The terror attacks have torn apart Mumbai city yet again and all we could do as citizens was to see the horror unfold. I believe that now is the time to seriously introspect. Only a few months back we heard a jerk called Raj Thackeray voicing out concerns that Marathi manoos were not getting enough and that his so called brave Sena can change the situation in mumbai. Where was his great Sena when all this was happening. All that was done was by the commandos who called themselves INDIAN. I am sure he was sitting in a corner of his bungalow like a whimp looking at all that was happening.
Let me not spare the other politicians who are more interested in gaining mileage from the incident. The home minister resigned accepting 'moral responsibility'. Come to think of it I would rather call him a coward who is running away from responsibility. A responsible person would have taken stern actions such that another such incident dare not happen in the country. Manmohan singh is a misfit in this kind of situation. He lacks the conviction to fight terror (in at least the way he speaks). I saw his speech to the nation and it was disappointing. I believe it is time to allow professionals to handle the areas of national security and be given absolute anonymity in doing so.
This time it was the foreigners targeted and so the attack got international coverage. I m sure that if the incident did not involve these people, none would have bothered. There would be just another "We condemn the incident and our hearts go out to all the aggrieved families" statement and that would be it. It is such a shame that we as humans can be so naive when it comes to empathizing with others.
Now the way forward.........
The police was absolutely unprepared to combat a bunch of school kids. What is wrong with the country's security. The police is paid peanuts and asked to fight for the country. We have one jerk of a government which is even not ready raise the pay scales for the country's heroes. The equipment given to these forces are below par. Look at what the ATS chief Karkare was wearing when he was shot dead. Someone in one of the news channels even claimed that in a shooting range when the helmets were tested, there were holes made in it. Our politicians are given so much security, why??? People should be asking who is protecting the innocents .... Mayawati wants a Plane for herself and was sanctioned 55 crore for this. The NSG commandos had to be flown to mumbai but did not have a plane fast enough and hence the mission was delayed by 10 hours. Surprising.........!!!there is more. Then there are politicians that try gaining political mileage even from such gory incidents. Narendra modi had no business at the Tajmahal hotel when the operation was on, but he was present there. He was the same person who was questioning the integrity of Karkare a few days back, and now was hailing him as a hero. Once the Nariman house operation was over, there was another politician Munde there. What was he trying to do there??? searching for militants in the crowds???? opportunist!!!
How many terror attacks have we seen in the USA after9/11...nil. But look at India there have been attacks again an again as if it was a alarm clock on Snooze. We are still not bothered... Now is the time to ask Questions. What has our famed political done for us. Now that Shivraj pati has resigned, it is expected that Chidambaram will take over..........but I have a problem there...He is the same person who couldn't look after the finance ministry properly, how can he handle the home ministry??? For god's sake, Give me a break...
To the bravehearts, policemen and military personnel, we owe a lot to you. It is about time we have a system like Singapore where all individuals have compulsory military training. We never know when it may come of use to the nation.
To all the people of India, Vote to the right people. I am aware that most people standing in the fray are crooks, still there are individuals who have courage and conviction to speak in the best interest of the country. Let us bring them forward. let us decide who becomes a part of the government. Let us decide what happens in our country...............
