn’t underestimate ourselves.

Do we want to blame particular communities and countries for our sufferrings, forever and ever, and just witness all this until it reaches our very doorstep?
It has reached our doorstep long back ...fear gives way only to fear ..a glance of doubt mistrust...alienation and discrimination,,,,humans everywhere are victims of these feelings, even the ones who cause it and that's where solution to every problem lies...you deny something, you neglect something and one day it comes back to you like a demon....no single individual is responsible for it....we when on fine day started identifying ourselves to tags , felt a irreplacable need for them and survival now without those things is a nightmare. and we are living that very nightmare......

Wats the use writing all this???Whats the use blogging about this issue?? What did u get by hearing what those so-called 'Leaders' of the country had to say abt it??? What did u get by watching the war on TV??? What did u get by discussing it with frens?????
According to me, its all funny... Mah brother and me were so agitated,we both felt like we were watchin an on-going disastrous Cricket test match and we kept checking the score from time to time.
It was disgusting...
The media talks only abt the Oberoi and Taj victims...Not about the CST and other roadside victims who got shot...and we listen to watever they have to say!!!!Hypocrites are we????
The so-called Leaders are ready to resign at the drop of a hat now when we question their abilities...But none of them are thinking about wat can be done in the future to avoid such things!!! Why are we like this????
What are we gonna get by voicing an opinion in the blogoshpere???
I wanna say only 1 thing in the end... Like Mah friend Smriti said- "We complain about non-availabilty of young, honest, dynamic, educated leaders to lead our country. How many of the people who actually fit that profile, would rather lead this country than run the affairs of a Multi-million dollar MNC?
Why do most parents encourage their children to become lawyers, doctors, engineers, chartered accountants? Why not something bigger? Like the Prime Minister of the World's Largest Democracy?"
In the end... its no use talking and writing... Action is wat is required here... not the words!!!!!

I cant find it in me to rant, or yell it just hurts to much. all i can think of again and again is all that human potential lost, all those lives, both of the victims and the terrorist. I wish the cycle would end.

the title just says it all.
Its right to react this way and i bet everyone in mumbai is reacting in the exact same way.
All i'd say is-this is the time for the gov to shake themselves up b4 the people make they're life hell.
-
Smriti....I share Diva anger against the hypocrisy. I'd go as far as to say that the whole system is corrupted....even if a clean guy steps in to take the helm he would soon be kicked out if he doesnt knuckle down or sucked in.
Its a vicious circle:-(.

I wanted to ask u whether u saw my comments in ur "Ads u must watch" post coz u havent replied as yet:-)

Very powerful post! I can't answer those questions too, but I'm just reminded of my favourite Gandhi quote: Be the change you want to see. I think this applies in every facet of life: you should behave in the way you want others to behave, and I think that slowly, changes for the better can happen.
You've been awarded, by the way.... :)

Very valid questions, but now we need answers and action.
I hope Smriti this anger, this rage that we are experiencing today does not fade with time. Public memory is short, and that is what I fear.
I couldn't agree more with you that the general public is equally at fault as the government. We, the people of this country, love taking the easier route by slandering the politicians, the police, etc. We always ask for our rights, never fulfill our duties.
We need to bring about a change in the society. And the time is now, or else the country will be a complete wreck pretty soon.
