LETTER TO PRIME MINISTER
Dear Mr. Prime ministerI am a typical mouse from Mumbai. In the local train compartment which hascapacity of 100 persons, I travel with 500 more mouse. Mouse at least squeakbut we don't even do that.Today I heard your speech. In which you said 'NO BODY WOULD BE SPARED'. Iwould like to remind you that fourteen years has passed since serial bombblast in Mumbai took place. Dawood was the main conspirator. Till today heis not caught. All our bolywood actors, our builders, our Gutka king meetshim but your Government can not catch him. Reason is simple; all yourministers are hand in glove with him. If any attempt is made to catch himeverybody will be exposed. Your statement 'NOBODY WOULD BE SPARED' isnothing but a cruel joke on this unfortunate people of India .Enough is enough. As such after seeing terrorist attack carried out by abouta dozen young boys I realize that if same thing continues days are not awaywhen terrorist will attack by air, destroy our nuclear reactor and therewill be one more Hiroshima .We the people are left with only one mantra. Womb to Bomb to Tomb. Youpromised Mumbaikar Shanghai what you have given us is Jalianwala Baug.Today only your home minister resigned. What took you so long to kick outthis joker? Only reason was that he was loyal to Gandhi family. Loyalty toGandhi family is more important than blood of innocent people, isn't it?I am born and bought up in Mumbai for last fifty eight years. Believe mecorruption in Maharashtra is worse than that in Bihar . Look at all thepolitician, Sharad Pawar, Chagan Bhujbal, Narayan Rane, Bal Thackray ,Gopinath Munde, Raj Thackray, Vilasrao Deshmukh all are rolling in money.Vilasrao Deshmukh is one of the worst Chief minister I have seen. His onlybusiness is to increase the FSI every other day, make money and send it toDelhi so Congress can fight next election. Now the clown has found new wayand will increase FSI for fisherman so they can build concrete house righton sea shore. Next time terrorist can comfortably live in those house ,enjoy the beauty of sea and then attack the Mumbai at their will.Recently I had to purchase house in Mumbai. I met about two dozen builders.Everybody wanted about 30% in black. A common person like me knows this andwith all your intelligent agency & CBI you and your finance minister are notaware of it.. Where all the black money goes? To the underworld isn't it?Our politicians take help of these goondas to vacate people by force. Imyself was victim of it. If you have time please come to me, I will tell youeverything.If this has been land of fools, idiots then I would not have ever cared towrite you this letter. Just see the tragedy, on one side we are reachingmoon, people are so intelligent and on other side you politician hasconverted nectar into deadly poison.
I am everything Hindu, Muslim,Christian, Schedule caste, OBC, Muslim OBC, Christian Schedule caste, CreamySchedule caste only what I am not is INDIAN. You politician have raped everypart of mother India by your policy of divide and rule.Take example of former president Abdul Kalam. Such a intelligent person,such a fine human being. You politician didn't even spare him.=A0 Your partyalong with opposition joined the hands, because politician feels they aresupreme and there is no place for good person.Dear Mr Prime minister you are one of the most intelligent person, mostlearned person. Just wake up, be a real SARDAR. First and foremost exposeall selfish politician. Ask Swiss bank to give name of all Indian accountholder. Give reins of CBI to independent agency. Let them find wolf amongus..
There will be political upheaval but that will better than dance ofdeath which we are witnessing every day.=A0 Just give us ambient where we ca=nwork honestly and without fear. Let there be rule of law. Everything elsewill be taken care of.Choice is yours Mr. Prime Minister. Do you want to be lead by one person oryou want to lead the nation of 100 Crore people?
Hotel Taj : icon of whose India ?
Gnani Sankaran- Tamil writer, Chennai.
Watching at least four English news channels surfing from one another during
the last 60 hours of terror strike made me feel a terror of another kind.
The terror of assaulting one's mind and sensitivity with cameras, sound
bites and non-stop blabbers. All these channels have been trying to
manufacture my consent for a big lie called - Hotel Taj the icon of India.
Whose India, Whose Icon ?
It is a matter of great shame that these channels simply did not bother
about the other icon that faced the first attack from terrorists - the
Chatrapathi Shivaji Terminus (CST) railway station. CST is the true icon of
Mumbai. It is through this railway station hundreds of Indians from Uttar
Pradesh, Bihar, Rajasthan, West Bengal and Tamilnadu have poured into Mumbai
over the years, transforming themselves into Mumbaikars and built the Mumbai
of today along with the Marathis and Kolis
But the channels would not recognise this. Nor would they recognise the
thirty odd dead bodies strewn all over the platform of CST. No Barkha dutt
went there to tell us who they were. But she was at Taj to show us the
damaged furniture and reception lobby braving the guards. And the TV cameras
did not go to the government run JJ hospital to find out who those 26
unidentified bodies were. Instead they were again invading the battered Taj
to try in vain for a scoop shot of the dead bodies of the page 3
celebrities.
In all probability, the unidentified bodies could be those of workers from
Bihar and Uttar Pradesh migrating to Mumbai, arriving by train at CST
without cell phones and pan cards to identify them. Even after 60 hours
after the CST massacre, no channel has bothered to cover in detail what
transpired there.
The channels conveniently failed to acknowledge that the Aam Aadmis of India
surviving in Mumbai were not affected by Taj, Oberoi and Trident closing
down for a couple of weeks or months. What mattered to them was the stoppage
of BEST buses and suburban trains even for one hour. But the channels were
not covering that aspect of the terror attack. Such information at best
merited a scroll line, while the cameras have to be dedicated for real time
thriller unfolding at Taj or Nariman bhavan.
The so called justification for the hype the channels built around heritage
site Taj falling down (CST is also a heritage site), is that Hotel Taj is
where the rich and the powerful of India and the globe congregate. It is a
symbol or icon of power of money and politics, not India. It is the icon of
the financiers and swindlers of India. The Mumbai and India were built by
the Aam Aadmis who passed through CST and Taj was the oasis of peace and
privacy for those who wielded power over these mass of labouring classes.
Leopold club and Taj were the haunts of rich spoilt kids who would drive
their vehicles over sleeping Aam Aadmis on the pavement, the Mafiosi of
Mumbai forever financing the glitterati of Bollywood (and also the
terrorists) , Political brokers and industrialists.
It is precisely because Taj is the icon of power and not people, that the
terrorists chose to strike.
The terrorists have understood after several efforts that the Aam Aadmi will
never break down even if you bomb her markets and trains. He/she was
resilient because that is the only way he/she can even survive.
Resilience was another word that annoyed the pundits of news channels and
their patrons this time. What resilience, enough is enough, said Pranoy
Roy's channel on the left side of the channel spectrum. Same sentiments were
echoed by Arnab Goswami representing the right wing of the broadcast media
whose time is now. Can Rajdeep be far behind in this game of one upmanship
over TRPs ? They all attacked resilience this time. They wanted firm action
from the government in tackling terror.
The same channels celebrated resilience when bombs went off in trains and
markets killing and maiming the Aam Aadmis. The resilience of the ordinary
worker suited the rich business class of Mumbai since work or manufacture or
film shooting did not stop. When it came to them, the rich shamelessly
exhibited their lack of nerves and refused to be resilient themselves. They
cry for government intervention now to protect their private spas and
swimming pools and bars and restaurants, similar to the way in which
Citibank, General Motors and the ilk cry for government money when their
coffers are emptied by their own ideologies.
The terrorists have learnt that the ordinary Indian is unperturbed by
terror. For one whose daily existence itself is a terror of government
sponsored inflation and market sponsored exclusion, pain is something he has
learnt to live with. The rich of Mumbai and India Inc are facing the pain
for the first time and learning about it just as the middle classes of India
learnt about violation of human rights only during emergency, a cool 28
years after independence.
And human rights were another favourite issue for the channels to whip at
times of terrorism.
Arnab Goswami in an animated voice wondered where were those champions of
human rights now, not to be seen applauding the brave and selfless police
officers who gave up their life in fighting terorism. Well, the counter
question would be where were you when such officers were violating the human
rights of Aam Aadmis. Has there ever been any 24 hour non stop coverage of
violence against dalits and adivasis of this country?
This definitely was not the time to manufacture consent for the extra legal
and third degree methods of interrogation of police and army but Arnabs
don't miss a single opportunity to serve their class masters, this time the
jingoistic patriotism came in handy to whitewash the entire uniformed
services.
The sacrifice of the commandos or the police officers who went down dying at
the hands of ruthless terrorists is no doubt heart rending but in vain in a
situation which needed not just bran but also brain. Israel has a point when
it says the operations were misplanned resulting in the death of its
nationals here.
Khakares and Salaskars would not be dead if they did not commit the mistake
of traveling by the same vehicle. It is a basic lesson in management that
the top brass should never t ravel together in crisis. The terrorists, if
only they had watched the channels, would have laughed their hearts out when
the Chief of the Marine commandos, an elite force, masking his face so
unprofessionally in a see-through cloth, told the media that the commandos
had no idea about the structure of the Hotel Taj which they were trying to
liberate. But the terrorists knew the place thoroughly, he acknowledged.
Is it so difficult to obtain a ground plan of Hotel Taj and discuss
operation strategy thoroughly for at least one hour before entering? This is
something even an event manager would first ask for, if he had to fix 25
audio systems and 50 CCtvs for a cultural event in a hotel. Would not Ratan
Tata have provided a plan of his ancestral hotel to the commandos within one
hour considering the mighty apparatus at his and government's disposal? Are
satelite pictures only available for terrorists and not the government
agencies ? In an operation known to consume time, one more hour for
preparation would have only improved the efficiency of execution.
Sacrifices become doubly tragic in unprofessional circumstances. But the Aam
Aadmis always believe that terror-shooters do better planning than
terrorists. And the gullible media in a jingoistic mood would not raise any
question about any of these issues.
They after all have their favourite whipping boy - the politician the
eternal entertainer for the non-voting rich classes of India.
Arnabs and Rajdeeps would wax eloquent on Nanmohan Singh and Advani visiting
Mumbai separately and not together showing solidarity even at this hour of
national crisis. What a farce? Why can't these channels pool together all
their camera crew and reporters at this time of national calamity and share
the sound and visual bites which could mean a wider and deeper coverage of
events with such a huge human resource to command? Why should Arnab and
Rajdeep and Barkha keep harping every five minutes that this piece of
information was exclusive to their channel, at the time of such a national
crisis? Is this the time to promote the channel? If that is valid, the
politician promoting his own political constituency is equally valid. And
the duty of the politican is to do politics, his politics. It is for the
people to evaluate that politics.
And terrorism is not above politics. It is politics by other means.
To come to grips with it and to eventually eliminate it, the practice of
politics by proper means needs constant fine tuning and improvement.
Decrying all politics and politicians, only helps terrorists and dictators
who are the two sides of the same coin. And the rich and powerful always
prefer terrorists and dictators to do business with.
Those caught in this crossfire are always the Aam Aadmis whose deaths are
not even mourned - the taxi driver who lost the entire family at CST firing,
the numerous waiters and stewards who lost their lives working in Taj for a
monthly salary that would be one time bill for their masters.
Postscript: In a fit of anger and depression, I sent a message to all the
channels, 30 hours through the coverage. After all they have been constantly
asking the viewers to message them for anything and everything. My message
read: I send this with lots of pain. All channels, including yours, must
apologise for not covering the victims of CST massacre, the real mumbaikars
and aam aadmis of India. Your obsession with five star elite is disgusting.
Learn from the print media please. No channel bothered. Only srinivasan
Jain replied: you are right. We are trying to redress balance today. Well,
nothing happened till the time of writing this 66 hours after the terror
attack.
French journalist Gautier exposes Sonia’s anti-Hindu stance
French journalist Gautier exposes Sonia’s anti-Hindu stanceFor the good of India, her civilisation, Sonia Gandhi has to go and a government that thinks Indian and will protect its citizens must be voted to power One word from Her is enough to put the whole inert machinery of India’s bureaucracy and political system in full motion
IN 1898, the French writer Emile Zola wrote an open letter to the then French president in the newspaper L’Aurore, titled j’accuse (’I accuse’), where he accused the French government of antiSemitism towards Captain Alfred Dreyfus, a Jewish officer unfairly condemned for treason.Now it is time for the people of India to say openly that which many, including within the Congress, think secretly and may utter in the privacy of their chambers.
It is not about Manmohan Singh, it is not even about Shivraj Patil, the fall guy; it is about that one person, the Eminence Grise of India. She who pulls all the strings, She whose shadow looms menacingly over so many, She who holds no portfolio, is just a simple elected MP, like 540 others, but rules like an empress.
Sometimes, one’s very physical presence at the top is enough to move things, to influence the course of events. One word from Her, a glance, a frown, are enough to put the whole heavy, inert, unwilling machinery of India’s bureaucracy and political system in full motion. Sometimes She need not say anything: in the true tradition of Bhakti, Her ministers, Her secretaries, interpret Her silences and rush to cater to Her western and Christian identity.
Nevertheless, she has said and acted enough so that one day she may stand accused on the pages of History for what she must have done to India.
J’accuse Sonia Gandhi as being responsible for the tragedy of Mumbai, having emasculated India’s intelli gence agencies by stopping them from investigating terror attacks in the last four years, including the Mumbai train blasts. She has also neutralised the ATS by ordering them at all costs to ferret out ‘Hindu terrorism’, which if it exists, has wrought minuscule damage compared to what Islamic terror has done since 2004. Did the US send a warning to India that there may be an attack on Mumbai and that the Taj would be one of the targets? Were these ignored because the ATS was too busy chasing Hindu ‘terrorists’ on Sonia’s orders?
I accuse Sonia and her government of having made the NSG the laughing stock of the world. How many times did the NSG (who took ten hours to reach Mumbai) claim that it had “sanitised the Taj and that the operation was over” and how many times did a bomb go off immediately after? For the last 20 years, the NSG has guarded VIPs and has become soft. See the comments of Israeli terror specialists, who said the NSG should have first sanitised the immediate surroundings of the places of conflict, kept the bystanders and press (who gave terrorists watching TV in the Taj rooms a perfect report of the security forces’ whereabouts) out of the place, gathered enough information about the position of the terrorists and hostages before taking action, instead of immediately engaging the terrorists, and ensuring the deaths of so many hostages.
I accuse Sonia of having let her Christian and Western background, in four years, divide India on religious and caste lines in a cynical and methodical manner.
I accuse Sonia of weakening India’s spirit of sacrifice and courage, so that 20 terrorists (or less) held at ransom the financial capital of India for more than three days.
I accuse Sonia Gandhi of always pointing the finger at Pakistan, when terrorism in India is now mostly homegrown, even if it takes help, training, refuge and arms from Pakistan; of not warning Indians of the grave dangers of Islamic terror for cynical election purposes.
I accuse Sonia of being an enemy of the Hindus, who always gave refuge to persecuted minorities, and who are the only people in the world to accept that God may manifest under different names, in different epochs, using different scriptures.
I accuse Sonia Gandhi of taking advantage of India’s respect for women, its undue fascination with the Gandhi name, and its stupid mania for White Skin.
J’accuse Sonia of exploiting the Indian Press’ obsession with her. She hardly ever gave interview in 20 years, except scripted ones to NDTV yet the , Press always protects her, never blames her and keeps silent over her covert role.
J’accuse Sonia and her government of trying to make heroes of subservient and inefficient men to hide the humiliation of Mumbai 26/11. Before going to his death, Hemant Karkare, the ATS chief, was shown on television clumsily handling his helmet, as someone who uses it very rarely. Why did he die of bullet wounds in the chest when he was wearing a bullet-proof vest? Either Indian vests are inferior quality or he was not wearing one. How did the terrorists who killed him and his fellow officer escape in the same vehicle used by the ATS chief ? Why did he and his officers go into Cama Hospital without ascertaining where the terrorists were? We honour his death, but these facts say a lot about the ATS’ battle-readiness.
Will someone in the Congress, someone who feels more Indian than faithful to Sonia, stand up and speak the truth? Who said, “Go after Hindu terrorists”? Who insisted on putting pressure on BJP governments in Karnataka or Orissa for so-called persecution of Christians, when Christians have always practised their faith in total freedom here, while their missionaries are converting hundreds of thousands of innocent tribals and Dalits with the billions of dollars given by gullible westerners? Who said, “Go soft on Islamic terrorism”? Who wants to do away with India’s nuclear deterrence in the face of Pakistani and Chinese nuclear threats, by pushing at all costs the one sided Indo-US nuclear deal, which makes no secret of its intention to denuclearise India militarily?

I am sure Sonia Gandhi has good qualities: she probably was a good wife to Rajiv, a good daughter in law to Indira — and by all accounts, she is a good mother to her children. One also hears first-hand reports about her concern for smaller people, her dignity in the suffering that befell her when her husband was blown to pieces, and her courtesy with visitors.
Nevertheless, she is a danger to India. Her very presence, both physical and occult, open the doors to forces inimical to India. Even Indian Christians should understand that she is not a gift to them: her presence at the top has emboldened fanatics like John Dayal or Valson Thampu, who practise an orthodox Christianity prevalent in the West in the early 20th century, but no longer, to radicalise their flock. Indian Christians should recognise that they have a much better deal here than Christians or Hindus have in Pakistan, Bangladesh, Indonesia or Saudi Arabia. Under Sonia’s rule, Indian Muslims, too, have been used as electoral pawns. They have been encouraged to shun the Sufi streak, a blend of the best of Islam and Vedanta, for a hard-line Sunni brand imported from Saudi Arabia, Pakistan and Afghanistan.

TERRORISTS DO HAVE A RELIGION: IT’S ISLAM
Koran is nothing but a terror manual.
Anybody following it to the T becomes a terrorist by default.
I could not help laughing when I saw the way several dignitaries condemned the terrorist activities in Mumbai. The NHRC chief while condemning the incident said that terrorists do not have any religion and that this act should should be condemned by all.
This is a great irony. Terrorists do have a religion. And it is Islam. Take the names of the terrorists. They are all Muslims brainwashed by a terror manual called Koran.
Koran is nothing but a terror manual. it’s aim is to create Dar-ul-Islam — where the entire world is full of Muslims and nothing but Muslims. How does one achieve that?
The Koran tells the faithful to kill the infidels wherever you find them. The Koran tells the faithful to strike terror into the hearts of the infidels. That is what these terrorists are doing. Striking terror. And when they are doing so, they are just following the Koran.
So don’t say terrorists don’t have a religion. These terrorists are just ordinary human beings like us who are brainwashed by a terror manual called Koran. So this Koran should be banned in the first place because it provokes jehad. And Jehad is nothing but killing the men and taking the women.

This is what the Jehadis have done all along. And this is what they will continue to do unless we put an end to the terror manual called Koran and the Hadiths.
By the way, many Hindus were happy that the ATS chief was killed in the encounter. Because he was the one who allegedly tortured Sadhvi Pragya at Congress behest. He was the one who threatened to kill Col. Purohit in an encounter although many of his friends say that he refused to succumb to Congress pressure to fabricate evidence against the Sadhvi. I am not very sure about it.

However, one thing is sure. Now nobody will preach pseudosecularism to us Hindus since the targets were foreigners. Remember, the colonial pseudosecular mind has an inferiority complex when it comes to white skin.
Tailpiece: The Bihari bufallo Lalu Prasad Yadav has blamed Modi and Advani for Mumbai terror. But this buffalo is a darling of our pseudosecular media because he arrested Advani during the Ratha Yatra. The Indian media has a great buffoon for company.
